    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    I am looking for a way to open a secret door when I approach a wall, I'm pretty good on player detector methods though I'd love to hear more because I'm sure I missed some. What I'm really looking for is a method of opening the wall. I'm using the Monster pack so there are no Redpower like...

    Yes that was my mistake, thank you. It's not at all apparent that you've made a mistake though because the cube still forms and all the wiki's just tell you to place the filler in front of a landmark and outside your cube. In fact I could have sworn it was alot smarter back in the ultimate pack...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    When I used 3 on the bottom and one for the top it didn't work either which is why I resorted to using all 8. I should have mentioned that, I apologize. Maybe it works most of the time using 4, but it seems to work every time now that I'm using 8. Edit: I did not place my vertical length over...

    Well if done correctly the yellow bordering should appear immediately, before I have time to select the icon. To my knowledge to properly fill I need to define a cube, not just a square. I've done alot of testing on it. If I had a box created using only 7 landmarks, and I had it selected in...

    Yes I did, they are all red. I have a 2 chunk or so box, put down my leadstone energy cell, put down my leadstone energy conduit, put down my filler and nothing.

    Problem would be that even after I place it down after the lines never turn yellow. Seems landmarks are alot more buggy in establishing their connections, would that be the cause? It doesn't just setup the box, it'll setup random parts and then I need to tinker to turn it into a box.

    I would not have suspected, thank you.

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    I am trying to run a filler on clear mode in monster 1.0.7. From my understanding Thermal Expansion can transfer RF into MJ via an energy conduit. I've placed a creative energy cell down, hooked it up via 2 redstone energy conduits to the filler, and then defined large and small areas...

    A Rotarycraft Thread (Meanders a little)

    It is possible that my clock is incorrect, but here is how I have it setup. I'm using the 14b version included with the latest monster pack. [spoiler] For anyone looking to use AC engines you should also use flywheels, because at least with this setup the power is a little bumpy. As you can...

    A Rotarycraft Thread (Meanders a little)

    Ha, this seems to be a general rotarycraft thread now so I have a question for anyone. I'd heard reports of AC engines being a bit glitchy, is that still true? The reason I'm asking is that I built a 2 clock as specified on the minecraft wiki and my AC Engine worked fine for a minute, actually...

    A Rotarycraft Thread (Meanders a little)

    Oh I agree with your reason, but it differs enough from expected behavior in reality that it seems odd to equate it with basic math skills or boiling water. A simple sentence about odd interactions with electrical or redstone fields would be both intriguing let and connect to dots a little more...

    A Rotarycraft Thread (Meanders a little)

    I find this weird. In the real word moving a magnetized conductor around near an sizable AC engine does not cause it to run, nor does it induce anything other than negligible electrical current. I'm talking milliamps when what that motor needs amps or tens of amps. So while yes that a realistic...

    Gascraft/Engineers Toolbox Newbie question

    There is a module that you can place on a side that lets you see into tanks, or given the other module the inventory. You might have to output the natural gas as well for it to work properly. I've never encountered natural gas... quite jealous.

    About Optifine

    That depends on the laptop... I have a great laptop, 2 years old now but I have no problem running or hosting the FTB pack. However if you have a laptop with an integrated graphics card and possibly a terrible CPU you might be sol. My laptop equivalent these days only goes for 800, and it...

    Rotarycraft - the mindblower and builds

    Actually Engineers Toolbox does have tanks, but point taken.

    ATG and Hills

    Yes ATG will provide flat terrain. You however might need to travel south or north a few hundred blocks, or a thousand blocks. My world currently spawns us in a mountainous area but south 700 blocks is a plains with redwood trees.

    Rotarycraft - the mindblower and builds

    Heres a question, can you produce lubricant by grinding canola seeds in any other mods machines, like say TE3's machines?

    Why do people like Thermal Expansion so much?

    I'll be honest, I really prefered IC2 with gregtech. Not because of gregtech but because of the multiblock machines. I like TE3 because of it's configurable sides. That's about it. To me all the tech mods but IC2 have a good theme. Buildcraft is steampunk, TE3 is magitech/high tech, rotarycraft...
