Mekanism is the tech mod to end all tech mods. It has so many options and directions that it can be a bit overwhelming. Not to fear! This is the basics on how to get started on ore doubling and making that work for you to get your own automatic quarrying machine! ...and maybe a small helper too...

The most useful tutorial in history. If only every mod tutorial were this concise...
Right, his magic and artificing one was great as well
I thought the heat generator only worked with putting stuff in it
direwolf has done these mod spotlights since forever
Sadly not anymore :(
For real this guy explained it calmly detailed and nicely
Couple notes on early game Mekanism: It's normally recommended to skip the heat generator entirely. You can put redstone dust in the battery slot of machines to charge them, performing one operation per dust. You can use this to create a wind generator very quickly, which is much stronger, and much easier to set up.
Additionally, since most of what you'll use carbon for in the Metallurgic Infuser is steel, it's recommended to make two carbon infusers, for a total of 4 infusers, with one carbon infuser outputting to the other, so that you can do both steps of steel production automatically.
I appreciate your information about steel production! I hadn't thought to make a stand alone system to automatically process steel! Sounds great to just be able to dump some carbon and iron then go! Thank you
i wish i wouldve noticed this yesterday omg
I was unaware Redstone dust could be used as energy. thank you.
What's the trick to finding osmium ore? It feels so rare that I can barely make any progress in the game. I posted this in another comment but last night I was playing around with this mod I ended up with *31* diamonds and ~20 osmium ingots! I tried at around layer 60 all the way to the bottom for *hours*. I was making no progress at all in the mod. What's with the INSANE amount of copper from vanilla minecraft? I had countless of stacks of copper and barely any iron. Feels like I've done something wrong? I'm playing 1.19.2.
@@huldu I know nothing about 1.19.2, latest version of Mekanism I've used is 1.16, but Osmium is a very rare ore in real life, and very common in the Mekanism versions I've played. It's possible it was changed around since 1.16, but in my experience, usually the issue is that some other mod tries to "fix" the rarity of osmium and Mekanism becomes really hard to use because of it.
Thank you for this. So many atm videos just skip over things so quickly you don't really learn much about what things do.
Ya know. it's funny. Every time I play with a mod that I don't understand, usually a tech mod, my mind instantly goes, "I really hope Mischief has a video on this."
For the new players: Charcoal also works in the metallurgic infuser when you want to make steel, so if you don't have a ton of coal for some reason, you can cook up some wood logs and toss that into the machine. You're going to need a LOT of steel.
Has this layout been patched?
Seriously enjoy you going through this mod from a gameplay/experience perspective, instead of just a boring reading of the item description of each block. I actually have an idea where to start from. Thank you.
You are welcome. :)
I wish more guides were as concise, clear and straight to the point as this.
If only teachers at school were this clear with their explanations, life would be so much better.
Yes! Mekanism has been my favorite mod in the newer 1.15/1.16 packs, and I can't wait until you get to the more complex stuff! I do hope that you don't stop with these tutorials after the Digital Miner, just because there's so much more to Mekanism.
Is that how mekanism looks like in 1.15/1.16 or what?, because it looks amazing!! I never thought about upgrading my pack to 1.15/1.16
@@thefireman6417 yes
@@muhammadsahid1901 wow 4 months later thx for replying at least
Well he stopped after digital miner
12:00 one good advice is to start by upgrading energy upgrades, then upgrading your machine to factories and then if you really need the speed , add it. By the time you'll want speed instead of having 9 processin slots, you'll probably have enough energy to not care anymore
Vallen, you are the best mod tutor on the planet! I have watched countless mod tutorial videos, and none of them are as concise as yours! Thanks!
My friends and I spent an hour in vain trying to figure this mod out, I thank you for curing our insanity, I can get the glowblocks now
man, Valen is great at tutorials, whenever i have a choice i usually go to him first. he explains things in an easy way to understand. came for the digital miner, and learned i was using the heat generator inefficiently. lol
Reminds me how a brand new TH-camr would not even bat an eye as their bench is caught a flame XD thanks for the tutorial, was very helpful
Vallen, you are one of my first go to's whenever I am trying out a new mod. So in depth, yet very well explained. Thanks and keep them coming.
I am currently playing Q-tech mod pa k which has mechanism . And this tutorial was so much helpful. You can't even imagine how much it helped me. Thanks.
This is the best tutorial ever I got this mod a few days ago and had no idea what to do and every video I could find wasn't helpful ,however a year old video solved that and Im doing very well on my world thanks so much
I've seen a couple of people saying that they cannot find any of the generators. So for those people, please make sure that you did install the official Generators add-on of this mod.
Yeah, I had to figure that out myself when I ran into that issue :/ If only I read this comment earlier XD.
