Unlimited Sprites now works with almost every mod!

I'd read this slash

Talk about a crack pairing, they have no mutual interests. What would they ever talk about?

Hello test subjects, look at your computer, now back to me, now back to your computer, now back to me. Sadly it isn't me but if it stopped running generic FPS's and started running Portal 2 it could test like it's me. Look down, back up, where are you? You're in a chamber designed by the computer your computer could test like. What's in your hand, back at me. I have it, it's a dispenser tube with that companion cube you love. Look again, the cube is now moon dust. Anything is possible when your computer runs Portal 2 and not a generic FPS.


I'm on a potato.

What level have we decided on for the subway system?

Also, the house (not the storage bunker) at spawn got creepered due to me. Should I try to fix it up or was it going to be gone anyway?

I've opened my first portal to the Nether. Those noises. Is it possible to deactivate the portal?

Yeah, just break on of the blocks.

I think you can also light it on fire again to shut it down.

EDIT: Was wrong, it can be turned off using an explosion though.

I love Tesla Coils. I absolutely LOVE Tesla Coils. I have a 2*4 set up of them on a test map with some pig spawns above them that I'm just letting idle right now and occasionally going into game and flipping the kill switch. There may also be maniacal laughing and my own "bzzt" sound effects involved. It's magical.

MFEs can be used for the core of generator stacks going up to eliminate current loss. HV transmitters can be used for the core of stacks going up too but there's still some loss and they require an MFE to craft. I think HV transmitters can be used on stacks that produce more than 50 EU/s though.

EDIT: Yes they can, it just requires a rather complex system of transformers to charge an MFS without wasting much current



Note that this setup still wastes half of the evergy it produces. The waste would be nearly eliminated if it produced 200 or less EU/s. I figure outside testing theories no one is going to have 20 nuclear generators operating at the same time so I declare it "good 'nuf".

EDIT 2: OK, I lied about it being "good 'nuf". I changed it to be smaller, simpler, and more efficient for moving current long distances. The splits being hooked straight to the generator stack made each split lose current per wire so I put another HV transmitter right before them to make the transformer system itself lossless even if the wires leading to it aren't. It still maxes out at 200 current though.
