    Download working 1.6.2-1.6.4 modpacks?

    That was an issue for myself as well, which is why I have been trying to be very careful in my modpack to balance reward with risk. I am doing all the config tweaks to make things balanced so others, like yourself, don't have to. So far I have had a LOT of chatter about "Minecraft is fun...

    Download working 1.6.2-1.6.4 modpacks?

    You can customize the loot chests in BattleTowers. I did so in my modpack, so I know it is possible. There is also another mod called Custom Loot Chests that adjusts the values in all loot chests of the various types I use to customize things. So, it isn't a big deal, really.

    Download working 1.6.2-1.6.4 modpacks?

    I have been working on a modpack for two months hoping that FTB would have updated to allow 1.6.2 modpacks. When I got the modpack done and FTB had still not updated to allow 1.6.2 modpacks I applied over on the ATLauncher site and my Explorer's Modpack was approved over there. Only one mod...

    My Problem with Minecraft Recently

    I made a new modpack myself. It is using 1.6.2, so I can't release it on the FTB Launcher (still waiting to hear it's updated), but I have released it on the ATLauncher which does allow modpacks using 1.6.2. Mining is no longer boring because my Explorer's modpack adds in spawners randomly...

    Tutorial Videos

    How to turn off engines charging up a Redstone Power Cell when the power cell is full. Exactly what do you need about Mystcraft? It is a very large mod so there are different aspects. 1) Quick ways to collect pages (without cheating). 2) How to craft all the blocks needed to craft books. 3)...

    Collected Guides Thread

    I have been trying to compile VIDEOS together of specific help guides together, as opposed to links and tables and similar stuff. http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/tutorial-videos.23425/ This way, videos can be kept together and Spoilers used to identify what they are about, and people...

    Tutorial Videos

    I have been doing some short tutorial videos about exact things to do in FTB, but I cannot find a decent section on these forums for tutorial videos. So, I am going to post mine here, and if others make subject-specific videos they can add theirs as replies (be sure and use spoilers or this...

    ME Interface block (Tutorial)

    Ah, so in addition to interfacing with machines to process items (like ores, as an example), the ME Interface can also act as a sort of stand-alone chest that always stays refreshed with items. Can be quite useful for those pesky empty cells. Wait, if you already have empty cells in the...

    ME Interface block (Tutorial)

    But when I put an processing recipe (like 8 copper ingots -> 1 copper plate) into the MAC, it is red, as opposed to when I put it in the ME Interface next to the compressor. Are you sure it will work?

    ME Interface block (Tutorial)

    Ok, the upper-right area is, essentially, a 'chest'. The upper-LEFT area is a "make sure you have this many of this item made if there is space on the right" So, items 'placed' (since it cannot actually hold items) in the upper-left hand corner will attempt to be crafted IF there is a pattern...

    ME Interface block (Tutorial)

    Ah, thank you! That clears that up. Now I can make an updated video with this new information.

    ME Interface block (Tutorial)

    Let me see if I understand you correctly, please. If I was to put a stack of 64 stone in the upper left-hand corner of an ME Interface positioned above a furnace (for example), it would automatically smelt enough cobble to keep a full stack of stone in the upper-right hand corner (without my...

    ME Interface block (Tutorial)

    Ok, I had searched these forums, and Googled everywhere else, and couldn't find a decent video of anyone explaining how the hell to use an ME Interface block from Applied Energetics. (To be frank, I didn't even know it was a placeable block until I saw a reference to it in the AE wiki as a way...

    Super-Fast Quarry Setup in FTB:Ultimate

    I own the server and don't limit my players. For server admins, the tick time on that world, with a total of 8 quarries going, increases by about 4ms with all of these running (the lack of significant piping, I believe, makes it easier on the server). Of course, my entire server is on a RAMDrive...

    Super-Fast Quarry Setup in FTB:Ultimate

    I have been very disappointed with all the various 'speedy' quarry setups I have seen over the Internet. Most are either too slow (but reliable), too unreliable (but slow), or require a nearby power generation source (which means building platforms for them, or not mining as much as reasonably...

    Applied Energistics storage help

    I am very impressed with the AE mod. I run the server myself and my server tick speed (after I had converted the majority of my system to AE from RP) went from 30ns to 7ns (running 4 quarries, many chunkloaders, etc). It isn't as impressive visually, with a lack of objects flying around, but...

    Applied Energistics storage help

    Depending on which modpack you are using, you can direct the excessive stuff to deep storage units while keeping the less-frequent stuff in normal, unformatted storage cells. Video of when I did my setup. I later set things up to connect to my deep storage units (and I am thankful the mod...

    Phicksur' YouTube Channel

    Hello, I have been running a YouTube channel for well over a year now. I started out just doing some Let's Plays with friends, recordings of our progress in building a giant city (on hold for now), then tried my hand at a dramatic series, have done several maps, played around in Adventure...