You are making the complex, simple. Thanks so much for this tutorial.
This is really useful. I've never really tried to get to grips with mekanism. Thanks, Vallen.
Your voice is so calming to listen to and easy to understand, thank you so much for making this video :D
Love this mod. I'm very happy you are updating the tutorial. You really excell as a mod show cases specialist.
I agree with TBBoedy, this was one of the most satisfying tutorial videos for a mod, I've ever seen. Thank you very much!
Watching this in late 2023 and it’s so helpful!! Thank you 😊
This is really useful, Your tutorial is very easy to follow, no clutter or redundant information. Thank you!
As always your showcases are very superbly high quality.
Word of the day: Octuple. a quantity or number eight times as great as another (Collins English dictionary)
It's such a nice sounding word that I just had to make this comment. It made me smile today. ty. :D
I can't believe I've never used mekanism before.
I'm an old school player in that I was around the for the start of yogscast and tekkit. And so to me, they were the ultimate mod packs, and ic2 + buildcraft reigned supreme.
I recently started making my own 1.16.x modpack and they aren't available so opted for the standard: Mekanism + addons, thermal series, rftools etc.
They're simply incredible. I LOVE the mekanism UI
I love watching your tutorials! I really like how the machines are setup to look nice! I usually just group all the machines around 1 cable with little rhyme or reason. Thank you for this!
Soon as you get the digital miner and a good ore processor set up, you are pretty much all set up to start working on a Fission reactor, Turbine, and Induction matrix so you can begin working your way up to all the stuff that Pollonium pellets are used for. Part the reason why I like Mekanism is that you can very easily memorize the best way to progress through the mod and despite how intimidating the stuff you need to make are due to the immense amount of resources you need, the Digital miner can help you overcome that.
A Mod review!! Have been checking your playlists because i longed for that vibe of your presentations of some fresh mods :-)
Thanks so much, this is really helpful! None of the recipes show up for me so having an in depth showcase makes it a lot easier
Perhaps you could install JEI?
This actually really helped me understand! Thank you for making such a detailed explanation!!
You make the best mod tutorials! Thanks
Awesome video, dude! This helps a ton, keep doing what you're doing.
Here's a simple and cheap setup for stupidly powerful early game generator: get yourself some potatoes, preferably a farm of those, a crusher, a pressurized reaction chamber, a separator, a pump and finally a gas burning generator. Crush your potatoes(or really almost anything organic, but I just think potatoes are neat), put the biofuel into pressurized reaction chamber with some water and hydrogen from your separator and for a low price of only 2 biofuel, about 100 mb of hydrogen and some free tap water you'd get yourself a 100 mb of ethylene and sum substrate, which you can just dump somewhere. Ethylene is insanely good, pump it right into your gas burning generator and you'd get a ton of energy. At maximum burning rate about 70 kFE/t from one generator and you can easily stack this setup by simply upgrading crusher to a factory, getting some upgrades to pressurized chamber and setting up a line of them to feed into an array of generators. You can easily get nuclear levels of power generation from potatoes.
Also, if you have thermal expansion you can cheese it even more by disassembling watermelons into nine pieces each, getting 36 biofuel from a single watermelon, making the setup even more efficient. And even better - now you also have absolutely free oxygen production for your x3 ore setup too, as it's not used at all in the process.
thank you. this video very helpful ❤❤
Thank God I watched this vid, I was using straight diamond dust in my infuser.
I get ~40 Forge Energy per tick by using lava "waterlogging" to ensure the heat generators have a lava *source* on all sides _and_ inside the block of the heat generator itself "waterlogging" it.
Each of my heat generators has contact with 7 lava sources. Some of them are shared, however.
Thanks so much this helped alot!
The Dig-it-all miner? (digital to Dig-it-all, geddit? Pretty funny, right? No?)
No, but we love you anyway.
@@Brimshae ♥
Give me 10 bucks and i'll laugh for you.
Oh I am in for a ride, because I am VERY new to this.
You can put a lava block in the heat generator if you shift right click, like how you can place water in fences
I just realized that Enriched adds 80 instead of 10. My machine just ate 500 of my redstone from AE2 storage after I upgrade them with basic factory upgrade.
Also didn't know that energy consumption is per process. That explains why autocrafting stuff sometimes just shuts my system off.
19:49 I always like bit-by-bits, even when I'm not using them due to me despising the combat update and thus am still on the best version 1.7.10
There’s mods for newer versions that bring back the old combat
@@mozzarella9572 but the new weapons and tools are made for the attack delay...
still, as I don't know any of those mods by name, could you please recommend one to look into
At least it’s better than the old combat, if you can even call it that.
