[GregTech-5][1.7.10-FORGE-1355+][Unofficial but approved Port][Stable] Even GT5 Experimental is slowly getting stable.

I discovered today that in GT 5.09.21 an IC2 crop harvester requires HV components and a IV-level circuit. When was that changed, and why isn't it mentioned in the Changelog?

@BloodASP is there a way to add own materials to GT per Mod?

Quote from Blood Asp

That change is in longer than me doing the changelogs... Back then IC2 itself had no recipe for the crop harvester if i remember right.

Really? In GT 5.08.33, the crop harvester recipe only uses IC2 and vanilla Minecraft items.

Hi Blood Asp,

I have a question about ore generation with Gregtech 5u in combination with CustomOreGeneration (COG).
When I look in the ore description I see that the ores have damage values but no NBT values. But COG points to NBT values for the ores in its configuration file for Gregtech 5 ore generation.
Has there been a change over to damage values only and that configuration file needs to be corrected or is it ok that way?

Quote from Blood Asp

There was no change for GT ores.
The OreBlock"items" have the type stored as damage value, but as block placed in world they would be limited to 16 meta values, so they became TileEntitys that store the values as NBT.

Thank you! Then the ore distribution using COG should be just fine.

I have no idea what could cause this. Have to try i myself to be sure, should not happen. Even LuV or ZPM voltage EBF should be possible.

And the Muffler Hatch still only needs to have one free air block above itself, right?

I'll try out a few things that could possibly affect this issue.

Hello Blood Asp, can You add "Huge HP Fluid Pipe" with 384000 L/sec, because Large Heat Exchanger with 8000 L/sec Hot Coolant give 320000 L/sec Superheated Steam?

Two difficulties I anticipate with that suggestion:
1. The large high-pressure fluid pipe is made from a huge tungstensteel fluid pipe and two Insane Voltage Pump covers, implying it acts like the pumps are pre-installed at each end, but it might not make sense to add a recipe with more than two pump covers.
2. If I understood the recent discussion about output hatches correctly, they only output half their capacity per second, meaning that you'd need 8 max-tier output hatches to handle 320000 L/sec, at which point it seems ridiculous to insist on being able to run it all through a single pipeline.

Yes actually; COG (and PFAA) were deliberately made natively compatible with GregTech back in 1.6, and if GT detects COG it disables its own ore generation and lets COG take over.

As far as I can tell from the source code (see https://github.com/Blood-Asp/GT5-…dgenloader.java), it detects PFAA automatically, but not COG by itself. Also note that GT only disables overworld ore generation when PFAA is installed, and actually adds some mix veins to the Nether that would normally be overworld-only.

Even one LV output hatch can handle 320000 L/sec

Then what did dohvakin96 mean in this post:

Quote from dohvakin96

24000 L cap means it transport 12000 L/s.

I don't see how that could be referring to the fluid pipes, since their stated capacities are already per second, and that would mean that their tooltips are blatant false advertising.

Unfortunately fluid pipe transport capacity are a little smaller, than tooltips says. For example Steel Fluid Pipe (4800L/sec) can't transfer enough steam to fill 3 Basic Steam Turbines, which should require 80L/t * 20 * 3 = exactly 4800L/sec

1. The large HP fluid pipe made from LARGE TSteel pipe and I do not see any problem to pre-install 2 more pump cover inside pipe(It's a game anyway, why not? =) )
2. I do not know what you're talking. I can't run 320000 L/sec with only one output hatch because don't have pipe for it.

I check it out, and Steel fluid pipe CAN tranfer enough steam for 3 Basic Steam Turbine( just add Shutter Module on each pipe(they are very cheap) with "only Output allowed" setting + pump cover on pipe which contact with turbine(cover must transfer fluid in next pipe)).

Yep. 1-2 shutter and 1-2 pump cover is enough to fill 3 basic steam turbines due steel fluid pipe. BUT MV pump is needed. So i think using bigger pipes are chipper.

Hi,
I need some advice with the EBF. I created two EBF with HV components and they are working fine so far.
Now I created another two EBF with IV components. The configuration is exactly the same. But those two refuse to work.
Muffler Hatch on top is free and points in the right direction. The complete maintenance is done. Heat Proof Casings are the same like for the EBF with HV components. I'm using Nichrome Coils.
The EBF Controller shows no issue so far.
What am I missing there?

EDIT: This really seems to be IV related. I replaced the IV components of the new EBF with HV components and the necessary power supply and now the new EBF are working. But why aren't they working with IV components?
EDIT2: EV components work fine, too.
EDIT3: It seems that IV components and all higher voltage components than IV do not work on EBF at least for me. Is there any pollution system behavior possible, maybe that the output of the Muffler Hatch has to be connected to some kind of pollution cleaning system?
EDIT4: It looks like the limit is exactly at 2048 EU/t. As I understand it should be possible to add a second or third Energy Hatch to multi block machines like the EBF to allow them to accept more EU/t. I tried to add a second EV Energy Hatch to my new EBF but then they refused to work.
But ist that limit supposed to be that way or seems something to be wrong on my side?
I would really appreciate some hints there.

Just FYI:
I was able to fix that finally. I am using Power Converters to transform RF into GT EV/IV. The issue occured because the internal energy buffer of the Energy Bridge was too small to handle the power requirements for higher GT tiers. I have increased the energy buffer for now to meet my needs.
Also there was an error with the newer Gregtech API which I was able to fix.
I'll upload the modified Power Converters mod to my Github repository and place a link to it in portablejims Power Converter thread on minecraftforum.

There's a limitation with NEI and GT recipes that has mildly annoyed me for a while, and I was wondering if it is possible to fix:
Shift+clicking the "?" button in NEI to populate the crafting table with ingredients fails for GT recipes that include meta-tools or tiered components like motors, electric pistons, or pumps, even when I have them in inventory (an AE2 crafting terminal can populate with meta-tools, but not tiered components).
I wouldn't be surprised if this has been asked before in the original GregTech thread, but it's hard to search for, since it could be described in different ways.

May be I missed it but do we still need galacigreg for gregtech veins in galaticraft dimensions or did you integrated it into the 5.09 branch?
