Thanks Reika! Those commands worked. Was a little annoying getting all the progress back (have yet to find a new underground shielded area with the pylon.. Secret burrow? idk)
As an aside the crafting recipes are not showing up in the lexicon, although they still work if I should be able to see them in the lexicon through NEI.

Here is an imgur album of some early things that should have the recipes just to illustrate my point. http://imgur.com/a/D9KOY

This isn't a big problem I'm just not sure what happened that could have caused this (note it also does this in new worlds as well so I think my install or configs got borked due to the account change and hopefully v7 fixes it)

Regardless crafting, and progress is working again so I'm happy just thought I would let you know. Also can't wait for v7 release. Hopefully I can just switch out the versions without any issue =)

Say...is there anything special I need (other than a casting complex, which I just completed) to draw power from pylons to use with crafting other than repeaters? I have a zambarau pylon near my base, and a repeater line of the appropriate colour leading straight to my complex, but I'm not seeing any power draw...

Hm...thinking on it, maybe I need to replace one of the kuro runes in the complex with a zambarau one and give the repeater on top a whack with my crystal-adorned stick.

Yes, those repeaters around the table need to actually connect. :P

Eh, I'm just not sure why the crafting recipes disappeared from the lexicon for me. I went through all the progression in a new world to the point where I should have seen a few crafting recipes (flower, brewery, etc) and they were not there. I'm going to blame it on migrating my account to mojang since the only config I've changed for any of your mods is reducing machine volume to .3 from 1.0

That is stored on your player data, so...

So because I use alot of multichromatic relays as long as I have one of each color around I should be fine?

If you can't be bothered perfectly optimizing the pathing, just build a square or diamond shape with four multi-relays around the casting thing, making sure there's at least one of each sort of monochromatic repeater built into the casting thing itself and the relays should be able to sort themselves out.

This is precisely what I did, in part because I also needed my repeaters to reach my nearby infusion table as well. Probably a bit more lossy than an optimized route, but I've never been one to crunch down on efficiency to that level.
 
Because my computer is not the very best, I removed my old relays and replaced them with multi-relays. I thought they would be easier on performance. I did originally run alot of my lines together and then run about 3 or 4 relays next to each other all the way to the house. Essentially there would be large branches that had 3 or 4 color relays running with each other, and then each color would branch off to its appropriate pylon.

But now I just replaced things with multi-relays to make everything easier.

Multi-relays are generally worse for performance.
 
So...I may be stupid here, but do I need relays or repeaters to draw power from a pylon to a casting complex? I have a line of repeaters (zambarau) leading from a pylon to my complex, but I'm seeing no ley line between them. Then again, I'm assuming they show all the time, instead of when one is drawing power, sooooooo...hm.

You won't see it do anything unless it needs to draw power to create something. One way to test it is to make a storage crystal and the device that holds it, place the device on your table in the center of the complex, and insert the storage crystal into the device. If power goes in, you're good. If not, it's missing line of sight. At least that's how I tested it early on, heh.

Aaaah, thankee! I'll need to move the output chest to the side, though...been using it to make crafting go by a little quicker, lol.
