[Addon 1.115]Transformers BETA-1 v2.0 - Convert IC2 & BC3 energy back & forth!

@_@ I've been around mods long enough to dive deep into their zips to modify sprites.

Do you think I was just talking to you. And your shock, I am not the most social being...

I'm not the most social being either. And I'm not that great at discerning social cues... Anyhow, I installed your textures and they really fit the mod really well. Perhaps the author will consider using them as the default textures?

... like he did with my pneumatic generator textures? I don't have a large doubt he won't.

Heya, with the placement of a LVPnuGen greated an OnTick client CTD.

Not quite sure whats happening here...... I just realised that EMD might not be 4k block ready......

Bukkit?

Thx) Link at their wiki was broken and I couldnt find working link
I like this so much more that BCIC crossover,so goddamn much more

I suggest some fuel - burning engine,because there's nothing to do with tons of fuel.Maybe 500 ticks for 8x power compared to combustion engine? Could be totaly awesome

Then what would be the point of Combustion engines? Using simply 1 with adequate water piping along with a single LV Pneumatic Generator can power a Tier 1 setup for DAYS easily on Fuel...

Course the amount of ecological harm you cause is quit traumatic, but thankfully Minecraft doesn't suffer from the Greenhouse effect, so no need to fret about that just yet...

But, using Bituminous peat in Peat engines also output a good deal of EU as well when converted if you want to be eco-friendly... However, Bio-gas engines (when on conversion) just seem like a straight up exploit of this add-on..

Combustion engine's main atribute is it's huge working time,5000 ticks per bucket if I am right
each engine is worth 11 iron and 1 redstone
Refining an oil deposit completely will give such amount of fuel,you'll hardly be able to burn.and there're alot of deposits.I dunno what to do with all that fuel,why not to quickly burn it? IC2 uranium cell is 10000 ticks,like 2 buckets of fuel.friggin 2 buckets have same working time as uranium.and I have tons of fuel,I either need 100 combustions,which is absolutely crasy or a way to quickly burn it for high value.
I'd really love to add "fuel" fuel value (sorry ) for IC2 generator.or a recepie,like 1 fuel bucket -> 8 tin cans with coalfuel,or maybe even a block,like forestry bottler. Shame,I dunno how to do so.
Adding new,higher tech - faster burning fuel engine? I'd love that.And stuff like basic combustion engine wouldn't be discarded with this engine,as is works for a really limited time,compared to combustion.
As for the recepie it shouldn't be like all lapotrons and such,maybe 4 combustion engines,adv circuit,adv machine block,2 Iron gears and IC pump? recepie is up to author,mine is merely an idea >_>

and about adj. engine..it's max output is..khm..is it even usable? It's a bit too much power xD not complaining though

Hey Snyke,
Firstly, thanks for having made this addon, along with your other addons such as AdvMachines.
Getting to the point: I'm runnning a server with (a bunch of mods including IC2, RP2, etc.) BC 2.2.14 and AdditionalPipes (TPPipes). When I run, run vanilla Bc, everythign works fine. When I run BC + Transformers, everything still works.However, when I install the energy loss fix (in the BC Transport zip, right?) it crashes, with the following message:

Also, the power pipes don't appear in NEI, or if they do, their tooltip does not and neither does their texture.
Finally, at my runtime log, it mentions two conflicts (three on my server) as follows:
CONFLICT @ -58
CONFLICT @ -204 (server only)
CONFLICT @ -126

Yet the server runs fine, except for when I try to craft any power pipes. Same goes for client. I've sorted block id's...
I'd appeciate if you could tell me the cause of these errors. Thanks!

I decided I do wanna add some kind of fuel burning machine.
Don't know how exactly yet, because I wanna keep the conversion rate to what it belongs to be, so it'll probably need to be cooled.

*thinks* ok... I can understand how 'waiting' on engines to 'pump' energy can be inconvenient...

How about an all-purpose Combined Cycle Generator? Accepts Lava, Oil, Fuel, and maybe even Forestry fuel sources (if you wouldn't mind writing a few of those in as well), but requires Water for Steam production as it is consuming fuel for energy production... This way, the 'fuel' is consumed quickly on site, and the 'heat' that results from said fuel creates EU just like a standard generator does but with a much greater output...

Quote from Snyke

I need some ideas here. I don't want a simple block where you pump in fuel and get EU.
I want to implement some kind of advanced system, for example: the fuel generator heats up the blocks around it, and then they generate electricity - or something like that.
I am also gonna try make the blocks look special (like engines/ most thaumcraft blocks).

Let me do this...
"Your engines can burn fuel because they produce MJ, but to produce EU, a much more complex process is needed. Your engine that makes that tasty energy units needs to heat up, and the hotter, the more efficient burning. However, it can explode with this heat reaching higher than bedrock's melting point (concentrated to the engine of course.) You need to add our patent cooling system, which cools it, but stunts the engine's efficiency. You can mix the two with an advanced electronic circuit and some diamond gears to form our regulator, capable of using a GUI (what is that, anyway) to control your heat. You want the recipes? Oh here you go: (forcefields [the little squares] are nothing)"

Really? Five days without a single post? That's sad.
