Hi,
So I'm generally inexperienced with FTB packs in general(though I love what I've seen so far), and the last time I really played was over a year ago with Ultimate, and that was for a short time.
Basically I'm unfamiliar with at least the current iteration of GregTech and how it changes the game. I've been going now for an hour or so and have a 9x9 set up, and taking care of Minecraft basics before I go further, but I keep finding that ores and ore placement seems to have been screwed with, and on top of that, there are all sorts of other ores that are seemingly meant to be put into the centrifuge and similar to produce other stuff, but that does me no good early game.
Also, I cannot find any iron, like anywhere. One time I found a few ore blocks mixed in with a bunch of new stuff after searching through tunnel after tunnel. Similar with coal, it seems rare.
I initially tried different world seeds to see if that was it, but they were all similar, so I figure it's GregTech or some other new mod changing things; plus I like the seed I've got now, and want to keep it.
Anyway I'll refer to the wiki(s) and figure this stuff out, but in the meantime I was hoping for some quick input from you guys about how you start off your early games with GT intact(I don't want to change it/remove it, despite it's bad rap, as it seems compelling), such that I don't waste a bunch of time flopping around in the super early game
Any advice for a (sort of) noob?
Thanks.
