I don't suppose you mean something similar to what the attached pictures show?

ps. second picture has different types of engines from various other mods.

This seems to happen when activly using/around UE related items and once it happends (starts with first image) scrolling thru nei items makes it look different (second image)

I can play for hours without any issue if I'm nowhere near any UE machinery. (aside from 2 pieces of cable that I purposly left in my main base to show if the problem occurs)

I first got the issue when I installed mekhanism and atomic science (no basic components as I forgot it)

Yeah, they kinda look like that. I uninstalled Minechem and that seems to have done the trick for me - at least for now. After 3-4 hours of play mobs and so on still look okay. Do you have Minechem installed?

@OP how much copper/tin ingots are we supposed to get from one copper/tin dust? After going through an automated chain using Buildcraft from purifier to crusher to enricher to adv. smelting I get 2 per dust. Using the previous version 5.2.3b2 since I can't live with the block duplication. Is that supposed to be like that or has that been fixed in 5.3?

Using BasicComponents_v1.2.5.337 and Mekanism-v5.3 i get a very nasty duplication bug: Breaking machines dropes two of them!

Been considering playing with this mod but after installing UE Basic Components and Mekanism (without tools) I get broken entity textures (or something like that). After a while Endermen look like floating black microblocks with occasional purple particles. Had the same problem when I had Metallurgy installed (deleted that long ago). Also the biogenerator (and presumably other blocks too) texture looks broken too. Not at my main computer right now, if I can't make myself understandable I can post pictures tomorrow or so. I don't use HD patcher or whatever it's called and problem occurs with or without Optifine. No item/block id conflicts that I can find. Any ideas?

Concerning the mod specifically:

1. Second the sound config option. It can be quite maddening
2. Platinum issue can be addressed by replacing the platinum ingots in the lower tier recipes with "platinum alloys" or something similar. Just make a "cheap" recipe like 4 Redstone+4Gold+Platinum = 8 Platinum Alloy

MWO They're the only Beta (i know off) containing a "You may not name you are in this beta"-NDA.

Wait a second.. there's a new X-Com game coming up? WANT LINK NOW!

Remember: Always ask for the Firaxis version, not the 2k Marin one.

Edit: The 90's feel, the hint that the silence would be lifted next month (release) and the system requirements led me to believe that it was X-COM. Oh, and the whole pre-ordering thing, now that they're offering Civ V with it.

Take your time on it. I am in a beta which I cannot name and it is quite addictive. Takes me back to the 90's and well can't say much more until NDA is lifted hopefully next month. I was invited to the PlanetSide2 beta, but SOE made it impossible for the HD 38xx series from playing PS2 and I refuse to spend $200 (that I don't have) on a new video card. This other beta which cannot be named works with the HD38xx series without any problems. I might sign up for their pre-order package

Sounds like X-COM. Looking forward to that.

Use cables?

That isn't the issue. My generator is connected to a MFE with a cable and it still doesn't transfer energy on world load. On a basic setup in a starter base I have remove and reattach 3 cables everytime I load the game.

Got a similar problem but it only happens on reloading a world. Do the generators transfer energy upon loading a game?

When the Adventure update is completely finished it should be enough challenge for the suit - whether it will is another question.
But if the devs have the time to temper with dungeon generation or such they should use it on existing code or other suggestions since adventuring isn't part of IC².
I could see an addon for IC² though that makes Industrial Ruins like abandoned laboratories with random machines and generators. As an addon made by someone else though, not by the IC² team.

If you need a bottleneck throw in 2 solid gold blocks into the recipe and paint the panel textures yellow. Gold is rather useless but not too common and will limit the energy production at least in the beginning.

Like the idea of putting additional blocks to specify, however the vanilla blocks (clay, glowstone etc.) should by default be mined. Have the miner slots for ores generated by other mods for example aluminum ore or something like that.

Is there a special way to get more EU with a stack of sticky pistons? It's not imbalanced as far as I can see (please correct me if I'm wrong) it's more of a plausible and convenient way to get stickies. Maybe 8 raisins around a piston or 1 rubber + raisin + piston.

Could you add clay to the list of "ores" that the miner diggs up? It would be useful in situations where you're beachside, in a desert (where clay is supposed to spawn) or when you are mining from a platform on the sea where you can't see the ocean floor. Since clay can be rarer than diamonds it would be very useful for those who like brick houses :). I suppose the OD/OV scanner would have to be modified too.

For great justice! It's true! Thanks for that, we learn something new everyday!

Actually, it seems like solars is the ONLY thing they are good for. They tolerate EU up to 3 EU/s, and have a resistance of 0.001 EU/block, which makes it possible to make them run for 1000 (!!) blocks before losing energy. That makes for some huge solar farms.

Not exactly :), it means that every branch of ULC-Wire can only support 3 Solarpanels; you'd still need normal cable to lead it into the batbox/MFE.

Why not just give the machines a high-power mode? Apply redstone to it and it will start drawing twice the amount of energy but finish operations in half the time.

Thanks! Still used to IC1 switch cables. Since I found some 26 Diamonds in the giant cavesystem near my base I just replaced the five coppercables with glass fibre. It looks stylish and it works

My setup:

Problem is that the left flower doesn't send any energy into the box. The right one works just fine 5EU/t. Replacing/Resetting the cables and restarting the game doesn't work. Am I missing a wiring rule?
