    Dark Flux Nodes

    Hey guys, I built my base next to one of those barrow mounds from thaumcraft because I liked being able to easily gather wisp essences. I'm curious about how exactly it works. Normally it seams to build up flux (it's chunk loaded on a server) and has a few wisps for me to kill when I get home...

    Feeding Station not working with Carrots/Seeds

    I'm not at my home computer at the moment, but all I can think of is that the height is fine for cows but not pigs because they're taller.

    Feeding Station not working with Carrots/Seeds

    Hey guys, I recently set up a few animal cages with feeding stations above them. The wheat ones work just fine, but the carrots and seeds for pigs and chickens aren't being used in those pens. They're small pens with the feeding stations positioned centrally about 3 blocks off the ground...

    Automated carrot and potato farming

    Hey guys, I just started setting up farms for my new base with forestry and I noticed they don't have a machine specifically for carrots and potatoes. Does the "Farm" machine work for them as well as wheat? If not, does anyone else have any advice for an automated farm of roughly the same size...

    FTB Server Requirement Query

    I'd aim for at least a full gig of ram minimum. Obviously, the better your server the better your game will be. If you have other players who are interested, you might try splitting the cost with them and getting something in the 20 to 30 dollar range.

    FTB Server Requirement Query

    If you're looking at creeperhost and other similar services, you'll have to judge by your own expectations of what typical gameplay will be on your server. Will all members be using chunk loaders? Max sized quarries? Large scale automated red power frame contraptions? For 5 people, you could run...

    Mature 18+ Servers.

    I didn't realize that the forums where not the place to voice an opinion and get feedback. Clearly he should be punished for being honest about being under 18 and feeling shunned because of the many 18+ servers. ;)

    Mature 18+ Servers.

    Unfortunately for those mature young adults out there, maturity is often thought to be measured by your age. The reality is that you're just as likely to find qualities of immaturity in adults. We spend hours building our castles in the sand and we want to protect our creations from those who...

    100% AFK Wither Farm

    I gave this a try on my test world, however the wither seams to sit inside the forcefield and not take any damage or attempt to attack me. My projector is set up with the containment module and the field is shaped as a 3x3x7 tall box with a 1x1x5 centre.

    Am I supposed to be getting dust when I grind my gem ores?

    Gregtech added doubling diamond yields in the macerator, but recently greg changed it to output dust instead. On the bright side, you can use the dust instead of diamonds in a lot of recipes (like glass fiber cables and the rock cutter).

    Two platinum == Limitless iridium

    Any sort of autofarmer will also get you endless iridium from digging it out of the ground anyway.

    Two platinum == Limitless iridium

    You MUST keep mining ores to maintain rich slag. So this method isn't really exploitative because it means you must continually provide ore and sand, while sacrificing your potential extra gains (using the rich slag for other metals like tin or gold, or the 5% chance on pulverizer to make extra...

    Pulverizer is better than Macerator In GregTec

    The pulverizer is a better choice for people who want that extra 5% chance to get more dust, while the macerator is upgradable (either through advanced machines or overclockers) to become lightning quick. If I wanted to make electrum from a stack of silver and gold bars, I would easily chose the...

    Mindcrack Pack, IC2 Miner: Missing Valuable Ores

    I just added your configuration to the miner config and my miner still doesn't pick up certain ores. My config reads: S:valuableOres=14:3, 15:4, 16:1, 21:3, 56:5, 73:3, 129:5, 200:1, 220:1, 221:1, 246:1, 247:1, 688:1 So far I've noticed it ignores xycorium, cinnabar, aluminum, and crude oil...

    Mystcraft instability?

    I think one of the possible instabilities is buffs on mobs rather than debuffs on you. Could be animals are also benefiting from it.

    I'm stock in a mystcraft world

    The appearance of a star fissure is quite uncommon, but if you do see a large ravine with stars at the bottom then falling down it will take you back to your spawn in the overworld. If you cannot find a star fissure, (they're usually semiclose to where you spawned into the age), then you will...

    Nuclear Power DW Style

    You can make 1 thorium cell from 2 near-depleted uranium cells. I don't believe you can use re-enriched for anything except trying to convert them back to normal uranium cells with a breeder reactor.

    Mass Fabricator: In game or out?

    I think we've stumbled on a fantastic solution here, it's too bad greg isn't on the ftb forums haha

    Does the logger not cut down rubber trees

    I haven't had much luck with sticky resin collection either. Pipe on the side, pipe on the bottom... I'll get logs, apples, saplings but never sticky resin for some reason. Thankfully you can toss rubber logs into an extractor for rubber.

    Does the logger not cut down rubber trees

    I think your redstone wooden pipe is backwards, the thick brown side indicates the side that's pulling out items or power.
