#started my first playthrough!

Wanted to say, I really like that game forces me to go, explore and make some stuff outside my base
It's very good approach, in my opinion
Yeah that makes sense, but at that point Id have a developed AE2 system no?
and we'll keep making new ones in future content that you can't just pattern away in ae2 lol
Im definetely looking forward to that
to think I was considering playing up until LV
this stuff is just too fun
Yep that's the tfc influence we wanna keep haha
if you automate everything you need for AE2 yes; if not it'll be a grind to get to a really developed system
Keep it 100%
For the lazy people, like me, it's great that game forces me to do stuff and build something, that I would enjoy when it's done
Hope you won't face platinum line in "extended chemistry for gregtech"
it's not even the reworked one yet
platline my beloved
bye the way since you probably are thinking about the polyethylene setup now...
This is my setup which produces more than i currently need 🙂
It basically only needs a tree farm and some create windmill stuff -> for small passive power
I use the Ethanol (in MV combustion) to create the Ethanol
-> you also get good byproducts like resin, creosote, rubber...
just food for thought
(and yes i know it looks horrible with the pipes) -> thats why i am curious how your setup would look like
anyway choose whichever path you like and have fun 🚀
Ive already thought of a system to make the plastic line! Luckily since the reformate line produces coal tar I can turn it into an infinite system
(dont let tom hear of this)
It’s intended !
ok amazing! I also realised i needed coaltar for hydrogen sulfide -> sulfuric acid
so basically just spamming wood at this point
the lorax is not happy with this though🤑
good thing there is no pollution hehe
i would probably already be dead from cancer
Also make a gun pls (because gun go boom)
you need it for the moon and generally good for the beneath
Make mv pistol, and show it off every 3 seconds
its so funny how minecraft is blocky and then as sooon as you pull out the gun ...
the animations go crazy and AURA + 1000000
i also use the sniper to just 1 tap everything in the head
Also when i think back at the start of the pack where you basically throw rocks at bearsd and now just autocraft rocketlaunchers
make a chocolate factory.
after fusion reactor maybe 🙂
its just like reallife (we invented quantum mechanics before we could even think to make a microwave to warm garbage food LOL)
@pliant bridge I read the questbook and devised this polysilicon closed loop
crazy stuff, this reading thing
(also cut down the gas turbines from 3 to 2 but thats not important)
First time Ive made proper use of the covers and filters, but if you can whitelist/blacklist fluids on the same one then I used too many
didnt seem to be possible tho
haha yep
I designed this line specifically to be a tutorial on how to do "recipe loops"
cuz otherwise I don't think you'd normally do one until titanium I think?
Polysilicon, is not fully looped, but close
?
Nevermind, I'm just blind... and can't read
Haha makes sense. Are there other applications? I was thinking of making one or two a while back but I forgot what they were supposed to be
other loops you mean? another one is uh something involving formic acid to make lots of hydrogen
otherwise there's not that many until you start hitting late hv
Did you try schematic cannon for building stuff?
I wanted to test if it could place framed blocks properly
Im probably gonna use it for my HV base, that thing would be a pain to build in survival
Well you can have a filter on the machine and a filter on the pipe
Also crates chests input and output hatches
Oh! Didnt think of doing that, then yeah it could be cut down even more haha
From last chem reactor dichlorosilane outputs by pump with filter and silane outputs by mech in pipe with filter, so 1pump and 2 filters used
as soon as you get the nanosuit it feels like creative building lol
you can make that pretty early into HV
You need cleanroom don't forget also some batterys because God damn advanced nano suit chestplates eats EU like teto
yep :/
but then me and the fellas be zooomin
It's feels so good you don't need extra transportation
btw @pliant bridge are the passive lines you told me to build outlined as important in the questbook? The more I progress the more thankful I get to have built the ones I built. Maybe the only one I missed and I wish I didnt was a passive glue one because that was the #1 bottleneck for all my component making
Asking because if they arent they should be, had I not have infinite nitrogen/oxygen/hydrogen/chlorine/rubber/etc. Idk if I would still be playing, that would have been such a slow hurdle to overcome xd
they totally change how you approach production and everything related
I don’t think it’s really stated
I have plans to do a big quests overhaul
I think they should have their small section in each voltage tier
because they're not mandatory the same way batch/auto crafting isnt
(as in, they are)
and I think someone who actually reads will come around eventually
It might not be me, but im sure someone will
whats your plan? as of now I found the quests really clear
as in I easily understood which technology is the main progression line, the different branching paths showing different ways to get there, and the optional quests or explanation quests surrounding them
Big rework of the first chapter
Combining the starting age and the metallurgy
All the tips quests will be put at the bottom of the chapters
And I will add a massive amount of linked quests to let you know about every qol as you progress
thats massive
Yeah at the start I was getting kinds lost between the automation, survival and metallurgy progression trees
they looked like different stages and not the same one divided in different areas
- tips pages looked like progression pages out of place at the start
Yeah there is definitely some issues
I will also update each quest description
But that’s a massive work so even if I just started
It may not be finished before weeks
yo take your time that does sound like an unimaginable workload
thank you for your work on the pack, you guys are crafting something great
Agree’d ^^ Great Pack! 
Easily my favourite modpack and its not even close
how my job course has got me feeling
We got the Greg Tech and teto common W synge
To do list
-
Add steam thermafuge to ore processing line
-
Kanthal coils
Ah preparing the materials for this stuff took 2hrs instead of 12
📈📈📈📈📈
we are so back
(well not everything in my to do list but still)
Imagine getting that by couple clicks in 5m with AE2🤯
I mean half that time was mining, but how does AE2 craft everything on its own?
Like do you connect every piece of machinery for AE2 to send materials to?
Yup
With the help of processors and pattern providers
If you have enough storage capacity in processor and have a pattern for every step of the craft, then yeah, AE2 can craft basically anything
even whole multiblocs (every component required to craft the multiblock)
With the right infrastructure, AE2 can be extremely powerful
AE2 can be programmed utilising patterns & pattern providers connected on the same network, to Auto-Craft ANYTHING you want it too… 
AE2 is honestly my most favourite Storage mod, because it does SO MUCH MORE than just Store items, fluids and energy…
Here’s two videos [You need to watch], for when you make it past HV and get to the moon…
This video serves as a video guide/tutorial/walkthrough of the 21k channel controller for the text guide here. Go show some love to our boy Satherov :
https://allthemods.github.io/alltheguides/mods/ae2/setups/controller/
Ask your questions in the Cabal ;)
GOTTA THANK ALL THE SUPPORTE...
Scale your automations to achieve the fastest possible crafting speeds! As our example, we scale AE2 processor automations and craft a 256M storage cell in under 30 seconds.

