    ? about item tesseract.

    You could use 4 redstone engines on the empty sides of the pipe (does chaining engines still work? Could put even more that way).

    Wither Skeleton Skulls

    Thaumcraft burrows always have one skeleton spawner, and Twilight Forest in general has lots of spawners (the lich keep is a good spot, for example).

    Seed oil, Ways to farm it?

    Vanilla seeds are garbage for seed oil, you'll want to crossbreed treeds and get either walnuts or chestnuts - they're 10 times more efficient so you need only 5 to fill a single capsule.

    Extra Bees - List of possible serums?

    I tried the same, must've gone through like 4 full stacks of industrious bees alone (and 100's of other bees that I ran through the isolator for other traits) and so far I've gotten exactly *one* pollination serum - too bad it was from an ender bee with slow speed. I'm pretty sure it's bugged...

    villager breeding what am i doing wrong?

    You can see some condensed designs here: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Tutorials/Creating_NPC_Villages Villagers will only spawn if their numbers are <35% than what the amount of eligible doors are.

    Fixing watered quarry?

    Did he flood it intentionally? Underground water pockets do exist, after all, which have the same effect essentially. I find it the best practice to setup quarries over the sea only, since the water doesn't lag the same way in an ocean. It is possible to clean it by hand - it's slow and...

    Why is this Industrial Steam Engine about to explode?

    Yep the water isn't an issue when you use the accumulators, I was just wondering whether the steam can blow it up too if it has nowhere to go. When I tested it didn't seem to be the case, but then again I didn't let it run idle for that long (maybe a few minutes total). Come to think of it...

    Why is this Industrial Steam Engine about to explode?

    In my test world (mindcrack v8), the industrial steam engines I tested built up their internal storage even when connected to conduits (or even an energy cell directly). I guess it's intended behavior to a degree? They stayed green throughout and had just under 10k MJ stored. On a somewhat...

    Need Barrel Help!

    You don't need to? The tubes'll sort them automatically (the wheat will go only into a valid inventory, and in that setup the only valid one would be the wheat barrel).

    Forestry tree farm produces few saplings unless close to it?

    Yeah that's not an official name or anything (MultiFarms is the Sengir-approved term I think), I was just referring to the maximum size presented here: http://forestry.sengir.net/wiki.new/doku.php?id=farms:structure

    Forestry tree farm produces few saplings unless close to it?

    I made a max-size farm on my server (mindcrack v8) to really just test it out, had it running for a while, even when I wasn't in my base. I got loads of saplings - so much so that I had to turn the whole thing off (haven't really bothered with most of the forestry machines yet, squeezer and such...

    Best Source of Power for the MindCrack Pack?

    Any microblock will do. That's just 8⅓ days on a 24/7 server, a fair tradeoff for not having to setup a complicated reactor (especially if you want it fully automated). Solar panels are so convenient that they're pretty much impossible to beat.

    Best Source of Power for the MindCrack Pack?

    Not necessarily; RP2 microblocks are considered transparent, so you could use them to masquerade your holes you'd need for solar power. Of course, since you can't saw grass blocks, you'd want an area where you could use something else (basalt, stone, etc.) for the cover-up and still have it look...

    Extra Bees

    Lapis is resilient + water. Or check the whole progression tree for yourself here (scroll down for ruby): http://plornt.com/bees/

    Ic2 Electric Multi-tool

    Shame the omniwrench doesn't work for Redpower tho. Plus at least in the version mindcrack v8 is using I've had some issues - couldn't wrench tesla coils, for example.

    Tree Breeding (Spoilers)

    So, has anyone progressed as far as getting some of those traits to another breed? I'd especially like to see if anyone's managed to make gigantic versions of trees other than the sequoia. :D

    Bee breeding platinum

    Sounds great, the site as it is has already been a huge help.

    Twilight Forest oak saplings?

    That they are. Wish the new Forestry treebreeding support trees from other mods, twilight oak crossbred with some of the other species could lead to some hilarious(ly awesome!) results. :p

    Twilight Forest oak saplings?

    Naw, the mod creator confirmed as much in the minecraftforum thread. I've looted my fair share of those chests and never saw even one robust sapling, so they must be one of the rarest, if not the most rare, items in TF.

    Bee breeding platinum

    Credit belongs solely to plornt from r/feedthebeast, I don't know if he frequents these forums. He made this insanely helpful tool: http://plornt.com/bees/ It doesn't show the special requirements - biomes and such - for certain breeds yet, but like the page says there'll be changes coming...
