So I Got The Tekkit Mod Today

If you knew exactly what you were doing the second you got the modpack, I would look at you in a funny way and slowly back up... it's a fairly difficult concept altogether. If you have the free time, look up Direwolf20 on youtube, and watch his first season of his let's play. What you need to remember is to not try and take on the whole pack at once. Test out each mod, i.e. EE, IC2, Redpower2, etc., separately. From personal experience, try out IC2 first, the lower tier designs, then try some EE, but save all Redpower2 machinery and designs until you are VERY familiar with the rest of the mods, for it is hands down the most difficult mod of the 3. Any questions, feel free to respond. Post in a numeric way
1.

etc, and I'll answer them as such asap. gl hf (y)

1. What is this RedPower?
2. I don't understand the whole point of a nuclear reactor/creating power
3. Batteries? Computers? wat
4. WHAT AM I DOING

If I were you i would watch direwolf20's videos here is the link https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL81C5AE2962A16319

Oh and also there's a Tekkit server I play if you want to know the IP just ask.

Sure, a Tekkit server would be helpful, considering I'm just dicking around in creative and not actually playing the game

Ok I'll give you 3 warnings about it 1. IT'S SUPER LAGGY 2. It crashes ALOT 3. Somtimes there isn't mobs at night

If your like me and can survive threw those things it will be fun the IP is: 49.249.144.252

Good server ips: Minecraft, play.timescraft.net Tekkit, tekkit.timescraft.net Hack/Mine hs.timescraft.net

1. Redpower is used for sorting, more intricate designes, and, for the most part, not to be touched until after IC2, in my experience.
2. Create power to run IC2 machinery, for mechanical macerating, extracting, smelting, etc, and nuclear power, when mastered and controlled, can emit LARGE amounts of energy.
3. Um, batteries are portable so you can move small amounts of IC2 power. Computers, I wouldn't worry about that too much yet, because I don't even know much about it, and I've covered all of Tekkit, and most of Technic.
4. Lol big question, but it's on everyone's minds when they begin tekkit. Just look around wikis, youtube, etc etc, stuff like that. Essentially, just start with vanilla minecraft, then when you get some diamonds and a good supply of minerals, tin, copper, etc, then test with some Industrial craft (IC2). Once you are good with that, try some Equivilant Exchange (EE). Move along with those two, progressing with knowledge, for both of them will ease your progression. I wouldn't go into redpower until you are VERY comfortable with EE and IC2.

Again, post questions if you have any

So confusing
