    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    The first levels have 5 or 6 netherrack only (unless I missed some of them), the anvil alone needs around 20 (plus a couple iron bars). That leaves a lot of lava+redstone to make the remaining netherrack, then more lava to turn it into Burnt Stones. And has anybody done it manually right when...

    The Vat works just fine. (And it's actually faster to go into the dungeon. At the second level is the room with the netherwart, there is also enough cobble to make the Vat.) But it needs Bottles of Snow to put into a Vat. How do you get a Blacksmith's Anvil early on to make the snow clumps...

    Karma, I absolutely love your pack. It's challenging, has lots to do and an actual end game to work towards. But a basic design rule is to make a game "easy to learn, hard to master" and all recent changes go into the opposite direction. Flaxbeard can be used to make cobble, but how much time...

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    Here a few changes I made in my local version to make the early game playable. Add the following line into scripts/ModTweaker.zs: mods.exnihilo.Hammer.addRecipe(<minecraft:snow>, <kawaiicrops:kawaiicrops.snowclumps>, 0.40, 0.10); It allows to use the ExN hammer on snow blocks with a 40% chance...

    Won't help you when you are just starting out. The cobble is not a problem, you can get that on the first day from the dungeon. Lava for the Vat is also in your base. But you need Bottles of Snow, which are made from Snow Clumps, for which you need a Backsmith's Anvil, for which you need Burnt...

    There is a workaround for that. The best starter food is Dried Apples, replenishes 4.5 hunger and gives full saturation. Just wait until you are down 5 hunger before eating. It leaves half a hunger empty, you'll still heal but you can also drink (or eat?) the Leaves Cider. But drinking now also...

    Here the "baby version" of a Botania Ore Generator. Simple, cheap and compact - should be possible to build it pretty early in game. The major limitation is the mana, add more mana sources and even this small build will generate ores pretty fast.

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    That you throw the other metals into the trash, because they have no (early/middle game) use and the storage is already full of them, can't be a feature. :) No argument here, you will have to make a variety of different food. But the cheaper food should be less effective or all the food should...

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    @karmarcharger , is it possible to take a look at the ore distribution? A common complain is that we constantly run out of iron. (And especially when you get into PneumaticCraft, EnderIO, Galacticraft. These mods eat a gazillion ingots.) At the same time you've got stacks of tin, zinc and...

    You can simply make Brass in the crafting table, it works also with TiCon copper. I would then still run the Brass through the Flaxbeard crucible and turn it into plates. 2 ingots = 3 plates, this reduces the material cost for all the FB machines quite a bit.

    The mod is IngameInfoXML (Link to the Minecraft forum). It lets you display pretty much anything you want. ... Just haven't figured out yet, how to show the fill level of the Camel Pack. :)

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    Since I still hope that infinite water will remain disabled in the next update (looks at @karmarcharger :)), here a compact setup for Flaxbeard's. The Stripes Pipe (powered by a Pulsating Gate or Redstone Engine) harvests the snow and feeds it into a compacting Drawer. One single field for...

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    That means, no need anymore to build a snow farm/smeltery? That's too bad, because it was pretty unique to this pack. Also means, there is no use anymore for the Frying Pan? (Maybe much later in the game to make some additional food.) How can making the water and refilling the camel pack be...

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    It's probably because Generikb actually builds stuff and makes it look nice. He doesn't just do it DW20-style and throws his machines into a hole in the ground or a cobble 9x9. ;)

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    My first reaction was "Yay, awesome!". But on second thought, doesn't it make it too easy? The limited resources and gradually resolving these bottleneck is a major difference compared to Crash Landing. Limited water and how to overcome the shortage is a big part of it. What are the concerns...

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    This is pretty much Tetshio's cobble gen, just simplified and compressed down. Should be possible to build it very early on and hide it somewhere in the wall. The Compacting Drawer is an early quest reward, the most expensive part is the Stripes Pipe with a cost of 8 gold. Screenie in...

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    Cool, thanks. That will work! (See, it was just me being stupid. :))

    [LISTED][1.7.10]BlastOff! [Hardcore/EasyCore, HQM][170++Quests] version 1.3.3STABLE

    Hopefully it's just me being stupid, but I was stuck at building the TCon Smeltery. I know, just can smelt gold in the ExN Crucible and make the ingot cast. But mining the spires only drops the Smashed Ores, the crucible doesn't work with those. I've also tried to turn them into ingots first...

    [Big Reactors] Help with on/off system

    It doesn't need the Rednet Controller for that. Simply have two Rednet Ports, one is set to output the level of the energy buffer, the other set to control the rod positions. Then conect both with a rednet cable.

    [1.6.4]Crash Landing [Hardcore, HQM] version 1.1.x BETA STABLE

    Seems like you are really only able to think about what the pack currently is and not what it COULD be. - Add Galacticraft - Add some recipes (lets use TE to keep it simple) - Induction Smelter: Pyrothium + Block of metal -> "Unrefined Fuel Crystals" (using any of the unused ExAliquo...
