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

[Jason McRay]

Does anyone have some sort of progression guide? So far all I've done is make a coke oven for charcoal and looked tirelessly for ore in an extreme hills biome. I'm kind of not sure what to start crafting or how I'm supposed to gather more ore...than just with a stone pick.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_suVZdSI91JimQTsgR3ejRt1HbxOM87Sh1OO2Fou6zM/preview?sle=true - It is VERY WELL written, I have it also printed on my desk

Anyway... For others little peak on what I am currently working on:

- It will be clickable aswell

Question: Do you want the required mining levels for ores and mining levels for pickaxes in the ore guide?

I think that might be nice.

 

[DaviePatriots]

Thanks bunches for the information guys! One last thing, can anyone tell me the difference between the impure piles of iron/copper/etc vs crushed I get when mining the ores? Can both be grinded or doubled?

Agree with @gallowglass That would be quite welcome, yes

In general, they can't be "doubled" after impure or crushed. Only the whole ore blocks can be "doubled". The exception are things which benefit greatly from the Chemical Bath, such as Silver, Gold, Magnetite, and Copper. The Sifter can also almost crushed double gem ores, like Lapis and Diamond.

And, crushed ores are higher up in the chain, closer to the raw ore, than the impure dusts are.

A lot of GregTech is centered around the convoluted ore-processing chain.Getting closer to optimal efficiency requires climbing the tiers and using exponentially more power. But, most of the gains can be had with just LV (32v) machines like the hammer, macerator, ore washer, chemical bath, sifter, and centrifuge.

Hmmm ok. So why am I only getting the impure and crushed and not the ore block. Is it because I'm using a stone pick or because I've just mined the "small" versions of the ore?

The "small". Even a Silk Touch pickaxe won't drop the ore block. The ore blocks are only found in the large veins. And, large is an understatement. You will know it when you've found a large

Multimine causes the same problems that smart moving does, ive noticed - i get the desyncs just mining with my staff sometimes though, and we dont even have multimine do we @MigukNamja ?

Staff? what staff?

Hopefully its a different problem; would love if the diamond-drill issue had a simple fix.

 

[MigukNamja]

Staff? what staff?

It's a Thaumcraft thing. You wouldn't understand.

No Multimine AFAIK.

true

I tried to a find meme picture for 'It's a ______ thing. You wouldn't understand."

But, I failed.

I've spent the last week in bee-breeding hell. I need a hug.

Another sneak peak on the Ore Gen book:


Now last two the most annoying parts.... Mixed veins and propper list of Level = THIS tool

 

[Azkeel]

Can you add some kind of ore radar too ? I still can't find damn tungstate and iridium


The book looks great

 

[Jason McRay]

Nope
(remake the world with same seed, type "/cofh clearblocks Azkeel 100 200 100 lava water stone dirt grass sand gravel" without the quotes, prey you dont have sh*t computer, wait few seconds, and enjoy the view)

This.

My.
BOOMSTICK!

ok and I guess its good for mining then

did you ever resolve your crash issues tyriael?
