Have been really wanting to get into AE over RS for something new but it's really intimidating to begin clean. Really appreciate the clear and concise videos. New sub here.
Excellent pacing and clarity, better than any AE 2 'project' I've seen on a streamer's play-through. At 16:33 on the Storage Bus, it might be useful to note that while the filter mode behaves exactly like the import/export buses from 10:25 on, the import and export buses actively push and pull items through the system. A Storage Bus only interacts with the attached storage when an action involves items it has in stock or can deposit. The action drives the moving. Like all interfaces, the priority picks that Bus if higher for pushing and if lower for pulling. It might be helpful to mention that both are counted as distance from the AE 2 network controller. The Storage Bus filter system means that even at this level of understanding, your AE2 system can do very complex things. You can drive LaserIO or ElementalCraft's linear pipe or Botania's crafty crate to run single-item-count, shaped and ordered crafting recipes. The last being insanely hard to automate outside of Integrated Dynamics. (e.g., Hexerie seed food, Hexerie washing or ElementalCraft advanced materials.) Sadly, if you are playing with AE 2 on a modpack that includes Refined Storage, a similar digital storage mod based on AE 1, there is no easy way to exchange items between them. Unlike the annihilation/formation planes trick does for exchanging items between AE 2 systems as shown at the end of the video (at 25:41) all methods are quite slow. Although if you are going RS-to-AE2, you can setup an annihilation plane 'pit' and stand in it while dropping things from the RS remote grid. Be sure to detach any external storage before doing such a thing. You don't want to manually drop a whole fully-upgraded Functional Drawer of cobblestone with upwards of 2.4 billion blocks. Even if you have a keyboard macro setup to drop items that will take hours when you hit that item.
I am fully onboard with you man! From mekanism guides to this, but damn I have to rewatch this because these lessons are alot to take in! Good work nevertheless mate! Thank you for reviewing this, I hope you do a create mod tutorial one day!!
Thank goodness for channels like yours, there are some mod packs that leave out the guidebook for some of these mods expecting the person to already know it... I just started getting into mod packs and was playing a mod that had me2 storage... But I just couldn't figure out how to make it work properly...
One day... one day I'll build a base that runs itself. I've been trying for what feels like centuries to do the AE thing to make a base that just runs itself, but either burnout, life, or distraction always gets the better of me. Trying to get back into the mod. Thanks for reminding me of what a Storage Bus is. My base is currently like 90% Storage Drawers, and while I'm using yer videos to upgrade to AE right now, I'm thinking of leaving a few around for "bulk" items like dirt and cobble.
Hey there thanks for such a plain English explanation of this mod, it's the best I've seen! I'll be using this knowledge in my next video... I'd love to see a comparison video of AE2 vs RS, which one do you use in your modded worlds? Cheers, RevivedGrain (new sub)
Why would I ever want an import bus when I could just move everything over with the terminal? Also those annihilation planes seem super useless too, I don't know anyone who would rather sit there dropping things out of their inventory as opposed to just once again right clicking the terminal and shift-clicking everything into your drives.
im trying to export items from my ME system in to a large storage crate in a different mod but its not working, its got an item in the filter but nothings going through. is there a specific pipe or a am i doing somthing wrong
What do u hook up to power energy cells instead of coal generator I’ve got melon farm for power, do I just use a flux point to transfer power plus my energy cell doesn’t light up so keep thinking it’s not powered.
If you want to use a flux point or another mod to power your ae system then you have to put it on a energy accepter first otherwise the vibration chamber is the only way to power it. i.e. if you use mekanism's cables then you use the universal cables connect those to the energy accepter first then use the ae2 cables to connect the rest of your system. alternatively you can connect the universal cable directly to your controller and power it that way but you lose access to a set of channels.
All cables should connect to the energy accepter block just fine. If not then you will have to find another way of converting EU to AE. Maybe you'll have to use a different mod to go from EU to RF then RF to AE. To be honest I'm surprised you are playing with a 1.19.2 version of Industrial Craft. I thought that lost development
Each side of 1 controller block is 32 channels so in theory you have 192 channels from 1 block. However you can multi block the controller by slapping more together. You can get thousands of channels with a large enough brain
12:06 the exporter and the importer don't work! I use the exporter and it IMPORTS the item instead of exporting them... and the importer EXPORTS the item instead of importing them. NOTHING WORKS! NOTHING GETS OUT AND NOTHING GETS I.... THE MOD CREATOR IS A CLOWN.
They do work as intended. The exporter takes things OUT of the ME system. The importer puts things IN the ME system. Don't get it confused with taking things in and out of a machine. Always look at it from the perspective of the ME system
@@Mondays3 the exporter to me imports the items... and the importer exports them. They don't work properly... when i used the exporter to export the items from a chest to the storage it did NOTHING. When i used the importer, it exported the items from the storage to the chest... wtf?!
@@Sir.BlackHole no that’s how it’s meant to work. You use an importer from a chest to the me system. You use a export to go from the me system to the chest. It’s working exactly how I explained
I understand where you are coming from and a lot of people get confused with the same thing. You always have to think about what you want the ME system to do. Not what you want to happen from the chest or machine
Hi, great video. I tried connecting the bus to the "entangled block with storage controller" but it didn't work. does it just go straight? (i try in StoneBlock 3)
Really good tutorial but you could szare the recipes translating Like cool you can show someone how it looks but I think its unnesessary to explain whats items are these Tales a lot of time and I think everyone uses JEI with tech packshot Even you So yea What you should Focus on is to explain which black does what That would be extra cool
I've been playing in and around modded minecraft for at least 10 years. You're one of the best guide makers I've seen. Great work
It helps also having 10 years experience. Thank you so much
This is the easiest to understand most comprehensive walkthrough on this mod on RUclips! Thank you so much!
I try to keep things simple. Glad this helped

So happy this helped! AE2 is very daunting for a lot of people

By the sounds of it you really don’t need these tutorials 🤣. You know more than me. Thank you for the tips!