Applied Ene...
(They might be based in ATM10, but most of the Concepts apply to standard AE2 mechanics)
- So you’ll find use for the knowledge in any modpack that has AE2 installed
this all of this for not make one more machine
not the sathroller
just make a 5x5
people make the sathroller without even knowing how it works
You do know the crafting of processors is way different in tfg right

Well… I have no personal experience in TFG past Early automation, so Perhaps I could be mistaken??
there's not really all that much to design
you stick a pattern provider next to a machine, you tell ae2 "if you insert a copper ingot here, you'll get a copper plate back", and you're done
it'll still be a good idea to play around with it to get the hang of its concepts, but you really don't need anything hugely overkill like those videos lol
wait till he finds out about computercraft LOL
Yeah just starts slowly by automating the AE2 components :p
And build a nice moon base!
Welcome to TerraFirmaGreg! This modpack is totally foreign to me (gradually less over time though) all I know about it is it contains TerraFirmaCraft (surprising), Create and GregTech. Of these mods I only know TFC and even then I've only ever gotten as far as copper tools, so im totally new to 99% of this pack!
@Hecuba39 Directly inspired thi...
New episode is out!!
still being in the north after all this time is honestly pure dedication 😭
I moved pre-steel using bronze crates, I can’t imagine what it feels like to still be up there
next patch adds snowshoes which should make north living much less painful

maybe people understand it looks really cool and don't need anymore than that
Haha im fine with the snow. I can go mining in the beneath and use the plane to travel. Most of the time the factory work takes months to finish so by the time Im ready to move on to the next step it's already spring xd
it is honestly pretty nice to see other bioms than the jungle sometimes LOL
The worldgen is so nice but you basically never have reason to leave 🙁
there something called quadruple and nonuruple pipes
they made with small pipes also if you use filters most of the time you dont need pumps
Peak again. But you’ve probably seen my comments, I’m noonmovies👍 love your content, so entertaining
the goat!! Didnt think you were in the discord as well
me
Us
both
synge is right drill of teto

