Sorry but this made me laugh.

A single redstone engine cant power a quarry try 2 coal engines. Also put a chest on top of the quarry so your resources don't splatter everywhere.
Also you should'nt be running a quarry this early game.
Hope I was helpful :)

Like everyone said, the Redstone engine wont cut it. The redstone engine is a very very low power engine only meant to do stuff like power wooden pipes etc. For anything more advanced than that you need more powerful engines.

In the newer versions of BC the machines have a minimum power threshold required to actually make them run. Not sure if this holds true for the quarry as well or what the threshold would be in that case, but a safe bet would be that you have to absolutely MINIMUM need to feed it 2MJ/t+(more than 2 stirling engines).

"Stacking" engines haven't worked properly for ages and you will end up with engines exploding(yes even redstone engines). And seeing as a Redstone engine working in red state produces a max of 0.08MJ/t(and forgetting any minimum power caps for the moment) it would be so ridiculously slow that anything else would be a better investment of resources/time.

Is there a Reason why Monster uses newer Mod versions than Tech World 2 ?
I would like to use newer RotaryCraft stuff in Techworld.
Thank you.

Thank you.
I have read that the 1.6.4 Packs will get one last update and will then freeze. Did that already happen, or will it update with the last updates of every mod?

Working on Ethanol Crystals in Rotarycraft. According to NEI, using the yeast with TC4 silverwood leaves will yield 64 sludge, but the machine won't run. It's within temperature range with water, yeast, silverwood leaves, and adequate power. Is there anything weird that i'm missing? I tried different leaves just to make sure it wasn't an issue with the fertilizer just not taking TC4 leaves, but it doesn't seem to like anything.

EDIT: So apparently, it just hates leaves. So much for efficiency.

Well, according to this the final update should be happening pretty soon (it said "within the week" 8 days ago), with another week for possible bug fixes.
