Advanced Inscriber (AE2 Stuff) Processor Auto-Crafting - Applied Energistics 2 Tutorial

[@huqzh6375]

the guy that got me into ae2 still brings the shit. keep it up bro. would like to see u doing tutorials on pneumaticraft also :*

[@therealtkh]

Cool, thanks! I've never been really interested in Pneumaticraft but it's probably because I never had any incentive to learn it... I don't have any specific videos or topics planned at this time so I do things as I go. Who knows what I need to learn next week? ;)

[@ibrudiiv]

Just did a similar method. Seems to be working fine with 2 acceleration cards on the advance inscriber and 4 in the import hub off of it Thanks for the video :)

[@nosurname9652]

Thanks for another AE tutorial. Learned a lot from you.

[@therealtkh]

My pleasure, thanks!

[@deathbysleeping]

11:37 You have to extract from the open face. You can make the opening face down and use a output hopper but then the bottom (original) and top (original) becomes the sides (face down) and the back (original) becomes the top (face down) for the feed input hoppers.

[@ElMiniRichMC]

In the 5 inscriber system you don't need import buses on the first 4 inscribers, the storage buses can passively provide items, just put a export bus on the 5th inscriber.

[@RektOrNah]

hey I know this is ages ago, could you explain your setup? I have Storage on top first 4 inscribers, and then plain smart cable down the bottom providing power, got a export with the circuits on top of the 5th but redstone isn't being inserted just chilling on the top me interface.

[@ElMiniRichMC]

@@RektOrNah You need another storage bus in the 5th inscriber because the export bus cant export the redstone that its not in the inscriber sub-system because is in the interface, and the interface is trying to deliver that item inside the system but there's no default storage so you need a storage bus to tell that redstone goes somewhere, is this case, the 5th inscriber.

[@ElMiniRichMC]

And that storage bus also provides the output for the export bus that connects to the ME interface (block)

holy cow, that works! You saved my nervous, thank you man

Another AE2 Tutorial - Auto-Crafting Processors with the Advanced Inscriber from AE2 Stuff. Two methods: one very compact and one larger and faster. A bit more convenient than the normal Inscriber from AE2.

[@DemonicFerya]

Thanks exactly what i needed to know

[@Daniel-vt5uq]

I seem to have a slight problem, the system works fine for me every time, but as soon as I add a security terminal the processors don’t get extracted from the 5th inscriber, any help will be much appreciated

[@emmaa176]

You need to add a blank biometric card with permission to deposit items into the system

[@ramiroabrego9382]

after 3 hours of being a total brain dead because i just started with ae2 i finally figured it out

[@ShinySC]

I ran into an issue where the Advanced Inscriber refuses to accept vanilla items (Diamond, Redstone, Gold). It accepts presses, silicon and certus quarts fine and can process them, but anything involving a vanilla item cannot be input or processed.

[@immortalsun]

Yea, the problem with requiring the press is you can’t craft multiple without multiple presses unless you make patterns that make multiple printed items at once.

[@therealtkh]

True, but acceleration cards makes it quite fast so it's usually not a problem. If you really want parallel work you can always make more copies of a press!

[@elchistosoof]

For some reason i can only do 1 at a time does anyone know why this happens?

[@therealtkh]

Note that the mod seems to be buggy and has not been updated for a long time. I don't know what pack you're playing though. Not sure what you mean, only one crafting job at a time or one processor per order?

[@tallformyage]

This is great. Worked fine for me and I like the setup!

[@cryptickosmos7703]

Hmmm I’m having trouble with the Engineering press and the logic pressing not getting extracting from the advanced inscriber, the silicon and calculation press get extracted with no problem.

[@lonesage76]

love the tutorial but one glaring issue in the 1.19 variant where the advanced inscriber cannot lock that top slot or bottom anymore resulting in the the system saying that it need (if i call 64 of that engineering board) 64 presses and 64 diamonds when it only needs 1 press for it to work properly make and reuse, its made me stuck and there are no current tutorials on this or a work around to be found.

[@Nathanlevi]

Mind letting me know if you figure something out for this issue

[@deadhacksonline8595]

I was actually needing help, it was simple to fix, but hard to find out for me, that was why wasnt any of the crafting queues going to my advanced inscriber? I then find out that the inscriber was needed to be right next to the interface, which was dumb, but easily fixable.

