    is greg's vacuum freezer broken? I put 9 MFSUs on a line and hooked up a MV transformer, yet its still insufficient power to make vacuumed hardened steel thing. Bug? If not, that is really bad.


    Btw, i don't know why people are complaining about recipes. They seem pretty easy in my eyes.


    Maybe you place the MV transformer wrong, check if the 3 dotted face connect to the HV line. If anything else fails, try connect it directly to generator

    Acctually I'm not perfect and I'm not that good living underground that's why I need help, what about you? Haven't you ask for help even once? And my name is 'TheGodlikeGamer" because I like PVP'ing


    Don't worry, according to his logic, this thread: [OFFICIAL] List of good reactor designs and the entire nuclear engineering section will be not needed. And yes, living underground need to have farms (tree, plants and animals), underground quarry, power generation system (I'm lucky to get a huge lava lake near me) and base defense system (I use HV cables and tesla coils) but eventually they are destroyed by admins and ops abusing their creative/godlike power... :( From a anarchy server with that dreaded modpack, and yes, nether is disabled however there is a mk3 collector at spawn for glowstone


    EDIT: I have a crazy idea that I have not tested yet: Get a base up high in the sky so you can use windpower, get a teleporter to the mining place, and place deployers with mining lasers around the sky base so no one can build a tower.... Practical idea?

    Generator ---> Geothermal Generator --> Some solars --> More geogens --> Small nuclear --> More geogens (and start nether mining for Thermal Expansion magma crucible feedstock) -->
    create dedicated geogen factory --> More nuclear and start breeder (and 64x64 sweeping frame quarry for reactor fuel and cooling feedstock) --> ???? ---> a lot of EU/t

    Still in the stage of starting a small nuclear....

    If you can have EE, use collector/duplicator flowers to dupe lava cells and feed it to geogens. If collector is banned, change the collectors to mk3 antimatter relays and feed it with several cobblegens

    Note: everything here is about C#, but it is kinda like Java, so this opinion can exist.
    That's a reason for holywar /=. I specialize at C# (read at wikipedia http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp) such java-like language. There is bytecode-like language named MSIL (i even wrote some programs using it ... but soon understand that it is useless, better to use C#). I have a great (really great, i know C# (as for .NET Framework 3.5, i'm now learning java for future work) experiance in C#, know it veery-veeery well). Reverse engineering is my favorite occupation. As you know, there are lots of obfuscation strategies, some of those are not easy-to-reverseengineer. Some obfuscators "wraps" their MSIL into raw native win32 binary, so .NET Reflector and SAE is useless. And here you have to deal with OllyDbg and know assembler... It is an uncommon example, most of examples just contain renamed classes with chinese (ah, i hate chinese symbols in code! :( ) or encrypts MSIL into something as they think ununderstandable, but it isn't. Inspite of that, you can't deal with ANYTHING, even not obfuscated without basic tools such as decompiler, SAE (and like programs, for C# reverse engineering). You can read binary without disassembler? Ahaha. Do not show off.


    Really?! Who in this world that want to write its code in Chinese? In code!

    Well, there is one inherent flaw in this suggestion: Why do we need the optics cable in the first place? We already have a powerful cable that conduct electricity at reasonably high efficiency. The only thing that I know that light energy transfer is better than direct electricity link is when we need to beam energy or we need to bring the power through harsh electromagnetic environment (like in MRI) and that as far as I know doesn't exist in Minecraft. How about EMP proof system? If only IC2 dev work together with Calclavia to make the ICBM EMP can fry IC2 stuff... Or give the light some advantage over conventional method of transferring power...

    1. Please use FTB modpack or create your own, because its legal
    2. Nano saber are designed to lose energy on activation


    *in transmission room*


    AI: plug me in


    Thepowdertoy: Doing it


    AI: Running system scan..... Wait, I detect an anomaly at external sensors


    Thepowdertoy: What is that?
    *small earthshake*


    AI: Wait... oh no, that is a new spambot ship

    Thepowdertoy: What class is it?


    AI: Markov chain text gen ship... oh no! This ship have a lot of virus payload!


    Thepowdertoy: Change of plan. Don't upload the virus yet, because I have a bad feeling about this. And open transmission channel


    --Start transmission--


    To everyone that hear this, I'm transmitting from the newly discovered spambot universe. We have discovered a new type of ship, which named Markov chain text gen ship. We didn't know this ship full capability, however there is a virus there. Thepowdertoy out.


    --Transmission end--

    *sees a boiling sea*


    Thepowdertoy: Really? That is the cooling facility?


