Zedek’s Tutorials – Basics of Embers Rekindled

Hi this is a menthe tutorial and embers rekindled for 1.12 point to embers rekindled is a dwarven themed immersive magic and Technology mod it adds ores or processing alloys tools pipes a heat based magic energy system and a steam-powered mechanical energy system I’ll be going over how to get started

The energy systems and the basic machines of this mod and we’ll assume you have you there any eye or jeo installed so I won’t go over the recipes in too much detail embers ads the mob ancient golem which when killed drops in ancient motive core and archaic brakes you can use these to

Craft the ancient codex which functions as the in-game documentation for the mod it is arranged under five sections and can be overwhelming as there’s no clear starting point at first glance the first thing you want to do is stock up on caman I blend which is made by crafting

Four pieces of clay and one block of sand you can use that to craft cama night plates or cook it in a furnace and get cama night bricks these materials are used extensively for the machines and tools used in embers rekindled once you’ve got it on 40 riyals gathered in

Your game you can get started on producing ember energy before you do that you’re going to want to get an atmospheric gauge and make sure that you’re not setting up in an area with low ember ember flow is an ingredients section by chunks and the higher the

Gauge the more the Ember bars will yield ember bores are machines which you saw the fuel to grind bedrock and get amber crystals the ember borer spawns a multi block structure and for it to work properly the blades will need to touch bedrock the board requires furnace fuel

Such as coal charcoal and blaze rods to get the items into and out of the boards you’re going to use pipes just connect an item extractor to the container you with the fuel you want to use and use item pipes to connect it to the top

Center of the Ember bar to get the extractor to actually work you’ll need to apply a redstone signal to it which is easily done by attaching either a vanilla lever or a cabinet lever the cabinet lever functions identically to a vanilla lover and is only different cosmetically just flip the lever and it

Will start extracting as soon as the board receives who’ll it will start automatically while the Emperor uses one block for both input and output types alone cannot be used to input fuel and pull the resources at the same time to do that you’ll need to use mechanical core and place it on top

Mechanical core acts as a phantom phase to a multi-block ports and allow you to attach machine accessories to extend it even further however accessories attached accessories do nothing connect the pipes from your fuel source to either the mechanical core or machine accessory base then use an item extractor on another face and

Pipe it into the container you want the resources from the Ember board to go into the ember bore will produce ember crystals ember shards and ember grit which are all used for various crafting recipes member crystals and ember shards however are used as a source for ember energy

Now on to actually getting em their energy to do that you will need an ember activator while we’re here you should get a tinker’s hammer and an ember dial the tinkers hammer is used to make plates and to configure ember emitters and receptors the Ember dial can be put

On ember holding blocks to display how much amber is help moving on we’re going to put down an Amber activator and connected to this chest filled with ember shards once you flip the lever the item pipes will fill the activator with as much as it can hold the activator

Will then convert the shards into an ember energy and store it within the machine as you can see once you place the amber dial on the top part it will do this until the internal buffer is filled or if the activator runs out of shards to actually transport the energy

We’re going to use the Ember emitter and the Ember receptor place the emitter on the block you want to output energy and the receptor on the block you want to receive it for now we’ll use this copper cell which stores amber energy once you’ve got the emitter and receptor in

Place you need to configure them using the tinker’s hammer to do this shift right-click the receptor and then right-click the emitter finally you place a lever on the emitter and flip it on to activate the transfer process according to the ancient codex there is no actual limit to the distance

Between an admit or and receptor however energy has lost the further go so for efficiency sake you may want to consider using an ember relay which are configured just like an emitter and receptor member energy is used to power the various machines added in mod for demonstration purposes we’ll start with

The mechanical pump the mechanical pump requires a use of fluid pipes which function identically to item pipes but transport fluids instead also be helpful to use fluid dials which tell you how much fluid is stored within fluid holding blocks in the mod place a mechanical pump above a source block of

Water and then connect it to your ember source don’t forget levers once connected it will begin to fill its internal storage with water which you can see by placing a fluid dial on to it for now we’ll use the fluid pipes to deposit the water pumped into a fluid

Vessel the fluid vessel is a block that just holds sixteen buckets worth of fluid and can have fluids put in and out of it with a bucket as you can see the pump is working and filling with water and moving it to the fluid vessel so it vessels are best used

As a buffer a more convenient way of storing large amounts of fluid is with the RISM reservoir the reservoir is like the bore in that it is a multi-block structure that spawns from just one block on its own the reservoir doesn’t store anything and requires the use of

Cam night rings just place the ring block on the center of the reservoir and it will spawn another multi block structure while the ring looks like a fence it is only one block tall so you can jump on it and there’s an invisible collisionless block at the center to

Make expanding the reservoir easier every cam night ring adds 40 buckets of storage much like the bore while you could just pipe directly into the center it makes more sense to use a mechanical core or a machine accessor as it allows you to input and output fluid as well as attach

