Hi guys,
Thanks for all posts, hints and suggestions.
The last days I was (and sadly still I'm) quite bussy and I've had no time to answer or even to read the forum...
I'll try to do some updates and bugfixes for both my mods soon, please be patient 
-Mike
I suggest adding drill heads with diffrent efficiency, durability and energy cost.
There are 3 Drill types right now with various efficeincy (speed) and durability, the EU-cost is constant (always 128EU).
The digging process costs energy, also yes: it 'll cost 128EU for each cobblestone - filterning doesn't matter...
otherwise, the Quarry could be abused to flatten or clear areas for free.. 
This looks fantastaic. Good job sir.
Questions:
* Do "filtered" blocks cost EU to process (scan and skip)?
* Is it possible to define what depth to dig to? Particularly in GT 5.x, we want to dig specific depths.
Really if I can whitelist specific blocks and they don't cost any/much EU, I could live without the second thing, although it would add pimp factor.
- Every digged block costs 128EU, except of empty (air) blocks (like caves , ravines etc...)
The empty blocks are skipped (like "fast forward mode"), they also don't affect the drill.
- It digs always to level 1 right now, but you can place the Quarry at the level you wish to mine and eventually stop the quarry (e.g. by dismounting the drill).
QuoteAny chance of ejector/upgrade slots?
-I'll maybe add 'em later... right now just use pipes (tested with ExtraUtilites and BC-Transport)
QuoteWhat are the power requirements, if any currently?
-The Quarry consumes 128EU per mined block.

Guys,
Thanks for your suggestions -I'll consider some of them in next updates...

QuoteVLB should output at the 8192 ammount since its a tier above.. and should use a MFSE instead of a basic block and a advanced circut instead of normal ( since it holds so much power it needs to have a high cost )
The VLB is Tier 4 (since its output is: 2048 EU/t ).
Can you add a config to disable individual recipes inside the CVD? I don't like the bronze and diamond recipes, but everything else is fine.
In ver 1.3 you can now disable these recipes in the config-file...
Although, only the Industrial Diamond recipe and maybe the electric-circuit are the "legit" ones for a CVD Chambers

ok, version 1.2 is ready...
- New Block: Very Large Battery -Stores up to 120M EU but can't charge items.
- The Cable Upgrader consumes now cables from player's inventory (but it's easer to craft one and it's only Tier-1 now)
- Void-Generator needs now only one IC2-Extractor (previously needed two)
-mike
The Cable Upgrader will be definitely changed ..
stay tuned
-mike
ok guys,
As you proposed I 've added a CONFIGURATION file in ver. 1.1
Changes:
- Added: Void Generator -Produces 3EU/t from every single Bedrock Block arount it (next to it) , can produce from 3-12 EU/t from maximum 4 Blocks. Produces **CONSTANTLY** power -it'll be never get used up.
- Added :Config file (voidtech.cfg) : You can enable or disable particualr items and blocks in VoidTech - if something is "too OP" for you - just disable it
Download v.1.1:
http://www.mikej.de/minecraft/…s/VoidTech-1.7.10_1.1.jar
@Blcokmaster139
yes, I 'll probably make some of the recipes a bit *harder*
The Food-Replicator is anyway quite tough but I it should be a bit easer to craft than a regular Replicator or Mass Fab.
- the main thing, is to provide enought EU to it
Hallo everyone!
Im Mike and I bring you
VoidTech
-an IC2-Eperimental addon made by me.

***UPDATE***
Version 1.3

oh, I didn't know there was a file usage.txt..
With invalidate() and onChunkUnload() it works perfectly !
-thank you
Im making my first machine and I've just encountered a problem with IC2 cables:
Everything woks: all IC2 cables connects automaticly to my block and providies power, but
after I remove (eg. with picaxe) my block, the cable stays unchanged and "connects" to the postioton, where my block previously was.
I've tried to put this simple method in my block-class:
@Override
public void onBlockDestroyedByPlayer(World world, int x, int y, int z, int meta)
{
if (!world.isRemote)
{
world.setBlockMetadataWithNotify(x,y,z,0,3);
}
}
Hoping it "resets" the metadata on this position, but it doesn't work.
To fix the cable's direction I must remove the cable in game (break it) and put again a new one.
How can I "refresh" the cable(s) that there it no block anymore?
-thanks
Thank you!
There was no method get(..) but after I changed it to getItem(..) it worked , although it looks somehow messy...
Like this:
Block bronze = Block.getBlockFromItem(IC2Items.getItem("bronzeBlock").getItem());-thanks, tinydust.
Hi,
i'm about to learn IC2-modding.
How do I put one specific IC2-block to the world?
Let's say I want to put a block of Uranium or a Bronze Block to the world, with vanilla blocks I'm doing it by:
world.setBlock(x,y,z, Blocks.bedrock);
I tried to do it like this:
world.setBlock(x,y,z, IC2Items.getItem("bronzeBlock"));
but this won't work.
getBlock otherwise returns this:
ic2.core.block.BlockMetal@756ba7 and Metadata=0
what of corse doesn't work with setBlock...
anyone?
-thanks...
