    World Map Reset

    Just make sure to back up the folder before you delete it, in case you want to reuse that world in the future.

    Is there FTB Ultimate for 1.5.2?

    The ultimate pack is not going away any time soon, it just will be forever stuck at minecraft 1.4.7 and will not receive any mod updates. So you should be safe to continue playing your world until you are ready to get rid of it and upgrade. As it is not possible to keep your world after...

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    Doesn't the rotor get ejected from the machine if you break one of the blocks that make up its multi block structure? You could setup a system to pick up the rotor from where ever it gets dropped to and than send it off to be repaired and reinserted.

    FTB Unleashed Adding Power Converters

    The most you may need to do is adjust the block IDs for power converters mattering on if they left the default IDs open or not. Also note that you have to readd the mod manually each time they update the pack and if you run a server then each of your users will need to do so.

    Converting old maps to FTB Unleashed/Unhinged

    I'm sorry to say that is not really possible and the FTB team makes that fact very clear in the announcement for the new packs. At the very most you may be able to get it to load by using midas gold or a similar program to manually remap the block ids but said process is very time consuming...

    Is there a way to make a light or indicator that indicates...

    If you use a cobble stone structure pipe you will not experience the issue of minefactory choosing to eject into it, instead of your red power tubes. For your setup it would be best to use 3 cobble stone structure pipes and 2 iron gates of any type connected with pipe wire.

    Is there a way to make a light or indicator that indicates...

    I would recommend a cobble stone structure pipe if your not already using build craft pipes with the containers. Put the gate on it and right it to adjust the UI to fit your needs.

    Ways to travel up & down?

    Mojang broke the traditional piston based zipper elevators back in 1.3 by making them far more buggy and temperamental. Basically they only work in SSP and if your standing perfectly in the middle of the elevator and even then they are highly prone to error. A better option is the pig lift...

    Ways to travel up & down?

    If you have good armor and a tnt factory you can always setup a tnt based lift system to blast your self from floor to floor.

    Ways to travel up & down?

    Also be aware that arcane levitators will lift you 10 blocks and each additional one in the stack will increase it by ten.

    Ways to travel up & down?

    There is a way to do this with arcane levitators and taking advantage of the fact that they turn off with a redstone signal. Basically you need to stack a few together and wire them all to a complex control system to power and unpower the redstone signal to control the lift height as needed.

    Netherportals linked... at 1055 blocks away?

    The way the game works is that each time you step into a portal it calculates your target location (current x and z divided by 8) than it searches for the nearest portal in a 128 block radius to that. If it fails to find one than it will search for the nearest safe point and create a new portal...

    How to distribute items evenly in AE

    AE is amazing but it is not a swiss army knife, as its strengths rest in compact item storage and auto crafting but it comes up lacking in the item management department. As it currently lacks a good deal of control over exporting and importing items a long with a good system for item routing.

    How to distribute items evenly in AE

    Simple, don't connect the export buses directly to the farms.

    When is the new 1.6.1-1.6.2 update gonna come out?

    Asking for a ETA is one of the worse things you can do in a modpack community as it implies that the modders and pack devs are obligated to update. Which in all honesty they are not in any shape or from as modding minecraft is nothing more than a fun hobby to occupy their free time. Once you...