A fluid dials so you can monitor the amount story if you notice the pump isn’t going very fast and that is because it is a mechanical pump and while it is meant to accept member energy it is much more efficient to use mechanical energy mechanical energy

Relies on gears and axles spun with a steam engine for that we’re going to need to produce steam for demonstration purposes I’ve recreated a functionally identical setup of what I just made the way to produce steam and embers is with a mini boiler mini boilers utilize heat given off from ember producing machines

To generate steam here we will place the mini boiler on to the ember activator make sure it’s facing activator the boiler requires water to be fed to it from the bottom which I have set up using this reservoir I highly recommend using a button on the fluid extract to

Regulate water the mini boiler generates a lot of steam from a little water and if it reaches a max capacity of 16 buckets of steam the mini boiler will explode and light the surrounding area on fire to try to avoid that this is what it looks like when the boiler gets

Too much steam because of its volatile nature you’ll want to make sure you have somewhere to put the steam despite it being a fluid steam cannot be held in a fluid vessel or reservoir so the only viable place to put it outside the mini boiler is in a

Steam engine the steam engine generates mechanical energy using steam it can generate steam with the input of water in solid fuel but is much more efficient to pop steam directly into it with fluid pipes now I went to actually wiring mechanical energy mechanical energy will spin axles which can spin gears there

Are five gears in the mod iron gold redstone gold inverted redstone gold and dawn stone the iron is the most basic gear and has a lowest speed cap gold is faster and Dawn Stone is a fastest the redstone gold gear is the same speed as a gold

But will not spin unless apply two redstone signal and the inverted version is the opposite and will spin on let’s apply a redstone signal connects the axle to the big gray square in the steam engine and extend that until you want the axle to turn to do this you’ll need

To use a gear frame the gear frame requires you to put gears into the faces of the frame so you can redirect the energy gear frames have only one input face which is unlike the other faces as it has metal covering it despite being called a mechanical pump you still need

A block called the mechanical actuator to receive mechanical energy if you ever not sure what face of the machine accepts or exports just get the tinkers lens when looking at a machine while holding a lens it will display what the face of the machine does blue arrows indicate receiving and orange arrows

Indicate exporting and bullet points meaning of their or place the actuator onto a side of the machine that says actuator slot and wiring mechanical energy into it for our purposes iron gears are fine and in general faster isn’t always better as machines that can use mechanical energy do have diminishing returns now that

Everything is wired up they should work as soon as the amber activator starts producing amber which we can get started by flipping this lover if you notice the pump is significantly faster and with this setup more water is generated than consumed other machines can be powered with mechanical energy

They are the amber board the Stamper the auto hammer and partially the mixer centrifuge as that still requires heat now you have an understanding of the energy system let’s move on to the various machines added the first machine is a most straightforward this is the automatic breaker it will automatically

Break any block in front of its blades it will drop this block into the world unless you put a bin on the opposite side of the blades bins are simple storage blocks which hold one stack of one item more importantly they automatically pick up items drop by machines starting off the production

Chain we have the melter the melter melts what is put into it using ember energy to put things in the melter you can either pipe it into the top half or you can just right-click it directly be careful the melter will accept anything in your hand to put a fluid dial just

Hold shift while right-clicking on the top half or is that are melted this way turn into two ingots worth of molten metal as a reminder one metal ingot is a hundred and forty-four mineral buckets or roughly one seventh of a bucket once the metal is in fluid form you can pump

It into a mixer centrifuge to make an alloy since we’ve got gold coming in we can make dawn stone the each of the four phases of the bottom half of the mixer act as its own tank so in order to make it not only you have to pump the molten

Metal into different phases here I have molten copper ready to be put into the mixer so once we flip the levers and have the proper amounts Don stone is a one to one golden copper the mixer will get to work and store the alloy in the

Top half to turn the molten metal back into ingots we’re going to need a Stamper the Stamper is made up of a Stamper a stamp base and a stamp there are four stamps a flat bar gear and plate stamp while you can craft gears and plates it is twice as efficient to

Use a Stamper for now we’ll use a bar stamp to get ingots as soon as the stamp base has a fluid – Matt – stamps recipe it will stamp it out normally the Stamper will just drop whatever was stamped but if you put a bin underneath it it will automatically pick it up

Allowing you to collect or type out the contents at your leisure finally we have the hearth coil this is another multi block structure which is placed the same way reservoirs bores and cami rings are placed the hearth coil converts ember energy directly into heat and heats up the coils once the coils

Are hot enough you can drop items you would want to cook in a furnace onto the coils once cooked the hearth coil will pull the cooked item into its internal inventory where you will need to use pipes to retrieve it the hotter the coils the faster things cook

At max temperature it takes roughly one second to cook one item and that should just about cover the basics of embers rekindled I’ll try to make a video on the more advanced stuff like transmutation and smithing next so subscribe if you’re interested or leave a comment if you’ve got any feedback
