    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    The best I've found (to the point it was borderline broken) was magicfood from Magical Crops, a Gourmaryllis fed one piece makes a really good amount of mana since one piece of magicfood = a full food bar. My current world I'm running my entire Botania setup on 4 Gourmaryllis being fed Ambrosia...

    1.8.9

    A long pause in version changes is a good thing the last long version was 1.2.5 and that was a great time to be playing modded minecraft. The length of time that 1.7.10 has been the default version has allowed many mods to actually mature and not just have a version update and some new features...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Had the dimensions wrong it's actually 10x11x6 so 660/break and in a second you can do at least 2 breaks (unless you hit dirt\gravel in the "middle" block) so roughly 1200 blocks/second. Didn't know that Pnuematicraft had a player interface I knew about the random things one but probably...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    /dev/null doesn't help because with an Efficency 5 Shatterer with Rank SS and the Ring of Thor you clear a series of 9x9x5 "rooms" at running pace for the Kami armor. Basically you are mining that fast that even with /dev/nulls for all non ores your inventory fills up in a few hits at running...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    I discovered that a Rank SS Terra Shatterer with Ring of Thor is useless and has a nice message from Vazkii lol. It's useless because in the pack I'm playing there is no way to clear your inventory which you have to do after every 2-3 hits even using /Dev/Nulls for everything other than ore.

    Infinity Evolved 1.7.10 Focal Manipulator questions

    It uses CVis, I don't have Thaumic Energistics so mine is just setup next to my energized node with a Vis charge relay on top (same one you use on the arcane crafting bench) it feeds directly from the node. I'd suspect that the same method you use with Thaumic Energistics to feed CVis to any of...

    Magic Vs. Tech Round 2 - How much do you prefer?

    I don't much care about tech vs magic I tend to look for functions and "cool things" I can build\use. If a tech mod provides, sweet. If a magic mod provides, sweet. If both provide, even better, I have a choice :)

    How do YOU generate power?

    I'm picky about where I build it has to have a feature or 2 that make me say "yeah THIS is the spot" so I often walk around for several minecraft days before I dig even my first ore, I always have a bag mod of some sort installed so I scavenge as I wander often I start with a couple bags full of...

    Content/Cross-Mod Compatibility in Forge/A Forge Sister-Mod?

    Valid point hadn't thought about that part of it so yeah bad idea that way maybe let the mod gen then forge converts that would take care of it so a post-gen ore dictionarying but pre-load .... hmm yeah nah overly complex solution to a minor problem lol

    Content/Cross-Mod Compatibility in Forge/A Forge Sister-Mod?

    Forge handling Ores would be good, mod x calls for copper\tin\silver, Forge generates them, mod y and g also use them already done mod c has a specialised ore only it uses mod c has to handle it's own gen pretty much what CoFH does now but enforces only one type without me having to go into the...

    How do YOU generate power?

    Project E plus Big Reactors is broken beyond belief, a Cyanite ingot is one EMC MORE than a Yellorium ingot. I had 32000 EMC in my fuel condenser from this in my last world and my reactor was 11x11x11 had some graphite in a semi-checkerboard pattern with fuel rods and was run flat out, made over...

    How do YOU generate power?

    I usually use a couple looted Hobbyist's + EnderIO Capacitor banks as early game power, that does well enough for the initial processing to get a Big Reactor up and running. Yeah it's boring as hell, my current world I'm looking at some weird and wonderfuls as power, Botania is looking fun and I...

    Rules of Creeper explosions?

    Dark Steel bars seem to be wither proof, reinforced obsidian definitely is, you need under 30 to make a Wither killing box that you can literally punch it to death naked in if you want :) I tend to turn mob griefing off mostly to deal with the bloody Endermen since I prefer to leave the...

    I Derp, You Derp, We all Derp, What's your's?

    Safe Mode always safe mode without fail in your base. :) Actually considering the nature of the tool I tend to bag it in my base and use some of my old tools that thing is a shade too dangerous lol

    Draconic Armor is broken OP

    As far as I can tell playing with a lot of different mods there is no endgame armor that requires more effort... maybe Quantum but nobody really considers that to be an aim any longer since IC2 is somewhat, tedious? Seriously Draconic gear requires a considerable investment in infrastructure and...

    Draconic Armor is broken OP

    The Draconic Evolution endgame gear is stupidly horrifically brokenly overpowered... so what? By the time you can make it you are building things "because you can", it is simply not possible from a resources standpoint to make it until late game, and when you do you'll run around giggling like...

    [1.7.10] Regrowth - A WIP HQM pack - Now Listed!

    I used 10 stacks of mutandis to get the witchery plants\saplings that are obtained via that method (extra biomes has a ridiculous amount of possible mutates) this seems a little extreme to me, is that the expected usage or did I just get screwed by my favorite friend the RNGmonster?

    I Derp, You Derp, We all Derp, What's your's?

    I had this in my 1.4.2 world, full MPS with flight (using Gregtech recipes), all gear basically endgame, got killed by my Austere bee exploding me, then the second hive went off as well.......

    Really stupid things that people have said about Modded MC(Off topicness makes moderators tired)

    I had one of my sons mates tell me that "mods are cheating" so I got him to install Agrarian Skies, the rage quits were music to my ears lol (I've got Ag skies running on my home server for me and the kid and he was on his lappy)

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    The harvester has a "trigger" range which is what you see when you hold the sledge, but it's actual harvest range is much larger (something like 25x25x40 not the actual number but it's somewhere close to that large) as long as there is a connection between the trees horizontally, vertically it...
