    When can I play with Java past 8-11?

    I don't know about Windows or Mac, but on most Linux distros this is pretty simple to do.

    Are you sure you are doing it right? I am pretty sure I made lenses. That was back in 2.0.5 or something, so maybe something got messed up.

    I held on to Java 7 for a long time based on this, but just recently gave it a spin and have gotten better results playing this modpack and Minecraft in general with Java 8. I went from "works pretty good" to "works good", so kind of a different situation and not a "barely works" to "works...

    EnderIO has a dark steel anvil. Maybe you can take a look at how they did it.

    Gregtech Survival Guide

    I concur in part and dissent in part. The LV machines are very energy efficient. From an energy efficiency standpoint, a full suite of LV machines and even multiples in some cases are best. But MV, yes, it is not worth it to build a full suite, just what you need. If you care about energy...

    IIRC there is an equation in the book with a log in it, so yeah, increasing rad/s doesn't increase speed of operation very fast.

    IIRC you are using some Galacticraft thingy for RF->EU conversion? Could you point me to some more details?

    Is Rotarycraft really useful in Monster?

    Gravel gun is awesome too. And turrets.

    I could have sworn Thaumcraft shards didn't require such a beefy pick. I got my first diamonds in Infitech2 with a pick made from thaumcraft shards.... But who knows? Different pack, it was a long time ago.... things could be different.

    Gregtech question

    AFAIK it is just crappy coal. You need to extract it to dust then smelt to bars I think.

    I don't think you can use impure dusts to make alloys.

    Recent Events Discussion (RED) Thread

    I wouldn't go that far. He is only one person. Maybe he needs a lieutenant to maintain a 1.7 branch with minor things like this in it. Kind of like how Linus Torvalds is in charge of the latest main Linux kernel, but there are a few people who maintain a few versions back for a while.

    So, I finally upgraded from 2.0.5 to 2.1.1 last night. Holy dark steel nerf, Batman! It was probably too easy before, but this looks bonkers.... My son was right, we should have made a stack of dark steel before we upgraded. ;)

    I have made steel in my EBF. I collected oxygen from various processes (limonite, magnetite, etc) using EIO conduits into XU drums. Then I put the drum next to the EBF and use an EIO conduit to input into the input hatch of the EBF. Add iron ingots to the same hatch and you are good to go.

    lol. The cellulose nerf was the right thing to do IMO.

    Yeah, I'll just wait. Plus staying in 2.0.5 is letting me take advantage of the totally OP minechem cellulose, so I'll live. ;)

    :( I guess I will wait for 2.1.1. (patching is such a pain getting everything straight on the server and clients (3) is kind of a pain, and 2.0.5 is working well for us, relatively speaking.) Is the minechem random deadlock on startup fixed? My son actually came up with a name for that, when...

    Okay. I thought Greg was an IC2 dev. Can't he just cut and paste or something?
