    Tinkers Construct with Gregtech

    Try running idfix minus. I'm running a private server with gregtech, tinkers' construct, and roughly 140 other mods right now without any multi block issues. http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1928632-164smpforge-idfix-and-idfix-minus-mods-for-resolving-id-conflicts/

    What's the best use of buildcraft fuel?

    11 MJ/HU is my attainable max 1.5.x RC boiler efficiency. If you don't believe me I linked a modified version of the script from the post I linked to in my post (that you also referenced). Good settings are low number of ticks (less than a thousand) and high starting temperature (within a...

    What's the best use of buildcraft fuel?

    Well (11-9)/9*100% = 22% That's a pretty sizeable bump in efficiency. As you say though that only matters if you're using it. It's good for things like frameship miners. On my unhinged server I had multiple quantum tanks for storing steam (though even those were filled pretty rapidly). I'm...

    What's the best use of buildcraft fuel?

    The RC boiler is hard to compete with when it comes to BC power. With MFR's oil generator you can make oil but has a high energy cost. Coupled with a distillery to make fuel you can make net energy gain but there are better methods even though fuel burned in a 36 boiler is hands down the most...

    Would you build this?

    Why not add a PFC module in every generator/user of power and skip the server calculations? :p I only say this because it would be really, really cool to have to actually sit down and work out a grid rather than today's "I have power, I have cable, I have machines, everything works." Load...

    Request Suggest mods for creation here

    You can just make such cool machines! 2.5 million blocks an hour? That dwarfs the scale of any project I've ever done. Also command blocks seem impractical to build with. Plus they're op only unless I'm mistaken. Edit: Apparently there is a mod that accomplishes this called Redstone in...

    Request Suggest mods for creation here

    I missed the boat on frameships. I thought ProjectRed might have something similar to RedPower's frames but it doesn't. I suggest a mod that allows movement of other blocks and entire "frames" (connected blocks of a specific type). You can make some really, really cool things with it and...

    Lost in Gregtech/IC2 x

    Look at Nonotan's signature in the link above. The link called "dealing with hard mode" is a great cheat sheet when you're lost. >Does Greg's Plate cutting/bending machines and Wiremill cancel out the Metal Former ? >The metal former is still a WIP from what I understand. I think the metal...

    What's new in modded minecraft today?

    I wasn't reading the forums around the time that gregtech was dropped from ftb but it seems like an emotional issue for a lot of people. From what I can read on some stickies the reason it's not included in any packs is because of some "malicious code" that would cause client crashes. I'm...
