    Haven't played FTB in a while, what pack should I get?

    Hey guys, looking to get back into modded minecraft. Last time I was playing was on Ultimate pack in like 1.4 or 1.5 I think. What's a comparable mod pack to Ultimate? I liked having a large variety of magic and tech mods, but I also value a balanced game that isn't easily broken by inter-mod...

    Ugocraft mod

    Has anyone else seen docm's showcase of a server using this mod? Check it out here: The rotating walls, ships, submarines, elevators, and drawbridges look amazing. The only thing we have that comes close is RedPower's frame machines. I'm curious if anyone has had any luck running this mod...

    Dark Aura Node + MFFS Wisp Zapper help?

    So I've decided that venturing into the barrow mound next to my house to clear out wisp infestations is dangerous and foolish. I'm now endeavoring to build a glass sphere around the aura node to encase any invading wisps and an MFFS system to zap them at the press of a button. Currently my...

    Map help?

    I made a map and expanded it with paper to the largest size. I then explored the world until I filled the map out. A week later I went to check my map to see where a desert was in the east of my base, but it was blank and unresponsive. Is there a fix or a way to prevent this happening?

    Compact Automated Alviary without messy pipes?

    Hey guys, I've almost got enough royal jelly to make my first Alviary and I'd like to set it up with some pure Industrious or Imperial in such a way that it will keep reusing the princess and a drone while shipping the rest of the drones/combs/pollen/jelly inside my bee workshop. A "set and...

    Windows .exe Map (item) glitching out

    I made a map item, full sized it and filled it out. Then I made a copy of it. The map and it's copy ended up in the same chest and stacked. Since then they're both blank and unresponsive. Is there anyway to fix them or should I hop back into my zeplin and make a new one?

    Fixing a map?

    Hey guys, I recently used a Traincraft zeplin to map the area around my base, was probably the quickest map I've ever filled out. Sadly it seams to have broken since I accidentally shift clicked it into a chest with the copy of that map. Since they stacked together, neither map seams to work...

    Best setup for a solar powered GT Matterfab?

    I've been feeding my matterfab off my machine room power supply for a while now (feeding it manually with stacks of scrap/scrapboxes) and I've got enough UU to make a Ultimate solar. I'd like to set up my matter fabricator on my roof, ideally in a tightly packed and space efficient way. Problem...

    Dark Flux Nodes

    Hey guys, I built my base next to one of those barrow mounds from thaumcraft because I liked being able to easily gather wisp essences. I'm curious about how exactly it works. Normally it seams to build up flux (it's chunk loaded on a server) and has a few wisps for me to kill when I get home...

    Feeding Station not working with Carrots/Seeds

    Hey guys, I recently set up a few animal cages with feeding stations above them. The wheat ones work just fine, but the carrots and seeds for pigs and chickens aren't being used in those pens. They're small pens with the feeding stations positioned centrally about 3 blocks off the ground...

    Automated carrot and potato farming

    Hey guys, I just started setting up farms for my new base with forestry and I noticed they don't have a machine specifically for carrots and potatoes. Does the "Farm" machine work for them as well as wheat? If not, does anyone else have any advice for an automated farm of roughly the same size...

    World compatibility with future updates?

    Is it confirmed that the addition of upcoming mods (namely Red Power) will render current worlds from beta pack A or the magic pack incompatible with mod packs (like the FTB ultimate or DW20 pack), or with future versions of those packs? Right now my server is operating under the premise that...

    I may be stuck in a corrupt chunk.

    Hey guys, I'm having an issue with my server. I was running through a mystcraft age looking for a new place to set up for mining and suddenly the world stopped loading in the distance. I nearly ran off the edge of the world and then the server crashed. Now when I log in, it loads a small area...

    Upgrading Electrical Engines?

    I've been experimenting with electrical engines in creative mode trying to verify the effects of upgrades. So far I haven't been able to see any difference from adding any type of circuit board or electron tube. I've tried varying the input connection from low to medium voltage, and this doesn't...

    BC Pipes/Gates advice?

    Does anyone know a good guide or source of information on the usage of gates and piping items around with BC? I tried the BC wiki, but it's fairly limited on explaining how to properly set up an autarch(sp) gate to pump items out of a storage if the intended designation is empty. Currently I...

    Updated mods?

    I was wondering how often the FTB launcher is scheduled to check for the latest version of mods. I noticed it's using out of date versions of many mods (Gregtech, thermal expansion, etc.).
