More seriously, I do like the other mods you included though that seed you provided dropped me into a forest nowhere near an oil-filled desert. I saw the forest mod in action as pine trees were dying and dropping saplings around my house. Takes some work to keep them back now. I got rid of the texture pack, not really my style. The minimap is fun and the double doors are very useful. Does Somnia interact with buildcraft/industrialcraft? Will I go to sleep and wake up to find my machines completed their work?

The deserts to the LEFT of the minimap screen.
The Texturepack was personal fave at the moment, matters little matters not.
Somnia keeps the WORLD GOING while you sleep, hence why it comes up with Simulating World. Anything that is under an action, such as a Quarry or Furnance will Continue no matter what.

Like I also said, you don't need to worry 100% about creeps appearing from no where and interrupting your sleep. For example you left an opening somewhere in your building that could fit a mob, there is a Percent Chance of one appearing next to your bed hitting you. They now have to actually path to you. So for example you go to bed during the night when your surrounded by Mobs, if there is a direct path to you and they can reach you, they will attack...
Actually the best example is.
Without Somnia, build your bed then surround it with Fenceposts. Sleep, there will be a chance that a mob will attack you...
WITH Somnia, you do the same, but when you sleep, unless they could spawn inside your fence, they will be standing outside it trying to get at you...

Ahh good to know. I didn't get a lot of time with it this morning. I've been digging my base into a ravine in the forest where lava and water are naturally flowing in. I'll look for the desert and make a long-distance pipeline to pull the oil in. I found a small oil spring, just a few buckets, and used that to start up my first quarry. I found quite a few diamonds down in the caves and ravine.

Did you know that Oil is also able to Obsidianize Lava?
Just created the map in creative and went down one of the springs, kinda funny finding where Ravines and Caves cut through the Bubble at the bottom...
Fake EDIT:: Did you know that Squids also spawn in Oil???

If you're using technic you can craft a recipe book with either book+crafting table or book+squid ink.
Nope, but that would include any craftable item even with mods?

It seems to. I'm not sure if the recipe book reads recipes on the fly or has just been modified for the technic pack, but I suspect the former. (Showing all recipes is like 500 pages)

I manually installed mods similiar to the technic pack and I can verify that the recipe book does indeed read all recipies, unless they are specifically hidden from the mod.

ALSO if you have quoted that Link of the Shared modpack I posted, please edit it out... Cheers...

Also. A very nice map. It has a Desert which is filled with Oil Springs, a Ravine which is open to the bottom of a nearby River that leads to nearly the bedrock via attached caves and a swamp nearby with plenty of Rubbertree plants...

Confirming incredible quantity of oil. It's like the seed breaks the map generator or something and spawns an oil spring in almost every chunk of the desert.

I have got to get out there and see this. Work is killing me because I'm thinking of all this oil. Agh...

Not a fan of the new technic pack version, the biometerrain mod with the trees is awful.

I have differently named files in my roaming data, so I change "nations at war" to .minecraft
Also I may start playing again with the migrant wave.

Does anyone know of a texture pack that supports the Technic Pack stuff? I wanted the one Yogscast used (SMP Pack) but the ones I find don't seem to support IC and BC.

If you find a better texture pack for IC2 or BC let me know as well. I can't seem to find one.

I think the 3.1 Technic installer has one included. SMP was working on a version of his modpack for it too.

Fun fact: Redstone engines (wood) can power a quarry, if you chain them together with conductive pipes. If you get 80 of them chained together, you can run a quarry at max speed (once they get warmed up to yellow).
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I should note that I tested multiples of 10 engines at a time. 70 gives the quarry a short pause before moving to the next block, and 80 makes it move continuously.
