    IC2, GT, EU Suggestion/Idea Thread

    You do realize, that part of the reason why IC2 has add-on content, is so that "New" content isn't solely dependent on the main IC2 team? Gregtech is an add-on, and look at all it adds. (And, unfortunately, changes... *shakes fist*) So, what we need is a new add-on that adds: * Advance...

    If you didn't have solars...

    You... burn it? And of course there's a turtle for that.. I really don't want to have to learn Lua just to use it, however.

    Alumentum... but I haven't found a way to automate its creation...

    Lava Boilers

    Liquid Lava won't run in Liquid Boilers. They have to be in Solid ones in bucket form.. Stupid rule, I know.. I just use the Iron Tanks...

    Thaumcraft noob question (Please Help)

    Refined Iron is also a cheap way to get 'pure', and if done correctly, you can get most of your metal back in transmutation... Keep in mind you get 1 Glass aspect with 1 Glass pane, 2 Glass aspects with 1 Glass block. And 6 Glass blocks = 16 Glass Panes... i.e., 12 Glass aspects becomes 16...

    The End

    Mod armor and weapons are pretty overkill against the Ender Dragon... The thing that I find that kills you in the End is when you 'aggro' everything around you, in which Enderman swarm around and start attacking as you engage the dragon. If you can dodge the dragon and dodge the Enderman, you...

    Thermal Expansion or Industrial Craft?

    Ok, ok, no need to be aggressive about it. You seem to get really upset over the slightest deviations on a subject... Besides, I'm sure the OP has made their choice by now. So my opinion probably makes little difference. No need to be angry about it...

    Thermal Expansion or Industrial Craft?

    I'm well aware of what you are discussing... TE machines are really good if you prefer a BC powered system, but it's a fuel based system, therefore, you have to feed into it (or circle loop the power somehow) constantly... IC2 machines are up-gradable, have access to renewable energy, and have...

    Thermal Expansion or Industrial Craft?

    No one in particular. I usually find that these 'Mod X or Mod Y' threads are fairly pointless. If anything, it creates a false sense of competition, as if the mods have to outperform the other for whatever misguided means people want. Simply put, mods are created to add to Minecraft in a...

    Thermal Expansion or Industrial Craft?

    "Quick! Let's get everybody to play TE so that they will forget about IC2!" ..yeah, you aren't very clever... And that kid video is annoying as shit. Locking up your site so people can't see what you are up to?

    suggestion for future ores

    Which, in alot of cases, defeats the purpose of adding in new ores in general... In some cases, it could be better to extract resources from pre-existing rock/ores, instead of trying to 'add more to the field'. One of the things that I do like from Gregtech is that he was smart enough to add...

    In what way are iron and ender pearls equivalent?

    Location:Toronto, Ontario, Canada Am I, the only one who sees the irony in these few lines?

    In what way are iron and ender pearls equivalent?

    How is 4 gold dust and 5 redstone dust hard to get? Expensive, yes, but not terribly hard...

    In what way are iron and ender pearls equivalent?

    Pulverizer isn't in vanilla. Therefore, your argument is invalid. Only time you actually need Obsidian is either for a Nether Portal, or an Enchanting Table. After that, you will need it for vMC Ender Chests (which is complete crap), but that alone requires a Nether Fortress holding Blaze...

    Advanced Solar panel too expensive?

    That's for manned mode. The video is from the first IC port into Minecraft Forge, way back in 1.7.3 beta. I know now how inefficient this old beast is, but I just wanted to reference the fact that, while watermills are cheaper and can be automated very quickly, it's not the 'boring power' people...

    Advanced Solar panel too expensive?

    That theory is not as true as you would think, as I don't see tons of people making hydro dams. All water mills require is water blocks, which is infinite in Minecraft...
