    Massive ressource income?

    For DW20's mining well setup, I use the current Ultimate pack, which has frames. And tesseracts play well with frames. Also, His setup uses enderchests, which requires him to handle the rate of incoming items (by adding more import buses) and overflow (by making the turtles wait until they can...

    Massive ressource income?

    Hmmmm...you're right about the obsidian part. I've never had that problem, as I mean in a Mystcraft age. The "Chunkinator" (as I like to call it) is actually 256 block breakers attached to a 3-axis inchworm drive. You mine downwards, move back up to a certain height (to avoid obstruction)...

    But…but…but... Mining is good. Quarrying is niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. (Yes, I mine the Twilight Forest too)

    Massive ressource income?

    Cheapest will be turtles. With MiscPeripherals, you don't need diamonds for mining turtles. If you're after efficiency, it doesn't come cheap. You will need to scale. I play on the Ultimate pack, and here are the things I've done: The Chunkinator - a 16 x 16 RP2 frame quarry. Obliterates an...

    Good Starter Power Sources (Ultimate)

    For starters, trees are your best friend. Turn wood to charcoal by burning them, then use them in either IC2 generators or steam engines. Once you have enough resources, build some infrastructure and automation. Xychorium soil + MFR tree farms will provide you a good source of sapplings and...

    My quarry is OP, where do I shove all my stone?

    Deep Storage Units if you have MFR. Then feed them to recyclers later if you wish.

    The most important question is... Can I mine it?

    Ender chest thief.... [Mindcrack]

    This might work: 1. Kill enderdragon. 2. Get dragon egg, and craft a Dragon Energy Siphon. 3. Setup the energy siphon and the dragon egg so it produces EU (make sure to put this in an well contained and secret area!) 4. Cheat in 3 more dragon eggs and 3 Dragon Energy Siphons, and put them into...

    Server prefers a Quarry over RP2's Tunnel bore, Any good set and forget mining machine?

    Here's something to give you an idea. Disclaimer: the parts of this frame quarry is NOT my original design. I did make some modifications to the original design in order to cater to my needs. The 3-axis engine used here is based of my favorite design: the EG-Drive Mk 6.4. The frame for the...

    Server prefers a Quarry over RP2's Tunnel bore, Any good set and forget mining machine?

    Best compromise is to have BC quarries moved around by a frame machine. RP2 bores are laggy because it does a ton of things. Your next problem will be how to deploy and undeploy the quarries. You can't move the frame machine when the quarries are deployed.

    Enchanting with Turtles

    XP turtles + ME Interface = best autoenchanting setup. Have your ME interface export a book. Then have an XP turtle sit on top of it, and turn on autocollect xp. Have turtle check every few seconds its current level. If turtle is at level 30, grab book from ME interface, enchant, and put the...

    Buildings made of purely Xycraft decorative blocks?

    I started this thread as I'm attempting to make something purely out of Xycraft. And I need some opinions about this. I like Xycraft from a functional perspective. It doesn't allow mobs to spawn, allowing me to make rooms that have less light. But from an aesthetic perspective, it's a...

    Buildings made of purely Xycraft decorative blocks?

    Is it just me, or is it really difficult to look for blocks that would look good with xycraft?

    Has anybody built one? Give us some screenshots! And if you don't use Xycraft decorative blocks in your builds, why?

    Why do people hate Greg?

    I don't hate it, because I had too much resources when I started playing around with it (upgraded from Direwolf20 pack to Ultimate). But I definitely won't touch GT if it wasn't for AE. Crafting GT stuff is just too damn tedious. The first time I ever made a Gravisuit, it took me an hour of...
