Couple DW20 newb questions

[dhawk312]

New to FTB and currently doing a DW20 playthrough to get the hang of the different mods and what have you. I bounced around a few mods before settling on DW20 and I have a couple questions.

1) Is there anything in DW20 comparable to Random Things' Advanced Item Collector? The vacuum hopper doesn't pull things through a full block. Or, can I add this mod to the pack without any ID conflicts?

2) I wanted to add the Carpenters Blocks mod but there were ID conflicts. I have no idea how to fix this---these mods are crazy complex for a newb. I'm sure someone else added this mod and can send me the info though.

Why not just look up how to change the ids on youtube?

Dump in all the mods you want to add(ensure correct versions and if they need core mods and get them too, details on the DL pages). It will crash saying conflicting ID's. You'll get a .txt file in your install folder called ID Conflicts. It will suggest to you some free ID ranges.

Go into config, find the mods you added and open up their config files, change the ID's into the ranges suggested.

Rinse and repeat if you don't get it right

I once wrote a quick how-to for cleaning up ID conflicts, with images. It's here:

As long as you have NEI, it's easier than you think it is!
