    How to drain liquid DNA from iron tank?

    I want to upgrade my game client but I've read all my liquids in tanks will disappear (again) due to changes in Forge, so I've been emptying my tanks into beeswax capsules (I have over 120k beeswax, might as well use it for something) Those capsules won't take liquid DNA (or cells or cans...

    Pure bee, what the heck am I doing wrong??

    I built a pair of princesses with the exact same traits- one vis, one edenic. Only 4 possible drones that way: V-V, V-E, E-V and E-E, I figured if I ever saw a drone that didn't stack it must have pure in it. Then I bred up another princess and have been trying for dozens of generations to get...

    Mod versions [Ultimate]

    As I've kind of settled on the fact any 1.5+ update is going to be way in the future I figured I'd do my own update to Ultimate using the latest versions of mods available. Unfortunately, all I seem to be able to find is lists of which mods are in the pack and not which versions. Even the...

    Liquid dye question

    I've spent the last couple days trying to upgrade my world to the latest version and switch it to ultimate instead of mindcrack. I've had to resolve a lot of disappearing blocks and machines, and I think I've got them all now except for liquid dyes. All my tanks of the stuff are empty and I...

    3x3 piston door using redpower?

    I've seen a few using vanilla, this one seems to be the best: Does anybody know if it's possible to make the control system smaller using redpower?

    Industrial blast furnace & grinder

    I built both of these multiblock structures, and found I can attach the "machines" to all 4 sides. The machines take up to 128 EU/t each, should I power each one from it's own MFE to get full speed or will one MFE be able to feed all 4? If I need 4 MFEs, do I need 4 MV transformers or will one...

    U.S.S. Hamster [WIP]

    Original post: Time for a massive update! After a couple false starts, I've been working on this ship fairly steadily for the last 2 weeks. Screenshots below. Front of the ship, I'll build the bridge here soon. My factory is currently producing reinforced glass to finish the upper dome...

    Chicken farm assistance requested

    I'm building my vanilla chicken farm, but decided to fully automate it. The mechanics of the structure work great, I've built it many times. I need some assistance with the logic as I'm still not great with circuits. The dispensers shoot eggs at the stone, chickens drop into the water and...

    Favorite and most hated machines?

    My most hated? Just built tonight and already I HATE it: My absolute favorite! [spoiler] The packager All my xycraft gems and auto-processed ingots get sent to the chest seen on the left. Filters pull out items when I get a stack of 9, and they get sent back into my auto-sorting system...

    Is there a machine?

    That can accept items from bc pipes and eject them into RP tubes with a color without needing a redstone signal? Like a relay with color added.

    Sorting wall overkill??

    38 barrels each row (can't fit all in ss until I move the machinery where the old wall is)

    Ohhhh the poor texture pack artists...

    http://www.minecraftforum.net/news/721-13w02a-snapshot-ready-for-testing/ Well, after I stopped laughing I thought- at least they don't have to do new packs every time there's an update because players will see sonething for new blocks. That's a good change.

    Was I the only one?

    Most of the day, yesterday, I couldn't get on the forums here- I kept getting redirected to some kind of "cache" service (cloud something or other) that had nothing cached. Looking around today, I see lots of people were posting yesterday. Just curious. I already ran a malware check on my PC.

    Unsupported compression method

    I downloaded the latest version of mindcrack server.zip and got several of those errors when trying to unzip it. 7zip then freezes up on server start.sh. Deleted and re-downloaded twice and same errors. Using 7zip 9.20 on Windows 7

    What am I missing? (lava pumping station)

    Probably something so stupid simple, I'll facepalm when somebody points it out. Station ran out at it's last spot and I'm moving it to a new location. The problem- it's working great except for getting cells out of the transposer- they just won't output to the filter. The filter is cycling...

    Coolant (liquid)

    Working on my gravi-chestplate, I need some 60k coolant cells. I can either go through a dozen steps to craft them manually, or according to NEI I can just fill an empty cell with liquid coolant in a liquid transposer. What mod is coolant from and how do I make it? I haven't had much luck...

    Is there a way to request a modpack?

    Seeing the MLP one there is ok, but my son asked if there is one available for one of the pokemon themed mods. I told him I'd try and put something together this weekend but it doesn't hurt to ask :)

    Brain in a jar is creepy...

    ...looking Even more than that. When I signed into my world this morning, there was a pig running around my house. No big deal, I figured I'd catch him later and start my pig farm :) My base layout is my thaumcraft room, some stairs a small platform and I was down some more stairs around the...
