They only do that if you have Redstone current connected to them, and it's only 1EU/t per machine, I'm talking totally draining my MFE within seconds.

Yeah, that's a littl extreme. Leaving a massfab running, maybe?

It's sorted itself out, just broke down all the machines and restarted minecraft

Mod makers have an unhealthy fascination with making downloads as hard as possible to get. Take the portal gun mod maker. He's got an adf.ly link pointing to a filecopter link.

Filecopter is one of the worst pieces of trash ever.

There is a secondary link as well which is easier.

So... in IC2, what things should I do?

I've tried..

- building a Buildcraft quarry and hooking it up to a chest hooked up to a diamond pipe that differentiates ores and sends them to macerators which grind stuff up and send it to electric furnaces which melt them and send them to central storage, which is just a single chest.
- pumped oil. Lots of it.
- drained a volcano for the lolz. Most of the lava went into powering the combustion engine.
- created a factory that brickified most of the marble that was mined by the quarry.
- suffered about five engine explosions that left me very unhappy.
- tried the Forestry mod and learned that it doesn't play well with Treecapicator. Either that or the wood all went to feed the steam engine powering it.
- Build a railroad system that automatically sends tank carts.

Huh, mostly seems to be about Buildcraft engines asploding.

What fun (or !!fun!!) is there in IC^2, or the Technic mod in general? Can anyone point me to an easy EqEx tutorial? Thaumcraft? T_T

Also, what's a direwolf 9x9 house?

Well, I guess you could hook up a solar flower to an MFE, get the nanosuit and pretend that the MFE is a HL wall charger?

Or macerate some ores, or hook up a bunch of nuclear reactors (or one, if you're skilled in monitoring reactor heat and don't mind making a large hole if you fail) to an MFSU in a reactor-esque room, powering a bunch of mass fabricators.

Thaumcraft 2's rather hard to understand, and I can't find any beginner guides anywhere, so basically, I have no idea how to harness taint. All I know is that you need a Quaesitum, surrounded with bookshelves like an enchanting table to get the better stuff, and you really should get the Crucible of Eyes first to minimize taint.

Here's an EE starter guide: http://equivalentexchange.wikispaces.com/Getting+Started+in+v6

A few things to do:

Be as inefficientawesome as possible. Rather than sending items around using pipes, build a system of minecarts and launchers.

Break everything. Run your base off of cows.

Sort everything with RedPower instead of BuildCraft.

Don't use BuildCraft quarries. Make your own with RedPower frames. I'm not sure if the version of RP in the Technic pack  is new enough for that.

Bonus points: control everything with a RedPower computer.

Ignorance is valuable. You will most likely discover thing on your own, and it will feel much better then already knowing about it.

Anyone know any up to date mod/addon that I can convert Blutricty into EUs and back?

[Mephisto]

There was one. To put it simply, mod authors are dicks who get pissy when you step on toes you were given no indication that you would be stepping on.

Source: Now-dead project

The more I read about mod authors, the less I wish I had read. How can something be an unauthorized modification if the thing you made is unauthorized to begin with?

[iceball3]

Blarg, kinda sucks, that.
Modder: I'ma modify this guy's code!
This guy (Jotch And Neb): Okay, I'm cool with this.
Addoner: I'ma modify this code modifier that modifies code!
Modder: NONONO YOU CAN'T DO DAT

[Micro102]

And what's stopping him from going ahead and doing it anyway?

[Mephisto]

Being unable to post links to it on any Minecraft forum ever?

[Trapezohedron]

Most minecraft modders are dickheads, I mean they're not even supposed to get revenue from their mods, but they're lucky Notch (and Jeb) isn't a knight templar over his copyrighted, close-sourced game, and is fine with it.

And then, they act oh so entitled with their thing that modifies the original code.
