- Hello,
This is my epic journey through the classic old Minecraft modpack called Gregtech: New Horizons aka GTNH
But instead of playing it in a normal world, I'm playing it in a void world starting out with nothing...
Yup!
Literally, NOTHING!!!
The challenge is called "Garden of Grind"
I'm playing and recording this through the Prism Minecraft modpack Launcher.
*here's a link to the .pdf if you're crazy enough to give this challenge a go for yourself(updated!);

Thanks for watching me suffer lols!

Now Iâm cooking!
your cooking :D
With gas, i presume?
It only took over 2 years in game time to get a basic cobble gen :')
IndeedâŠ
@@gardenofgrind Better late than never.
basically we see human technology evolution but in game , sooner or later the technology progress is gonna skyrocket
Investing in bees asap would be wise. There are bees that directly get rubber and other basic resources which would save you literal buckets of exp. Some of these require chemical reactors or LV centrifuges to process, but a few of them don't, and you will probably be getting the LV centrifuge very soon. There's also an effect that some bees have which constantly gives you exp. If you look in NEI at the "gene sample" item from gendustry, many of them including "effect"s have a tooltip explaining what they do, and if you click on their recipes, the genetic sampler shows what bees have that gene (you don't need the genetic sampler obviously, it's simpler than manual breeding but it's LuV/ZPM)
but there's no beehives cuz it's a skyblock
@@tetrikitty1686also its minecraft 1.7.10 and bees were added in 1.15
@@luminance69 you're joking right...? Forestry bees
@@luminance69 XD?
â@@tetrikitty1686reading through the docs, their way of getting bees initially is through quest, where you craft a scoop and get enough bee coins to buy 2 hives, and hope you get 2 princesses form that, after that it'll be a straight grind to alveary for swarmer
Dan, please, do yourself the favour and make the Steam Extractor!! Then you can run sticky resin from stickreed through it and get 3 raw rubber dust at a time! Please dont spend your precious exp on that stuff! Anyway, loving the episode
Yea⊠I was waiting for this comment.
Whoops, realized that after I crafted it.
Oof
"and why have I never used this before?"
Good news, you aren't stupid or anything, this feature is a GTNH original!
Iâm in love with it tbh, amazing addition
Dan, another tip! Get a gregtech crop manager as soon as you can, it will automatically harvest any ic2 crop in an 11x11 diameter (5 blocks each side of the block), incredibly useful for all the berries and blazereeds!
Good to know, thanks for that.
;)
Your save âscummingâ is warranted and I canât blame you for it at all. Do it some more if you need to
Aww cheers, I donât plan on doing it againâŠ
It wasnât fun(nearly 3hrs oof!)
Another tip for bookmarks: If you click the page numbers above your bookmarks, you will switch the view from rows to columns. This is useful in combination with your ctrl+shift+a bookmarks because the entire recipe will be on one row, so it helps separate different recipe bookmarks.
It certainly does!
Others suggested this to me and Iâve been using it(a lot)
Thanks!
:)
Hey Dan, you don't need protect steam machines from rain, since there is nothing to short circuit. But if your Solar Boiler or Coal Boiler runs out of water while hot you will have a very large explosion
Yea I heard that a while agoâŠ
I should read the quests better, but I guess itâs good practice lol.
;)
For the villagers this is turning into Garden of Gore!
*you didnât see anythingâŠ!
for NEI, the top section on the left can be used to toggle between normal and vertical mode, it lets you view one recipe per row (gtnh only)
shift + r to bookmark a recipe and its component, ctrl + r to bookmark items with quantity, combined those two and you have a great addition to NEI
again, on the left side, at the bottom there's a page which you can flip through and create a new page for bookmarks, useful when you have a few things in mind and don't want it all on one giant page, or you simply ran out of space on one
it's probably a bit late now, but do use more workbench from forestry! their uses early on is precious, use it to craft screws easier (no more manually rearranging recipes, they work with gt tools), firebricks, and later on lv components and circuit parts, it's a lifesaver for recipes with unstackables
you could put the xp drain in a 2x2 and stand in the centre of it to quadruple your speed of draining exp, unsure if 3 more valves is needed though
Another comment suggested that you rush for the LV crop manager, and while that is a good goal, it requires an LV assembler which is quite expensive to craft. Plus you've also got that cutting machine that you want to get, and a wire mill so you can get cheaper wires, and and and...
