yeah, since you've removed half the pack, it's not surprising that you're missing some recipes.


I figured you've read the title of this thread....? Lol. But yeah, it ain't surprising to me either.

It's been a very interesting experience so far, without dealing with anything EU related.

I'm absolutely IC2 free as well right now but I left it all in the pack. I don't really miss any of it and especially don't miss building IC2 chips :)

By the way, since the steel recipe doesn't come from Mekanism but rather an UE based mod, my argument still stands a bit.

Are there alternatives to fly without using IC2 jetpacks? I know that MPS is capable of doing so, but it seems that costs are high for that mod and I can't seem to find a single emerald yet.

I'd like to traverse the nether but will hold out until I can get some sort of flying capability going.

And man, I love Tinker's constructs so much. The hammer is ridiculously epic!

OverPowerCraft I mean Dartcraft has the wing sword stuff and the armour with a feather to fly.
The thaumcraft harness.

If you're after emeralds use F3 to find an extreme hills biome, then start using your hammer to bore holes in the hills. Shouldn't take too long to find some.

or make a villager farm and an automated wheat and chicken farm to get it as a renewable resource.

I presume that he's having trouble finding a village, because once you've found one, emeralds are trivial.


This. Without a jetpack to begin with, it's hard to travel far distances because you run the risk of dying, etc.

I'm slowly going up the Thermal Expansion tech tree, in hopes of getting the machinery necessary to get bees going. Once I have bees, I can get emeralds and I won't be worried then.

I do have a quarry right now and the means to power it, I just don't have a means to scale large distances to find oceans for me quarry out. Working on an open body of water without a jetpack is so disabling......

When it comes time for me to start a new game on Unleashed, I do:

1. Run until I find sheep for wool.
2. Make bed, gather food, temp shelter.
3. Basic mining for early supplies, mainly looking for iron, aluminum, and copper.
4. Smelt 3 iron, make a bucket, hunt for lava.
5. Gather enough clay, sand, and gravel to make a smeltery.
6. Use smeltery to make two iron tough tool rods for a TiCo backpack.

Once I have my backpack, I break everything down and run. Keep the bed out to sleep, continue looking for surface resources, etc...but mainly I'm just looking for a village. I usually set up shop somewhere near the first village I find so I have a steady supply of emeralds.

At that point I haven't invested much so I don't really care if I die. But it's really not that hard to not die if you pay attention to your surroundings, stay on the surface, and stay out of suicidal biomes.

Golden apples and potions of weakness aren't that expensive? I rarely have issues finding villages even in BoP worlds but if you have you can just capture two testificate zombies and cure them?

I only kill zombies. but If you don't have a jet pack, an MPS suit with Jump and Sprint assist, plus glider wings is an awesome substitute. As long as you can avoid getting stuck under things, you can go just about anywhere without significant issue.

So, after reading this mesh of the mysterious steel dust along this thread, i will clear some things out.
Okay, Firstly, the stell dust is added by MFFS Version 3.1.0 developed by the new mod developer CALCLAVIA.
(His API gets used by Mekanism by the way, who deos not lnow Universal Electricity (UE) or Mekanism, should definitely check it, its very awesome).
After the original MFFS developer Thunderdark gave his mod into calclavias hands, the mod split into two ways.
The 3.1.0 version of calclavia (wich i normally prefer) and the other version that improved graphics and some stuff, but kept the way it worked (basically just this whole extractor stuff). And calclavia and other UE mod authors also got "Basic Components" included, wich adds a cable, a generator and stuff like this, and also, the fame STEEL DUST.
So in the great picture of things, calclavia adds a very easy and nice api for mod authors to easily code new mods :D
I hope i eliminated this randomness of this thread lol.

Dont you need at least an emerald first to make the table before you can even mod the suit? I walked about 2000 blocks yesterday and was able to find an extreme hills biome. I guess it's time to quarry there.

I also found a portal gun! Quick question, can portal guns get broken? In my last server (mindcrack), my buddy somehow managed to damage the portal fun and it no longer had blue/orange and only opened blue portals.

I'm just curious how this happened. I don't want to walk 2000 blocks only to find that I'm screwed and cant portal back lol.

And....I have discovered....solar boilers for steam!!!!! Cant believe I forgot about this.

Smelting a portal gun will lock it to the colour it last fired. You have to acquire another portal gun and smelt it on the other colour then combine them to restore full functionality.
