I fell in love with this mod my favorite feature is the heat system. I just wish that they update some textures and remade some models for it to feel more finished. Also It would be cool to overhaul the reactor system to something more interesting and create-like
I don't understand why they needed the reactor inserter thingy, they could have used the deployers and mechanical arms from base create. Also the reactor glass feels like such a cheap solution for radiation, they could have given shielding properties to different materials. IRL concrete and waterare often used as shielding and they are already in minecraft. Steel is also used a lot and you have something close in iron blocks. It would be cool if they didn't block all radiation and instead blocked it partially, forcing players to make proper thick biological shields to fully protect themselves.
There something i wish i knew before it's that the carbon brushes can only extract electricity from a certain number of generetor coil which is 8 by default i think
In my opinion, this mod is a bit poorly developed anyways. There is a bug where electrical connectors won't move alongside a contraption - even if it is super glued. Edit: not only that, but there is a general lack of variety in the previews shown. There is around one per category, which sucks as it would be nice to have specific explanations for specific items/blocks.
This mod works wonderfully with Create Crafts and Additions(C&A), since Crafts and Additions adds electrical stuff that does work with the carbon brushes and the motors, you can have batteries and use the wire spools of C&A that transfer more power than the new age wires that have a limit of how much current they move, i just prefer to use the electrical conections from C&A but generate the power using New Age, but you need to use the wrench on the conectors to tell them to pull energy from, and push energy into, some of the new age blocks otherwise the conectors won't know what to do automatically but it's super simple, i really love the fact that C&A allows for huge batteries that are modular like vaults and fluid tanks in that you can expand it in 3x3 towers super tall that store a ridiculous amount of electricity, but can also supply it back if you want when something is pulling more power than what you are generating, avoiding everything running out of power and stalling your entire base, the setup i played with had a oil destillery from Create Diesel Generators, refining oil into gasoline and diesel and powering a set of big engines that spun the Create new age coils and then moved electricity around, basically a oil powered power plant, never played with heat and nuclear but your video explained in a cool way, i should give it a try
This mod really needs a config feature that allows to change the conversion rate between su and FE. Last time I checked it was still missing. The resource investment to get FE from create power is simply way too large in comparison, when using other mods that produce or consume FE, like mekanism or thermal. It made me go back to C&A, although I like the implementation of the motors in New Age more, as well as the nuclear power feature.
The shape of the reactor reminded me of the fact that I wish you could build certain machines in an orientation, this type of steam nuclear reactor would be really really nice if I could build a steam boiler on its side or in any rotation that I'd like so that way I don't have to build around it and I can make the same engine fit the shape that I need.
do the reactors have waste product or do the spent rods just poof away inside? do we need to keep feeding it thorium rods and therefore hunt down thorium ore constantly?
Jade (previously known as HWYLA - "here's what you're lookin at" and WAILA - "what am i looking at" in previous versions) or, The One Probe has similar features, but The One Probe is a craftable item to wear, instead of a permanent overlay mod - i.e. former is a nice quality of life always there gui mod, latter is an wearable item if you prefer to "earn" the right to see that information in game.
my motors are broken, when I run power to them, they do nothing. first time looking into this mod and I don't know if I have some sort of setting that i have to change but its been 3h of trying to look up videos and just trying to power this thing. doesn't power with 6 power, 18 power or even 102.
i said this months ago on another new age video and i'll say it again, i love the concept of this mod and using electrical cables to transmit energy instead of mechanically, but the only thing stopping me from actually playing with this mod is the programmer art that does not fit create's aesthetic at all if new age devs happen to read this comment pls hit me up i will help make you some textures
Awesome mod iv'e heard of years ago however what's the purpose of the electricity that much yet i want to add this to my minecraft server however does this interfere with other custom ore mods?
the electricity can be transported over long distances with wire networks to power motors elsewhere, or is compatible with any mod using redstone flux or forge energy (RF and FE respectively), as all three types of energy are in fact the same thing under different names. the thorium ore generation should not alter or interfere with any other custom ore generation. no mod adding a custom ore should mess with any other mod adding custom ore, as a rule of thumb.
Looks a bit like someone used Immersive Engineering as an inspiration. Kind of a shame Create killed IE. I really don't see many packs with it included anymore.
Oh right lol, I think it's ok because that's shade from shaders. I'll check and see but I think they just check to see if there's not any blocks directly overhead
these generators are NOT made to be powered by water wheels... they're made to be powered by steam boilers... that's kind of the whole point of the entire other half of the mod . the nuclear reactors. too
This mod is really cool, but I’m struggling to justify using it. It’s cool, but as far as I can tell, I don’t see any benefits since you loose SU because of the inefficiency. As is, steam engines are cheaper with fewer downsides. Why use a middle man that eats some of the SU. Thinking about it, the only benefit is the electric motors being very small & simple. No need to build gear ratios or a bunch of rods, belts, gear boxes, & chain-drives to transfer SU around.
@KwizzleHazzizle I just expect to get more out of it. I can make a compact self sufficient boiler that's just as good. doesn't need a reactor and a machine to feed it.
@@TheGunnert Right exactly, it would be cool if we had steam turbines or something, or if there were higher levels of steam engine that required levels of heat not attainable from simple blaze burners.
Yeah it's pretty useless, it'd just a vanity thing. I built mine on an island for shits and giggles and it's pretty cool. It's entirely self sufficient so I just leave it be.
There needs to be some kind of large scale project that would need that amount of power. Maybe a portal to another dimension that takes a huge amount of power? New bosses and energy weapons to defeat them?
No Storage units, no batterys and no machiens that actualy need electricity. So without other mods like craft and additions i dont see a point of this mod. Create + immersive Engeniering + Crafts and additions + Extreme reactors + Create Diesel Engines. Thats a way better combo in my opinion.

