    What causes cables transmitting MJ randomly explode?

    If you are using conductive piping and you are supplying power (engines) but have no load on the system (Machines running), the power will build up in the pipe until it explodes. This also happens if you create a loop in the conductive pipe. This can also be a problem if your engines are in...

    Getting the GraviChestPlate - The Road to Success

    I'm not sure which way you calculated the cooling cells, but the initial ones (10k?) can be made using glass bottles or other containers with water (At least in the Direwolf20 pack). Saves you a bit of tin rather then using tin cells to make the 10k cells.

    Beekeeping Guide. Yay or nay?

    Oh my god, I feel like such an idiot now. I have the exact same setup, though I was running around grabbing extra princesses and breeding them to the proper unidentified species to put in the sorting machine. Then sent the honeycomb/royal jelly/etc. out the default path... Your way makes so...

    Electrical Engine additional Slots - FTB Direwolf20

    If I recall correctly, that slot does not do anything, and the symbol is the symbol for "alternating current". Which is a little funny seeing that the system seems to be more of a direct current system, since you can power devices with batteries. I guess you could have an inverter built into...

    World anchor DW20 pack V4 fuel requirement

    DW20 does have the Chunk Loaders, I think they are from ChickenChunks mod. I like them because of their customization options as far as shape and radius. The lasers also are a great tool for ensuring you have encompassed everything that you needed with chunk loading. The only thing that I'm...

    World anchor DW20 pack V4 fuel requirement

    I'm not sure about the world anchors, but the chunk loaders seem to work without fuel. I'm not sure if the world anchors perform some functionality that is different.

    Iron chests are "dancing"?

    I'm not sure if this is the same thing, but I have noticed that some of my iron chests look like they are stuck in the open state (Lid up). Other players on my server also notice the same chests were showing as open too, but we are all using Optifine. I've never seen the chests rotate or...

    Optifine for DW20 Pack?

    I can't get you the link or exact name of the version I am using, since I'm currently at work and my corporate overlords have blocked access to the MC forums, but there was a version for 1.4.6 (Ultra A3, if I recall correctly). That one seems to be working for me in Direwolf20 v4 pack.

    Then, than, your, you're

    You got to love English. Where you drive on a parkway, park in a driveway. You send CARgo by ship, and SHIPments by car/truck. Some troll throws a "s" in lisp, spells phonetic with a "ph" and makes abbreviation a long word. More than one goose are geese, yet more than one moose aren't meese...

    Power Upgrade Help

    Transformer upgrades aren't that expensive. You can use them to allow most of the IC machines to work without needing to worry about the transformers. Most of the machines operate on LV (32 EU/t), if you add 1 transformer upgrade the machine will work on LV or MV (128 EU/t) and if you add a...

    Rolling Machine

    Basically what Skirty_007 said. If you only have enough items to make one, it won't start automatically. You need to click on the picture of what it's going to make for it to use up the remaining items from the crafting grid. If you have enough items in the crafting grid to make more then one...

    FTAO Technic Forum Users

    As a Minecraft player I have to say I'm just disappointed overall with everyone. I just want to play the game and I think all this drama is turning me off of Minecraft all together. One day over the summer while killing time on YouTube, I came across the Yogscast crew and their Tekkit series. It...

    What Happend to my map?(Purple Decay)

    Not jumping on either side of that debate, but again interjecting some of my own personal comedic ideas, I suggest we up a creeper explosion to be on par with a nuke... That'd make things a lot more interesting... =P

    What Happend to my map?(Purple Decay)

    So, if I disable instability in a dense ore age, then use the coal I gathered from there to create coke, then use that coke in a boiler to power some engines to smelt dust that I pulverized from silk touched ore gathered from the same dense ore age, does all the non-legitness cancel each other...

    What Happend to my map?(Purple Decay)

    You can disable the instability mechanic in the MystCraft config files, there is also a server command /myst-toggleworldinstability which can disable disable/enable instability in a specific age. Keep in mind if there is decay already present, it will continue to spread even after you disable...

    Rolling Machine

    Magmatic engines are fairly easy to build and will accept buckets of lava which is an easy way to produce MJ in the early stage. But as said earlier, electric engines will enable you to convert EU to MJ. If I remember correctly, Magmatic engines ramp up from 0 to 4 MJ/t for about 18k MJ per...

    Server cmd problem

    While in the "C:\Users\James\Desktop\FTBBetaA_Server" directory in the command prompt, try "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xms512M -Xmx1G -cp . FTB-Beta_A.jar There is a space on both sides of the period after -cp

    Server cmd problem

    Oops, seems we are both having cases of typos =P I got the heap commands backwards. -Xms is the initial, -Xmx is the maximum, so try this one. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xms512M -Xmx1G FTB-Beta_A.jar Looks like you also used -xms for both... though might be another...

    Server cmd problem

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx512M -Zms1G -jar server.jar Should be -Xms1G Also replace server.jar with whatever the jar file in the server package is called. I just didn't know the name of the actual file off hand and my corporate overlords have blocked my access to...
