Two questions, 1: do big enderIO capacitor banks cause lag? 2: what are your feelings on wisp auto spawning? You can't catch them in a safari net but you can grab spawners found around totems, though you can't pick up spawners in vanilla thaumcraft, but you can in thaumic tinkerer... Would using those to get essentia be bad sportsmanship?

1) I have never used the mod, but I heard storing them in the same chunk can cause massive issues. But if you have them spread over multiple chunks you should be fine (IIRC)
2) What pack are you playing? Unless this feature changed in 1.7 you can catch wisps in safari nets, and put them in the auto-spawner. And there is nothing wrong with using them to get the auram essentia. Using auto-spawners/moving spawners just makes it easier... especially if you have a recipe that requires a lot of auram
Yes, they do a LOT of ticking. FPS wise, you won't get hit that hard. But TPS? Hope your processor is up to it.
I'm playing FTB Unleashed. I've made a 5x9 Iron tank to store creosote. It's got 1.6 million "units" of creosote in it.
So I look into uses for the creosote oil, but the modpack doesn't seem to have gregtech, which disappointed me, because now I see that mod is pretty damned cool!
Anyway, so I can't made semifluid generators... What can I use the oil for?

Well you need creosote oil to make rails.
But IIRC you can also use it in liquid fueled fireboxes, and then use it to create MJ/RF (and if you have IC2) EU
If you want to use Gregtech you have to run Unhinged. It and Tinker's Construct had to be separated for behavioral reasons.
Or you could use a more updated pack... I saw no issues with them together in The 95 Pack (1.6.4)If you want to use Gregtech you have to run Unhinged. It and Tinker's Construct had to be separated for behavioral reasons.
If you haven't chopped the tree down, rubber respawns in the same spot, as long as you don't drain it
I use the treetap tool on them. Is there a better way?
I basically had to choose one of the packs when I started, I didn't know what they were.. Kinda sucks to lose all my stuff now to make a transfer. My beautiful machines
But I can't spend more time on a pack that isn't the best for me either. I want moar machines, and want them NAO! What's the 95 pack? It's not in the launcher, I think.

No it's not. It's a 3rd party pack I made ages agoI use the treetap tool on them. Is there a better way?

If you want to download it it uses the pack code "The95Pack" but I doubt you will be able to safely transfer your world over
Oh ok. I can try to find other avenues to keep me interested.
I have:
I have a ton of bees in a chest here.. Is that fun?
I have:
- Coke ovens that feed creosote oil into iron tank
- Smeltery... not sure what to do with this, just making seared stone.
- Rolling machine cooled by aqueous accumulator
- Centrifuges
- Generators, MFE's, Macerators and Electric furnaces.
- Lappack and diamond drill
- Enchantment table with book shelves around.
- Nether portal, haven't done much exploring here yet

It depends how much you like grindy stuff... After playing with Gendustry, I can't do vanilla bee breeding
Depending on how long you have been playing the pack it depends on what I would suggest.
I find that the FTB launcher packs (as they are now) are all only a good 3-10 hours (apart from GregTech packs, they take longer). However 3rd party packs, (I include the launcher ones for this) seem to have a lot more play time in them... especially ones that are HQM'd
Grindy:
waiting for bees to breed
not getting the right breed of bee, so doing it again
rinse and repeat
Whatever you really want it to be... sorta.I don't mind that. I haven't looked into the bee stuff at all yet
If you have extra bees (and maybe magic bees), which most packs with forestry have, then you are able to breed bees to get you almost every resource in the game. Oil? Yep. Redstone? Yep. Lava? Yep. Diamonds? YEP! More bees? YOU BETCHA!

Diamonds. Oil. Lapis. String. Honey. Soul Sand. Lava. Pretty much every product in the game, depending which bee mods you have installed.
Forestry's multifarm can be configured into an IC2 compliant rubber tree farm. And IC2 rubber trees will grow with bonemeal regardless of how close other trees are, provided there is nothing above the saplings. So basically, you can plant an extremely dense field of rubber tree trunks by bonemealing a sapling, clearing out the leaves, bonemealing another sapling, and so on.
Even a minimum size multifarm set up like that will fill a barrel of sticky resin in just a few hours. And that full barrel will make three full barrels of rubber. Good luck using that up