[@LA-dd3pn]

I dont understand. For what reason does the ME Storage Bus put items in the inscriber? What's the logic behind it? I have the same working setup but why does the storage bus actually put silicon in the press?

[@therealtkh]

I guess that you refer to the second setup... The logic is that the entire upper part is a standalone network. And when we get items into the network (using the Interface), it wants to store them somewhere. And thanks to Storage Bus it can find an inventory in the Inscriber.

[@LA-dd3pn]

@@therealtkh Genius, where else can I apply this?

[@FrodoBaggin]

I'm playing Project Ozone 3 and my setup is exactly as yours is, however I can only craft 1 at a time, then it gets stuck with the Inscriber Silicon Press, and the printed Silicon on green. It has 10 silicon available. The remaining 9 printed silicon are just scheduled.

[@therealtkh]

Sorry for late reply (going through what I have missed), is it the first setup with a single setup? This setup isn't perfect because of bugs in the mod, sometimes that might be the issue. Some people say it helps with other mods to extract the finished product.

[@itzzisp4cs]

I have a problem with the crystal grow chamer it wont craft the seeds i need help pls

[@therealtkh]

I can try to help but I know nothing about your build and nothing about your game (modpack, mod versions for AE2 etc). So make sure to provide as much info as possible, otherwise it's impossible to do anything.

[@DarkRavenProductions]

The advanced inscriber i have set up for circuits will not accept Redstone either manually or automatically

[@therealtkh]

It's hard to help with no knowledge about the setup but it worked quite fine for me in this tutorial world and in my playing world at that time (Enigmatica 2). However, the mod has some bugs and have not been updated in a long time so it might be because of that as well.

[@DarkRavenProductions]

I couldn’t find any information so I just went back to using the normal inscribers with speed upgrades

[@therealtkh]

@@DarkRavenProductions This month I released two videos on auto-crafting with regular Inscribers, just an FYI ;)

[@kburdges]

I put an import bus with no filters on the left side of the advanced inscriber and the interface with all of the patterns on the back side. It worked with no acceleration cards. Playing Revelation pack on 1.12.2

[@Mormoran]

Could you do a step by step on how to build the second example in this video? I know it's old, but it was a bit fast to follow where to place the import/export buses and why

[@therealtkh]

Hmm, I'm so used with AE2 builds so I didn't consider that part to be hard to follow :) Feel free to jump on to Discord, might be easier to help with screenshots and text there.

[@Kilobe1]

Hey, i'm kinda confused on why your design auto-crafts circuits when needed, and mine doesn't..

[@therealtkh]

Was that a question? :) I'm not sure how to assist if I don't understand the problem.

[@Kilobe1]

[@therealtkh]

@@Kilobe1 So the import buses are not working? You could try with other mods to extract them.

[@Kilobe1]

@@therealtkh Uhmmm so, I found a way to extract them but then, the ME interfaces keeps the items to craft processors on them.. Any idea?

[@Gamer4Ever99]

Hey, thanks for the tutorial. I haven't tested your automated setup yet, but I'm having trouble with the advanced inscriber itself. Can you input resources manually? I tried making a logic processor and it wouldn't work at all. Any help would be very much appreciated.

[@therealtkh]

Yes, it works fine. You only need to connect power and you can insert every part manually, from silicon, printed circuit to finished processor.

[@ellibrashiza849]

Kinda late, but I am currently building (trying to at least) your system... I have an interface connected to me auto crafting unit which should connect it normally to the rest of the ME System, the moment I put the storage buses ontop of the inscribers and set the filter, the system automatically pumps gold (in case of the Logic Press) into the inscriber without me wanting it to... Do you have any idea what the problem could be and what I can do in order to fix it? Thank you very much in advance!!

[@therealtkh]

Hmm, is it exactly this build? I don't understand exactly how your setup looks and it would be a lot easier to have some screenshots to go with the text. If you can jump onto Discord or Facebook I might be able to help.

[@febxx3b]

In Enigmatica 2:expert, the import bus for last advanced Inscriber won't work, I replace it with enderio item conduit and it work perfectly 👍👍

[@therealtkh]

Good to know! The AE2 Stuff mod is a bit unreliable...

[@stepx-w1s]

Hello I just discovered your video a few days ago. However when I follow your tutorial, it was not working :(. The inscribers are not crafting things and the CPU is waiting till forever. Is the use of cables matters?

