Change the title.
And take out the tools/armor part. It's misleading too. This is supposed to be about solars, not another tools/armor mod that adds some of the strongest tools/armor in the game already. No, it won't beat MPS, but for your average speed mining and invulnerability, quantum/gravi armor and a jackhammer/drill/nanosabre work nicely.
You'll notice you won't get a very good response for them. That's because MPS does your job, but way better. Don't even think about thinking about denying that MachineMuse is a great modder. And don't deny that you've just started and can't expect to get to her level with creative mode armor that people will think is OP anyways. Even an automated fusion reactor is nothing more than a weak and laggy quantum generator that runs a very limited and slow duplicator that requires a second type of fuel.

Woah woah woah did I say something? Dude the reasons for the armor is because its practice. Clearly it has nothing to do with Solars but I can't just ascertain the java skill of Greg or machine or etc over night... And I need practice to make this mod in a timely manner.
Yea, practice your armor, but from reading your title, it looks like you're almost done with the IC2 addon that is armor. Nothing about solars, which is what I care about, and a lot of other people feel the same way.
Right now, your mod sounds like "Obsidian Tools." You don't want your mod sounding like "Obsidian Tools." It's a beginning thing for a reason; it's so simple and overused, nobody wants it.
Talk about the solars. Yea, you're testing on tools, which you should be, but think about the solars. I couldn't care less about this armor thing, if this was to be your mod, I don't think I'd use it.
I feel like I keep repeating that your armor/tools should be a test and should stay in the beta stage. Don't release it to the public, work on the solars.
Some people I've talked to want the armor etc...
So here's what I'll do:
Change the title, and release the armor/tools version with some or a lot if not all of the RECIPES of the tower and Solars and mirrors they just won't produce EU
Where is the word Solar Tower?
This thread was made for solars, not this armor. That's the prize

I, personally would like more amour. I was playing on a server and we all looked like a wired robot. Can you add some dyed quantum/graviarmour and make it HARDER!! I made my first quantum set within 4-5 hrs yesterday FROM SCRATCH!!
Then you'll like this armor
It takes ~ 2000 UU matter, and 17500 of every ore in the game (coal, lapis, Redstone, iron, gold, quartz, diamond, emerald)
That may be taken down a little but idk I kind of like that
The recipe is so far:
Each type of ore in a block form around a uu matter = 1 uuu matter (or quantum matter)(haven't come up with name)
You will then need to compress 9 of those and then compress 9 of those (81) x the armor
I don't know how to make something infinite, so it will probably have a REALLY HIGH damage value or just hold EUs
ILGT i dont want to put you down but coding is ALOT harder than you think especially when u don't know java , so don't get mad when it is not going to work
Can I make a *guess* as to how to make something infinite? Haven't learned to mod yet, but I think you can just say something along the lines of, "don't decrease the damage value of this device."
This ^, you're saying "I'll just learn Java" like it is nothing, that's exactly what I thought about 8 months ago when I tried to make my first mod, it was a reasonably complex one to start with, but there's a reason I didn't complete any mod until about 2 months ago.
Yes I realize this.
But my thoughts are that first I will get the basic armor done.
Then go into exile (like Elo
) and then learn java. (Months)and then come out with a fully functional mod
It would be easy enough if I knew how to get mcp set up with ic2 and gt apis installed.
After that i would probably be home free but nobody (that I've seen) does modding minecraft vids using ic2 api
And after that I have to figure out how to recompile without including GT in the original file.[DOUBLEPOST=1365808793][/DOUBLEPOST]
btw what's your mod?

I suggest you try doing very basic tests like just try to add a block that does nothing , or add an item and see how it goes
The first one I ever did was a Canvas Bag recipe remover (people were abusing a dupe bug on the server I coded it for), my one I'm still developing is Industrial Drugs, it adds combat drugs for more PVP audiences (in fact it was originally developed for a war server) and crops you grow to put raw products into a GT centrifuge so you can craft the drugs, finally my one I just started coding like 3 days ago is an armor mod for a war server I am playing on to both add a use for one item of Industrial Drugs and also to offer a powerful alternative to quantum armor.
This sounds like a terrible recipe...so boring to make. And what's ore gonna do?Then you'll like this armor

This sounds like a wonderful idea, I like this "Industrial Drugs" idea. Have you ever thought of integrating it with IC2 crops? That would make it an amazing mod, IC2 crops are cool but terribly underused.
And maybe use the GT centrifuge to get certain items that you can put into a brewing stand. Yes, it's for potions, but that's cool and terribly underused.
Hahah, you could even make a druggie villager that will trade drugs for emeralds!
I'm not much of an "add more armor" guy, because of MPS. So many choices and I don't PvP
But if your idea is as good as this other mod, I'd definitely give this a try.Have any more information on Industrial Drugs?

Hahaha ,,, this is a huge troll, right?
Let me guess: the final step of the recipe involves 8 nether stars?
Wow, that's actually a good idea! ...But I still hate your username