I would recommend that you get a wire mill first (or second, after the cutting machine) just because the number of wires that everything greg takes is quite frankly ludicrous and you can not afford to be wasting resources right now. As well, when you do get an assembler, it will open up a bunch of cheaper recipes for various things like circuit boards and vacuum tubes.
Noted, thanks for that!
:)
My plan;
Basic steam turbine, wire mill, cutting machine and then assembler.
Probz a long shot but⊠we will see haha
Got the notification and ran to my bed to watch this episode I'm loving this!
Hhahaha brilliant
first time catching one of these as its uploaded, been loving the series so far!
âEarly birdâ
Bees and a smeltery⊠reminds me of my E6E playthrough where I had resources generated by bees and the last step of the processing I used sent them into a max size smeltery. It was a rather terrible way of mass smelting, but I had fun making it so the only losses were all the times it got clogged
Anyway! Great video as always
That sounds like a rather interesting way of generating resources, itâs all about XP on here(for now, at least!)
Thanks
:)
This series has been such a fun and interesting one to watch especially with it being back in version 1.7.10.
Keep up the great work!
This got uploaded just in time as i was looking for something interesting to watch. Keep up the good work!
Getting rid of villagers by force in order to not have them go by entity cramming is like mercy
I usually don't comment on CZcams videos but, Dan, I gotta say, it's something about your videos that's just really enjoyable. I found myself looking forward to the next episodes a few times now. So keep up the great work :)
Also let me add, I was so scared at around 24:00 when you didn't turn off the steam engine because it looked like it was gonna explode (and that generally seems like something GTNH would add), and my heart genuinely skipped a beat when that sound effect started playing at 24:30.
If you want to have something else to do as a little bonus on the side, you could try to get more extra hearts by growing saplings you buy from those arborist villagers, in hopes of getting different types of fruit. Its.. not much, but at least its something else to do on the side while waiting for other things to finish being done. A lot of this seems to be just waiting, and its good to have stuff to do while waiting! Also, as a bonus, you get different colors of wood, which are... still flammable until you get far enough to be able to make the wood fireproof. you CAN do that actually, but i'm not sure how fa away a thermionic fabricator is to make in gtnh, so you probably won't be able to do that for a while. Just know that it Is possible to make fireproof wood.
You also can't really go into tree breeding without a treealyzer to actually be able to tell what mutations your saplings have. I mean, you technically COULD, but good luck lol
without any bees, you'd also need to rely entirely on butterflies for pollination (you cant get pollen collection kits until IV) , which again, good luck lol, but it Is possible since im pretty sure that any forestry tree can spawn butterflies?
tl;dr go buy some trees and try to get fruits for more hearts if you're bored and not sure what else to do while waiting. its at least something to do
The thing about butterflies is that actually using butterflies is a meme. I genuinely don't know how they work all I know is they can pollinate stuff and that nobody wants to use them, to the point where the gtnh pest killer will literally kill butterflies just because their pathfinding can cause a tiny bit of lag.
That makes me want to get into butterflies even more now!
:P
loving this!
Hey man, just want to say that im reeally lovong the series and that it's really comforting and calming to watch.
Really appreciate you making it.
You can fling steel dust from the chain mail in the smeltery now! Takes ages but can do a whole lot at once to save lava. Much more agreeable than the blast furnace.
But⊠lava is precious!
I swear IC steam engines used to explode if you let them heat up all the way, which thankfully it seems I was wrong. I was sitting here waiting for disaster to strike as yours filled up đ
lol, that would of been hilarious!
They arenât IC btw, they are Railcraft ones
@@gardenofgrind Seems I was wrong in more ways that one!
Love this series man, keep up the good work!
Loving the series so far. Happy to finally catch up, even more happy that I didn't have to wait long for a new episode :D
Seeing you just march right into making LV motors and stuff without once opeing the LV chapter in the questbook (or even follow it through the steam age) is equal parts hilarious and frightening to watch haha
you can smelt steel dust in the smeltry without cooking it in a blast furnace. Also you can cast left over steel into ingots. Also if you make additional 5 seared blocks you can make 4x4 smeltry with 4 layers, so that you can smelt up to a stack of items simultaneously
IT'S JUST A THEORY...A GregTech THEORY
woah nice, I just found your channel (Regian recommended you :D) and you upload a new episode an hour later - perfect timing!
this is one of the most interesting GTNH projects I have seen so far, I'm looking forward to the next years :P
Loving this series mate keep going :D
If you are going for the cutting machine, you can then get a Transfer Node plus a World Interaction Upgrade from Extra Utilities. That on your cobble gen + a drawer = passive infinite cobblestone.
