    Overheating computer help!

    Either that SpeedFan is misinterpreting the provided thermoresistor readings or your thermoresistor has screwed the pooch. Try using HWMonitor or something similar (it's pretty obvious SpeedFan is not reading some stuff right as it says your 12v rail is 3.58V... which is not possible; well it is...

    {FIXED} Hacked Account / Better Passwords.

    I can't agree more with the method if I tried (and it's been mentioned) -> http://xkcd.com/936/ Personally I throw a number in there or two that's pretty common in my life (never a birth/wedding/death date or something... something arbitrary that only has meaning to me). If you need a MC...

    Help me find what's missing from the wiki...

    Actually the only stuff we have in atm is the start of the Getting Started guide and a handful of blocks. If you want to c ontribute sign up for an account on the wiki... you cant create new articles but I think we can coordinate something so you can submit conyent and one of us can post it as...

    Help me find what's missing from the wiki...

    I'm not even quoting all that ;) Liquid Volume per Tick - Definitely a great idea. We really should be making a list of "common" things that each mod does and a comparison between them. Off the bat I got... Liquid Volume per Tick (I'm sure there's a better technical term) Item Stacks per Tick...

    What's on your desk?

    Sager gaming laptop, Razer mouse of some sort (it has lots of buttons), and some Mr. Clean w/ Febreeze... I'm supposed to be cleaning :rolleyes:. Popped my hip out though so I get to take a break! Yay!

    Chunk loading OFF for quarries ?

    Forge gives an example for mod specific settings; it's located in forgeChunkLoading.cfg If you want to disable Buildcraft quarries from chunk loading, you would add this above the defaults area of the config... BuildCraft|Factory { # Maximum chunks per ticket for the mod...

    Help me find what's missing from the wiki...

    I always put Factorization where I can. Thaumcraft... Extra Bees... I'd put it on the main page if it didn't look so silly and Jaded wouldn't hit me so hard. Caution: Previous statement may have been full of sarcasm. On a related note, added all that to my list. Jinbobo will probably put it on...

    Help me find what's missing from the wiki...

    Hmm... okay.... Shouldn't be too difficult to include on mod pack pages... just note that some ores are configurable so YMMV on some SMP servers. Argh, sublist! First item shouldn't need to be pack specific, as most of the time I don't think it gets touched in the config (disclaimer: I tend to...

    Feed The Beast - Redpower and 1.5.x

    Don't forget "When It's Ready™" (a holiday for many fan boys). Has anyone figured out Valve Time yet? I think it corresponds to HL2 Episode releases... but then that means it could be variable/elastic and causes all sorts of headaches. Where's the Doctor when you need him....

    Help me find what's missing from the wiki...

    I'm in the process of editing and formatting the IC2 Getting Started guide now. Sorry I didn't see this one earlier; after I get done with that I'll move over to RP2 and finish my own CC guide (which is about 50% done, gets one moving with it at least).

    "Minecraft can't keep up!" message

    Are you running an SMP server on your comp and playing or are these internal server messages? Something 'bad' could be happening, like an infinite loop in a ComputerCraft block... items looping or backed up in a pipe/tube system, etc.

    TickThreading - concurrent entity/tile entity ticks and other optimisations

    Giving this a try to get around some bottlenecks, but I've noticed that from 709 on all passive entities (cows,chickens, tamed dogs, tamed cats, pigs) are removed from the world on load. Tried with about every build that would run from 709 to 717 and fresh copy of world, same result. Even tried...

    Essential mods/Mods you can go without

    Currently using DW20 pack on my server and the only mod I could say is not used all that much is Factorization. IC2 sees less use than it used to on older mod packs, but many of us keep it around for the turtle charging stations and armor (kids seem to love making nuke plants and compressing...

    Computercraft: Terminating a program

    using parallel.waitForAny() and making a quit function for your program is always a good idea ;) Here's a very rough example, there are some quirks to it but it should work 99% of the time (unless the other functions somehow hang the program). quit = false function quitProgram() local...

    Any way to stop Magmatic Engines from overheating?

    If you want to use pipes, I would suggest gates. You don't have to use a lot or even use the pipe wire system; a gate on cobblestone support pipe can emit a redstone signal that red alloy wire picks up... just set the gate to emit when the conditions "Has Work" or "Can Store Energy" are met...

    Turtles and fuel...

    Lava ftw, although I've changed to charging stations of late just to make my life a little easier on the routine/local stuff but for chunk loading turtles I usually have mining out large tunnels and whatnot (I forget what some are doing... I'm sure the other players appreciate that) I have them...

    Teleport pipes , are there any yet ?

    If one right-clicks the 'latch' of the Ender Chest with a diamond in their hand, the chest becomes 'private'; the user can now select from any of the 4096 color combinations without worrying about accidentally tying the chest to someone else's (or having someone stumble upon theirs). There are a...

    Chunk loading OFF for quarries ?

    Yes. We did this on a Tekkit server with relatively good success (only 1 chunk loader 'roamed'; more on that later). Admin would manually place the block (usually in creative) after receiving the raw materials, then the block would be protected to prevent the player from moving it/hiding it. Of...

    Private Packs: How Do I Make One?

    If you are a friend of SirSengir or know him, yes you can if you ask (FTB has it). Otherwise, the terms are pretty explicit in his MCF post (TL;DR is you can use it if you distribute in a way that only your playerbase can get to it... so probably not via FTB Launcher): KingLemming/TeamCoHF...
