It's not feasible. BTW specifically changes _everything_ to be non-compatible with ANY mod. Frames work, but they're somewhat laggy/glitchy. The best bet is Railcraft Elevator Track, or Arcane Levitators.

That's Redpower 2's doing. Rubies are normally quite rare in GT. In Beta A after 2 weeks I only had like 10 of them, and now I have 2 stacks. The Lapotron Crystal substitution has existed since Beta A. GregTech actually advises on his site to nerf RedPower 2's gem generation, but stops...

Genius!

Option 1 Go into the Twilight Forest and punch the Lich in the junk and steal his Sceptre. Then have a truly epic magic battle. Option 2 Turtles. Attacking Turtles. Lots of Attacking Turtles. Turtles are always the answer. Option 3 If you plan to give up..... build an IC2 Nuke. Just...

For the record, you can port a world to MindCrack without major issue. We ported our beta a world. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

I personally like the looks of the TE ores better. I was always sick of confusing Silver / Tin / Iridium under GregTech in Beta A.

Well, thank you then. Probably need a decent sample size. 4 64x64 Quarries should do it. That's 14x14 Chunks, or 200 chunks worth of data. That should be statistically significant.

Modders have donate buttons on their Minecraft.net pages. Go there if you want to reward modders. The point of having "group" donations, is to incentivize modders to open up their mods to this mod-pack.

Yeah, but it's far easier to throw around partially-baseless and subjective conjecture. Honestly, FTB has tons of bugs, and all I know is diamond has been incredibly rare since I switched from FTB Beta A a week ago (as a matter of fact, I imported my Beta A world as a Mystcraft world, so I...

THIS. I already spawned a thread on this topic a week ago. My essential conclusion was, in my opinion, EXBL biomes is not spawning the vanilla Ores. Mindcrack is supposed to use Vanilla + TE. Vanilla runs first, then TE makes MORE ores. My solution was to go find an ocean and mine under...

Yeah, I was mostly saying you should design for creepers. Personally, my base consists of glass domes, with creeper-proof construction foam floors (works great for embedding glass fiber cable and having "clean" wiring). And the 1st three layers of my domes are ThermalExpansion hardened glass...

Personally, turning off creeper explosions is cheating more than turning GregTech to "easy mode". Don't like creepers? Build fences and torches.

Yeah, not sure.... the mob spawn distance limit in minecraft is 128 blocks. You don't have to change the shape..... mostly mentioning you can. Best to play with it and "show lasers" to find the most efficient shape.

For perspective, a player loads 441 chunks. But it all depends what those chunks are doing. 50 chunks in the Nether mining lava is a lot more demanding than 50 chunks in the grassland growing sugar cane. But yeah, watch out with those ChickenChunks. It's easy to get the chunk size up...

I actually have this set-up. It's a very cheaty way to get infinite energy in my view. I did it as a means to an end (getting energy), but I'll make no fluff with it: It's not fun. There's no "cool" factor about it (other than using the power of the sun to make lava). I have a 7x7x6...

Seriously???? You bring up the mod that advertises: "*** The Mod That is Incompatible With Everything!!! ***"? There's a difference between hard, and making something Demon's/Dark Souls or Battletoads stupid hard. Altering mechanics with every update so people have to change their...

That is a poor argument. IC2 didn't change Obsidian in a way that affected vanilla or any other mod (other than perhaps ICBM). Obsidian was still resistant to the strongest things in vanilla Minecraft: TNT and Creepers. They merely changed its blast resistance from "ignore all" to "ignore...

Yeah, Optifine definitely helps. It lets your graphics card flex more of its muscle. It will probably become deprecated a bit once MC 1.5 hits, as they're overhauling the rendering engine for MOAR SPEED. Also turning ON "Advanced OpenGL" helps. Despite the name, Advanced OpenGL adds Z...

I agree. Just like GregTech -- if you don't like it, disable it. The config options are there. I honestly think they don't need to be nerfed at all, but I was just presenting a reasonable suggestion for those who think they do. Question: If you pass a RP2 sorted item through a Tesseract...

The other options for Server was: -Xincgc -XX:ParallelGCThreads=2 These two are huge (for lag). Spawns separate threads for Garbgage Collection (old chunks), and does garbage collection in increments rather than large swaths (introduces lag). A lot of them are described here...