@@felipevasconcelos6736 why, because I can spam click against a horde of zombies without gear so that if I'm good enough they don't get close enough to hit me? that's one of my favorite things as I'm rather often in that situation, especially in the first few nights when I'm still searching for a place to stay, it's also not that overpowered as doing it with any tool wastes durability and it's utterly useless against ranged enemies like skeletons, also about the wasting durability part, that's due to enemies not taking damage a very short time after they already took damage while tools still lose durability from that hit so there was already a timer just not on the tool, and the most unnecessary part is that the tool has to charge after switching toolbar slot, I scroll the mouse wheel all the time and a real sword can also be used for a rather effective draw cut, bottom line: just let me spam attack to defend against zombies without wasting tools I always have a way (a mod) to be overpowered later anyway (in my 1.7.10 for example I mostly just fight with Ars Magica 2 spells unless I want to make use of looting on a weapon, or Reaper for Draconic Evolution Mob Souls or use the respective weapons for Witchery or Reliquary rare drops... well my killer joe mob spawner farm uses the enchanted Wyvern Swords for most of those purposes)
ahhh, now I really wanna log into my world again but I have other things to do this month... (that I wouldn't after starting Minecraft again, it always swallows months)
Wow thanks this is really helpful :D
Can you make a video on your method of learning the mods you make series on, it would be so helpful and I bet many fans would appreciate it.
Please consider thanks
Wikis, reddit, Discords, devs and a hefty dose of just messing around with the stuff. ;)
I know it's a little late, but I imagine he does most of his research in creative just messing about with blocks and seeing what's efficient after reading wikis.
I know he responded already, just adding that creative is your primary tool for becoming acquainted with the blocks
I put wind generators up at Y251 and ran power down to my factory. Tons of power cheap
This helped so much! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
you can also crouch click upgrades into machines in the world, and they go in instantly.
I wish I'd known how the heat generator was supposed to work before I put stacks of coal into it to make my first few items! (;
It used to work really well by chucking fuel into it, but now that only gets you a tiny bit of power. Much more efficient (not to mention faster) to use the passive method shown here.
Thx for the tutorial :D
Woodfuel generator + heat generator is the most efficient burnable fuel energy gen available in mekanism.
thank you a lot!
I'm stuck using 1.12 (MC Eternal lite) but hopefully, it's still mostly the same and I can just abandon tech reborn. Thanks for these btw, mods and mod packs can take a lot to figure out.
Tech reborn is really a pain in early game
thaks for info, very helpful
Great teacher!
nice guide
I have to ask if Shift+Clicking the upgrades onto the machines still works? You know so you don't have to wait for the install period.
Quick critique, I think it would be better if you explain what the mod does, what are the similiarities with other mods, whats unique about it, whats powerful etc in 30 seconds before getting into tutorial, it would be cooler, just quick overview
What modpack(s) do you play with? On Technic Launcher or CurseForge? Many modpacks seem to be of outdated Minecraft versions, not more recent ones...
My one question is that as he starts talking about processing ore blocks. Is there a way within mekanism of acquiring those ores without silk touch? Cursory googling tells me that there's the silk touch unit for the meka-tool but that requires what sounds like fairly high end/heavy investment machinery/equipment just to get?
This is so helpful
This is a very basic question on a very old video but the rest of the internet seems very unclear on this.
Is there really no way to pipe the lava into the heat generator, from a tank for example, for active power generation? Have spent ages messing around with pipes and the configurator and i cannot get it to input fluid. Feels like this should definitely be a feature, given you could just stand there and do it manually.
Im running mekanism as part of all the mods 8 on the most recent version
i actually just got all the stuff i need, and want it to mine diamonds and thats why im here
Copper has more use being a modded ore then vanilla Minecraft
Brilliant, as always. Any chance of a bit-by-bit for 1.16 Industrial Foregoing?
🤔
Ty so mutch but how do you get stained planks
how do you get the text at the top of your screen
The One Probe mod
In 1.15 is just use Create Integration with Create to power most everything. I feel this will change in the semi near future
You might not know the answer, but is there a specific manner you need to set up the enricher to pump out to blast furnaces on either side?
I have an enricher in the middle getting power, 1 basic logistical transporter tube on either side, and then 2 blast furnaces hooked up to those in a 5 block arrangement.
I have auto sort turned on inside the enricher, eject is on, and the left and right side of the block are on blue for eject but NOTHING is automatically leaving the enricher and going to the furnaces.
I still have to manually move the processed dust/etc myself.
Any ideas on what the issue could be?
Thanks for all the great mod videos btw!
NEVERMIND!
Just saw the part where you say they need to input to the top of the furnaces :D
Answered my problem ahead of time, ty!
i enjoyed this
What's that seed? And what mods are required in order for it to generate?
It's a Vanilla setting: Amplified
@@MischiefofMice thanks dude, keep up the good work
hello!!!
please, what's the software/mod used at @????
