    Redpower going the way of Nandonalt's Mods?

    Someone's got their panties in a bunch. Nobody's making demands. That said, if you're collecting donations and monetizing your mod through AdFly, there are expectations. (Which is probably why King Lemming doesn't take donations, despite my attempts to give him money)

    How to get Soul Stealing enchant on a Diamond Sword

    I think you completely missed his sarcasm. Transferring the enchantment also increases the cost of repairing it. Remember, the Diamond Sword only lasts 6x longer, then you have to spend 2 more diamonds to repair it. Unless you have dense ores, getting diamond in my world was harder than a...

    How to get Soul Stealing enchant on a Diamond Sword

    If he wanted to balance things that way, don't you think he would've made the Vile Sword unrepairable? I mean, the fact that you can repair the Vile Sword is huge. I pretty much got all 5 of my LV5 spawners with a Vile Sword + Sharpness. Repaired that thing so many damned times.

    How to get Soul Stealing enchant on a Diamond Sword

    I'm guessing the word he's looking for is redundant. He's saying they don't stack damage. Which I understand. I only had Disjunciton on there because the sword I was combining came with it. Anyhow, I've since made a new sword, since I accidentally used up the old one and it disappeared...

    How to get Soul Stealing enchant on a Diamond Sword

    Yeah that's possible. Also it was "Too expensive to repair" before, but that's because I haven't been renaming it. I've probably repaired it 4-5 times by now. Oh well, I need to start over anyway, I've made this sword too expensive over time. This one has Sharpness IV, Knockback II, Vorpal...

    How to get Soul Stealing enchant on a Diamond Sword

    I like putting the Soul Stealer Enchant on RP2 Ruby or Sapphire. Ruby/Sapphire lasts for 2x that of the Corrupted Ingot (250 vs 500 uses). Also Ruby/Sapphire has the same damage as Diamond (7 damage instead of 6 with the vile sword), so the sword lasts longer in that fashion too, due to...

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    I actually only noticed it because it was listed in Azanor's Thaumcraft 3 "modpack permissions". Otherwise I would've never heard of ATLauncher.

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    ThermalExpansion, or TE for short. BuildCraft is Sengir (as is Forestry), the guy GregT named the planks after (because Sengir made fun of him that everything in his pack might as well be made from Nether Stars). He doesn't have a donation link on either his website, nor his...

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    I will admit, Azanor makes a great mod. And with updates. However, don't undersell yourself, you have an excellent mod of your own. And you're not afraid to give people pro-distribution permissions. Which reminds me. Do you have a Donation link? I want to reward this behavior, with money.

    Meh. His question was answered long ago :)

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    I've thought about making such a system for some time, it's good to know someone already is. Have links? You make it sound as if modpack authors have a choice (they do, but with such a system big mods would be rapidly be replaced with Micro Mods). Anyone who doesn't include their mod in the...

    Is there a list of all the weapons added by FTB (Mindcrack)?

    Vajra (not from GregTech, from GraviSuit) and Nano Saber (IC2). Otherwise everything else is mostly a sword of some sort. Chainsaws are also weapons (as well as wool shears if you shift+right click). And then there's the Mining Laser. So much awesome in a compact form.

    Mindcrack and Mystcraft

    If you want to get into flat out cheating, there's many other duping tricks: *cough*Canvas_bag_that_eloraam_will_never_fix*cough* The platinum "rich slag" trick (not really duping), involved mining 24 ores to get enough rich slag to make 1 iridium. That's still 3,200 raw ores for a Gravisuit.

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    Yeah, but every conduit-to-device transfer gets taxed 5%. So if you have Engines - Conduit - Cell - Conduit - Machine, you get taxed 0.95 * 0.95 = 90.25% efficiency. It's far easier to use conductive pipe and only eat 0.01% * the short length of pipe (varies, i heard it's broken).
  16. J

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    Yeah. The only thing I use Conductive Pipe for anymore is connecting my Engines to a Redstone Energy Cell, and turning the engines on when it needs energy. From there it's Conduit all the way to the machines. I actually double-buffer my Energy Cell (one feeds into the other). I have gates...

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    I do appreciate her work. And I shouldn't talk bad about her, she's done a lot. Her mod is very nice, with a few (major) flaws. Her license is very archaic. Including her approach to using her mod on even a simple server pack. Her whole stance on copyright is very.... un-Notch like. How...

    Buildcraft Energy routing?

    Eh, I think it can be replaced with Logistics Pipes. -Really, Logistics Pipes are 10x better than RP. Open source here too: https://github.com/RS485/LogisticsPipes -Frames would be missed, but they're buggy, and Steve's Carts + Quarries do 80% of what people use them for anyway (Mining...

    Sweet! I'll have to re-craft it and remember that.

    Stories Full of Win

    I may have remembered wrong, perhasp it was II. I would strongly recommend immediately re-crafting it into Diamond (you'll never be able to fix it but you'll get 5x the uses from it) with an Uncrafting Table, or making sure to repair it before it gets below 50% left. My sword I can no longer...
