"Creative mode is the next step!"
Fill your whole inventory with diamond blocks.

Further testing made me find a bug with your gem blocks. (I'm not sure if this is caused by any other mod i have installed so i need you to re-test it)
Raw Emerald block lacks a recipe.
Kryptonite block needs only one gem instead of 9, same thing happens with Powerstone and Solite blocks.

"You don't need a Freezer to get Ice!"
Get Ice from snowballs.

Whatever you are thinking. I don't care about it anymore.

You could just have said "I need help with textures" instead.
You are right anyway.

Again, posting that IC² is "available" for 1.5.1 ?
Sometimes once is more than enough...

Another idea :
Void gem, obtainable in the end island.
When placed inside the Mystical generator/Special Beacon it will consume other gems power (up to 50 EU/t) to provide beacon powers.

1-5 EU/t provides Regeneration I, Speed I, Mining Speed I, Resistance I, Strength I
6-25 EU/t provides same as above, but II
26-49 EU/t ... but III
50 EU/t ... IV

I will keep giving my opinion and testing this.
Thanks for re-considering the mystical generator. I bet everyone will use gems for that.
Also you could make all mystic gems useable inside storage boxes outputting their respective values. The mystic generator would be a block to use ALL your mystical gems at once.
This way you can use a single type of gem to give some power to a storage box if you don't have the resources for the generator.

Tested your gems a bit and here is my opinion :
Chaos emeralds are fine the way they are, except that you can't make the master emerald once you make one chaos emerald separated.
Your blocks and items are using IDS that are very close to vanilla, which is not good. Switch to Forge 4096 block IDs fix and make items IDs at 10000 range.
I couldn't find the "mystical generator" to extract energy from mystic gems. Mystic gems are useless at the moment.
I've said this before but here it is again, remove gems ability to store energy. It is pointless as there are many other cheaper ways to store energy and gems with energy storage makes them (usually) unstackable which is bad.
On later versions you could mess up with stronghold/end generation code and try to make raw chaos emeralds generate there instead of using the egg as there are ways to duplicate the egg. Also by permanently using the egg it removes the utility of a GT generator (dragon egg siphon).
Master emerald should be the one that is obtained by defeating the enderdragon (aka when dragon is defeated it generates the altar AND a raw Master emerald beside it).

I thought they fixed these ... we can still power anything with Redstone engines only ? With pipes and such ?

Buildcraft pumps as they need a very low amount of MJ to extract liquids (10 MJ)

First, you should fix your OP.
Change letters to white and fix spoilers.

ADVANCED SOLARS!!!! ARGHH!!!

Whatever, they are from the same author, i might say "Sentimel's quantum generator" later...

Quote from SirusKing

I can see Biogas Engines, but Combustion for fuel seems fine, and redstone engines are so patheticly weak, they are like a Single Wind mill at Y=20.

Bio engines needs biofuel production, milk got nerfed as it burns lava over time. Windmill at Y lower than 64 does not produce anything (energy gen formula restriction).

Oil, gems, metal producing and many other fancy plants seems to be a good idea to replace Forestry bees (which i don't like much).

Quote from Epic Lulz

RedPower deployer + timer + HV hand crank = win

Honestly, HV hand cranks are stupid. Or even MV ones or LV ones. Like, you use the same amount of energy for the HV hand crank as the normal one and you get 512x (I'm assuming that's inspired from Compact Solars?) the amount of energy. Best make it cost 20 hunger points per spin or something.

Thats like exchanging food for energy. I'd rather have a biodecomposer which generates energy from methane.

Augh, please make that slightly more organized or i won't waste my time to read (and decypher).

A different system of UUM you say.

Quote from MatLaPatate

... especially with PvP incoming ... don't explain our oponents how we'll do to beat them all

Well... CubCraft PvP will be shitty, i'm almost sure about that.
Cublikefoot and his friends dislike the "anarchy" type of server.

It is a bit pointless to me to build machines if you are going to "fix" them later...
Exploits as duplication or heavy profit at low cost machines is okay if you fix it.

_{Well, knowledge is power so i might feel like keeping it to myself.}