"Overhaul the reactor system to be more interesting and create-like"
My thoughts exactly!

@@-ragingpotato-937 the reactor concrete is already enough u don't need glass
i love that you added the realistic setups. Not enough mod reviewers do this and it really helps people who are still new to create
I wish its block models were a bit more create-y
textures look like from random 2016 1.7.2 modpack
@@iamangery2475 absolutely
Well it is supposed to look kind of new agey
@@droson8712 yea but the unnecessary amount of parts that the models are made from just hurt my eyes(edit: and computer if my place is too big)
It looks more like immersive engineering
“in game of course” thank god i thought you were going to endanger the public with such tutorials. can’t be handing out knowledge like that
And with that reactor meltdown, we have an easier, but more expensive way to get through bedrock on the neither roof 😅😂😂😂

Oh wow, that would explain why my first setup attached to the big steam engine drew so little power.
@@KwizzleHazzizle Yes, if I'd never been in the configurations, I'd never have known

The only time i've seen thorium in a game was from Mindustry, brought up some fond memories from playing that game

This mod could do a lot more with the heat system
0:27 meh, I just wanted to make nuclear reactor IRL ;(
Aww sorry to disappoint haha
I was expecting a big boom 😢
my guess is that the displayed efficiency is the conversion of rotation to energy, and that the rest of the losses account for the conversion back.
Carbon brushes? Only DC power uses that. AC power transmits energy either via induction or clever design to have the wires as the stator.
ac generators use 2 slip rings, dc generators use carbon brushes over 1 ring split in 2 halves
edit: dc is more compact
0:30 oowwww... i thought.. useless video
do the reactors have waste product or do the spent rods just poof away inside? do we need to keep feeding it thorium rods and therefore hunt down thorium ore constantly?
I just want to know , what mod is that that shows you the Energy on top. Btw nice video!
The One Probe
how to get that block show thing on top of the screen like it show energy stored and stuff help me i cant build things without it

At 13:54, what block is used to mine the thorium?
pretty sure it's just a drill with a deployer placing the ore ! also deathconsciousness spotted
@@flameriddle6 thank you, deathconsciousness rules

How do you get that on-screen ui to see the power levels? Is that part of Create or is it another mod?
Oh you mean when I look at the steam engine? That's from wearing goggles
I don't understand what the point of this is, what can you use the electricity for? If you always lose efficiency why not just use a regular boiler?
Would be cool if i could make an electricity line to houses for light switches
Time to build a nuclear train.
Can you show us the boiler + nuclear reactor setup? I want to recreate it for my world
Looks a bit like someone used Immersive Engineering as an inspiration. Kind of a shame Create killed IE. I really don't see many packs with it included anymore.
a shame.. i did set up my coil generator correctly but it says 0su
I love this one! And what are those shaders 🤔 12:18 why your solar things are in shadows?!
Oh right lol, I think it's ok because that's shade from shaders. I'll check and see but I think they just check to see if there's not any blocks directly overhead

Помню, как смотрел тебя когда-то...

ahh i dont understand mine wont spin
It does not work for me
me either the power isnt going to the motor from the brushes
i wish it all exploaded if u made a mistake
the su it generates is way too low
The reactor? Imo it should be as much as a creative motor
You gotta use the best motor that's why, and at least some of the best generator it's very expensive but a really cool project
