Really? you needed to necro a thread that had not been posted on in over 3 months?

Screw Steve's Carts tree farms, MFR tree farms. One fertilized MFR farm growing redwoods (I did have to do a minor tweak to the configs to allow it to see the top of them) is producing enough wood and saplings to easily run 10x 36HP boilers for me. And even if you include the animal pen I have...

My new power building in ultimate is functional though the aesthetics still need a lot of work. This is the shot from the outside. That is 6 rows of 14 industrial steam engines on the right, and on the left is a power-converters hub that outputs 1024 EU/t (4 steam consumers, 2 HV outputs on a...

It is explained pretty clearly on the MFR forum post. http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1629898-147-powercrystals-mods-mfr-23-powerconverters-netherores-and-more/

Just a tip, if you want to make an obscure reference to an anime that is great and all, but if that anime borrows a place name from the real world, you may wish to not use that as your obscure reference without any other indicators. Odds are far more people will recognize your reference as the...

On ultimate I would recommend boilers for an EU competition. Go for boilers fed straight into steam power converters (or MJ engines > power converters if you dont want it to feel so cheaty). Ultimate uses advanced solar panels, so even without GT the cost of lots of EU through solar is fairly...

Like a poorly worded sentence that is ambiguous. Which is why I said the thread. Go back, read the whole thread again. Or if you are lazy (which seems apparent) just the part where he describes what he is doing step by step, that might provide some insight. People lay out their step by step...

Umm... nope... might want to read the thread again.

Off the top of my head I am going to guess you are getting an error because you are removing TC3 and not the related bees.

Do an MFR tree farm too if you do this. If comparing fertilized setups support it with a small animal pen to feed a composter for fertilizer. I am going to put money on the MFR farm every time, especially if you use larger trees. (though the power draw is heavier, in the age of massive boilers...

I did indeed use the sludge boiler for soul sand. You can jimmy soul sand into netherack/brick via a soul forge. The tome is entirely out though, it needs a wither skull to craft it. Unless it is available in a dungeon and i am crazy unlucky.

My first glowstone came from using an industrial grinder on redstone ore. I now get most of it from a villager. I have not done any scrap, and I have no UU yet (iridium be a bitch if you dont auto-mine, my other personal challenge). I have a decent pile of soul sand, and can get some netherack...

I played a game where I never touched the nether... now. Having massive fun.

Emeralds are indeed added by GT. If you are on DW20 you will not be able to make them out of UU unless you add GT. GT does not just nerf stuff you know, he adds a lot too.

psh, who needs to compress down to blocks when we have deep storage units. I am seriously in love with these things. They are like barrels on steroids, work great with AE, and have a non-trivial cost component to balance them out a bit.

One continuously fed TE sawmill is significantly more than enough to keep up with two max temp HP 36. You will need a large stock to get through the heatup phase though.

I did a steves carts tree farm last time, and went with an MFR one this time. At first it was fairly meh until i switched it over to redwoods. At that point it was on par with a cart farm. I had to tweak the config to allow it to harvest up to the top though. Added fertilizer production from my...

I finally got around to reading neuromancer recently. I would probably put it in the top 5 books I have ever read, and due to the age it does not get nearly as much attention as it should anymore. It more than deserves its status as a sci-fi icon. Go read it, now.

In my new ultimate world I stopped using EU generators at the mid-game. I got my big boilers set up and am just using power-converters to transform the MJ to EU directly. I am also not using any kind of central storage, but rather have simply placed MFEs all over my base. IDK when it was...

I am getting a lot of automation going right now using a combination of hoppers, Gregtech devices (iStuff, and other machines), and AE. It is actually coming together really well. It has certainly taken a bit more to set up than my old systems (particularly in regards to resources), but it is...