[@therealtkh]

I'm sorry but it's very hard to answer without knowing anything about the build. When it comes to AE2, almost everything in the network is important and any error can make things not work. Cables can be "regular" glass cable or smart cable, but keeping an eye on channels is important. Build in creative if things are not working, always easier to quickly debug and change things.

[@gogogregor245]

I am having an issue with this build, the top interface holds the items required (gold , redstone and silicon) but they never leave the interface? any help would be appreciated

[@therealtkh]

Is the Inscriber empty? How is it configured? did you place every block and configured patterns and devices as I did in the video? I know that it worked when I recorded this video but I don't know how you built, what modpack or version you're using or anything. Really hard to guess. Sometimes it can help to rotate the Interface so the arror points towards the machine you want to use.

[@gogogregor245]

@@therealtkh The build is the exact same, but its okay I found an alternative build with a little less autonomy

[@aesieaiyahcloe]

How do you get that interface with an arrow? Did I miss it somewhere in the video?

[@therealtkh]

I didn't cover that part in this video so you didn't miss it. It's usually not required but you can aim the interface if you want to (like if there's a machine trying to output in wrong direction or if there are several next to each other. Just right click with wrench and it will rotate in some weird way (takes a few clicks to get it right).

[@aesieaiyahcloe]

Thanks! I think I just derped that one up by crouch rightclick and getting confused. 🤣🤣🤣😅

[@Conman1161]

Thank you for the amazing tutorial! I've used this in prior versions of the mod because you've done loads of great things, but in MC 1.19.2 (AE2 Things 1.1.1, AE2 12.9.2) this no longer seems to work (at least for me). I've followed your video to a T in both survival and creative, both failing to automatically extract the presses from the Advanced Inscriber. AE2 Things is a port of AE2 Stuff so I expect it to work even slightly different, but for the most part everything works fine: items funnel in, it extracts circuits and processors, but despite including the presses as an output in the patterns they do not remove themselves. Also, there is no longer a lock icon next to the slots in the Advanced Inscriber. Also, I think interfaces have been replaced my Pattern Providers for the most part. Is there any way you could help me figure out why these designs no longer work or a solution to extract the patterns? I tried placing an import bus on the Advanced Inscriber to remove the patterns, but they didn't work (unless I didn't do something properly with them).

[@winnex317]

Hello, I am trying to automate this as well (project ozone 3) and it's not working how I am used to. I want to setup inscribers with ME interfaces and then have a level emitter control it so I always have 1,000 of each processor. How would I go about that?

[@therealtkh]

There are a couple of ways to do this but I'm going through some ways in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKXNhY1qd9KCf8k If it's not what you're after perhaps we can think of something else.

[@winnex317]

@@therealtkh Thank you, I think I can figure something out with the information from the video. But it certainly has become wonkier to achieve this now than I remember.

[@therealtkh]

@@winnex317 Well, advanced features should not be simple to set up ;)

[@winnex317]

@@therealtkh Of course ;) I meant the way the level emitters are setup, it would be smarter if you could make a card upgrade for the ME interface, which has kind of like a filter interface, where you can define an item and the amount it should keep. And the system granted it has the right patterns and setup elsewhere with crafting storage, will auto craft or process to keep the defined item and its count in stock.

[@therealtkh]

@@winnex317 Yes, today you can only keep a stack in an Interface with the crafting card upgrade, so the big numbers require completely different setups! If you find a way to make a better solution, feel free to share it :)

[@tailored4extra817]

Bet you love getting comments 3 years down the line, but for some reason my ME system doesn’t register the seeds have a crafting pattern if I individually craft the seeds I can but if I try to craft the pure crystals it doesn’t work

My Inscriber Press' can sometimes still hang in the Adv Inscriber even without speed upgrades. :( Not a very reliable system but better than nothing I suppose. EDIT: Now they are holding the output items for no reason. This system doesn't work at all for me anymore.

[@therealtkh]

As can be seen in the video, the known bug makes it so that I have both functional and problematic setups with this method. The setup I built in my Enigmatica 2 world works perfectly (the compact version) but in the test world I had lots of issues getting it "quite stable". Until they fix that bug I think we're stuck with the problem unless someone finds a nice workaround - perhaps with other mods.

It looks that way when looking at releases (1.7 is latest I think), but it's still included in a lot of new modpacks (at least 1.12) because it seems to work to the most part.
