    Factorization barrels with Builcraft pipes

    Nice work Vauthil. This is going to be my next thing to do with routers I think. I've noticed routers in some places being able to access almost every machine in my base, up to a couple of chunks away. My tree farm, wheat farm and peat bog are all in a row and from my main building across the...

    Induction smelter automation

    When you run into the two inventories problem you can use two gates, some structure pipe and some red pipe wire. Have 'space in inventory' = 'red pipe signal' on your machine, wired up to your autarchic gate with 'red pipe signal' = 'energy pulser', so you can keep your inventory space detector...

    Hello

    Welcome to the forums. Folks round here are very knowledgeable, even a seasoned tech mod player like myself can learn a few things just reading. Don't be afraid to ask if you want to know as well, generally you'll get lots of enthusiastic but over-complicated answers. Just the kind of people we...

    Kenshi - indie game

    This looks very promising and like you say a steal for 10 dollars. The video description says a combination of Elder scrolls and X-com which is a very good thing to aspire to. :) I'll try out the demo today, thanks for the heads up! edit: Instant buy. I agree with your good and bad points as...

    Neo Scavenger

    Anyone else has a go at this? It's a hex based survival game by a guy named Dan Fedor, who used to work for Bioware making AAA titles but has struck out on his own to make this indie game. You can find videos, screenshots and the demo here. The demo restricts the playing area but gives you a...

    City Project!!

    I just realised your livestream is at 5am for me. :( Am I likely to miss any vital information? I'll try wake myself up but I think it's a bit unlikely haha.

    Anyone else loving Factorization?

    Loving it, adoring it. Its bumping elbows with Forestry for the top spot in my favourite mods list already. With the crystallizers you can use routers for the whole lot. I have a line of 16 of them with a router for each empty slot, and another one that divides all the reduced chunks between...

    Melon slices to seeds, and some TE stuff.

    I actually figured that one out myself, I was annoyed with those conditions popping up in every gate whenever I reloaded the world. Much to my surprise the condition actually worked so it's infact really useful. But yes, reading makes you smart. :D

    Melon slices to seeds, and some TE stuff.

    You can use gates to check whether an energy cell is full which could be useful to you. Just put the gate on and reload the world. Tadaa, you have 'full energy' conditions in all the slots, which do actually work when they're next to an energy cell. Gates and TE machines are obviously planned...

    Realm Of the Mad god

    That just gets worse and worse the further you get as well. My last character was a huntress, on a roll with 250 fame. Just past my old record. Of course I got cocky and tried a dungeon you needed some fairly good items for. Safe to say I got nuked pretty quick cos I didn't know what I was doing...

    Save Games

    The general cycle is vanilla updates, and depending on the size and content of the update the modders take a few months to get releases out for the new version. So at the minute, seeing as we haven't even got all the mods for 1.4 yet I think there's gonna be a while left in the current...

    Twilight Forest

    You need a diamond block, gold block and iron block to upgrade it from the maze map to the maze/ore map, and then just redstone, paper and coal to reset it to a blank one again. A worthwhile investment if you've got the diamonds to spare, those ore blocks will pay themselves back in no time.

    Twilight Forest

    The Magic Map is the handiest one, it shows you the locations of boss areas and hollow hills (big caves like the pic I posted up there), where you can find all the tastiest loot. The maze map is for navigating the various mazes, either underground ones or hedge mazes. You can upgrade it to show...

    Towns

    I played before they introduced the multistory buildings and layers, and then got back into Minecraft and forgot about it. Now going back I just find it really finicky trying to work with that system along with all the other mechanics. I should give it another go as it's a great concept but it's...

    Half Life

    The remake is brilliant, highly recommended. I just wish Valve could count to 3!

    Realm Of the Mad god

    Oh god, lots to say about this as I had a stint on it earlier this year which I consider an utter waste of time for the most part. It's definitely a good idea and I enjoyed it until I worked out what was really going on, and questioned the tedium the game asked you to endure for the chance of...

    Bee Automation

    Thanks man, I'm loving the facades. I guess I could even run that liquid pipe through the wall too. You got anything going yet with all this inspiration? Nobody else seems to want to talk bees much (600 views though, come talk to us lurkers we won't bite) so this might as well be 'Yusu and...

    What're your favorite new discoveries in FTB?

    All sorts, as I was still using my edited version of Direwolf's single player season 3 configs up until the release of FTB. I agree with QueWhat about the twilight forest, the bosses are awesome especially the Hydra. The other big highlight for me is Factorization, I took a while to warm to it...
