Mod Spotlight Refined Storage Part2

[@TheHeathFamily]

@Direwolf20 You probably get a lot of people saying this but im happy too see your still posting videos after so many years. Ive been watching since 2010

[@landonkryger]

I'd be interested in a mod comparison episode showing the advantages/disadvantages of AE2 vs Refined Storage.

[@Mirality]

Landon Kryger Looks like mostly the difference is that this doesn't do channels, which is a matter of taste whether that's an advantage or disadvantage. And it counts number of items only, not types of items (so, better for storing non-stacking items). Also it does have fluid storage and doesn't have spatial storage, while AE2 was the opposite (not sure if that's still true in 1.10 though).

[@any1alive]

as he said abotu channels, but also refined storage uses mroe power

[@landonkryger]

Yeah, I know about those, but a explicit video about it would still be nice. Storage wise, it seems like AE2 holds a ton more for the "same size" chip.

[@Mirality]

Yes, it does. An AE2 1k storage cell can hold 8128 of one item, or 4095 total of 63 different types of items that can stack to 64, or 63 total non-stackable items. A RS 1k storage cell can hold exactly 1000 items, regardless of stackability. So RS is the clear winner for non-stackable items (eg. mob farming where they drop equipment), with AE2 winning for normal items. But then you need to balance that against how fun you find the channel system.

[@Twisted_Code]

The differences as far as I'm aware are as follows: cheaper recipes, no channel system, no "item type" constraint on items stored (but less total storage for stackable items in exchange), no spatial storage, item placers/breakers, and flexible redstone control. if you still think there needs to be a video (and I'll admit a video covering this in more detail would be nice, though possibly a little excessive), maybe you should be the one to make it?

[@FallingofftheGrid]

Seriously though, who on earth DISLIKES this stuff?! These videos are awesome. If you dislike the mod, take it up with the author. If you dislike Dire... what is wrong with you?! :p

[@MadderoftheFew]

The only thing you can dislike about these videos is the occasional annoying "Neat!" or "Cool!" after he describes something. Other than that, these videos are the most in-depth and descriptive mod guides on KZbin.

[@Stormcrownn]

Madder of the Few You tune them out after enough videos, and its honestly endearing.

[@jasonb6570]

@James Kirk never discussed? he said right in the video that the blocks have to be chunkloaded for the transmitters and receivers to work...

FYI, you don't need a second Crafter to make Cobblestone into Stone. The Crafter you got there will do the request. I tested it, and they work just like the ME Interfaces from AE2.

[@randomclipsandstuff7203]

Awesome

[@Permanentloops]

That's Vazkii's mod

[@AWZool]

One thing you should mention is that you can disassemble disks by shift right clicking with them in hand, so you can extract the storage component. This way you can consume your lesser, early built disks to build bigger ones (eg if you have 3 1k disks, you can take out the 3 storage components and use them to build a 4k)

[@hunternewberry5860]

Does that destroy the items on them?

[@JavierSegura]

@@hunternewberry5860 A disk will only disassemble with shift right click if it's empty. Also, disassembling a disk just creates 2 items, the Storage Housing and the Storage Part. So you don't have to craft all the items again and can just add the upgrade.

[@SaturninePlaces]

Whenever I need to know something about a mod, and there is a direwolf20 video on it, I know i'm going to end up figuring it out. These are literally the best tutorials on youtube.

[@RaizorSharpanel]

So this mod is a mix between AE 1, AE 2 and Extra Cells to some extent. I'll be honest, this mod is a really cool and neat combination of the above three, but AE will always have my heart.

[@joesamsally]

Long time viewer, feel silly that I looked up how to make proccessing patterns work up on youtube until I felt like a dummy (I was trying to use a interface like the old style). Eventually just looked up to see if you had a spotlight. You got quality learning going on here, thanks.

[@GarlicInYourEye]

Neat!! Holy cow, that was your favorite word today. Great spotlight as always!

[@jojolafrite90]

That has been his favorite word for like more than a decade, now.

Can't wait, i Really miss how AE1 worked, and this seems to improve with some QoL stuff

[@thomasharper9087]

Actually ae2 has come back (I assume you know as dire said so in todays video) but I have had a severe bug where the facades crash younupon being used (a week or so ago so I assume its fixed)

[@Jankoekepannekoek]

That process pattern encoder is pretty cool. Can it be used in combination with the destructor block and constructor block (place lava, break obsidian) to automate obsidian crafting if you have lava in the system?

[@buinguyen2083]

I’m confused, should oredictionary be checked?

[@zerobadideas]

What I would like is a way to say "this disk can only hold this list of specific items" so I can organize my storage.

[@Buffbud96]

Isn't there a way to specify only certain Mods for grids? I checked out the filter upgrade, but i don't see anyway to do it... I'm trying to set up separate grid areas for my different mod areas, but want everything connected to a main system

[@daihok8138]

Is there a way to trigger the autocrafting of specific item with out me having to click on the craft and make it craft?

So if my alloy smelter is covered by all sides but the one facing me how coul I power it?

[@BobRoffey]

Anyone know why my fluid collectors (for the canola oil) both run for a little while then stop and I have to keep clicking on the connection and setting them to disconnected and them back again. This resets them and they run again for maybe 10-15 mins and stop again! They have enough seeds in the droppers and there is room in the oil generators. I am playing single player and have (just in case) click on the FTB map to chunk load! Thanks....