went looking for inspiration for my next base
but Im not quite feeling this style, it's not too much in my blood
my stocks after you stole my reformate setup
red steel paris tower
paris enough
did u know, they use electricity to kill tourists like electric fly trap
it was a radio tower too :p
take me here twin
also might be stupid but I think you need 3 centrifuges instead of 2 to keep up with the pyrolyse ovens
Surprisingly 1 would already be enough
but 3 is still too little for the passive plastic line
They should add teto deco to the eiffel
Cause it makes like 7.8 buckets per 80 seconds
but the system consumes 4 buckets every 32
I actually thought that when I saw the top. Btw the eiffel is probably the coolest thing I'll see in my lifetime. I cant think of another world-wonder tier building id want to see as much as this one
maybe Tokyo or New York could have something that compares

but with 2 it was overflowing
what the
or you ran out of logs or something
Thats why I turned it off
📉📉📉📉
but now it's working indefinetely
📈 📈 📈 📈
hecc yeah! :3
you can do it :p
Synge, did you know that there is a crafting station? It's special crafting table that can access chests and crates that are standing next to it?
I don't think he's updated to 0.12 yet
yea lol
Oh, you added that only in 0.12. I thought that I was blind and couldn't find it for 5 months of playing xD
What’s the crafting station called that does that? Does it work with item vaults?
It doesn't work with item vaults if you r playing on latest version
Playing on 0.12.6
@pliant bridge whenever ya got time, Id love to know what new passive lines I should work towards as I make my way towards the end of MV.
Im guessing the silicone rubber line is gonna replace the raw rubber one (although for now im gonna keep it because I can still use it for a lot of stuff and my silicone line is slow)
other than that Ive also got the silicon dust line active, and it's auto feeding into both the silicone rubber and polysilicon lines
And it would also be nice to know what massive machines I might want to have in/near my base in HV (aside from those stated in the questbook)
because I somewhat want to design my base around them
tbh I'd wait until ae2 before doing a big base refactor
you'll want to reorganize stuff for it
mid to end
you need a cleanroom for it but otherwise you don't need new coils or energy hatches
we are gonna rush... za moon!
And the cleanroom is locked behind the moon?
Or is just AE2 thats locked behind it
No you should start HV by crafting it
the cleanroom can be done as soon as you enter hv
ay gotcha
It will unlock the Cracker and boost tremendously your reformate production
HV -> a few single block machines -> cleanroom -> EV circuits, then also making ender pearls via implosion compressor
iirc that's all you need?
but the cracker is also a good detour for reformate yeah
just by making the rhenium infinite or straight up making more reformate?
the quests should be clearer on what's required
ty for the roadmap!
straight up a lot more
massive W
Honestly you should just follow the quests ahah
I also wanted to overclock the towers and ovens, as well as use kanthal coils
maybe I won't need more than 2 doing allat?
infinite rhenium under your doorstep tomorrow
the quad ebf will help a lot with making the rocket
When you unlock the LCR which I would advise to do as soon as possible with the Cleanroom
you can also unlock the better ceremic circuit boards
oh if you need more hydrogen, there's also the formic acid loop
Ok so in my mind I should work around getting 2 quad ebfs total (not sure when or how or if its even necessary but just in case)
the cleanroom, but idk how big I should make it, and also how many LCRs?
Up to you you can start chill
As of now im not really using the hydrogen for much outside of reformate boosting, gem slurrying and hydrochloric acid
until you reach AE2
Yeye I just want to plan out my base with future proofing
yeah that's pretty hard to do ahah
but basically you have AE2 coming
Petrochem
LCR
Cracker
2 quads in MV/HV is pretty crazy lol
future proofing, Im not making 2 quads xd
Ah yeah time for my favorite day spaming EBF for every recipe until ABS comes

Then your power dies falan filan
Yeah just rush the LCR is worth the do
what is ABS?
A machine in EV
You gonna see when time comes
It's not multi EBF
Kinda
I don't want give spoilers
But I am sure you gonna LOVE it
If you want the look it
Alloy blast furnace
Yeah you can make that 32 times more

