I tried to keep them organized but so much for my plans.
(Monster FTB pack)
2014-04-06_13.02.33.png


3 reactant dynamos running on blaze powder and destabilized redstone. Vanilla blaze spawners are in the next basement down.

2 compression dynamos running on liquifacted coal.

1 dimensional transceiver powering an enderquarry in the nether.
It is still to be seen if the quarry can supply enough redstone and coal to keep the system self sufficient.

The rest is ore processing and distribution.

In the background is a machinist's workbench and convenient filing cabinet for storing schematics.

I'm sure somebody has a larger, more tangled mess of machinery out there and I would like to see it.

I wish I could build like that everything would be so much easier, sadly my OCD kicks in :p

Panels are my best friend

Awesome stuff. I like the stack of machines. Reminds me of my 2 pulverizer/magma crucible coal processor above.
I don't even recognize half your machines due to my noobness and your texture pack.

Tartarus.. I mean at work. Same thing really.
That base was pretty old- let me fill you in. (mindcrack pack for 1.4.x)
Texture pack is soartex.

Centre Left/Right is Gregtech's industrial blast furnace and grinder (multiblocks). The metal boxes under them are thermal generators.
Neon blue striped machines are Redpower's sorting machines. Dark blue/green/white would be battery boxes.

Top left- buildcraft gates/pipes on factorization routers. Wooden box feeding them is a relay (redpower)
Centre left- Thermal expansion induction smelters, relay controlled.
Centre right (hidden) IC2 induction furnaces, hoppers (buildcraft).

Forestry fermenters (right) and squeezer (left). Redpower filters on bottom.

Packager (factorization)- needed to deal with all of Greg's tiny dusts.

If you can figure out the secret way to make a glowstone generator you can save on the redstone. If you can't switch out the reactants for the extrautils generator called heated redstone generator and pump that liquid redstone into it. Gives you more per tick and total.

If you can get your hands on some reliable amounts of sulfur, I suggest making blazing pyrotheum instead of running the coal and redstone thru as you do. Much more total RF in the end. You already seem to have reliable amounts of coal, redstone, and blaze rods. You may even have some left over if you are pulverizing the coal and blaze rods (small chance for sulfur).

I remark every build I see which utilizes less tesseracts than I and still manages to be less confusing to look at.

Is it possible to swap the glowstone gen for a redstone gen? Oo
I mean, it's possible to set it up the same, just wondering if it works the same

I get sulfur from pulverizing the coal and blaze rods so pyrotheum is an option. My goal is to make the system self-sustaining while a quarry is running. I will look into adding pyrotheum as a fuel source. Thanks

I dont think there are mechanics to handle something like that for redstone. If there were I would be very interested in finding out how that works. Although do feel free to SCIENCE!

You want a glowstone generator?

Il make a post on one soon :)[DOUBLEPOST=1397747558][/DOUBLEPOST]Uploading as we speak, just need to wait for Monster to finish updating.