How do you charge the wireless crafting grid?

[@dripthanos5595]

replying to an old comment ik, but you need some sort of charger, i recommend the energetic infuser from thermalseries but the wired charger from enderio also works

[@DrNighti]

can i combiend this mod with AE2? i mean if i coneckt them with a storrage bus.

[@DeadKavaiol]

So this is replacement for AE? There will not be new AE then?

[@NotAverageAfro]

Nah. This is an AE1 clone, and AE2 has an Alpha out atm that MIGHT be in his new modpack (comes out on Monday according to his twitter)

[@DeadKavaiol]

AverageAfro nice! AE looks much more fancy, glad author keeps working on it.

[@DTSephiroth]

This is pretty much Applied Energistics Lite. Great if you prefer less immersion or care about storing lots of non-stacking items.

[@quickhakker]

big question can you use prior disk drives to upgrade to next one up or will I end up with a 1k 2k 4k 8k ect sat doing nothing

[@MyNarsa]

you can shift+right click a empty one into the casing and the storage part, and then upgrade yes.

[@BenTheHun1]

You can throw the lesser disks into disc manipulator, to transfer to larger disks

that wasnt really the question it was mor e"can i upgrade the lesser discs BentheHun1

[@worldgate989]

Refined Storage looks a LOT like AE2

[@z-beeblebrox]

Because AE2 originally wasn't going to be ported to 1.10 So this was basically a ground-up clone so people who like AE2 could have it in the current version. Now that AE is most likely going to be updated, it's not clear what will happen to this mod.

[@worldgate989]

z beeblebrox If they could bring back the old MAC from AE1... i would dump AE2. I really dislike all those cables everywhere.

[@Rob02l]

Use the Ender IO conduits. They have both standard and dense conduit can it can run along side item, power, and fluid in a single block space that is then covered with the painted conduit facade. VERY tight, clean cabling.

[@worldgate989]

Rob O'toole Yea but that has nothing to do with AE2 having to run multiple cables that have varying amounts of data they can run. Plus those molecular chambers, the MAC was so much better.

[@ollepolle]

This helped me sooooooooooooooooooooo much

[@XelloJello]

Even though this is clearly a rip off version of AE, I would consider it a successor of AE for the time that AE is still in alpha for 1.10+. I hope that when AE is stable for 1.10, the AE devs will have added some of the features that are in refined storage. If they do not, I can see AE being left in the dust.

[@sommanker]

Awesome video explanation, thank you for the hard work, but good lord, I hope all your videos aren't filled with "neat", "cool", and "awesome" every other word. You can tone those down, you use them WAY too much. It's distracting from the actual message you're trying to get across.

[@MoonlitBrenya]

Until recently, the only real modding experience i have had was Life in the Woods, which is a good mod pack, don't get me wrong, I love it. I think the most complicated thing in it was carpenters blocks or maybe storage drawers. Then I came across Dataless822 playing All The Mods, and I showed this to my bf, and he's all I wants it, so we got it. I have been Sooooo Lost trying to figure out all the systems! Overwhelmed much. So we made our own modpack, and heavily slimmed down version, and I have Refined Storage, EnderIO, and Extra Utils 2 as well as a couple of others. Looking at the list of things in JEI regarding this mod has had me nervous but I think you have helped me considerably. I'm sure I am still going to be pulling hair, but at least now I have something I can refer to when I get hung up on something. Thank you. New to your channel, and new sub :)

[@Nerdule]

The ability to emit a redstone signal when autocrafting is requested is *really* powerful - it makes it much easier to do more sophisticated things than with AE2! Like, you could set up a "recipe" that makes cobble with no ingredients, and when you request it it uses that redstone signal to trigger a cobblestone generator. Or build one of those Botania rune autocrafting contraptions and trigger it when you request a Botania rune. So many possibilities!

[@jojolafrite90]

I'm so, but so... No, so very. Scratch that. UTTERLY overwhelmed and lost.

[@Jormungrandrserpent]

1 complaint, refined storage looks like RFtools and EnderIO, the same ugly shade of grey. There is atleast 50 shades of grey, the same shade gets old real fast :P

[@thomasharper9087]

Yeah, but you can make custom "covers" for the cables and this is still a WIP mod, take that bug with the chest not showing in the pattern during this spotlight for example

[@SubjektDelta]

Make your own texture pack then and publish it for the community! :D No too much work? Well fuck me because that's what the mod author thinks too!

[@Alpha0727]

PapíDimmi Lol! True that! Player 1: 'Damn, this mod is so good there is nothing to complain about!' Player 2: 'Well, you can always complain about how the blocks are all the same color.' Player 1: 'OMG, that is perfect!' Player 2: 'I was joking.'

[@DTSephiroth]

Actually, its been scientifically proven that the human eye can only distinguish about 30 shades. Anything more is mixed with another color which is no longer a pure grey. #themoreyouknow

This is more ae1 where it is all blocky and ae2 like where it has a more dynamic autocrafting system along with storage, but is more unique and different as it doesnt use facades, but instead has support for chisels and bits. refined sotrage doesnt require any crafting processors as it is all done within the crafters themselves
