i saw this thing in a thread. "i messed around with my Nvidia control panel and told it to use my GPU when im running java" how exactly do you do that???

It is only something you need to worry about afaik if you have a system with an onboard GFX chip and then a regular GFX card mounted. If you have such a system Java would most likely be running off the onboard GFX chip which would be vastly inferior to the GFX card.

Question:
I'm trying to get a set-up using remote IO and applied energistics, but cannot find any documentation about how the applied energistics upgrade works. Does it make the AE system recognise the IO block, or does it allow the IO block to access the AE system remotely?

Hey guys, i dont know if any of you are familiar with DartCraft, but i have not been able to do a lot of things with it and it is bothering me. First, the Force wrench won't work. It is saying "Force 0" and i don't know how to provide it with fuel. Also, i am trying to make force liquid using the squeezer but i can't power my squeezer! I have tried redstone engine, the stirling engine won't even work with coal, and the steam engine doesn't work! Can someone help me?[DOUBLEPOST=1393692744][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, i have not been able to use my force rod the way i have seen in the tutorials. For example, you are supposed to be able to right click leather armor on the ground and it becomes force armor and i couldn't make the force infuser.

First of a redstone engine will not power anything more than something like a BC pipe. Forgot about powering anything more complex with it.
Second, in newer versions the BC and forestry machines have an energy threshold that you need to reach before they will actually run. I would think that would be 2MJ for the squeezer. A stirling engine only supplies 1MJ, so you probably see the problem. Use more than one or use a more powerful engine/dynamo. The steam engine(dont know which one out of the many types of steam engines available in the many modpacks and versions) probably requires steam! from something like a boiler. Try and look up the wikis for these engines to see what they actually need and do.

To add to what rhn said, you're watching the wrong tutorials for Dartcraft if you're playing with it in 1.6.4. There were many fundamental changes to how Dartcraft works from 1.5.2 to 1.6.4.

First, you have to power all your tools/weapons/armor with force. Either fill them up in a force infuser or by holding it in your hand, press f, and place force crystals in the slot there.

Force armor is now made with force ingots in the same pattern as normal armor.

If I put two ender quarries in a single fenced area will it run twice as fast?

 

[Adonis0]

To this one, I'd say go into creative and test it

It will either run twice as fast, or not run at all since it's not a continuous fence, it's broken by a single ender quarry (From the perspective of the other quarry)

Or one could mine the area and the other one will just pick up dirt

What is the base block for the "Cloud block" from Chisel?

Cannot find the base block in NEI for the life of me.

create a cloud in a bottle using glass and nether quartz and throw it like a splash potion. it'll create cloud where it lands

In Monster, is it possible to pick up spawners? Seems like grinder kills from natural spawners are the way to go for a positive influx of mob essence for use in grinder/autospawning setups in MFR (used to be that the grinder would return more essence than the autospawner required iirc).

Most people use cursed earth spawners because if the range on vanilla spawners

Is there a clientside disable ITEM rendering config somewhere in Monster 1.0.11? I know theres one for blocks with factorization, I can't connect to a server I play on because of my Ichor Wand.

I had a similar problem with multipart on a mcpc+ server recently, crashed me for holding it, but I was able to log in and play by simply spamming a different number key as I logged on so that the item I was holding would be switched before it got to render (which would have caused the crash). Might I suggest you try the same?

that seems unlikely to work as any sort of rendering of the Ichor wand hotbar, inventory, chest, world drop entity will do a client side crash. I've tested on multiple new SSP worlds by going back and forth monster 1.0.10 and 1.0.11. Its easy to fix in SSP by updating TT but not so much on SMP. What I haven't tested is disabling item rendering altogether.

There is an item in MFR itself called the portaspawner which does just this
Else, there's other things that can do it, force wrench from dartcraft is a notable example, gravity gun as well.
Else forbidden magic which is a thaumcraft addon you can make spawners

I'm not entirely sure what mods are in monster, so I've just added all the ways I know of to do this

Also guys, how do i power a force infuser?

 

[trajing]

How would I set up a logpipes remote orderer to an ender chest so as to have all my items with me as I go adventuring?

 

[VVRaider]

Which mod is it that overrides the vanilla Bedrock? Seems to be Factorization or Thaumic Tinkerer, but could not find config options for either. The Bedrock I found in my world was identified as being from Factorization. When I looked into Factorization's config the ID the bedrock had was the same as Factorization's "Fractured Bedrock." Any tips on how to get the vanilla Bedrock back?

EDIT: Currently using the Direwolf20 pack, 1.0.16

Buildcraft Engines or TE Dynamos (pretty sure, I haven't actually used DartCraft in 1.6 yet).
