    THIS MODPACK IS A BETA.

    Mate, couldn't agree more with your sentiment. Talk about first world problems huh? People really need to chill out and apply a little perspective. I'm loving the work being done by these guys, I sure as hell know that I wouldn't have the spare time to dedicate to the task they've taken on.

    Petroleum Generator (A Forestry-esque BC/IC crossover mod)

    Hey there, wicked timing ;) I've just updated this to version 0.7, which I'm happy to say has configurable options, including the block ID! The default block ID is currently 3143. Mate, that's awesome - I've added it as an alternative texture for now, I'm going to soon put them in a...

    Mystcraft: Crystal worlds?

    +1 to this. Spent ages in my first world doing the random world generation thing, then I remembered that I hate gambling ;) I love the mystcraft mod but the random luck of getting various world types is frustrating. I personally would prefer a resource-heavy and/or research-based system. I...

    Mods you've got working with FTB

    I did get Transformers v1.6 working for my 'build-lots-of-random-stuffs' map

    Petroleum Generator (A Forestry-esque BC/IC crossover mod)

    Unfortunately a combination of the Liquid handling changing from BuildCraft to Forge and difficulty getting a copy of the Buildcraft code for 1.4.2 made this a 1.4.5 only release. I too am waiting eagerly for FTB 1.4.5 edition ;)

    I like the sound of this one - I've always found it strange that I can drain a lake but a small puddle stays full forever!

    Petroleum Generator (A Forestry-esque BC/IC crossover mod)

    On ScottWears suggestion, I'd like to make an open request for anybody who would like to improve the texture for this machine. If your art ability is greater than that of a 4 year old, you'll likely be able to improve on mine ;) The current texture file can be found on the github repository...

    Petroleum Generator (A Forestry-esque BC/IC crossover mod)

    Just a point on the mechanics here, it might help if I explain the internals of the machine. The generator has an EU buffer (battery) of 30k. If this buffer is not full, the machine will burn fuel and charge the internal battery. The Industrial craft power system (EnergyNet) is most similar to a...

    Converting energy

    Also, I've made a petroleum generator mod that does the same thing as the BioGenerator, but for Oil and Fuel.

    [HOWTO] Make a .app launcher for FTB under OSX

    Step 1. Download the FTB_Launcher.jar file and put it where you would like FeedTheBeast to be installed. Note that on launching it will make a few files, so consider putting it in a sub-directory of some sort (I put mine into MYHOMEDIR/Applications/FeedTheBeast/). Step 2. Right-click (or...

    Petroleum Generator (A Forestry-esque BC/IC crossover mod)

    Yeah I hear you mate. My plugin is focused on the scaling issues between the two systems. High tier BC items are orders of magnitude more powerful than high tier IC items (in terms of energy production), which is in turn "exploitable". That scale issue makes this mod ideal for challenge maps or...

    Petroleum Generator (A Forestry-esque BC/IC crossover mod)

    Petroleum Generator 1.2.1 for MC1.4.6 A buildcraft <> IC2 crossover mod. Tasty on its own; Delicious served with a main course of Forestry. This mod adds a Petroleum Generator to the game. This generator will produce EU directly from Buildcraft Fuel/Oil, which can be either pumped in as a...

    After consideration of the reasons against the Transformers mod, I'd like to humbly plug this one: Petroleum Generator (0.4a): http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/petroleum-generator-a-forestry-esque-bc-ic-crossover-mod.2246/ This generator will produce EU directly from Buildcraft...

    Suggest Mods for FTB Here

    I'll be honest, I hadn't thought too much about the FTB maps and was thinking more about the mods in general. One thing I like about the forestry BC <--> IC machines is that there is inefficiency converting between the two power systems. Perhaps a better option than Transformers would be an...

    Suggest Mods for FTB Here

    I just want to put a +1 vote for the Transformers v1.3 mod that is on the maybe/maybe not list (It is also up to 1.6 now and works with 1.4.x - http://forum.industrial-craft.net/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=5789). The reasoning is that it is a mod that has had some thought into the balance...
