I hereby dub thee, the "DireCrack Pack". The combination of all mods in Mindcrack + Direwolf20.

You don't know that. These are the ONLY two things we know:

You're pretty anal-retentive about the definition of Ultimate.... to the point of being douchy. Yes, FTB will be adding mods until the end of time. By your definition, Ultimate Pack won't be Ultimate when it's released, because it won't contain mods to be released in the future. Right now...

So, after the comments (my biome is redrock but I also tried temperate rainforest), I went and found an ocean, and just mined down and backfilled the hole. Ended up finding a cave system @ diamond, which lead to a ravine (under the ocean at diamond level!). I found my first diamond on my...

You'd probably have all the tears you need before you finished the T5 spawner. It's like a 50% drop (with gunpowder being the other), in my experience killing Ghasts in a flat Hell Biome.

Is it elevated? The ThermalExpansion ore file in MindCrack says 1 diamond cluster and 4 as the cluster size. It's my understanding the mod defers to the TE configuration. Isn't vanilla clustersize 10? Did someone screw up? How is that "more"?

This came up in another "hijacked" thread, but multiple people noticed in DW20 and Mindcrack diamond was ultra-rare. It used to be that diamond was in "every chunk". Now, I've mined several chunks @ diamond level (with a Vajra) and no diamond. I have found it.... but only after searching many...

BC machines don't "randomly explode". They only explode if you don't cool them enough, or extract all the power. I already said the simple solution is to isolate GregTech machines on a separate grid. But it's still a dick move by GregTech for changing something so critical in a minor...

My endgame is just having enough materials to go around building crazy machines/contraptions to automate silly tasks. Spawn Farmers, crop harvesters, etc. The more automated and steps involved the better.

Ghasts are pretty easy to kill in a flat Mystcraft Hell Biome with a Mining Laser. Really, you just spam laser shots in a circle around the ghast and it'll change direction into them and die, it only takes about 2 hits. But yeah, it would take quite a while, since you only get 40 shots with...

Yeah, but it's rewarding..... since you get to fly. But I will agree, Gravisuit is a headache, because it involves a ton of things that don't stack, and about 12 stacks of Tin Ingots.... took me 5 hours to mine that in a Dense Ores Cave world. The other requirements aren't all that bad, only...

In buildcraft, machines blow up, but it only harms machines next to them, much like when a Creeper explodes. This will harm every machine in your IC2 network, no matter what modpack it's from. And I can't really do the copper thing. I put all my wiring in the floor and cover it with...

I don't think you fully read what he changed. Anyhow, he's basically saying when a machine explodes, it triggers 2048EU/t in all the glass fiber cables, then causing your other machines to explode. I don't know about you, but I have all my machines connected via Glass Fiber cable, no matter...

That sick bastard! I'm not making GregTech machines anymore.

Maybe GregTech thought mining Diamond was OP and nerfed the worldgen. Too much diamond. Now you have to make it using his machines....... /Obligatory GT bash

Hrm, perhaps there's a bug in the extra biomes? My friends base is in Temperate Rainforest and he said the same.

Eh, I've been mining in my own world too. Diamond is ultra rare. Dunno if something is broken, but I haven't really encountered it. Mystcraft uses the standard generation rules, the OP nature (even moreso than Dense Ores - which doesn't seem to be working.... I think a mod is nuking the...

Bingo. And yes, we recently installed Mindcrack. In my Mystcraft world (without Dense Ores and with cave world), it's a chore to find diamond. It's ultra-rare. I've gotten a stack of every ore and only 2 diamond. Not sure why they nuked it. It's way worse than FTB Beta A or Vanilla. It's...

This was actually covered in a thread a few days ago: http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/ore-tweak-file.8408/

I use cobblestone because it's Infinite. I use 2 Hybrid Solar Panels (tons of Iridium -- started Beta A with IC2 setup) and siphon some of that power to 4 upgraded (1 Bronze/Iron Tube) Electrical Engines that produce 30 MJ/t using 80 EU/t. This 30MJ funnels to 2 Magma Crucibles turning...