    AI: The signal generator and fusion cores are generating so much heat that even a sea is needed to cool it. Even we have a lot of lightning rods used to grab the power. NOOO!!! They are spamming my internal dir with kitchen and bit.ly links! Wait... The bit.ly link tell me something.. it tell me that the entrance to the transmission station are guarded, and we can enter it if we kill this cooling facility


    Thepowdertoy: That's weird.... friendly spambot? Spambot is not friendly


    AI: Anyway we need to enter that pump station 1


    *entering pump station 1*


    AI: There are 1000 pump station network... hang on, I'm shutting all of them down


    *sea stops boiling*


    AI: The bit.ly link are telling me that the transmission station is now not guarded... If we can transmit the spambot virus we can destroy all the spambots

    AI: Incoming bit.ly and kitchen bots


    Thepowdertoy: T-destruction?


    AI: 30 minutes left


    *hear a soft thump*


    AI: Shield down! Subenginnering section 1 is hit! Life support room is hit! We only have 10 minute remaining


    Thepowdertoy: Where we we land?


    AI: We will land near one of this planet cooling section


    Thepowdertoy: Get us as close as the LZ and we will eject this control room.


    AI: ?


    Thepowdertoy: This control room is a smaller ship, with its own rockets and weapons. Now I need to manually decouple this ship


    *decouple the link*


    Thepowdertoy: NOW! EJECT US!


    *seperates from the ship*
    *Entering planet atmosphere*
    *Sees the ship explodes, creating another sun for several minutes, then a black hole form, sucking everything for several minutes until it evaporates*


    Thepowdertoy: That is the extent of FGT

    AI: Approaching transmitter at 0.005% speed of light. Wait... someone contacted us. Connecting..


    Spambot: Resistance is futile. Your human race will be exterminated.


    Thepowdertoy: YOU HAVE TAKE MY SHIP BEFORE AND NOW I WILL NOT LET YOU DO THAT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11


    Spambot: Look at your ship. A ship with ancient technology. With outdated fusion core that make GregT Arcturas class ship seems 1000 years ahead. You are using ancient minigun and ICBM with conventional explosive. So outdated.


    AI: Unfortunately, he's right. Our ship is extremely ancient


    Thepowdertoy: Unfortunately, both of you doesn't know the extent of THIS SHIP YOU FOOL! Activate FGT protocol


    AI: FGT? Wait, you want to suicide? Activating this will create fusion core runaway that will destroy this ship


    Thepowdertoy: Do it.


    AI: Activating.... 10% before fusion reactor reach critical mass. Reactor output jump to 500%, 1000%, 1500 %, we still not yet reach point of no return, continue?


    Thepowdertoy: Spambot, do you want to hear this story?


    Spambot: yep


    Thepowdertoy: Once upon a time, a random weapon creator create a superweapon. A superweapon that can kill nearly everything in this universe. The weapon has 3 modes of operation, and guess what? One of the mode is named FGT. The F stands for final, meaning after activating this, this weapon will lose 99.999% of the power.


    Spambot: What do this weapon look like?


    Thepowdertoy: A sword. Something that could beat a nano saber


    Spambot: Wait... NOOOOOOOO!!!! You are talking about that weapon from bleach! That is a extremely mythical item


    AI: Detecting extremely high radio traffic, telling them to kill this ship at any cost. Reactor is running at 10000% and we have past the point of no return. Total energy generated is 1.05x the power generated by Arcturas class ship and increasing.


    Thepowdertoy: T-destruction?


    AI: 1 hour before explosion


    Thepowdertoy: Spambot, you have destroyed our ship. You have make a really big trouble for humanity. You invade our planet. Yes, I do know that my ship is based on ancient technology. This ship is not as advanced as AIV or Arcturas. NOW, STOP THIS!!!!!!!!!

    Thepowdertoy: Dock to the station now


    *docks to the station*


    Thepowdertoy: We need to move fast. We have a thaumic spambot over here


    AI: Analyzing station systems...... YES! I got the spambot transmitter location. Its a planet. But I have some bad news


    Thepowdertoy: What is the bad news?


    AI: There are several million kitchen and hose swagging class ship guarding the planet. Even if we penetrate the defense, they still have AA batteries and particle cannon grid guarding the point of entry. We cannot penetrate the defense and upload the virus.


    Thepowdertoy: So you don't really know this ship capability


    AI: ?


    Thepowdertoy: Even if somehow the force field is offline, we still have 3 meter thick of iridium reinforced stone, with iridium neutron reflector. This ship also have point defense cannon that will destroy any projectile before it
