    Cobble: Keep it or destroy it?

    Even with IC2... why would you bother to pump cobble into a recycler if you can just place an igneous extruder on top of it. If you have the energy pump all the cobble into a rockcrusher, which might give you diamonds and gold and after turning it into gravel you get sand too (although you end...

    Aura and You: All About Thaumcraft 3 Aura Mechanics

    You can generate everything seperatly. Well I found a very easy way to make my aura stable. The thing you definitly need is a pure node which I made swallow all the other nodes nearby. So all I have now is a 1000 Aura Pure node. Infused Ore normally drops about 2 shards on average if not used...

    Feed The Patrick (FTP)

    Not sure which launcher they had spoken about, but the one they wanted to stop was looking too similar to the FTB-launcher. The point is although they can use the launcher and all it coding the visuals are not covered under that licence, and the condition to use the technical background of the...

    Am I the only one who likes the gregtech recipes?

    Well it is advanced solars fault to use UUM in the recipe. For GregTech you don't need a Matter Fabricator for any of the items. And well the recipe isn't that complicated. 4 Pieces of Iridium, which are pretty easy to get in the End, a Skyworld in Mystcraft or with Shiny Dust from the...

    Redstone energy cell - best way to charge?

    Well yes, but tin is a ressource that overlaps with a lot of stuff. Actually it is one of the more rare ressources, but technically the ressources are normally not the bottleneck since you have endless amounts anyway. But even than setting up a redpower system is incredibly more easy, since it...

    Forge Lexicon Exploits

    Yeah propably the best idea. Since although the ore-dictionary started as a way to interchange overlapping worldgen it endet as a good way to provide crafting-equivalencies. Although it never was a really big issue. Since it could be prevented, but well you need to know all the exploits to...

    Redstone energy cell - best way to charge?

    Well I normally use Redpower to charge the energy-cells. The good thing about redpower is that the solars do not conflict with any other stuff. They only need Silver, Nicolite, Coal and Sand, although you need 2 of them to produce as much MJ as a Solarpanel they are incredibly cheap and easy to...

    What mods (do you think) should be added to DW20 pack?

    Well you know that this isn't an FTB-Modpack. It is just the Modpack meant to be played in Direwolfs LPs so that people can download the maps without the trouble to set up a matching instance. So Direwolf and most likely only direwolf decides what is in this pack. He might take suggestions...

    What are my options? (Thaumcraft Related)

    Jepp propably wall them in for now. Later you can think about an automated wisp-killer featuring tesla-coils or such to get a lot of wispy-essences. Just leave the hill be and build some house next to it, later you can move back in if you have means to control the wisps.

    Thaumcraft 3 Cheat Sheet (SPOILERS!)

    I think some items got aspects by azanor, like refined iron, tin, copper, bronze etc. I guess he also did nicolite and other redpower-stuff. Only soaryn explicitly stated that he added the aspects to xycraft, but since only his stuff broke in the newer release I think the other aspects are part...

    Thaumcraft 3 Cheat Sheet (SPOILERS!)

    Oh it is even heavier than coal^^ The point is nodes only start drawing infused stones if they get really low on aura. But they will draw aura from nearby nodes and depending on where you are you should have about 5.000 - 10.000 aura avaible before you start draining your ore (I think they...

    is it possible to open vanilla minecraft world saves in ftb?

    It should be, since vanilla minecraft is completly existent in FTB. But you won't have all the stuff necessary for some of the FTB-Mods. The folder of the respective FTB-Pack should have a save-folder inside (basically the Pack-Folders have a .minecraft-folder like minecraft normally has...

    World anchor DW20 pack V4 fuel requirement

    Chunkloaders used to not update the area they load when moved. But I think chickenbones already fixed that, so now both chunkloaders work perfectly fine on frames, before it was able to move the anchor outside the loaded area, since it always loaded the chunks around the spot it was placed, not...

    Portal gun bugs!

    1. Ichun disabled the option to look through them on purpose, since it did not work as it should. He will reenable it, once he figured out a good way to do it. 2. Optifine will break the portal-rendering anyway.

    Beekeeping Guide. Yay or nay?

    I'm looking forward to it. Honestly the Apiarist-Database from ExtraBees makes breeding very easy. Technically the mod provides all the information about how to breed, as soon as you have one of the required species. Rocky tells you that it can be breed with common to stone, but the problem is...

    Purifying Aura for ThaumCraft

    Well I'm still researching how nodes spawn whisps. Since they seem to be able to spawn a bit afar from a node. My goal is to actually make a very tainted node and kill the wisps (and propably myself) with tesla-coils. But they do not seem to spawn where I want them to spawn. The Dev-version on...

    Long Railcraft Track

    I think there is also the Anchor and the Sentinel, which Loads Chunks in a row, which is good for straight lines. Also remember that chunks are 16 blocks large, so if you put a chunk-loader every 32 blocks you are totally save (at least if they have fuel).

    Block ID compatibility?

    It is very simple, all the packs use the same configs (at least if it comes to blockIDs). So if the Mod in the DW-Pack uses a certain range of BlockIDs it uses the same range in ultimate or mindcrack or whichever pack. The FTB-Team propably created a large map of all the IDs and arranged the...

    blaze rods

    Well BlazeRods actually have quite some uses... I and I guess many others too, have a tier 5 zombiespawner... no idea what I should do with all the rotten flesh. Normally you gather enough blazerods in the process of getting the tier5 spawner anyway, since blazes normally do not like eating...

    Waiting for Ultimate...

    There is a reason why the ultimate pack is not out yet. 1. It would be basically just Mindcrack at this point, since they won't add Mystcraft because it is pretty unstable at the moment 2. They want to wait for the pr2 for EE3 3. They might also want to wait for the first useful XyCraft build...
