    Does Size Matter? ME Drives which do you prefer?

    I typically start off with 1k drives, then upgrade to 4k drives for the common stuff. Very rarely will I create drives larger than that. I will normally void stuff like cobble and dirt if they over fill a 4k drive as I can always produce more if needed. Most of my production and processing...

    I Derp, You Derp, We all Derp, What's your's?

    I was trying to craft a rune in botania. Mind you this is a rather new mod to me, but I had played with it a bit about a month ago. I place down the altar, point my mana spreader to it, and come back in a bit after the mana was all sent. The tooltip shows it has received all the required mana...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I noticed the thaumcraft magic biomes and taint biomes weight are still at their defaults of 5 and 2 respectively. Any recommendations on where to up these to to get them to spawn?

    Gregtech veins - How to find them?

    I had been doing this, just having horrible luck. I occasionally would stumble upon a cave system or ravine and do a bit of spelunking. I did often find other veins doing this, and could mark off chunks I didn't need to vertical mine... I also found small tin ores in the process, so I have...

    Gregtech veins - How to find them?

    I ran off about 2500 blocks away in a wide arc, and looked at anything that even remotely looked like it might contain some exposed stone. Most of the stone that was in the right Y level had other veins in it (I must have found a half dozen or more gold/magnetite veins). I had absolutely no...

    How do I uncover Wand Focus: Warding in my Thaumonomomomomicon?

    Have you gotten a nether star yet? I know the warding focus requires one. Not sure if it gets unlocked when scanning I've never killed the wither yet myself, so I can't confirm.

    Gregtech veins - How to find them?

    I guess I will have to keep exploring then. I've searched the outside of the rock mountains completely, and haven't found any. I have found quite a few exposed veins of lignite, magnetite and others, but no tin. I'll see of I can get lucky generating new terrain that has exposed stone. I...

    Gregtech veins - How to find them?

    I know it has been a couple weeks, but I'm having the same issue. I for the life of me cannot find any casserite/tin veins. I think I have found every type of ore vein except the tin I need to really get going. I'm about 1/2 way through building the bronze blast furnace to make steel. All...

    Thaumcraft 4.2 Node Bullying Questions

    Hmm. That is a very good hypothetical question that I will leave completely unanswered except to say that I would make sure that doesn't happen. I have successfully had 6 nodes (out of the 8 of a 7x7x7 square) feed a main one without any issues, and allowing the "bullied" nodes to fully...

    ETHANOL HELP

    You could put the logs through a coke oven and convert to charcoal along with creating creosote oil. It wouldn't create a whole lot of creosote oil, but paired with your ethanol, it could help. Based on 1.5.2 version of railcraft, it took 48 coke ovens to produce enough creosote oil to fuel a...

    looking for a server

    You probably don't want your actual email in the forums. When it gets crawled by bots, your email address will get added to the spam lists. A PM would be better used in this case.

    What pack are you playing right now?

    It's not a bad mod, it's just very Gregorius. Everything is set around his ideas of balance, and he changes recipes of pretty much everything to balance his views. It is more or less a total conversion of Minecraft. It has tiered progression. In the beginning, you have manual tools which...

    What pack are you playing right now?

    I just started playing Beyond Reality off the ATLauncher. It is balanced around GregTech hard mode. I had to set up a local server to play single player... It's a bit much for my computer to fulfill both roles. It also has botania, and thaumcraft for those that need the magic... I haven't...

    Holy Mother Of All Oil Fields

    Do you have railcraft? You could just haul it by train.

    Mods that fit a Steampunk or Gaslight theme

    I actually just read the suggestion thread. I haven't actually played with FSP yet, so I wanted to get an idea of its current capabilities before I go off suggesting things. I have a few ideas that I will be posting, but first, sleep. :confused:

    Mods that add Decorative Stone via worldgen.

    I believe Underground Biomes Constructs produces different rocks in different areas. It also gives quite a few different color palates to choose from. This is the 1.7 version of the original Underground Biomes mod...

    Mods that fit a Steampunk or Gaslight theme

    Here is a list of various Thaumcraft add-ons. I wasn't familiar with all of them, and not all of them are updated to 1.7, but it has some that might flesh-out the thaumcraft side of things. http://thaumcraft-4.wikia.com/wiki/Add-ons - I'm sorry if this isn't the FTB wiki, but it was at the top...

    Mods that fit a Steampunk or Gaslight theme

    It's a nice list so far. I haven't played with it yet, but Automagy for thaumcraft looks like it should fit right in with the contraption aspect of Steampunk. Steel Industries looks more or less like it is a way to get steel into the pack for tinkerer's construct tools. Out of curiosity, what...
