Being an exceptionally technology and magic-heavy modpack, GTNH comes with a large variety of items and materials with long names that earn themselves various acronyms and nicknames, especially on the Discord server.

This is intended to be a non-comprehensive list of known acronyms and nicknames for various things in the modpack.

Please help to add new acronyms as they come into common use.


A

  • AE / AE2: Applied Energistics, a logistics mod capable of executing on-demand autocrafting. Available from EV onwards
  • Assline: Ass(embly) Line, the multiblock machine that gates progress from IV into LuV.

B

  • BBF: bricked blast furnace, the starter-tier multiblock needed to smelt your first steel.
  • BC: Buildcraft (e.g. bc tank = buildcraft tank)

C

  • CAL: circuit assembly line. LuV-tier multiblock machine needed to craft very high-tier circuits efficiently.
  • CBD: cetane-boosted diesel. 2nd highest energy density of the combustion engine fuels and a T1-T2 rocket fuel.

D

  • DT: distillation tower. HV multiblock for processing oil and other fluids

E

  • EBF: electric blast furnace. Essential multiblock machine needed for smelting of materials
  • EV: extreme voltage, T4 in the questbook

F

G

H

  • HBM: horrible bad mod. Won’t be added.
  • HOG: high-octane gasoline, the most energy dense combustion engine fuel.
  • HV: high voltage, T3 in the questbook

I

  • IC / IC2: Industrial Craft 2
  • IV: insane voltage, T5 in the questbook

J

K

L

  • LCE: large combustion engine. EV-tier multiblock generator running off combustible fuels.
  • LCR: large chemical reactor. Multiblock machine capable of running chemical reactor recipes without fluid cells.
  • LGT: large gas turbine. HV-tier multiblock generator running off gas-turbine fuels
  • LuV: ludicrous voltage, T6 in the questbook
  • LV: low voltage, T1 in the questbook

M

  • MAX: Maximum voltage, T15, highest voltage tier
  • MV: medium voltage, T2 in the questbook

N

  • NEI: Not Enough Items

O

  • OC: Overclocking or OpenComputers, depending on the context
  • OpV: Overpowered voltage, T14, second highest voltage tier

P

  • PA: processing array. Multiblock machine capable of running up to 64 identical single-block machines as if placed in the world
  • PBI: polybenzimidazole. High-tier plastic.
  • PE: polyethylene. Low-tier plastic.
  • Platline: Platinum processing line, a long series of processing steps (and therefore, machines) needed to extract all the platinum-group metals from PMPD.
  • PMPD: platinum metallic powder dust, the starting material for the platinum processing line
  • PTFE: polytetrafluoroethylene, aka: teflon. Mid-tier plastic.
  • PVC: polyvinylchloride. Mid-tier plastic.

Q

R

S

  • SBDR: styrene-butadiene rubber. Plastic needed to coat cables at higher tiers. Not the best choice but relatively cheap.
  • SR: silicone rubber. Plastic needed to coat cables at higher tiers. A better choice for cable coating.

T

  • TC: Thaumcraft (magic mod) or Tinker’s Construct - usually the first unless directly referring to tools or the smeltry.
  • TiC / TiCon: Tinker's Construct

U

  • UV: ultimate voltage. T8 in the questbook. Not actually the highest voltage tier, however.
  • UEV: Extremely Ultimate voltage, T10
  • UHV: Highly Ultimate voltage, T9 in the questbook.
  • UIV: Insanely Ultimate voltage, T11. From this point onwards, more and more items don't have recipes.
  • ULV: Ultra Low voltage, lowest voltage tier. Not a proper voltage tier (does not overclock to LV).
  • UMV: Mega Ultimate voltage, T12
  • UXV: Extended Mega Ultimate voltage, T13

V

W

X

Y

Z

  • ZPM: zero-point module voltage, T7 in the questbook
