Ok, first of all, sorry, there are no puppies. Blame namiasdf for that. He started it. I'm considering some long-term liquid storage, and I have access to a wide variety of tanks, from railcraft to Mekanism's dynamic tanks to the fantastically funky Openblocks tanks to... well, I think that's...

This is a combination of a novella of sorts that I'm writing for fun, along with a lets-play (my first ever!). I'd like to let the story itself do the explaining, but to (hopefully) whet some appetites and set the scene a little, I want to explain the background a bit. Our hero, Steve, is an...

I'm trying to meet Mr. Wither Boss for the first time (yeah, I was busy with other things ok?). I safari-netted a wither skelly and took him home to hug him and pet him and call him George. Oh, and to auto-spawn him in an MFR machine. Hours and hours later, one goddamn skull... and I'm not...

I've used tesseracts plenty, but usually in exclusive send or receive mode. I have a particular setup right now for which I'm trying to use the send/receive mode and I'm not getting the result I expected, and I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if they don't "do the right thing"...

From the chat log when I logged in just now: 2013-08-03 10:57:06 [INFO] [Minecraft-Client] [CHAT] [MagicBees] A new version is available: 2.1.1 2013-08-03 10:57:06 [INFO] [Minecraft-Client] [CHAT] Introducing Tinker's Construct bees! Ardite, Cobalt, and Manahma-er, Manyullyn bees! (Doot doo...

I'm buzzing around the nether when I see... this guy. And I'm like... "who... what... wtf?" That's right, a zombie pigman, in an MPS helmet. Armed with... a wrench. Of all things. Where's he going? What does he have to fix? Film at 11.

In my current world, I'm trying to scrounge up ender pearls, so I decided to try MFR auto-spawners for the first time. The short version of the story is, I've got a bunch of animal pens, using fences, with the appropriate MFR blocks in the appropriate places. Everything works fine, the only...

So a while ago (a long while, in relative terms) I made myself a Tinkers Construct scythe. I used it a lot, for clearing a bunch of leaves or something. It broke at some point. I even had moss on it, but I kind of intentionally broke it, I figured it would just stop working until the durability...

Subject mostly says it... what are the options (beyond a Redstone Energy Cell) for storing MJ? I get the sense that MJ-related tools and mods are more of a use-it-dont-lose-it deal, but I like having lots of everything on hand. I'm a hoarder extroardinaire. I want lots... of... everything...

What would be a good source of documentation or info for Factorization 0.7.37? The Minecraftforum post still has info for the older versions (but a download link for the latest). The Factorization wiki doesn't even mention some of the new blocks, and the changelog stops at 0.7.21...

My T5 zombie spawner generates a lot of damaged armour pieces, so I've got helms, chests, legs and boots of gold, leather, iron and chainmail, piling up all over the place. Because I'm a stingy bugger and can't stand to throw anything away, I've actually been manually repairing the pieces, and...

I can never quite find the right block I want to use for flooring. Well, actually I can, it would typically be one of the metals... iron or tin are good, but I just dont have enough of either to lay down entire floors with it, even if I microblock them down to covers. Kind of related to the...

A while ago, someone in a thread (I think it was Saice) mentioned how he liked digging looong straight tunnels, found it quite relaxing, almost a sort of meditation. And just now, I was sitting here for the nth time, *manually* draining yet another giant puddle-o-lava from underneath my home...

First attempt at a multifarm. I read up on it, watched a video, did everything I'm supposed to (I think). This all-manual multifarm hydrates dirt that I put up, but it doesn't seem to do anything else. It even planted some carrots, which the forestry web page says that manual farms won't do...

I recently started tinkering with Applied Energistics, and I have a pretty (I think) straightforward setup. ME controller, ME drive with three storage cells (64k, 4k, 1k), ME access terminal, and an import bus hooked up to an ender chest. So I happily pumped tons of stuff into the AE...

So I have 3 tier 5 soul shards: Blazes, Zombies, and Skeletons. I stuck them all in a giant box, carefully engineered (meaning, I actually died several times while building it... don't ask) for the purpose. For the benefit of science, and the community, I offer some info that everyone but me...

So I'm trying to use a turtle to do a simple (?) redstone pulse. Is this do-able? Shouldn't it be as simple as, say: redstone.setOutput("left", true) sleep(0.2) redstone.setOutput("left", false) and loop? It turns stuff on, but doesn't turn it off... what am I missing?

So it seems you can't fill the xycraft aluminum cans "manually" (by right-clicking on lava or water, say). Only through a liquid transposer. What use are they, in that case? I mean if I've already got the liquid in question over to a transposer (and presumably my piping system), then why do I...

I have a RP2 pump leading to a 5x5 iron tank, which links to another 3x3 tank. Both have been pumped chock-full of lava. The 3x3 tank connects to a thermal generator, which is parked next to an MFSU. Everything is working great. In fact, too great. I don't see the lava quantities in either...

I have a fair-sized, flat pool of lava source blocks that I'd like to "relocate", and I don't want to do it manually via the bucket-brigade or tin-cell-brigade. So I figure the best bet is to use a Redpower pump and grate. I've never tried this before though, and I'm wondering... if I position...
