    If you have access to NEI Cheat mode then you should be able to temporarily grab the ic2 version of the ore block and toss that in the Unifier.

    Just FYI, but I have gotten steam engines to work with Lava and cooling fins so something may have changed since you last tried this.

    liquiducts vs liquid pipes

    One DC engine is more than enough power to provide water using a pump. The Aqueous Accumulator is also good enough. The problem you're running into is that the steam engine will explode once it reaches a certain temperature. The water pumped into the engine has zero effect on this. Instead...

    liquiducts vs liquid pipes

    How do you have this setup? I haven't had any issues pumping water with a single DC engine. Alternatively, I'll split off some power from the Steam engine itself to run the pump.

    Dear Greg ....

    I believe the reason for the message is that there is some dispute between Greg and some other Devs on the proper point at which to register items with the OreDictionary. That message is showing up instead of the actual OreDictionary name depending on when the function is being called (pretty...

    Don't know. Maybe use Chisel's chisel on Mossy Cobblestone?

    GregTech's Machines exploding due package overload?!

    IC2 has changed. Power is no longer sent as packets. Each energy producer is summed. So 4 generator's producing 10 eu/t will total 40 eu on the line. Any machine that has a max of 32 eu/t will explode. Also, cables have changed. Tin can hold as much as 32 eu, copper 128 eu, etc...

    GregTech's Machines exploding due package overload?!

    Assuming you're using ic2 exp, then the reason the IBF exploded is that you provided more power than it could handle. Two MV-Transformers on the same line will give you 128 + 128 = 256 total eu on the line. Runo's solution above will make sure that each IBF is getting 128 eu.

    In theory, tin cables only take 32 eu/t but the energynet is disabled so I'm pretty sure that you'll be able to put as much as energy as you want on any cable. Also, I'm pretty sure machines only explode once they have work to do. As long as a machine is idle it won't blow up no matter how much...

    Growing Biomes O Plenty Flora..Possible?

    I'm pretty sure that the Forestry config will let you add flowers to Forestry. Of course, this won't get you the flowers directly but a working Beehouse will eventually populate lots of flowers.

    Horizons.. Anyone found Zinc or Adamantine?

    I did find Adamantine at Y level 96 so it is definitely being generated. Looking through Metallurgy's config, I don't see any Biome specific gen options so I assume the Biome doesn't matter. Y level can be anywhere from 0 to 128.

    About Optifine

    YMMV but you can check this thread for people's experiences using Optifine as well as steps to make it work.

    1.8 Snapshot - Underground Biomes in Vanilla

    You should watch DocM's Mindcrack series. He's been getting infinite Emeralds and Diamong Gear for a long time. No update to 1.8 needed for that.

    Well, if you have Logistic Pipes installed then you can probably use the Supplier Logistics pipe to keep the inventory stocked with 1 item. It also uses the same piping as Buildcraft so you don't have to take down too many Buildcraft pipes (you just need to make sure any intersections have basic...

    Thaumcraft 4 goggles?

    Research is random. The only thing you can do is choose an aspect that the goggles have and hope for the best.

    Just checked the Project Red config for Monster, and volcanoes are not set to generate (along with Marble caves). So you can change that in the config if that's an option for you.
