    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Yo Jason, any plans for adding Galacticraft addons like Extra Planets? I would love to mine iridium on Neptune some day! Cheers for the most epic modpack in existence though!

    So this whole Gregtech thing.

    I'm just wondering why the FTB team don't just resolve this by making two packs unleashed successor packs, one with GregTech and one without, and have configs available for the GregTech one so people can choose between easy, medium and hard difficulties. With the new launcher that will be able...

    What's YOUR favourite power source?

    I never knew you could burn blaze rods at all...this is a remarkable revelation.. along with the infernal furnace (thaumcraft) I think I might make a fully blaze powered base...

    Specific Rooms in the ole' base

    If you have no infrastructure whatsoever (with machines and power) then make 1 room an IC2 power room, another a BC power room. Have 1 room as storage, 1 room for machines (close to the power room ofc) A bedroom, a farm, an enchanting room and a thaumcraft 3 research lab. I think that's 8 :P

    What's YOUR favourite power source?

    So what power source (can be from any mod) do you tend to lean to the most when it comes to finally making your base? Personally, I like Geothermals being powered by a BC pump pumping lava from the nether through an enderchest. For BC power, something about hobbyist engines, they're just awesome.

    What comes after automation?

    I can't even stick to a world long enough to have basic machines automated...but if I were you, um...do all of the above.

    Collected Guides Thread

    I think it'd be great if added to the list were some good tutorials on how to setup simple and complex power generation systems for main mods such as Buildcraft, IndustrialCraft2 and Forestry. They usually sum up the basics really well that is otherwise spread throughout numerous wiki pages and...

    Getting Magma Cream

    I actually never use rails in my minecraft worlds, too tedious for me and there seems to be not much practical benefit when you have portal guns.... and IC2 teleporters for the endgame, and also just a good ol' map and walking boots and you should be fine :D

    GregTech

    I think it adds really cool stuff, but goes a bit too far in making a lot of other things higher tiers than they need to be. Good end-game material but needs a little bit more tweaking and balancing.

    Feed the Beast server 14+ mature vanilla

    IGN: Excalibur42 14+ Age?: I'am 14, turning 15 in February next year. Agree to the rules?: Yes of course, the basics and the sort, nothing difficult or new. Are you mature?: I've been told I need to have more fun and be a bit more laid back, actually people tell me that every day, people...

    Gregs-Config-Change 1.4.5

    I agree with that, but I think something also overlooked is water and even wind mills. I understand that there being no real air currents in minecraft, wind mills are difficult to get right, but water mills should definently be buffed a fair bit more and again with GregTech be made a bit more...

    Gregs-Config-Change 1.4.5

    With some careful balancing I think having solar panels still expensive to make but have them generate more energy would work better than it does already, less CPU intensive having a few powerful solar panels than 7 or so solar flowers. I know there is that better solar panels add-on for IC2...

    Forestry Crates- Uses?

    So i've known about forestry crates for some time now, how to make them and the sort, but I just wanna know if they're actually useful and what you guys think. IMHO there doesnt appear to be any use except condense stuff that can't already be made into blocks (ie. you can't make a block out of...

    FTB Main modpack release date request

    Lol. Wow I only just realised how much I missed redpower....mainly cause of the wires and lamps. Bloody hell those lamps were cool. Better than luminators by a mile.

    Gregs-Config-Change 1.4.5

    I do agree with some things GregTech changes such as the water mill and solar panel recipes, if you didn't already know solar panels are damn expensive in real life and renewable energy power generation in the real world is quite a fair bit more expensive than the usual fossil fuel...

    Will all the mods currently in forgecraft be in the Ultimate pack?

    Funnily enough I just did with the current beta build of FTB, so that I don't have to use bloody steel for mining drills... Ain't nobody got time fo dat...

    Gregs-Config-Change 1.4.5

    This. This, so much. I first saw gregtech when I saw it in the mod list for FTB, after a bit of researching I was like Lightning rods! :) Fusion Reactors!:) But then I get to the game and I try to make a normal mining drill.....:mad: steel?! I really just want the awesome stuff and not...

    You have a choice to make. If you had to pick just one mod...

    I have never even looked into Thaumcraft, but it's hard to choose between Redpower and IndustrialCraft2.... I'd go with IC2 cause it's a classic, my favourite mod and has been for a long time, played the original IC back when the only public discussion of it was Albaka's awesome thread were he...
