  1. I do miss the switches being more visually a part of the surroundings, like a lever on a block with redstone hidden behind; but RedNet totally allows for more compact setups than redstone ever did. With everything color-coded, you can run one wire instead of several! I can't speak to wireless, as I've never used it. And I wouldn't be surprised if white/blackstone stairs eventually made an appearance. Patience. Though you may find it has some minor aesthetic issues, RedNet is awesome! Have you watched this? [EDIT: dang -- I forgot they (microblocks) were removed from NEI when I checked to see if they existed.]
  2. So I'm having so much fun with all of this, between the forums and the wiki that I'm motivated to contribute. I figured I'd take a stab at the wiki, though I'm a bit daunted be the amount of experience I lack. :-) Trying something very basic, I realized that I can include a Furnace template, but I don't believe they have anything for an Induction Smelter. Is that something that I can create? I took a look at the code for the Furnace template and it's way more complex than I expected. Any suggestions for how to edit and/or create my own? Or should I just leave this to the heavy lifters? [EDIT: Related to this, some of the stubs lack images; I figured I'd go right to the source, but I really can't figure out where the original textures are stored, especially when I consider all the various mods that are include. I guess I could grab some from other sites, but I like the idea of grabbing all up-to-date files. I'm sure all this is in a .jar somewhere, but after a brief search I'm starting to feel like it might be a needle in a haystack. Any tips? ...figured out the images part, at least; I swear that posting and giving up often gives me an answer!]
  3. well then you'll need to share the code -- according to your error, you have a problem with line 16 (though that's not necessarily where the flaw is).
  4. are you saying this error occurs while you're *writing* the program? Or does it occur when you *run* the program?
  5. Is it possible to use linking books too frequently? I was just setting up a linking book "transport chain", (i.e., a set of books that flip-flop me from various overworld spots to various nether spots so that I can easily get anywhere within a couple of clicks) when I suddenly ended up in what I'm guessing was limbo... height of 128, featureless plain, could hear ghasts making their annoying whine. I tried looking it up but could find no reference. Is this a feature? [EDIT: think it may have been a corrupted linking book. I have had some server trouble lately and ended up doing a restore from a backup and that possibly triggered a problem. Most of my linking books seem fine, but one is not... and it's like it's teleporting me above the nether? very strange]
  6. well, have you tried (for troubleshooting purposes) something simpler? Like DSU - WP - CobblePipe(CP) - CP - CP - Chest ? (with, of course a redstone engine on the WP) if it doesn't work, then we'll know it's a problem; whereas, if it does, then perhaps there's an issue with your tesseract setup or something?
  7. just tried it and was able to do exactly what you want, so either you're setting it up wrong or you have a problem. Any chance you have the wrong side set to OUT? Or the DSU is empty? :-D Maybe it's just a minor oversight... so often I post something on here only to realize I was missing the obvious.
  8. just restarted my server to give you an example. The last several lines are as follows: ... 2013-05-27 16:28:01 [iNFO] [Galacticraft] Galacticraft remote version found: 0.1.34 2013-05-27 16:28:10 [iNFO] [ForgeModLoader] Unloading dimension 1 2013-05-27 16:28:23 [iNFO] [ForgeModLoader] Unloading dimension -23 I'm assuming, as Magister pointed out above, that it's unloading the DIMs because they're not in use. At least, in my case, I've not used The End nor Galacticraft. My server is running fine with this being the case. I'm betting your issue lies elsewhere.
  9. sorry for yet another question, but do you ever have it happen that both redstone cells cap at about 599940-ish? This has happened on a couple of occasions and I'm not sure why, but it ends up leaving my engines running to no purpose, as the "cells are full" -> "shut down engines" signal is never sent, though the cells are as good as full and clearly not going to get any closer. I end up stopping power out of the outgoing cell for just a moment (wrenching from blue to orange), which then maxes out stored power and triggers the reset, but it's just annoying that it's not doing what it's supposed to. Unless I'm missing an important detail here.
  10. not to be obtuse, but is this actually a problem? I get the same message but my server runs fine. I don't know what it's intended to mean, but I'm not sure it means trouble.
  11. there's a nice thread here that talks about this as well.
  12. http://depositfiles.com/files/0izkc5ny2
  13. one additional suggestion: mining turtles = safe and easy ore extraction; no explosions, no attacks by zombie pigmen.
  14. I know, it's a stretch of the imagination.
  15. I grabbed it from this post (see the last post for the link). It seems it's based on Sphax 128, but may have some modifications.
  16. The "arrows" in this example, are the six 'pixels' adjacent to the orange/blue bars. in both cases, they sort of 'point' right.
  17. think this image will work; let me know if it doesn't. [EDIT: guess I can see for myself] [EDIT #2: orange arrow point out (right), blue arrow pointing in (also right, in this case)]
  18. right at the juncture between conduit and energy cell should be something indicating direction; whacking it (right-clicking) with the wrench will toggle it to IN or OUT. I'd share a pic, but I've never posted images on this forum and I know they have some specific way you're supposed to do it. If you continue to struggle with it, I'll see about uploading a pic.
  19. did you make sure that (a) the orange arrow is pointing out (as opposed to a blue arrow pointed in) -- if not, right-click with the wrench so it's in output mode, and ( maybe this is silly to point out, but is your redstone energy cell set to require a redstone signal? (EDIT: oh, just occurred to me that orange/blue might simply be my texture pack; but there should be some sort of arrows indicating directionality)
  20. in short, yes. And they (redstone energy conduits) do a good job of bleeding off energy when a system is at capacity so that engines don't overheat (at least, my magmatics don't).
  21. THANK YOU! I could not figure out what I was doing wrong, and it just never occurred to me that of course the dimension wasn't loaded.
  22. you might keep an eye on this thread, as it's already on the same topic and has quite a bit of input.
  23. Can't believe I have to ask this, but I've searched and cannot find the answer: How do you use a straw on mob essence? I was just taking a look at this feature and was able to extract essence and transpose it to a tank. But, for the life of me, I cannot figure out how the straw operates to ingest it! EDIT: so, in a fit of desperation, I poured it out on the floor and drank from it. Can't believe it was that obvious. I somehow figure it'd let you drink from a bucket, for example. *facepalm*
