    Who needs pipes when you've got railcraft? :)

    I may take a look at something like this, although truth be told it's way cooler (to me) to have tanks of lava in my overworld base. They just look so much cooler.

    Who needs pipes when you've got railcraft? :)

    I built the railcraft nether lava transport line, and liked it well enough, but pipes do take up less room and are a bit more compact for some things. So I wouldn't replace pipes altogether with railcraft, but it is neat a neat mod.

    I really wish...

    I had to do a search to see what that is, and it does look extremely handy (thanks!) although still a manual process. Hence my wish, updated a bit to include some automatic way of consolidating all the duplicate ores under one ID. Using an automatic sorting system, sending 4 different copper...

    I really wish...

    I'm using the Direwolf pack, so no GregTech, which I'm happy about. I didn't like the harder recipes GT adds. Any other way?

    I really wish...

    I really wish there was a way to consolidate all the ores so that there is really only 1 of each type. Currently when you smelt in a Powered Furnace, you get 1 type of copper ingot, whereas if you smelt in this other furnace you get this other copper ingot, with different IDs. A copper ingot I...

    Disabling specific items in NEI

    Thank you. That's an awesome tip. I didn;t know the subsets allowed for filtering, I though it was just a dropdown type of list to pick from.

    Disabling specific items in NEI

    Mostly I'll play on survival, but when I'm building stuff I'll cheat in blocks now and then just to run them through. I've got my sorting system, but with all the different yet duplicated ore blocks, is there a way to have just 1 copper ore block, 1 copper ingot, 1 tin ore block, 1 tin ingot...

    Is there a mod that...

    So in the different available packs, there are all these different machines that require different types of energy, and different ways of producing, consuming, and even converting that energy but it requires a great deal of reading and searching online, out of game. Is there a mod anywhere like...

    Inter-dimensional portals - portalgun/mystcraft?

    Sorry, can't help with that. I've never used a portal gun.

    Inter-dimensional portals - portalgun/mystcraft?

    There's no bottom. The portal has to be magic crystal blocks all the way around, like a nether portal.

    Inter-dimensional portals - portalgun/mystcraft?

    Not that I can see, it's exactly what I did. I did it on the FTB Beta Pack, not the MindCrack or Direwolf Pack. Dunno if that makes any difference or not.

    Inter-dimensional portals - portalgun/mystcraft?

    In my world, I have MystCraft portals that go to the End (for my Enderman Farm) as well as to the Nether (for lava transport). I even have mystcraft portals in the overworld that link to different places in the overworld, although I was having some issues with carts using them appropriately...

    FTB in Creative or Survivor?

    With any of the FTB packs, I'm just curious as to how many actually play survivor mode and gather what you need to build and run these machines, and how many people either use Creative mode or NEI to cheat in the machines just to play with setting things up? For myself, I usually try the...

    Pipe juncture woes

    Thank you all. You've given me some ideas and re-piping to plan out.

    Pipe juncture woes

    I had thought about facades, but they hide the pipes, and I kinda like the way they look. :) I'll try the mixing and matching of cobblestone and stone to keep things separate, with some facades here and there for aesthetics. Thanx!

    Pipe juncture woes

    In the 1.4.2 FTB Beta pack, as well as the DireWolf pack (haven't done much with that one other than started a world) is there a way to keep pipes from automatically joining to adjacent pipes? It's certainly a handy feature when a pip automatically connects, makes laying it down much much...

    Carrot planting?

    Is this true for the 1.4.2 FTB Beta Pack (whichever version of Forestry is with that) because I tried putting carrots in. It creates the dirt, and tills the earth but no carrots get planted.

    Carrot planting?

    I'm using the Farmer with a Combine for wheat planting, and have wheat going to a feeder for cow breeding and it all works great. Is there any way to duplicate this process for carrots, and a feeder type machine for feeding/breeding pigs? Also, is there some way to divert only half of the...

    Feature Request for the Launcher

    Here's something I think would be beneficial to the launcher. A way to separate out into a new tab, or someother way to denote, which packs the player has active worlds for. So one tab with all the available packs, and a tab showing what's been selected to be played.
