Tirm

I put it all in and its working great. Why is the LV Transformer electrocuting me? ** Uninsulated cable duh **

Perfect thanks! I have a quarry, but its using Glass Fibre with Batboxes to keep the power going. I assume thats ok, will the quarry really require more power than the output of the batbox?

Hi all, I'm 90% there on understanding Tekkit, finally! I have a question regards to power. I now have a lot of power coming in, its all sitting in a batbox (I realise I can ungrade this), full all of the time. However, its not going fast enough around all of my machines to utilitize it. For example, I have the following set up: Main power source > Batbox > Macerator > Extractor > Induction Furnace > Rotary Macerator > Quarry. By the time it gets to the quarry, its struggling for power, even though the first batbox i full. Now I noticed that if I unplug the Induction Furnace, and put a batbox down, there is loads of power again for example. They are all hooked up using Gold Wires, the power coming in is on Fibre. Any advice on how I can get the power around the machines better? I had to take out upgrades just to keep them all going :(

I ended up having to delete everything and restart. Even importing the save to a new instance of tekkit, still doesnt have any machines, so much work lost Going to have to back up my work regularly!

The sweedish mafia must be involved!

Looks like there was some update today? Logged in and anything to do with the tekkit mod set has dissapeared, all machines, gems for tekkit everything! Any idea what happened last night??

Guys I fixed it, I moved my bat box around near my house and accidently put it through an input instead of the output. Sorry for wasting your time!

The double tank pointing at the oil is pumping fine and the oil is showing in the refinery. The single tank on the oil refinery, has a wooden pipe with a redstone engine and is pumping, but there is no fuel coming into the compartment to be pumped. *Edit* Also the wooden pipes are all waterproofed

Hi everyone, 2 questions, probably simple, probably me being a dummy. I have an oil refinery, with 2 big tanks of oil coming in with wooden pumps and redstone engines. Then 2 tanks coming out with a wooden pipe and redstone engine. I have an energy link slapped right next to the refinery, powered. For some reason, I cant get the refinery to work. I had it working before, then my energy link blew up on me (I assume it lost power?) and I cant remember what I did Second question, what benefit does having a conductive pipe between the energy link and the refinery give, if anything? Thanks!

Batbox did the job perfectly. Although I didnt see Torezus post only Chezzik, and put the bat box near the top. I already had a load of Glass Fibre made up, so might as well use them right?

Hi all! I'm having a frustrating issue trying to get power from my windmill to my batbox. I have 4 wind mills going on, with a length of cable around 60 blocks, reaching up above 100 on the Y, so pretty tall. I cant seem to get it to draw any power into the batbox. Any pointers on what might be going on? Am I loosing too much power in the cables? Cheers for the help.

Fixed! Uninstalled all java versions, installed java 64 bit, then bam, memory went from 1gb to 4gb in task manager... I wonder.. didnt have 64 bit before? Anyway all resolved, worked for 2 hours straight no issues. Thanks everyone for your help!!

Ahh! Ok, will stop :)

Ok cool. Ok few more tests. Cleared out cache, made no difference. Default texture pack made no difference. Going into the nether makes the issue 10x worse and coming back to normal world from the nether results in huge video lag (jerkiness).

I just cleared /tekkit/cache, its doing an update when I run the launcher, is that right?
