Poopyjoe Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Is there any way to get water in the nether with tekkit? Unehydrodyday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Munaus Posted February 7, 2014 Moderators Share Posted February 7, 2014 A bucket? Make a 3*3 cobble hole filled with water and you have a never-ending source that keeps refilling itself, if your intention is to cool machines with pipes pumping water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsector Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 You can't place water in the nether, it will just evaporate. Free-flowing water in the nether is not possible. If you need water for machines (cooling engines or whatever), you need to collect it in the overworld and use buckets and portable tanks, or pipe it in using tesseracts and fluiducts.

kerebrus Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Unless they patched it, you used to be able to place a ice block then break it and it would turn into water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwwojcik Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 That was changed a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Munaus Posted February 7, 2014 Moderators Share Posted February 7, 2014 That's cruel, making water evaporate. I just tested it on hexxit. I knew Nether blocks makes water evaporate but I thought using cobble would've helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poopyjoe Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks for the replies. Its not for cooling anything. Its to place around the edges of my quarry so it flows down with it and gets lava turned into obisidian so that it gets mined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwwojcik Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 That's why water evaporates in the nether, otherwise the impassable lava oceans would be a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poopyjoe Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Well yeah I know that. But i mean tekkit adds a lot of things that make mining a joke and what not, so i was just curious to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkon Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 You could always use pumps to pump out the lava and use it for magmatic engines or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakalth Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 one of the other liquids might work. Liquid ender can be used for example, if your using the latest version of tekkit for 1.6.4 Don't know if it will convert lava too obsidian though, since it is not water but a different type of liquid.

Daemon_Eleuel Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Not strictly Tekkit, but I worked around the problem by using the quarryplus mod :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badkruka Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Best way farming ore are laser drills. Focus on getting a powerplant that covers your powerneed + 200Mj/tic. Laser drills need 200Mj/tic to work at max and you can stop using quarry after that. Laser drill convert power to ores and doesnt destroy the environment and it can create all ores you need. Add to that sludge boiler and Igneous Extruder and you completly absolete the quarry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Mullins Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 a water source block added into the nether from creative mode does not evaporate fyi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neowulf Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Along the same vein, Mekanism's Digital Miner is a thing of awesome power and beauty. It acts as a player break event so it can set off nether ores. Which makes it even more awesome! Max size X/Y/Z with max speed upgrades set to get all ores makes the nether sound like a war zone.

XTR123 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Try mob essence from MFR, it turns lava into obsidian and flows like water, I am unsure whether it will evaporate or not though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 The following Thermal Expansion 3 Florbs all turn Lava into obsidian in the nether Black Ink, Liquifacted Coal, Gelid Cryotheum, Destabilized Redstone, Toxic Waste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterBenn Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 A year ago when I made a nether cobblestone generator, the uu matter recipe for water (uu matter in centre and bottom centre spaces) yields pure water source blocks. These produce running water when placed in the nether. It's clearly not intended to be possible since you can't collect these source blocks in vanilla, but it worked perfectly.
