And people wonder why I love extra utilities :) because of the way it's nodes use inventory search algorithms with the pipes as 'trees' rather than dumping stuff into pipes and waiting for them to explode, nothing gets moved unless it has a destination... so you just set up a chest of coal on...

Oi, the problems are multifold- #1, HEATING UP THE BOILER- You cannot just put an auto tree farm/charcoal /boiler setup in place and expect it to work. You need a BUNCH of stacks of charcoal when you are starting the boiler in the first place, and depending on it's size, it can take a LONG time...

WAILA maybe?

@Algester- basically Forestry can accept most types of piped stuff. Extra Utilities conduits work well, and I even have one setup where I am using ancient warfare couriers to keep the machines supplied and emptied. With the sole exception of the quarry, BC is becoming more and more irrelevant...

matpower- I said 'submods and standalones'. meaning they are both highly compatible and expand other mods, or they work well and seem to have enough functionality to be the only mod of their type in a pack. It was an endorsement of versatility, not an indictment of functionality. The others seem...

You can bet your buttons that they give a lot more weight to the 'established' mod authors opinions than to the general community opinion. If someone like CJ or Sengir says they don't like a mod's balance, it won't make the cut. Guaranteed. Then again, that's generally why I consider the FTB...

Why do you think I am opening my mouth? (grin)or...at least exercising my fingers, I guess.

If you figure it out, write a guide for the rest of us?

The only problem with TE is that it has no auto-mining options. other than that I agree it's a superior replacement to most of BC. If you add in RC or Steve's carts or nether ores or something that can provide building materials without spending every instant at level 11 making tunnels, Then...

Well, Okay, but a lot of people are Using DW20 until an official 1.6.4 'FTB' pack is out. I am hoping Dartcraft makes the cut, because i think it belongs there. I also noticed that NONE of the new packs have dartcraft, and I think that is a mistake. My own 'magic versus medieval' server pack...

Umm, as far as I know engineer's toolkit can up to triple the ore output. MFR's liquid routers are pretty awesome in a liquid-heavy build. Look, there are what, 20 different major techmods, each of which requires an entirely different and complicated knowledge base. BC, IC2, FZ, RC...

I don't understand why people go on and on about 'balance'. On a PVP or grief server, yes, I get it... but isn't that up to the server owners? Dartcraft is fun, pure and simple. Yes, it does some things that OTHER modders consider overpowered without a great deal of pain (although I never...

That's why I use extra utilities.... built-in 1 second timer.

My 'repoweresque' modpack: chainz (chainmail. and elevators!) Minefactory reloaded (redstone logic, programming, etc) (block breaker, numerous other items, item transportation) Extra utilities (tubes, more logic, liquid/bc power movement) better furnaces mod (improved/faster furnaces, lowered...

considering MFR's ejector and the dropper, I find little use for the vanilla dispensers. So I use the advanced dispenser mod which alters the function of the vanilla dispenser to act as a deployer. http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1859018-152-advanced-dispensers-mod/

well, bearing in mind that water is an 'entry level' requirement for vanilla minecraft, it should probably be kept fairly low. Yes, it should be an issue (This is the desert) thus the three iron for the bucket, but four iron plus leather (cows do not spawn in desert) seems overly high for a...

actually, I agree with your reasoning, but disagree with the level of difficulty that should be required. a simple bucket should be able to obtain water from a cactus, breaking the cactus in the process. However, converting a cactus to planks (or sticks?) such as pam's desertcraft does could be...

Here's a suggested mod for the FTB launcher: The ability to add additional 'tabs' to the launcher, with a title of the player's choosing, that contain default vanilla minecraft or with a default forge installation, of a selectable minecraft version, so that a player can build their own 'single...

It was applied energistics, but it was a bug, and was fixed asap. at least, I think it was... hmmm... I will need to look it up. was there another mod that added items made of nether quartz?
