Getting Started (Tekkit)

In this guide, we will cover how to get started with the Tekkit modpack.

Pre-requisites
This guide assumes you have played the game Vanilla-style and you have the following ores in the specified quantities:


 * 2 stacks of Iron Ore, Copper Ore, Tin Ore, and Coal Ore.
 * 1 stack of Silver Ore and Lead Ore.
 * 32 pieces of Gold Ore.
 * 10 Diamonds.

Starting up
Craft two Steam Dynamos, some Leadstone Conduits, and a Pulverizer.

A Pulverizer allows you to pulverize an ore to get two dust. That dust can be smelted in a Furnace, allowing you to double your ore output.

Begin pulverizing your ores using the power from the Steam Dynamos, crafting more Dynamos and Pulverizers as you get more resources. Eventually, craft a Redstone Furnace and start using those.

Better storage
Eventually, you'll have quite a bit of stuff that is likely disorganized. Let's fix that by created an ME Network.

Craft a ME Controller, a ME Access Terminal, a ME Drive, and a few ME 1k Storage disks. Attach the Controller to your power source, and place the Terminal and Drive immediately next to the Controller. Left-click on the ME Drive and insert the 1k Storage disks.

Left-click on the ME Access Terminal and begin putting items into it from your chests. This guide recommends not putting in tools or weapons, as these can fill up your ME Network if they are damaged.
