Thank u very much! its so helpful, but the texture problem hasn't been solved yet, I gave up to use "setTextureName", I used registerIcons, and I think I copied the right codes down to my item and blocks class, this is my code:
Blocks:

Code

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
	public void registerIcons(IconRegister par1IconRegister)
	{
		this.blockIcon = par1IconRegister.registerIcon(TestMod.modid + ":" + (this.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5)));
	}

Items:

Code

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
	public void registerIcons(IconRegister par1IconRegister)
	{
		this.itemIcon = par1IconRegister.registerIcon(TestMod.modid + ":" + (this.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5)));
	}

Oh, I forget to tell u one thing, levelstorage is not compatible with Foresty 2.3.0.6 and NEI 1.6.1.5

Should be compatible.. Unless ChickenBones changed APIs in that version.

We know that there's no more UU-matters in IC2 Experimental.Then how can we carft Advanced Solar Panels without UU matters ?

Just wait for it. (It's supa sekrit what's comin')

Quote from LostCoder

Ok, then there will be workaround.

Yes, just return the right value in demandedEnergyUnits(). That is currently the only workaround.

Quote from FrozenElite30

code should be like this:

Code

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(testblock), new Object[]{
			"XYZ",
			"XYZ",
			"XYZ",
			"X", Item.ingotGold, "Y", Item.ingotIron, "Z", Block.dirt
		});

Wrong. This one is not though:

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(testblock), new Object[]{
			"XYZ",
			"XYZ",
			"XYZ",
			'X', Item.ingotGold, 'Y', Item.ingotIron, 'Z', Block.dirt
		});

'X' and "X" are different types in java (Character and String).

Quote from FrozenElite30

I do not like this functionality. cuz it causes explosion when u fall from somewhere, and every explosion will destruct many blocks, it will be very inconvenient. But if explosion will not destruct blocks, it should be useful

You can turn it off.

EDIT:
So, i created a "Major Cleanup" branch on github, so if I break something too badly - well, there will be a way out.

I'd like to ask some balance questions.
Certus Quartz IV value?
Uranium IV value (current: small pile of uranium 235 = 1024, full glob of uranium 238 = 204)?
Wood IV: 32 or 64?
Atomic Disassembler's energy cost per 1 block? I went back and forth between 160 and 50, cannot figure out what it should be.
Should Mass Melters require a some form of "catalyst" for the mass dissipation? Thinking that just energy consumption is not enough.
IV values for GT items? If I get it right, platinum's IV should be equal to iridium's, titanium is ~16 thousand maybe... Argh, you all know GT better than me..
Should there be IV for mob drops, and, more specifically, ender pearls?

Should there be IV for plutonium? I doubt if it should, as it can possibly make RTGs easy. Like even if I set it to, 100000 let's say, it will be pretty easy to farm.

EDIT:
Built 32 IV/tick IV farm. Consumes ~5000 EU/t. I knew, I knew that cobble should not have an IV value..

@Antimatter Field:
Implemented, however i check for

if (mob instanceof EntityMob)

, which will only concern hostile entities.
Also, believe it or not, the Antimatter Field DOES work on bosses... so a wither kill in 30 ticks. Should I nerf it or leave it as is?

@Anti-gravity:
Levitation Boots and, thus AntimatterSuit boots already have that functionality.

@Antimatter Explosion:
Yes, will be implemented.

@Antimatter Beam:
Will be implemented.

Quote from FrozenElite30

The way I used to add texture is setTextureName("mymodfoldername:mytexturename"), is it right?

@setTextureName:
You could do it that way, yes, but still overriding registerIcons(IconRegister register) is a better way of doing it.
@AssetsLocation:
Make sure ALL your folder names are in lower case. It IS important.
Otherwise, look for something here https://github.com/mak326428/LevelStorage/tree/master/assets

EDIT:
Anybody has ideas for Antimatter Armor? I feel like it has an indeed super expensive recipe and thus, should have more functions. Its current abilities are just rubbish..
So, the format of idea:
1. For which part of suit it is for (helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots)
2. What should it do?
3. Energy consumption.

