Hi guys n' gals presenting my 1.4.6 world using Fuzzzies list (http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1210470-Fuzzzie-s-1-6-2-Mod-List):-

Starting out with my main processing base, the aim here was to build something neat but fully automated with everything connected which kinda worked.
PLEASE DON'T TRY THIS on an older computer, having all your machines in basically one chunk generates a ton of lag.

Tower #1

Going through each of the floors of the tower:-

Basement
The entry point of items through the Teleport Pipes, EU through the IDSU, MJ through Teleport Pipe into Redstone Energy Cell. Power gen used to be in this level and lower levels(fibre cable into bottom of IDSU still comes from GT Lava Generators one level down) but moved it out once I upsized it.

The wall at the back of the following images(where you can see the glass panes) has a section behind it which allows a BC pipe, a Glass Fibre Cable and an Energy Conduit to run up the side of the tower reaching and connecting all floors. Each floor/ceiling is 3 blocks thick so cables etc can be hidden in between.

Ground Floor
Original storage room, chests connected underneath with Logistics Pipes with Supplier and Polymorphic modules. Items cannot be automatically pulled from Barrels with this set up unfortunately. Chest hanging in the middle has a Request Pipe on the back so I can request then go do other things.

1st Floor
Thermal Expansion and MJ using machines. The pulveriser and furnaces are connected into the LP network to handle ores that produce secondary products in the pulveriser(lead and silver I think)

2nd Floor
IC2 floor, The recyclers are all upgraded and are fed with RedPower to prevent spilling. To the left of the recyclers and under the floor is a chest where excess cobble etc is dumped through a Terminus Module then removed from the chest with a filter. I've thrown 10 quarries running at full speed at this system without it backlogging.

3rd Floor
A few GregTech Machines.

4th and 5th Floor
Logistics Pipes AutoCrafting systems, autocrafts pretty much anything needed regularly eg:-humus, fertiliser, quad uranium cells as well as a bunch of other things.

7th Floor

Logistics Pipes HV Solar array factory, simply use the request pipe on the diamond chest and voila!

Farms

Max size golem wheat farm, Forestry tree farm for rubber trees, stacked Forestry peat farms, Steves Carts tree farm for wood apples and saplings. RP2 windmill and solar panels on the left charge batteries through an Ender Chest system for my frame quarry.

Power Plant

Outside View
Behind the power plant is 27 coke ovens 8 producing coke and 19 producing charcoal for boilers inside as well as buffer tanks of fuel, creosote, biofuel and water for the other boilers. Smokestack is from a Chernobyl build and domes are from a Fukushima build that are out there somewhere.

Nuclear Control
Nuclear Control room, reactors automatically refueled from chest using RedPower while new Quad Cells brought in through Teleport Pipe.

EU Conversion and Transfer
Power converters to convert MJ from Industrial Steam Engines fed by steam producing reactors, fed into A.E.S.U's which then feed into the I.D.S.U.

MAGFXjkl.jpg

MJ Storage and Transfer
Close to 900MJ/t fed into Energy Cells. Sent out through Power Switch Pipes(which are activated with wireless redstone when required) into Power Teleport Pipes.

Power Gen
2 nuclear reactors, 4LP boilers(creosote, charcoal, coke, peat), 4HP boilers(2 fuel, 2 biofuel) all feeding industrial steam engines in my cross4 design.

Bees

Bee and Tree Breeding
8 Alvearies(1 rural, 2 Industrious, 2 Imperial, 3 Refined). Roof is high enough so trees can be bred in there too. Bee product processing and extra bees machines are behind this structure which you can see in the next pic. Design based of a quick glimpse at Rorax's(I think) bee house in Direwolf's SMP series.

The Red Barn

Barn houses 16 alvearies producing all the coloured combs for dyes. Silos hold squeezers and railcraft tanks to process the drops into liquid dye and then store it. To the right of the image you can see the 'shed' holding the centrifuges, analyzers and extra bees machines.Bottom left is a standard redpower wool farm.

Monster Spawners and Grinders

Teir 5 spawners in each grinder. Water grinder for blazes, Drop trap for a variety of mobs/animals, Piston and turtle grinder with brains in jars for wither skeletons on the right. The building on the left holds barrels for items that are dropped and levers to turn on/off spawners individually. The window in the mountain is my shared liquids room which is coming later.

Shared Liquids Room

Max size Railcraft tanks (Quantum Tanks for creosote and honey too) holding all the liquids. Liquids that require processing are processed here otherwise just pumped into tanks from wherever with Teleport Pipes(eg lava, oil). Each tank pumps out into a Teleport Pipe. At the back you can see where I nearly drove my frame miner through my LD.N.A and water tanks, derp;)

3rd Floor and up
Nothing much in them so will save the space;)


Frame Quarry

My combination frame quarry and tunnel bore using mining wells. Is powerd by an electric engine from an IDSU because i don't have tesseracts and Teleport Pipes don't like frames. Decided to do the combination because putting it high enough up to not get stuck meant it was taking ages to get to bedrock.

Underwater Base

This is an unfinished secure base using mffs and warded stone. HINT if you want a perfect dome set up an mffs dome field and just place blocks against the forcefield for a perfect dome shape;) The forcefield around the dome is camouflaged and can only be dropped by chucking the right item into a transposer at the bottom of the tower. The plan is to have several layers of security as you drop down the tower but haven't had the will to do it yet because my ideas are quite complicated.

So that's my 'finished' 1.4.6 world, took me about 7 months and is all done in survival block by block... Let me know what you guys think and hope it's given you some ideas;)

DISCLAIMER Some of the designs are copied from various places on the web and most are certainly influenced by what I've seen/watched.

dam son I just started my first long term world but yours is kicking are you going to make a sky base


Pretty much done with this world just want to finish up my underwater base with all it's security systems when I get the energy. Still looking for ideas for my 1.5.2 world I've just started and will keep a sky base in mind...

Hahahaha 11x11 actually, 9x9 is too small for me

Yeah most go with 9x9 or 11x11 (because it gives a 9x9 interior). I go out of my way to avoid both.
The other common build people do the mega huge room with everything. That also bugs me.

But I like your other builds in up there. Love the barn and power plant.

I find it really hard to NOT build a modular/boxy structure for my main base as in the beginning with low resources it's all you can really build and I just add to it. The plan was to move it across to the underwater dome but that never happened cos I started with 1.5.2.

The main aim of that build was to hide as much of the wires/pipes etc as possible while still having everything connected and with the hidden passage up the back and the 3 thick floors it actually worked kinda well.

Thanks though, the barn wasn't too hard i just kinda copied another design out there but that power plant is huuuuuge and took me a damn long time;)[DOUBLEPOST=1414581901,1385712644][/DOUBLEPOST]New 1.6.4 World!!!

I seen Xycraft stuff!!! I thought that mod was a MYTH. The good old days when crazy contraptions were the best things to work on. Mega builds are fun but nothing like those ideas a yester year. Well done I enjoyed seeing your builds and having memorys of 1.2.5-1.4.7
