    nether + mffs = DireMiner, and ae shenanigans

    the problem isnt the cables. its the controller. placing/breaking a cable in the spot it used to be in solved the problem

    nether + mffs = DireMiner, and ae shenanigans

    watching direwolf20's lp series, he made a sweet mining platform that hes using in the deep dark for some crazy ore hoarding. i just did something similar, but without the am2 portal to get to the platform and back: almost the same setup. coercion driver -> fortron cap -> 2 force...

    Creative area in survival server?

    ive been to a server running bukkit, they use mods that allow players to jump between maps that are in creative and survival mode. they even use a mod that partitions a map into small regions that are allocated to players, with commands to invite others to build in thier areas. plotme is a...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    me interfaces are the autocrafting gods of ftb. for example: did you know if you made a pattern to produce an item from seeds (say 8 wheat from 8 seeds, 8 diamond essence from 8 diamond seeds from magic crop) and place that in an interface next to a mfr planter...now you have a multi crop farm...

    extremely compact factory/farm facility

    yes this is Yet Another Magic Crop OP Build(tm). But this one is pretty darn cool in how things are managed. The growing area is just a 3x3 patch, but has timewood clocks, lamps of growth, fertilized dirt, a sprinkler, and sigils of natures bounty to speed up growth to the point the plants...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    me transition planes....never used them before. now i dont know how I ever got by without them. WAY better than hoppers when it comes to collecting stuff on the ground.

    Can I do this with Applied energistics? If so, how?

    if you were not using thermal expansion or other mod with a crafting machine, yes you would be right. but the export bus indeed does work without the mac for autocrafting. the first screenshot i posted? that export bus is autocrafting magma cream...guess where thats coming from..the second post...

    Can I do this with Applied energistics? If so, how?

    mac is not required, sometimes autocrafting is as simple as setting up an ME interface on a crafting block of your choice, provide it a pattern that provides the items needed to craft, and let the crafting block take care of the rest. the rightmost interface sends slime balls + blaze powder...

    Can I do this with Applied energistics? If so, how?

    that chest has an me export bus set to autocraft an item and set to active without a redstone signal, and a me level emitter set to emit if theres 64 or more of that item, effectively turning off the export bus when i have 64 or more of that item in the network. theres a storage bus as well...

    Slime problem

    if you dont get them to spawn, you have a few alternatives. if you have a TE sawmill, run rubber wood logs in it and youll get glue balls, which can be substituted for slime in vanilla recipes. if you have a smeltery, and you kill mobs in it, youll get blood, which can be poured into coagulated...

    did magic crops change in latest monster update?

    no, in fact i have a lot of mods disabled. only thing thats updated is big reactors, and i did add item translocators from the dw pack. it *shows* disabled in the config, but in game, im getting extra seed drops. i dont think the mods paying attention ;) or as i said, perhaps its different when...

    did magic crops change in latest monster update?

    I designed my crops on the fact that i would not get secondary seed drops, which was the default (and still is as it is disabled in the config)...seems the mod ignores that setting because now i see there are a TON of secondary seed drops coming from my crops. im not complaining about the extra...

    MFR harvester in TC3 magic forest = OP

    no hes right...its the way the harvester is setup through the configs in config/powercrystals/minefactoryreloaded/common.cfg, look for SearchLimit.TreeMaxHorizontal and .TreeMaxVertical i found the initial values were ridiculously high (like 200 and 256), these control how far out and up a...

    anything in ftb that is similar to the ME Bridge?

    I remember in FTB Unleashed, miscperipherals had a block that allowed a cc computer/turtle talk to an AE network via the ME Bridge...is there a mod for 1.6.4 that offers the same thing?

    Request Suggest mods for creation here

    possibly. ive seen that in action, thats a cool way of doing it too. I know how to program turtles, i use them heavily in my builds (just made a wither boss factory) and programming the motions involved is tedious. having a visual gui (not a text editor) where you build the program, piece by...

    [SOLVED]How to get steel?

    induction smelter: 1 iron ingot + 4 charcoal = 1 steel ingot, 1 iron ingot + 2 coal = 1 steel ingot if you have nether ores, nether pig iron ore in a tico smeltery gets you molten steel

    Adding mods to the Monster pack?

    probably a cave or such right underneath where you were standing...happens a lot

    Request Suggest mods for creation here

    a very cool idea just popped in my head... does anyone here remember the old ps1 game Carnage Heart? It was a pretty wicked concept where you can program a team of robots to go out and duke it out against enemy robots. but the kick was this: the programming was done with chips, with a graphical...
