    Applied energistics

    Very cool. I shudder to think of what it does to game balance, though...I think the power requirements might be more balanced if they were ~10x their current value. Pro tip for others: you can use the threshold-detector-whatever-it's-called (the one that emits a RS signal when there's a...

    Terrafirmacraft Coming to FTB!?

    ooh, TFC coming to FTB? I remember seeing this mod a few months ago, but never got into it due to install BS. now that it's going to be in FTB...I think I'll have to give it a try.

    [16x] The Painterly Addon Pack!

    update on thaumcraft texture info: the magic mirror + hand mirror, mirrored glass, and crystal capacitor are missing. Does anyone know where the item textures for TE are stored? I can't find them, and I was going to try updating the TE ingots to the new style

    [16x] The Painterly Addon Pack!

    There area a few missing rail textures in the bottom-left of the tracks texture file, as well as one in the top-center underneath the intersection tracks. IDK about TC3, I didn't notice anything. on another note, does anyone know the parts of paragon's pack that are used for compatibility...

    xycraft

    Better question: Why did you take the time to bring this thread back to the top, just to rant at the OP (who did nothing wrong BTW)? Nobody's posted in it for almost 4 weeks. And since you didn't read the thread (else you would already know this): Nobody was complaining. the OP was just asking...

    I think they should add

    I think you should talk about which mods to add in the "suggest mods for FTB" thread

    Regarding tesseracts: does anyone else think this is silly?

    the problem is IIRC kinglemming was still trying to decide on a good way to incur losses on item and liquid tesseracts. I think having them require power would be nice (Energy tesseracts wouldn't, as they're using the power transmitted directly rather than taking it in from an outside source)

    [Poll] Do you prefer TE or IC2? Why?

    Right, but you don't get rich slag with every ore. I couldn't say for sure. I think I like TE more for the convenience of not having to set up a huge system to do some level of autoprocessing, but I don't really like the MJ power system (though I think part of that is that before TE I haven't...

    Railcraft Steam Turbine - EU production

    UUM isn't the only part of the process, though. the turbine blades are made of steel, which requires the blast furnace and either coal-coke or charcoal, and it requires the energy necessary to smelt the iron ore from UUM into iron (and presumably macerate it before smelting). So...in other...

    Thaumic Bees Nodeify

    One of the thaumicBees traits that you can get gives the bees flux as their flower choice, and the bees create crystallized aspects and remove flux from the environment. the crystallized aspects give one of that aspect, and eight of them surrounding a phial will give you an essentia phial of...

    Spawn proof blocks which look like smoothstone?

    smoothstone microblocks, possibly?

    How to get a lot of Stone Bricks

    Arbitrarily large amount of lava. how's that? And yeah, I think just extruding smoothstone and autocrafting it is a good idea. In DW's SMP series I think the system he had set up feeds the bricks into an item tesseract to be accessed from anywhere, which is a nice idea IMO.

    Why i hate Xycraft

    hmm, interesting how removing worldgen makes the world generate faster. it's almost as if the computer doesn't have as much stuff to do.

    well, I assume chests in the generated area of the world.

    The best blocks, aesthetically, for building a factory?

    It depends on what you're trying to make it look like. if you want it to look like an industrial-era factory, go with bricks, stone bricks, etc. if you want it to look more like a modern/semi-futuristic factory, go with basalt, smoothstone, wool (or other colored blocks, maybe colored...

    5000 eu/t Challenge

    This is probably something else to consider. the massive EU requirement from the matterfab was balanced around the idea that people will be setting up systems to AFK or run all the time and get a huge reward from that. when you're playing SSP without the ability to do that, though, the huge cost...

    5000 eu/t Challenge

    Since you say you can't AFK, I think your best option is to head off to the end and try to find some iridium there...As for generating power, nuclear reactors are probably your best bet for high-output.

    Can Apple Oak Sapling be used for Orchards?

    the new multifarms convert saplings into forestry-saplings, so that they can't be bonemeal'd (which seems kind of silly IMO but whatever)
