    Thermal Expansion Question. now Integrating Buildcraft.help.

    BC pump works fine on fluids other than Oil and Water. Ender-Thermic Pump works in all dimensions on all fluids as well.

    [Mod] Planter Helper - Plant crops faster

    Basic planter seems to be causing a client crash if the item to it's right is not plantable. Otherwise seems to be working great with Magic Crops. Nicer than Seed Packets because it only uses as many seeds as there is space for. The Advanced Planter allows for one-click replanting of standard...

    [Mod] Planter Helper - Plant crops faster

    Will it support mod plants? This is a great utility idea, especially the top-tier planter. I'd like to use it for easy replanting of my Magical Crops fields.

    ATG and Hills

    I said to adjust it upward for flatter. 1.5 seems like a good setting to get more vanilla-like plains. I liked to split the difference, as 1.25 gives me good blotches of flat-ish land that can be easily landscaped into usable while still feeling like the default ATG.

    ATG and Hills

    If you want more flat and less slope, adjust the ATG config option for HeightNoiseScale higher. Wanna see something hilarious? Setting it to something nuts like 0.3.

    What are your thoughts on renewable energy?

    I love the idea of setting up a renewable energy system. I just wish there was less focus on tree farms. It seems, because of the ease of turning logs into power and generating infinite logs, that there hasn't been much innovation in that space recently. TE's Reactant Dynamo and the upcoming...

    Nether lava pumping and energy

    You should adjust that. They are far superior for your world and server to regular pumps when collecting lava, to the extent that I disallow Buildcraft pumps in the Nether entirely.

    FTB and Forge - Curse Partnership.

    I want to weigh in on the positive side here. Curse has been a fantastic company for my WoW addon needs. Their addon manager continues to be fantastic. Anecdotally, myself and 39 friends who all used the Curse addon manager for YEARS were never once infected with malware through Curse. There...

    Is it Possible?

    As far as lava goes, TE3 could do as well with a device to generate Netherrack as with an Ender Thermic Pump alternative. Just keep the power costs low enough that producing a bucket of lava is less energy than that bucket can produce. As far as moving fluids, some sort of interface between...

    Tinker's Construct Weapon/Tools - Simple and to the point.

    Can't say for certain, haven't investigate weapons the way I have the hammer. If I can get 5 hearts of damage, Looting III, and Flux or Electric, I'm satisfied. Splintering follows the same idea as Stonebound, and you only get 252 extra durability with Thaumium over Cactus for a small sword...

    Tinker's Construct Weapon/Tools - Simple and to the point.

    Cactus rods add a fair bit of damage at lower durability. There is no limit on Redstone. You can drop 450 on an all-Paper Hammer, for a Mining Speed of 38. It does have diminishing returns, such that the Stonebound II from the Handle is worth more than another 50 Redstone. Otherwise I'd...

    Tinker's Construct Weapon/Tools - Simple and to the point.

    Right, but at that point you can have 250 redstone on the Thaumium and Paper hammer. Cobalt Head, Cobalt Plates, 150 Redstone, Silky, Flux, Speed 21 (before Stonebound) Cobalt Head, Thaumium Plate, Paper Plate, 250 Redstone, Silky, Flux, Speed 24.66 (before Stonebound) The Paper and Thaumium...

    Tinker's Construct Weapon/Tools - Simple and to the point.

    Test it out sometime in a creative world. Cobalt Head, Thaumium Plate, Paper plate, 150 Redstone gives more speed than Cobalt head, Cobalt Plate, Cobalt Plate, 50 Redstone, or any other combination of using up both plates, the first modifier, and the "extra" modifiers you get from Paper or...

    Tinker's Construct Weapon/Tools - Simple and to the point.

    Depends on what mods you run with it. For a hammer, from extensive testing, you'll get the fastest possible mining speed with an Ardite handle, Cobalt head, Thaumium plate, Paper plate, and a big ol' pile of Redstone. You are trading durability and cost of redstone for that speed. For my...

    What Would Make MFR Balanced?

    All this talk of difficulty and balance, based around creating infinite power from a tree farm. Stop burning trees! Heck, give us a mod or config option that makes wood products not work as fuel. If you really need the mod nerfed because you can't not use it, then develop some willpower.

    Blood Magic Discussion [1.6]

    Loving the mod so far. Lack of documentation on mechanics is kind of a bummer. An in-game manual, or some form of NEI integration would be excellent. Needing to pop out of the game to refer to a forum page and youtube videos for structure and blood altar help is jarring. On the same note, some...

    [1.7.10] Engineer's Toolbox - Now with programmable sockets!

    I must be missing something. I'm trying to configure an Energy Output to a specific EU voltage, but they no longer seem to be configurable? There are no indicators, and using the unlock mode does not display any indicators. *edit* Just saw the forum post that Energy Output is no longer...

    Tree Breeding (Spoilers)

    I never ended up trying to breed apples onto another tree. After discovering that I could cross-breed two trees of the same species with different traits, I got to work. I use Aura Bees from the Thaumic Bees mod for their Maximum pollination and the 15x13x15 area. This is on the current...
