Quick question on Steam boilers in 1.6.

Does anyone know if they accept liquid coal and if so, what HU value it gives?

With Iguana Tweaks (in Magic Farm 2), how do I replace parts on a tool? I've done it a couple of times but I can't remember the process. I'm trying to replace a flint shovel head with copper. I've tried in the repair and shovel making options in the Tool Station. I've also tried replacing a copper pick axe head with iron and I can't figure that out eiither.

Got it! Tool needs to be fully repaired first.

How does one make an advanced circuit that required lapis dust? Am I meant to play casino untill I get silktouch or what? The machines ive tried so far that can make lapis dust require an advanced circuit.

Im testing out a self-made modpack, but IC2 and gregtech is part of it. And many others, but even with all the others it seems lapis creation is hidden in some machine I have not yet realized. Or like I said.. silktouch. But I would not want that to be the only option.

Can't you centrifuge lapis into lapis dust and some other stuff?

Indus centrifuge required advanced circuit.

I might have to make a custom config if there is no rational way.. I might look at Bronze Age again, but afaik it had to be lapis ore.

Progression is really fucked up by default. GT needs an overhaul.

Oh, right. Been a long time since I played with GT.

Guess you'll need silk touch. I recommend using the Rockcutter as it automatically comes with Silk Touch.

Sadly that requires titanium and diamond dust. :D lol[DOUBLEPOST=1387334624][/DOUBLEPOST]
Java probably can't handle it. Too much space. Wait for FTB Lite. Or build your own Modpack.
You'll need 64bit to play.

4GB is plenty for modded MC. Or does 32bit Java not allow even that much? Im running 102 mods at 2.2GB. Id suggest turning view distance real low.

Oh Greg, lol. Just when I think I have a solution, he's way ahead of me.

If you have Thaumcraft and Thaumic Tinkerer you could get a Silk Cutter. Or you could just use one of the many mods that make enchanting not a roulette wheel.