AHHH HELP my metallurgic infuser isnt actual taking any of the energy from my heat generator am I doing something wrong?? my heat generator is collecting energy and it connects to other machines its just my metallurgic infuser??
is a source block of lava on each side of the heat generator more power than 1 source block and flowing lava?
No.
ive reinstalled mekanism a few times but i still dont have the heat generator or solar panels and etc.
any tips? 1.16.5
There are a few mods to Melanism. You only have one
Hi. I’m new to modded MC. Will these heat generators power the machines from immersive engineering? Can I just build these and power the fermenter and squeezer and such to make bio fuel instead of making windmills and water wheels?
In most pack that will work, yes.
What mod are you using which lets you take items directly from the JEI on the side and put into your inventory
JEI. If you have cheat mode enabled (or LAN with cheats on) then press and hold CTRL+click the wrench icon in your inventory. If it turns red you can now grab items from the list.
@@MischiefofMice ok cool. thanks
which texture pack are u using? it looks so colourfull
Default
i have a 1.12.2 modpack that is made by me
i have immersive engineering, thermal expansion, thermal foundation, thermal dynamics, mekanism, enderio and some other mods
i couldn't find aluminum ore but i could find a little bit of bauxite
I don't what is the problem
can you help me?
Not the best place to ask, but bauxite is aluminium
Also, you gotta add something special, having those tech mods sounds like any other pack
@@theunnamed4462 i know that bauxite is aluminum but i want the other aluminum ores to generate
in which y level aluminum does generate?
I looked at the CoFH wiki, and it does not generate in worlds, unless turned on in the configuration files. Same with platinum, iridium and mana infused metal.
@@theunnamed4462 Thank you very much
Anybody else having issues with the metallurgic infuser not accepting power from the generator? I have all the requisites for the mod
I can't find the heat generator in creative. Please help : (
The heat generator is an add-on which is named mekanism generators
@@ehrenmanntyp2340 Oh okay thanks I can actually do stuff now
When I place my heat generator in the world and add lava on top, it doesn't start producing heat. Do you have any idea why this could be? It's not powering my infusers or anything.
Has the heat generator name changed because I can not seem to find it.
You are missing a mod. Add Mekanism Generators. Better yet, use the link above to see the links to all the Mekanism modules you are missing.
@@MischiefofMice thanks I am bit of an idiot, I noticed 5 after I posted this comment and now have installed it to my private modpack. But thanks again.
HEY !!! im using this mod with 1.16.4 and the heat generator is not craftable. i did the exact recipe and nothing? i think there is a bug going on or something, does anyone know if you really need the heat generator or is it called something else now? i see this video is from sep 15 2020 ??? anything helps thank you
hey quick question what mod is the one you use to grab things out of invetory all the way on the right???
JEI (Just Enough Items)
is the resistive heater the actual heat generator? i can't find the heat generator please help
Mekanism isn't just one mod. There are several. All listed on their Curseforge page.
@@MischiefofMice Thanks, ill be looking for the one you got!
oh right you put it in the description..
are you using a modpack? what mods were you using?
All the Melanism mods plus JEI and Quark in an Amplified world setting
can I also use steel from other mods?
I need help, I cant craft a heat generator. it's not popping up and it won't let me craft it. ???
Download the Mekanism: Generators addon
What mod lets you see the name of blocks when you look at them? Like on the top of the screen
The One Probe
@@MischiefofMice thanks!
Hwo do you guys make Steel in the newest Mekanism??
Infuse iron with carbon in the metallurgic infuser
I don't understand what is up with the osmium ore. I can barely find any at all. I spent a few hours playing yesterday and by the end I had 31 diamonds and 20 something osmium ingots. I tried at layer 60 and all the way to the bottom. It's so rare? Am I doing something wrong? I played with this mod many years ago around 2010-2012 and I do not remember ever having problems like this. It was such a fun mod because you could do so much in it now I'm just confused. Also did they change the amount of dust you get from the enrichment thing? I thought one osmium ore were to give 2 dust? That seems to have changed as I rarely got an extra dust which made the experience even worse. I'm playing 1.19.2.
man I can't craft the heat generator can you help me
i love u
how come this mod doesnt come with a tutorial book like other mods have?
or does it and i just cant see it?
Cuz Mekanism?
@@MischiefofMice well i didnt know what the hell i was doing or even where to start but now i do :)
thank you
What worldgen mod is used for this? :o Thanks for this vid!
Vanilla Amplified
Is that a specific modpack you playing? Btw thank you very much for your tutorials! Almost 3 years ago since I saw the immersive engineering guides. 👍
Yes. I'm currently trying to convince Curseforge to let it exist...
What mod has the colorful trees in the background?
Quark
