What is the point of the "middle tier" energy cells and conduits in TE3?

A single steam dynamo, leadstone energy cell and leadstone conduits are enough to power your machines long enough to make the higher tier redstone versions, the hardened conduit and hardened energy cell in the middle is skippable and largely obsolete.

The only time I ever build hardened conduits or energy cells is when cross-mod stuffs like PowerConverters recipes need them.

Im not really sure because i agree with you malicios_bloke, but i know I've seen where people like to use the middle tier, maybe to take it slow? Lol who knows!

more backpacks mod.
trying to create a Nuclear Engineers backpack. The NEI doesn't have a pattern for it. The pattern it seems to follow for most of the backpacks are string corners, chest middle, wool center top/bottom and its the left/right items that determine what type of backpack it is.
I've tried all the uranium ores, rods, coolant cells but I can't get the backpack to come up.

Anyone know what it is or have a link to it? can't find.
thanks!

I do wish that thermal expansion machines had over clocker type upgrades!

Does anyone know why i keep on getting chunk errors that don't go away. this is my 3rd world, redownloaded FTB countless times and give it 5 GB of ram. P.S. also have the newest version of optifine.

and give it 5 GB of ram.

You could start by lowering it to something reasonable like 2.5-3GB. More is not better.

Once I saw a video on youtube and the person was using something and he could see all his stuff and choose what he needed. Could someone tell me what block this could be and how to use it ? thx

They were probably the Applied Energestic using the wireless access terminal. Very popular in late game, almost required for using quarry plus's. I would highly recomend it because it adds a new type of automation to the game and takes out the stress of having looking for all of your stuff.

P.S. if you use AE -(applied energestic) you need a steady power source, disc drive and a ME terminal. You can find how to do all this stuff by searching Applied Energestics tutorial on you tube.

It's possible it's your problem.

k thanks, i tried it and it got rid of the chunk errors. i always thought more ram was better.

No, more RAM= longer garbage collection=more lag.

Not with Java. More is actually worse.

You should also note that the Java processes will be using around twice(or more) as much as you allocate to the game. So if you allocate 5GB you should expect Java to use around 10-12GB, which you need to make sure that you actually have. But as the other say, the more RAM you give the game, the more JAVA is allowed to crap up everything.

I would recommend 2GB for smaller packs, 2.5GB for larger packs. If you add texturepacks then up that to 2.5 and 3GB

Which mod is it that turns villagers into Jawas?

 

[Peewee]

Which mod is it that turns villagers into Jawas?

Its actually a texture pack, i think its the sphax pack!

Sphax texture pack maybe?

They look kinda Jawa-y with Pixel Perfection too.

 

[malicious_bloke]

So sphax comes with resources to change the sounds aswell then?

 

[Peewee]

Im not real sure, i dont play much with texture packs.[DOUBLEPOST=1401828333][/DOUBLEPOST]Does anyone know how to make a good mystcraft island age? For good frame rate?

No not inherently you would have to download the Sphax sound pack which would come with the sounds. A few ones do come standard though and I believe all mobs are supported so in your case this explains the "jawas" and their sounds.
