Steel Production

[Dezz]

I am in need of a way of getting a lot of steel at a quicker rate than Railcraft. Do any of you have a better way?
I am running on FTB Infinity

Thermal Expansion: Induction Smelter

Can you give me a little more detail? When I put coal dust and iron together, it doesn't do it for me.

mh put iron ingot and pulverized coal into the induction smelter and wait for it to be processed into a steel ingot?

It's not working for some reason. Is there a certain option that needs to be activated?

not rly. should work. why is it not working? if u cant put an item into the 2nd slot of the inductino smelter, u have to click on the button to unlock the Flux slot

I herd U kin pump liquefacted coal into a smeltery then add iron.

It's probably bollocks but it might be a larf.

What pack and version of Thermal Expansion are you running?

 

[ParAdoX83]

just tested with original infinity 1.4.0 and it works fine

Odd. I am running Infinity 1.4.0 as well, and it's not working. I will try to post screen shots.

Also, what do you mean by flux slot?

Edit: Looks like my UI is a bit screwed up.

I just updated CoFH core and all the Thermal mods and it seems to be working after I moved my Induction Smelter to my Ender IO capacitor bank. Weird!

Mekanism steel?

 

[ParAdoX83]

i see, i guess you use a texture pack. disable it and you will see a new "button" in the induction smelters GUI to toggle the locked flux slot

Tinker's Steelworks has a large multiblock structure that can process six blocks of iron into six blocks of steel in a couple of seconds. Fastest way of generating steel that I'm aware of. Requires a bit of redstone to run, though.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the high oven

Tinker's Steelworks isn't into Infinity it would seem.

Add it manually? There's no cross-mod compatibility problems, it's just dependent on TiCo.

Ah, I was a bit confused. I usually don't add in mods. I got my induction smelter working anyways, so it's alright
