What do you guys do for generating tons of mob essence? I want to use MFR spawners instead of soul shards as they feel a bit more balanced to me, but I dunno how I would go about generating enough of the essence to basically run an endermen spawner without issues. Looking at Direwolf's setup, it...

Actually, there is a way, but you have to use a bit more room to accomplish it, and it's slightly more expensive as well. Simply set a filter on top of the two barrels, and set the filter upside down so that it ejects items into the barrel. Then put rotten flesh in the filter sending items to...

Do you have a source for that? Not saying you're wrong, but I'd be interested in seeing a poll on how many enjoy Gregtech because of the machines it adds and how many enjoys it for the difficulty.

Ah, I thought it would be running on cobble. With netherrack, I'm actually pretty sure you can run more than 8 thermal generators off of one boiler... When I did my testing using cobble, there was only a second or so of idle time for the 8 generators before they were filled with more lava...

ah, sorry then. Can the forestry multifarm even use those trees then? Other than that I guess you could try MFR farms (If you're playing on Ultimate)

That can't be stable, is it? My tests around this are adamant that it isn't :x

Isn't orchard apple trees part of Binnies extratrees? If so, you should probably throw them in a forestry farm of some kind. If you're playing on 1.5 you can actually fully automate forestry farms through bees, as you can get either apatite from Apatine bees or Saltpeter from Hazardous bees.

Uh, yeah, but that's just boring. Powerconverters remove all ingenuity in creating energy in my opinion, so I won't ever use them. They are good for people who don't want to bother with such things I suppose, but I was more wondering what obscure ways of generating power one could come up with...

That did the trick, thanks! I had inadvertently remapped B to one of the train controls (instead of M) when I tried fixing it, which is why I could not find it. Why on earth did the modmaker decide that he did not want his shortcuts showing up alongside the rest of the shortcuts? :x

You can still get rusty bees, right? If so, what's the point of ferrous bees? Don't they do the same thing? Anyway, I would like to see some updated info as well. The wiki states that Hazardous bees (From ExB) is an extinct species and unavailable in the game, but with the .8 WGT pack and the...

Anyone know how to get to the map menu in the .8 version of WGT FTB? I went into the hotkeys and cleared up the conflicts that were there, but when I press 'm' now I'm instantly thrown into the "make waypoint" menu. So I can make waypoints fine and all, but I can't seem to delete them ... Anyone...

Noooooo.............. The only reason I'm using Gtech is because I love his machines, not his nerfs. I don't mind any hard IC2 and Gtech settings or any exploits/loopholes neutered, but I really feel like BC, Thermal expansion and MFR should use the BC/TE recipes like they do now...

I think I'm gonna go with Covert's post on this. He supposedly knows his stuff ;)

Ah, that makes sense. Well, at least my test proved that you really shouldn't worry too much about what the conduits can do or not, it's highly unlikely that you'll ever overload them :x

Not to be 'that guy' but... Okay, so i lied, i am going to be that guy: Why on earth is this in Mod Discussions? It seems to me that Mod discussions and General chat are being used interchangeably... Might as well merge them? :|

I actually did try spawning in a bunch of redstone energy cells. A wall of 15 (set to output 1500MJ/t) seemed to have no issues sending all their power through a single line to a wall of 15 empty cells. The Multimeter only spoke about network saturation, which was at 89% during the ordeal. Say...

I could swear I read about the throughput/input thing during a discussion between covert and lemming after the new buildcraft changes... Too lazy to find out, heh. Actually, come to think of it, it might have been the throughput that was capped at 1k ... Hmm. Are there any way of measuring MJ/t...

Actually I just realized I used conduits while testing this, which have an internal buffer. So even if the machines only drew 6MJ from the tesseract (and got 4.8 or so), they would still be able to draw the rest from the buffers of the conduits, which draws much more from the tesseract and thus...

hm, whats the recipe? Can't get it to work and NEI is being useless...

whu... what? but... thats too simple D: Edit: Just tested it... Are you certain? I can find no such thing on my 152WGT0.8 world...
