In addition to the above issues, public recognition of problematic posters can even encourage them. Name-and-shame requires the person to have shame, whereas many trolls actively enjoy that sort of singling out. ... that's not terribly encouraging, from my perspective. It's somewhat...

Even outside of the questions of modding copyright status, federal or international lawsuits simply cost too much to try, and /all/ copyright lawsuits are at least federal charges in the United States. For the little guy, copyright enforcement is a /very/ hard thing to get. That's not to...

You can pipe Factorization Steam into Steam Engines for BuildCraft MJs, and while the silver requirements can be non-trivial, they're pretty quick ways to generate fire-and-forget power. It's compatible with anything that can take RailCraft steam. Won't help if you're needing IndustrialCraft...

Sorry. Was getting a different reading from the "nuclear deterrent" phrase, and especially given some concerns about operating system security by other posters, felt that it was worth clarifying.

It's possible to write relatively obtuse code, but breaking it up into several locations is less helpful than using relatively obscure attacks. The last opportunity is the concerning one : automatic updates make it very, very hard to reliably verify code. Heurestic techniques to detect...

From a code perspective, the difference between "throw EverythingStopsWorkingException;" and "FileOutputStream.getChannel.transferFrom();" is pretty much trivial, and there's no way to lock the latter down without disabling multiplayer (and causing a lot of other problems). The tricky part to...

Calling it a code bomb is overstating things a bit. Throwing a hard-to-catch exception is not exactly tricky code, and there are a number of folk who already check their compiled code signatures to avoid reverse-engineered versions of their mod flying around. Contrast, say, turning bees into...

Items with a higher priority number will receive new items first, while lower (or negative) priority numbers will recieve items later, assuming neither device has any of that item already in it, or both storage devices have some of that item in it. Note that priority will never override the...

The texture missing warnings have to do with how Minecraft's texture pack format changed (and we'll probably see it again in MC1.6.2). They won't cause any errors, excepting for a very small increase in loading time.

As a rule, AE will /always/ put items into a drive or storage bus inventory that a) can accept the item, and b) already has one of that item already on the drive or bus. You'll want to put the first unit of cobblestone into the barrel manually (ideally, before even placing the storage bus), but...

There should be a detailed log file called "ForgeModLoader-client-0.log" in your Minecraft directory. That'll include errors (mostly CONFLICT, but sometimes SEVERE) if a mod attempts to or does overwrite an already-assigned ItemID or BlockID.

You can put the Storage Bus on any side of the Barrel, although it must be facing toward the barrel.

BasicComponents should be depreciated, and not used, but many UE mods have picked up its parts. AtomicEnergy includes the 1 iron + 4 coal = 1 steel recipe so it can operate in environments without Mekanism. AtomicEnergy is also likely what's triggering the bronze change (since Bronze Plates...

I've not tried it long enough to have a comprehensive list, but gears change to use ingots as the center rather than wooden gears -- and thus any engine, many farm blocks, and some other components will have slightly different costs. That should work, although MFR makes a number of design...

It'll run without crashing, although I warn that it will change some recipes, often to more expensive variants. The lack of item pipes (or major power sources for AE/Infinitubes) may be an issue for automation, however

Yeah. At the very least, I'd prefer if BuildCraft had a config option to set the default and BuildCraft-specific powerPerdition values. There's a number of modpacks where the current values will obviate the use of a lot of BuildCraft-based machinery. That's a complicated question. Unloading...

For the base BuildCraft operations, most machines simply won't work, and that seems to be intended behavior. Lasers, Quarries, Fillers, Refineries are all set to consume 1MJ/T explicitly, and either have small ranges between their MinActivationEnergy and MinEnergyReceive values and thus or...

A bit, although I'll admit that my use patterns are a little unusual (combustion engines over steam boilers for power, and more Forestry stuff on the central power stack than most people like). Any question in particular striking you? Generally, by importing the instance into MultiMC and not...

They're fairly common monster spawns in Twilight Forest labyrinths : you can quite easily get two or three stacks just running around.

That's not the most useful metric, especially given how many mods run on nonsensical, magical, or technobabble 'advancement'. And a lot of the changes that don't make sense /here/ are only tangentally related to the advanced side of GregTech -- the new reliance on wrenches, most obviously, hits...
