Hey guys,

Modpack: Horizons

How do I make this HSLA steel, I have a smeltery and I made myself a blast furnace but I don't have any gunpowder so now I was wondering if there was any other way making this HSLA steel.
For other furnaces and motors I also need HSLA steel so I can't go around it.

Please help!

Thanks, kabramo

No, only RotaryCraft adds and uses this material, and only the RotaryCraft blast furnace can produce it. Gunpowder can be gotten easily by killing creepers - a single gunpowder item should be good for several stacks of steel, if you use all the slots in the furnace simulataneously (or at least, it was when I last tried it). There are also several mods that add cheap crafting recipes for gunpowder.

Frankly, in two years of playing Minecraft, both vanilla nd modded, I have never, EVER had any world where I did not have any gunpowder ;) I'm more likely to throw the stuff into a void chest because I have too much of it.

If you install Reliquary you can never have too much gunpowder, the Destruction Catalyst eats it at a prodigious rate. Though I am using a Hunter's backpack to carry enough to decimate my world lol

You can also always grab saltpeter and sulfur... I think there'ss a recipe for gunpowder invovling one of the two, if not both.

TC4's Firebats in the Nether drop gunpowder. A little easier to kill in my experience, especially with a TiCo Rapier.

Creeper hunting is also a great reason to start practicing with a bow or other ranged weapon.

I guess Mekanism added a new recipe for gunpowder? I'm seeing a 4 flint in a crusher (mekanism) or pulverizer (TE3) producing 1 gunpowder.
P.S. My own mod compilation.

Not sure if it's still in the mod, but back in the 1.5 version there was a bug that no gunpowder would be consumed if it was in the blast furnace.