Thank you for the step by step guides I personally needed them
So happy this helped
Also why does the AE2 setup in the thumbnail look kinda like symbol from the nice mustache guy?
Your tutorials should be behind the paywall! Cheers, mate!

If it’s your first time I’d say start with refined storage as it’s a little easier but so glad this helped you
9:00 You can place cable anchors between a cable and a block by right clicking on the side of the block / cable.
I can never get it work that way
@@Mondays3 it must be a difference in version or one of the add-ons i'm using all the mods 8
Very thorough and easy to understand!
Thank you so much!

so is it possible to filter more than 9 items on the export bus?? i need a filter over 30 items
I really hope more tech mods upgrade to 1.19.3 soon because I'm starving for them right now lol
I am also more of a tech person rather than a magic person
1.19.2 has a lot ported
@@Mondays3i used to be a magic person but now i enjoy tech more
I know the rf tools storage scanner can’t pull items directly out of a storage controller. The ae2 external storage can though, correct?
My man is trying to reroute inventories of the Third Reich
They just have to combine RS and AE2 and they will make good looking mod.
at 5:00 what energy u using to power it?
Why would I ever want an import bus when I could just move everything over with the terminal? Also those annihilation planes seem super useless too, I don't know anyone who would rather sit there dropping things out of their inventory as opposed to just once again right clicking the terminal and shift-clicking everything into your drives.
the only use i found so far for annihilation planes was to farm quartz. kinda agree on that.
this was so incredibly helpful
So happy this helped
I learned something new, thanks!
Very useful content and nice presentation. Thanks!
So glad this helped
im trying to export items from my ME system in to a large storage crate in a different mod but its not working, its got an item in the filter but nothings going through. is there a specific pipe or a am i doing somthing wrong
Check that the cable is powered and has a channel to it. Also make sure your export bus isn't set to blacklist
What do u hook up to power energy cells instead of coal generator I’ve got melon farm for power, do I just use a flux point to transfer power plus my energy cell doesn’t light up so keep thinking it’s not powered.

As Dragon said xD
Well said. Thanks for helping the community
@@Mondays3 Not a problem, thanks for making these tutorials.
Dude you have great videos but what is that horn that plays between scenes lol
how to use energy acceptor with industrial craft? i cand find anything in internet about this, i want to use ic2 enegry from solar panels to me chest
Use EU cables from the solar panel to the energy accepter then use fluix glass ME cables from the Energy accepter to the ME Chest
@@Mondays3 eu cables are not working to applied energistics, when i played last time on 1.7.10 there was different, now on 1.19.2 lot of new changes
@@PikBo100 so did you understand what he said or do you need further explanation?
@@tam_69420 read again what i said there)

So there is no way to have more than 32 channels in one ME-System?
With automisations this will not be not enough pretty fast, no?
Each side of 1 controller block is 32 channels so in theory you have 192 channels from 1 block. However you can multi block the controller by slapping more together. You can get thousands of channels with a large enough brain
cant wait for more!
Lucky that today a new tutorial is out!
Been checking your videos and cant find any way to craft AE2 Fluix dust vanilla with mod. Would love some input and suggestions if possible. thanks!
You just put fluix crystals in the inscriber
what are some tech modpacks with AE2 in it for 1.19.2?
Atm8
Tbh nearly all of them 🤣

does RS have block placers like AE2?
Yes it does. It’s in the RS in and out episode. It’s called the constructor
@@Mondays3 weird how i missed that, thanks!
dude idk why but the green light lights up and the terminal wont recognize it
What is the terminal linked too?
Hi, great video. I tried connecting the bus to the "entangled block with storage controller" but it didn't work. does it just go straight? (i try in StoneBlock 3)
oh, sry, its chanel problem :) my bad
Glad you figured it out!
Great video
Thank you
can wait to see if u cover wireless
Soooooon
Great job. Thank you.
Thank you!
The only thing I don't like about AE2 is the channel system.
dawg why is the thumbnail a swastika
this is pretty cool
Thank you
I think you accidentally made a swastika as the thumbnail with your wiring
The Hindu symbol for "Well-being"
Can i youse more dann 8 drives?
You can have a near infinite amount of drive provided you have the power and channels available
If your goal is to make me dizzy you succeeded, lol
200k AE = 400k RF
Really good tutorial but you could szare the recipes translating
Like cool you can show someone how it looks but I think its unnesessary to explain whats items are these
Tales a lot of time and I think everyone uses JEI with tech packshot
Even you
So yea
What you should Focus on is to explain which black does what
That would be extra cool
I agree. But we did a poll asking if we want to keep them in and most people said the recipes really help so I'm not going to stop xD

thanks but like ur thumbnail does kinda look like a nazi symbol
I can see it but I can very easily unsee it luckily lol
