Gregtech

Yeah, Gregtech

Gregtech is the TerraFirmaCraft of Tekkit.

In that it increases the time-sinkyness of Minecraft, with little-to-no substantial gameplay improvements. I don't put large chunks of time into MC, but when I want to muck around in my bro's Tekkit-type server, I find stuff like that really annoying.

Rawr. </Rant>

It's good for public 30+ player servers, I'd guess, but definitely not for fairly small things.

In other news, I just rediscovered Easy Crafting. I have no idea how the fuck I play MC without this.

[Putnam]

I hear that.

Anyone know how to make Iron Blocks in Feed the Beast? I can't find the right recipe anywhere. One post said to throw iron in a compressor, but that's not working.

All I want is a damn anvil...why the hell is this hard to do?

[Blargityblarg]

Did you have a stack of at least 4 iron in the compressor?

[Sirus]

I thought you made iron blocks by combining 9 iron bars at a workbench?

Or did that change when I wasn't looking?

Which pack are you using? If it's FTB Ultimate, Mindcrack, or FTB Beta A, then yeah, you need a compressor, Gregtech makes that a thing. If it's any other, crafting should work just fine.

If it is one of the packs listed above with Gregtech, one of the things he changes with all IC2 machines is that he makes them need all of their power at once. Kind of like how smelting stuff with coal or whatever works. If you can't supply enough power at once to complete the operation, it'll just keep nomming up power like a douchebag until you do. Disconnect it from your power system, then fill up a batbox, then reconnect it.

And it's still 9 iron to make a block, Gregtech or not.

gregtech makes blocks require a compressor

[Mephansteras]

Hmmm. I had a full batbox of power and 9 iron in the compressor. Wonder why that didn't work?

Normal crafting recipe doesn't work either. Maybe I need to check my server configs.

So Modjam ended, winners are out 'n' all. Chickenbones won with Translocators, which make items fly 1 block spaces into nearby inventories, and iChun came in second place with the Hat Mod, which is exactly what it sounds like. 3rd place went to a couple of new guys with a mod called Atum, which looks like it'll shape out to be a desert themed version of Twilight Forest, and I'm personally excited for it.

Just toss 9 iron and cheat yourself in a block. Fair enough of the game won't let you do it.

Yeah, but I'm concerned in general. I'm not the only one on this server, and I don't want everyone else screwed over if something is messed up.

[Descan]

Toss the save at the support forum.

[Micro102]

And if all else fails, make a place to teleport to that lets you exchange bars for blocks.
