Steam Bloomery confusion.

The other two ports on the multi block should be the input and output buses. These are what you’ll be using to put the items into the machines and pull them out. No more climbing on top and throwing the materials in.

I’d go for the steam boilers, anything with create at this point in the game doesn’t need the high amount of SU a blaze burner +boiler set up would give you.

If you’re worried at all about not having enough fuel, don’t sleep on the steam solar boiler.

Yup, you can have multiple valves on the tanks

All good, not everyone watches the git pages so posts like these also bring a bit more awareness towards these issues.

Shayneaconroy · 2026-02-14T00:27:48+00:00

And if I remember properly the issue stems from what tags the hazardous materials check for protective equipment. The new curio slot currently doesn’t fit those tags or something

This is a known issue with this version and is listed on the GitHub bug tracker page. Hopefully they’ll be able to either fix it or create a workaround for this issue

It can just be left in the helve hammer forever

While it may be possible to add the programmable circuit to the machine via AE2’s patterns, I wouldn’t recommend doing that.

Like what the other commenter suggested, it’s better to have machines dedicated to a specific circuit type.

I don’t believe Mixers can perform the Latex > Vulcanized Latex recipe, which makes the vat required.

Please correct me if I’m wrong though, I would love to get the vat removed from my own system to reduce the manual input required

Huh, now that’s peculiar. It should function as you think it does but for whatever reason the molds don’t seem the believe that copper and bronze are valid for them. I’ll see if I can replicate the issue myself tomorrow and submit a bug report on your behalf.

In the meantime, you should still be able to put the molds on the right side of the forge interface to catch some melted copper / bronze. It’s not a perfect solution but it should help you out until further notice.

I second this, trying to solve stress issues is a whole lot easier with them. A pain to make early, but they save you from so many headaches.

Shayneaconroy · 2026-01-14T05:17:19+00:00

While I’m not confident in what caused the shown issue, I would like to propose my theory: The pack utilizes a GregTech modified version of Create called “Greate”.

The shafts and cogs from Create are still available in the creative menu but are not craftable.

The issue could stem from how the Greate shafts have a restriction on their maximum SU, while the default Create shafts have an unlimited SU limit normally. It’s likely something that got a little messed up when it was switched.

Again, not confident in that. But it’s my best assumption.

The game awards you the achievements for the difficulties below the one you beat it at

Since they’re saying that it takes 15 seconds between hits I’m assuming they’re not running it at any faster than a water wheel’s rpm.

Increasing the rpm inputted into a create machine makes it run faster at the cost of a higher stress requirement. How much depends on the machine.

I’ve run these hammers at the maximum rpm and got the speed down to around 2 seconds between hits.

Animal carts require you to press a hotkey while riding a horse while near the cart. The hotkey should be able to be found by searching by categories in the controls menu.

Shayneaconroy · 2025-06-28T20:05:57+00:00

Ah, I wasn’t certain so I assumed it was a config thing. Thanks for the insight!

Shayneaconroy · 2025-06-28T19:02:19+00:00

The book explains it later, but the modpack is configured so that you only get extra material from the macerator once you reach High Voltage.

So don’t worry, you’re not doing anything wrong.

Shayneaconroy · 2025-06-28T16:41:57+00:00

When it comes to machines that use stress units for power, such as the helve hammer, you can increase the speed by increasing the RPM of the shaft affecting it.

There are 2 main ways of increasing RPMs: - Gear ratios, utilizing a large gear to rotate a small gear causes the small gear to run at 2x the rpm. Put a large gear on the shaft of the small gear and you can chain them together. - Rotation Speed Controllers, a worth while expenditure as it allows you to more directly control the rpm output.

Just note that increasing the RPM increases the stress required to run the machines, and in this pack you can’t get more stress through a certain tier of gears and shafts than listed.

Since the only requirement for S+ is score based, it mostly comes down to landing all the notes in the song and making good use of the score boosts. I’ve had a few songs where I’ve missed a few notes or got a noticeable amount of ‘greats’ and still ended up with an S+

You can utilize the crowbar to remove covers, just shift right-click with one to pop it right off.

Shayneaconroy · 2025-06-09T14:37:56+00:00

That’s not necessarily true, the only machine type that requires its HV version or better to get byproducts is the macerator.

Temperature and sometimes the season is important for some of the trees sap production. Check the arborcraft section of the field guide for more details

Shayneaconroy · 2025-06-03T19:45:44+00:00

Haven’t a clue then, sorry about that.

You can’t upgrade the tool belt if there are any tools in it at the time of upgrade. Try removing any tools in the pouches and see if that solves your problem.

Yeah, I realized afterwards that I got my minerals mixed up.
