IC2_2.0.252-experimental Uranium issue

1st Official Post

    Hello. I am running the afforementioned build on my server and me and my friends all found uranium. But all we seem to be able to do is put it into the macerator (uranium ore block drops itself, then get 2 crushed uranium ore in the macerator). What do we need to do to get plain uranium that we can use with the empty rods to build a nuclear reactor because i have tried both NEI and craftguide and nada. Furnaces won't smelt it. Or is the uranium disabled in this build?

    Uranium processing :


    Uranium Ore + Macerator -> Crushed Uranium ore


    Lower yielding route :
    Crushed Uranium ore + Thermal Centrifuge -> U238 + U235


    Higher yielding route :
    Crushed Uranium ore + Ore washer -> Purified Crushed Uranium ore


    Purified Crushed Uranium ore + Thermal Centrifuge -> U238 + U235


    U238 + U235 = Enriched Nuclear Fuel


    Iron item casing + metal former (extruder mode) = Empty fuel rod
    Enriched Nuclear fuel + Empty Fuel rod + canning machine (canning mode) = Fuel rod (Uranium)


    Fuel rods can be used on nuclear reactors alongside other components.


    Remember to always use hazmat suits when handling uranium and plutonium.


    NEI shows it perfectly for me the ore washer and thermal centrifuge recipes, when pressing "U" while hovering crushed uranium ore.

    thank you so much! i think this is the fastest reply for a resolution i have gotten in my life :D/ btw the hazmat suit is just the leggings and the chestpiece? i am asking because i have tried it with scuba helmet/static boots and still get iradiated

    Hello. I have a problem. When I try to carry uranium (U238 or U235) with me I'm dying of it. ?(
    I wearing a Full hazmat suit.


    I am using version 2.0.271.


    Thanks

    Are you wearing the exact 4 parts i mentioned on my previous post, before you pickup U238/U235 ?


    I got U238 and U235 but cannot find a way to craft enriched nuclear fuel
