    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I'm just getting out of the 'bronze age' now. Been a while but already am seeing benefits. The basic macerate seems so much quicker and better among other things. The only issue I'm having is thinking how the hell do I power an ebf?! It needs 128/t but low voltage 32/t but you need aluminium to...

    Your asking the wrong person when it comes to the math, I'm terrible at it but I do see your point. The way I'm planning might he more wasteful overall and yours may be more efficient. I have no idea :p Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I'm going to try this... I was thinking about taking the logs from a tree farm, smelting into charcoal using enderio alloy furnace, then using charcoal for steam production, especially since 1 log = 2 plants auto crafting normally. Or are you using some other way to get more planks from the...

    I totally agree with trying to use Greg tech pipes but the way they move fluids is 'messy' and can be somewhat unreliable - that's what I've found in the past anyway and I like reliability I'm struggling for steam production myself, although since the recent update to v1.1.2 with the change of...

    Huh, I thought they only needed direct line of sight to the sky tbh. You can even place a glass block above them and they worked for me. Have you got anything on the sides? Which way are you piping out the steam? (Or in this case no steam :p) Try using the wrench and placing them back down...

    I'll share a secret that's worked for me in the past with these tree farms, using enderio item conduits set up a system for a tree farm so the logs go into a automatic crafting bench (or something Similar) to turn logs into planks. Then use these planks for fuel in a steam engine (possibly the...

    Yeah it's gonna need some testing but I get what you mean. Hopefully this will make it easier for people on 1.6, I'm no where near that on 1.7!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    If the durability runs out on the rotor they explode. I tested this on single player and it made a god-almighty crater!! If you have it in your base like many people will do and your not checking it every 5 mins to see if it needs maintenance or a new rotor you are screwed. Sent from my...

    I'm curious the what way you would do it? What would you think is the most efficient way? Yes! I challenge you to do this :D I'll give you a cake (full cake not half eaten!) if you can this ;) I completely agree with this. What Greg was thinking when he decided the turbines will explode I...

    [1.6.4] InfiTech Modpack [GregTech/Galacticraft hard-mode modpack] - DISCONTINUED

    In the latest update of the pack the RC steam turbines have been removed so the only option is GT turbines which need two RC boilers to operate at full efficiency but IMO I don't think you will have an issue with that ;) and in 1.7 it's even harder to all that set up due to the updated GT which...

    I've never used nitro desire before but just read it's 30% more efficient to use than fuel and that's including the running costs of the distillery too! Going to have to look into that! I'm helping test 1.7 atm though so I've pretty much starting from scratch with the new updated gregtech...

    I will definitely be getting into creeper weeds, they seem to be one of the best things for mass producing gunpowder for all the TNT we need. I always use oil to make fuel and run my backup generators on that. Usually to only supply power to a few key machines and my ME system because as we...

    Ooo brilliant thanks :) I'm going to give that a read while I'm at work! I'm totally new to these ic2 crops but from what I can tell Aiwen did one hell of a job on the 1.6 Dev server! Had oil berries which I would have loved to have automated into fuel!!