Ohh that sounds amazing, thatâll also make the cutting machine worth it.
Thanks
;)
28:40 âI finished pickingâ
garden of grind - 2024 experience farm tradeđšđšđš
This series has been amazing content so far, super entertaining. The crowbar part made me lol as I remembered having the exact same moment.
drawer controller(pipe into this), a load of drawers, a key to lock items, stack and void upgrades
Also works as a rudimentary sorting system so you can put armour straight into a machine or even smelter
never played gregtech, no idea how expensive all of this is
Love the episode. Def look into the power of bees when you are a little farther along. Bc you canât mine for resources they are a pretty good way of getting at least a little passive mats. Love the content!!
just to help out, you can upgrade tc tools with redstone in a crafting table 8 at a time, surrounding the tool in the center so you dont have to do it 50 times in the tinkers one
Seriously lol, thanks dude!
You can also use the blocks to get 9 at a time
Blocks work, yeah. But this is GTNH, so you cant "craft" blocks, youve got to process them
@@LiquidMetal91 which is 9 in a compressor, which he does have.
Which would take steam he could use to process metals. Saving a few clicks over progress? Easy choice early game
19:00 certified gtnh experience
If you put a chest next to tinkers crafting station, it can take its inventory for crafts.
I usually keep my tools and parts in that chest its like a mini ME system
I love these videos so much I hope you make it very far into this pack
On the TCSmeltery drain, if its on the corner like toi have, you can use both sides with a faucet. Saves making an extra drain~
You can also click on the header text in bookmarks tab
It says
(1/1)[some number]
to split pinned recipes in seprate rows
also you have multiple pages for bookmarks to stay organized
you can navigate through them on the footer of the bookmarks tab
This feature just keeps on getting better the more I know!
Thanks
The goat uploaded
woohoo more GoG Greg!
This is amazing and for some reason, your voice sometimes sounds like Stampy's voice... That could just be me but keep up the good (and arduous) work! You can get anything you dream of!
Please contiue this series all of this is so fucking fun, I discovered your channel with this series as a gregger myself, keep it up!
You can transform cobblestone to Tinkers Large plates (8 cobblestone each) and smelt these to save some lava
You can make another blast furnace that share the wall with your current one. That way you will have two of them and save from making 11 blocks for a second one
Yea I spotted that in the controller text, thatâs pretty awesome.
;)
I only know this from speedrunning, but 1.7.10 has a strange bug where if you look at a bottom slab, it will make all top slabs temporarily have the hitbox of the bottom slab until you look away, its allowing the baby mobs through, just replace that bottom slab next to your mob farm with a stair and you should be all good
the channel really took off!
Hey! just wanted to tell you about the redstone clock. when i set it to pulse every second, it stops in the middle of pouring from the smeltry. just so you know :) you should check it
I would enjoy seeing quest book progress in the garden of grind
Iâve got you covered.
;)
@@gardenofgrind looking forward to it one of my favourite parts of Greg tech new horizons plus can provide helpful info and goals
7:02 There are numbers above recipes "(1/1) [16]". It's actually a button. Press left click and your saved recipes on current page will be sorted into lines. Each line will contain only one recipie. It's usefull if you have a list of different recipes
You can make the cobblestone generator much more efficient without using extra lava by just making 3 cobblestone generators directly next to one another and putting the lava in the middle generator, then put hoppers under all the cobble, then mine all 3 blocks (depending on how fast your pick is, you might only get 2 at a time)
You will need a lot of steel for LV machine casings, so you should start preparing, and possibly make more blast furnaces. Technically, first LV machine you will make is not a cutting machine, but LV turbine, that power has to come from somewhere after all.
Which will likely coincide with making a steam tank and expanding steam generation, as you will need a lot of steam. You will also want to upgrade some of your steam machinery (boilers especially) into HP versions, as machines are costly, and circuits are pain (please don't repeat my mistakes and make at least batch of 16, you will run out in no time)
Some of the most important LV upgrades are bending machine and lathe, as they allow making plates and rods without wasting material. Assembler will allow you to conserve tools and sometimes materials, and you will also face greg chemistry and your first real multiblock.
