Cheers guys, I'm already subscribed to Etho and Doc but I didn't know they had tutorials, will definitely check them out along with xisuma and Sethbling.

So, I'm a big noob when it comes to redstone. The only two "builds" I've done are the double sticky piston door and a wheat farm (the one that holds water with pistons and release it). That's about it. Lately I've been thinking I'd like to start messing with redstone a little bit, mainly with...

Out of thin air yes, but the amount of time one needs to kill monsters and get the good spawners (1024 mob kills) is quite a time-consuming effort. So you either go hunting or caving for days in order to get the 1K kills or try to find vanilla spawners to absorb 200 souls at a time. Personally...

Dude I've found several blocks of ice in the ocean and I too thought it was an error! Damn I don't know to find them now...

Rap is not music, Its listeners too lame, Metal is awesome, Guitar riffs to claim! Yeah, I cannot rap. And most importantly, I cannot rap in English!

Well, it's only a matter of time for Greg to change Thaumcraft recipes...

In my mind, an exploit is deliberately taking advantage of a bug so as to jump ahead in the "process", while a contraption is actually building the process.

I think this is a wonderful idea, it would nicely accompany the charts in the Pack Comparison thread. Are you intentionally not mentioning Lite, TechWorld and Magic World, since the custom ones you mentioned are mixes of them all?

Is main ore generation different amongst the main tech FTB packs (lite, techworld, ultimate)? I want to create a custom tech pack but I don't know whether to go from lite and start adding mods or go from techworld and start removing mods. By main ore generation I mean tin, copper, silver, lead etc

I just remembered, there's this thread from Velotican who's made an Easy and Brutal config for GregTech. I guess it's the easiest workaround for now?

And there's Techworld which also Hard GregTech. At least make that Easy.

Overkill or not, I'm going there all guns blazing 'cause I've never killed it before :P But I'll probably panic and die a horrible death hahahahaha I think all I need is the flying spell from Ars Magica along with a couple long range spells and many mana potions... When I manage to kill it using...

Can you explain what you mean, both for trivialization and essence system. I haven't played much with Ars Magica and I've barely scratched the surface of the mod. I guess you think it's supposed to be played on its own?

I've never beat the Dragon yet :P But I'm not going there unless I craft the Thaumcraft wands of Fire and Electricity, increase as much as possible my Ars Magica levels so as to have MUCH mana and MANY spells and finally craft some Xeno's Reliquary stuff to help me with the killing. Do I seem...

Once Ars Magica gets included in Magic World, I'll start using the launcher instead of my custom MultiMC version. But AM is under heavy development, last time I checked Mithion was still messing with world gen and other crucial sections of the mod, isn't "stable" enough to be included. But it's...

If you're playing Single Player, put it to Peaceful. If you're on a server, ask some other player to get them for you. Or get/borrow some uber-sick-diamond gear and head over there.

My approach to modded Minecraft is actually playing Vanilla with the most content of the mods I can. I play with magic mods right? Mainly because I don't really like heavy automation and I suck at redstone. So, let's take Thaumcraft. I want to research everything in the Thaumonomicon and...

That's kind of implemented in Ars Magica, there's the Dark Nexus which captures mobs and disintegrates them into energy for use in all sorts of stuff.

Hoppers in vanilla aren't useless. Some people just don't want to play with mods, there's nothing we can do about that. With hoppers in vanilla they can stack stuff to melt. Hell, even I in my magic mods can stack stuff to smelt without adding BC or whatever mod adds hoppers. And let's not...

Mithion currently doesn't allow Ars Magica to be part of any modpack (check the mod's MC forum thread).