This is best part
Basically you waste more energy for time
Ultimate patience tester
(the recipes are occasionally longer than boule recipes)
only cuz they do way more crafts at once
Hi, what can you actually do with ComputerCraft?
they also skip the mixing steps of alloys so its a + really
wrong channel but also everything
u just have to make the script
here a thing its 25 percent faster than EBF
also makes bulk craft
Yo if anyone is interested, im about to start streaming Better Than Wolves Nightmare Mode xd
aura
It's not tfg but someone might be interested so why not
prepare for the worst gameplay ever
Not terrafirmagreg Im sorry terrafirmabros
Here it is if anyone wants to join!
Real and true
I missed the live but let's watch the replay
it started how it ended
with a massive fumble
(tbh it's all fumbles from start to finish)
Not sure if you've realised since but the stainless recipe doesn't require Invar
There's another recipe for it using pure iron and nickel on the next page of EMI
Oh didnt see it! Thank you for the tip!
I would have totally kept making invar to make stainless steel otherwise xd
Btw I missed the upload time but the new episode is out!!

Well well well
You found the transistor rabbit hole
Nah that's a kanthal coil jumpscare
It cannon event happens by new players
I mean you only make few normal transistor and you making SMD ones
Yea lol
the kanthal coil jumpscare caught me so off guard
but now I already have all the materials needed
3 EBFs running at HV made things pretty quick
Yo, this week there will be no new episode Im sorry 📉🥀
and I need to see what Im gonna be able to do for the next 2-3 weeks, the stuff Im designing takes a lot of time to get right and Ive also got irl stuff in the way
sorry everyone 🙏
no problem be safe
minecraft's most realistic modpack 😭
it's some very niche wind
Close orbit satellite
absolutely heartbroken
excited for whenever youre ready to release !
Thank you!!
Oh yeah my kinda environtment
Love me some most realistic modpack
peak
do you expect to switch to a bi-weekly schedule as progression slows down during these more grindy portions of the pack ?
(this series has been my weekly reprise from engineering study in the leadup to exam season)
Yeah most likely. Theres just so much to prepare now, and almost everything is not something I can put in an episode because it's just gonna be hours of preparing my base setup and the logistic system to go through the islands
After this drought becomes bygones I will go back to progressing the pack into HV, but between the end of MV and that I want to do all of this
I might go and stream some of the base planning because I might need a hand 🤣
that would be fantastic I am not sure if I could tune into a whole stream but it would be a great deal of fun to have something idly going while working through my calc
time zones might be a bit wonky
but I'd be keen nonetheless
Haha for sure! Honestly the way base planning has been going idk how chill and idle a stream would go 💀
haha it would definitely be fun though
Please do! 
Will do!
btw I added your playlist to our curseforge page!

Now everyone shall see the beneath run montage
peak video
from peakge
give us the episodes
Ayyy im gonna check out the curse page thats so cool
Make fun of me all you want but thats what peak male performance looks like
It came out a day earlier for some reason 😭
It's already up!!

happens
I heard that was common in males over 40
good one
me at the party where I only know the friend who invited me
homepage!!
thats so cool
w HV base idea
Ayy im glad you enjoy it!!
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/create-stock-bridge here's that mod btw
we should already include a recipe for it if you add the mod. But you'll have to delete the fluid mod which might cause other breakages. You could maybe wait until after our big beneath update before getting anything huge set up, since we'll be swapping the old fluid mod for a new one at that point
for sure!
What would the fluid mod impact? as of now the most I've played around with fluids for has been using the bottler
and fluid gauges
but nothing major at all
the bottler and fluid gauges lol
that's the fluid mod
no fluid mod, no bottler or fluid gauges

I would love to see you streaming
Yesterday I started playing TFG with a friend because of your videos. I only have copper tools but I enjoy the process so much
synge you should totally rename yourself to syngegas trust
Synge rename your channel name to Reformate Gas
Rename your channel to High Octane Gasoline
High Pressure Steam
Americium plasma
hamcorp will file a complaint
I will now proceed to rename my whole online presence to Reformate Gas Based Energy Production Line