EDIT 2:
I think it's time for a major cleanup. I've already removed XP Charger.

Quote from Draxxusc3

It doesn't even take 2 min for it to crash with dartcraft going. There was some sort of conflict going on, that I didn't really want to dig into, mainly because dartcraft kinda kills gt hardmode (with its version of the ic2 machines) it was some sort of registry error. I can look into it farther if it helps you out, but if you don't need it, I'm good with leaving it at that.

Oh, I gotcha, okay. Reminds me of doing global try {} catch blocks everywhere...

Quote from Crusader3456

You are the most userfriendly developer I have seen. Thanks for the quick response!

You're welcome

Quote from Draxxusc3

Lol, I found the problem I was having, your mod hates dartcraft it seems (on my cpu anyhow, maybe not for everyone else, and I'm too lazy to actually find the conflict), but that's fine, I must thank you for finally giving me a legit reason to present to my roomate to finally drop that mod...

Why does it? 30 minute load time or what?

@above:
Easy solution: stop using PSyncs and instead use Wireless Conductors.

Quote from Legamir

Could it be something config related or id mismatch? Even when the server and the client have absolutley the same config?

No, not at all.
This problem is not one of the "typical" ones.

@above:
Yes, of course.
This might differ from your ids though, beware.
http://pastebin.com/6Cgd65qROh, dropbox one: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8c6f16naw8hb56y/LevelStorage.cfg
Open LevelStorage.cfg with any text editor, remove everything from it and copy-paste.
This might throw ArithmeticException (oh, divide by 0, I missed you), if it does, I have a quick fix for that.

Yes, absolutely.

Quote from Legamir

Checked the forgemodloader log on my server and found this ->

That's fine, in such cases IC2 just postpones registration and nothing bad happens.

Quote from Legamir

So... we are back to the beginning? Why are the psyncs are not working on my server cross dimensional?

Due to some very strange unknown to me reason. Honestly, I don't even have a guess of what's hapenning.

Quote from Legamir

The wireless conductors work fine O.o and without problems cross dimensional.
The wireless power synchronizer not!

Problem with the conductors right now, how much EU/t can they transfer? It seems it's slow as heck?

512 EU/t or 2048 EU/t, I don't quite remember. I basically nerfed them in favor of PSyncs.

Quote from CrazyCrafter

packet issues?

What packet issues?.. I don't use packets for wireless energy transfer at all.
I basically have a List<Entry> that is emptied in the end of the tick. At the start of each tick WirelessPSync tries to add itself into that List, thus the List of available Psyncs is always reliable in the middle of the tick.

@how frequency cards work:
They are related to Wireless Conductors. You basically rightclick an empty frequency card on a wireless conductor and insert it into the other. (you need to click on a receiver and insert the frequency card you got into the transmitter)

Quote from Legamir

Don't know if that helps ->

My server runs on forge 9.11.1.942
Industrial Craft 2.0.287-experimental
Levelstorage 1.1.1.-dev1

Try Wireless Conductors instead of PSyncs. They have much easier logic and thus should contain way less bugs, if any.
They are point-to-point, so should work for situation you specified.

I don't even guess of reasons of bug you're experiencing. Need to look into the wirelessness mechanics, and probably rewrite it. (rewriting is my passion nowadays... that's true)

EDIT:
Oh, does it only happen on servers? 0_0. It makes bug even more enigmatic...

Quote from Legamir

Yep, and they are working fine. I can access my storage from the overworld and vice versa.

Tried different dimensions (even the nether) but as soon as the sender / receiver is not within the same dimension, it transfers no energy.

Weird is all I can say about this. I literally just tried to send Overworld -> Nether in my dev environment and it worked...

EDIT:
Oh, I forgot:
Which version are you using?

Hmmm.. do you have chunk loaders on both sides (both receiver and sender)?

Quote from Legamir

Got a question about the wireless energy transfer? Should it work accross dimension or is it intended that it only works if the sending and receiving part is in the same dimension?

Tried to transfer energy to my mining age but i couldn't get it to work. The same setup works if everything is in the same dimension.

You forgot a chunkloader. And yes, cross-dimensional energy transfer was meant to exist.