Bending machine, lathe, but most importantly A WIRE MILL. SOOOOOOO much materials savings in these 3 machines. Plates, rods, screws, wire... all for no tool cost and with the highest output ratios
you should make a chest next to your crafting table because as long as its the tinkers one you will have a side inventory panel where you can keep your gregtech crafting tools for easier crafting
I should, youâre right!
Not sure why I forgot this mechanic, thanks.
@@gardenofgrind are you allowed to go to the nether in garden of grind or is it against the rules
@@jasondirenza3997 Nope, no dimensions sadly...
My favourite series on CZcams at the moment!
In the future use the alloy smter or mixer when making alloys, itâs normally more efficient than crafting.
Yup, Iâve been using the alloy smelter to create bronze(that extra I got goes a long way lol)
Awesome
But u could use stickreed (sticky resin) in steam extractor to get raw rubber... 3 per 1 rubber ball AFAIK. WhAt of an XP LOSS...
Also, you can put items into GT item pipes (from tin for example) using hoppers, this could give you an idea about automatic forestry table filling using hopper under XP tank.
Also you can smelt multiples of cobblestone by melting tinkers large plates (single contains 8 cobble to melt)
btw, long way passed, you are trully impressive
I'm not sure if Thais is true for GoG but in GTNH crops are more efficient if they haver 3 blocos of dirty underneath and then the special block (in your case skeleton skulls). When you haver LV power you should take a look at crop manager it'll handle watering, harvesting and all for you
Day 5 of asking
@gardenofgrind at the end of the series could your enormous gigantic mega base take up a 63by63 region files and it has outside and inside decoration such as houses, pathways/streets, signs, parks ETC...?
Wait, I thought the stone age was supposed to be before the steam age
17:30 you can decalcify your solar boiler
You can skip the rubber bar ti sheet by putting the wire and the bar into the alloy furnace!
Wouldn't it be better to create new steel ingots than turning steel dust into ingots, because if I remember you can melt dust in the smeltery. Also solar boiler efficiency can be reset by breaking and replaceing it, don't scrap your steam setup because it will be useful to generate early power
But remember Iâve got only a tiny bit of lava, so I need to conserve it, believe me I donât want to go through that pain again haha
@@gardenofgrind you can always start combining bees like you did with crops, but the hard part will be getting needed bees
cobble to the moon
you should really expand your XP berry farm, the light condition actually doesn't matter
I have already expanded it to what I feel is enough, my plan isnât to use them forever.
Itâs far to tedious, a better mob farm will generate enough(way more, automatically via testing)
Just need that vacuum hopper
Can you explain the ctrl shift a to me i tried on a different pack and it dosent work is it specific to this pack or a jei config?
its exclusive to the gtnh version of nei
@@timyio5381 that sucks ty
Oh by the way the questline info for the solar boiler is inaccurate. It stops at 33% efficiency, not 0%.
Its scrap age to CREATE a cobblestone generator !!!!
im like 90% sure you can just use a lever on the smeltery, you don't need the redstone clock
Yes you can, it just needs redstone to pour.
But the reason I want the clock is cause it pulses, therefore pours liquids automatically
@@gardenofgrind if you leave the lever on it will just keep pouring tho
@@RemagOfficial the lever is there for the opposite, to stop it from pouring.
How many hours are you in?
Next time you use steel in the smeltry you should smelt down the steel dust instead of wasting already cooked steel. I cringed watching you use all of that cooked steel instead of your much more plentiful dust
Good pointâŠ
Upload = like
Why don't you just move the entire drawer when you consume exp berries? drawers do keep inventory after all
Not in this modpack
@@joesutherland672 that's just evil...
You can use the Alloy smelter to make oven bricks, you can get rubber dust from the sticky resin, you can put the steel powder in the smeltery and it's faster,
Librarian â Liberian â
Hey, I'm a bit confused as to how he got obsidian dust. Can somebody explain please?
nvm, XP buckets as always
Am i missing something or couldn't you now just go to the neather?
Yes I could easily, but Iâm not allowed to travel to other dimensions lol
@@gardenofgrind ah, ok. Fair enough
17th lol
