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
- ABS: alloy blast smelter, a GT++ multiblock that can smelt materials directly into liquids.
- AE / AE2: Applied Energistics, a logistics mod capable of executing on-demand autocrafting. Available from EV onwards
- A2: GT++ - a multiblock mod scheduled to be replaced
- ARR: All rights reserved. A mod license that prevents others from changing or fixing it.
- Assline: Assembly 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
- EU/T: energy units per tick
- EV: extreme voltage, T4 in the questbook
- EIO: EnderIO, a mod with numerous utility functions.
F
- FE: fluid extractor. Converts materials into their liquid forms. Hot liquid may be produced, handle with care!
- FS: fluid solidifier. Converts liquids into their solid forms, usually requires a suitable mold or programmed circuit.
G
- GTNH: Gregtech New Horizons. Really, you should already know this one.
H
- HBM: horrible bad mod. Won’t be added.
- HOG: high-octane gasoline, the most energy dense combustion engine fuel.
- HP: high pressure, usually used in the context of a large HP steam turbine or HP steam machines.
- HV: high voltage, T3 in the questbook
I
- IC / IC2: Industrial Craft 2
- IV: insane voltage, T5 in the questbook
J
- JEI: Just Enough Items
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.
- LESU: Lapotronic Energy Storage Unit. Some say don’t build it.
- LGT: large gas turbine. HV-tier multiblock generator running off gas-turbine fuels
- LHE: large heat exchanger. EV-tier multiblock machine capable of making steam or SH steam in ludicrous amounts when adequately supplied with either lava or hot coolant.
- LSC: lapotronic super capacitor. The alternative to the PSS for very large centralized power storage.
- LuV: ludicrous voltage, T6 in the questbook
- LV: low voltage, T1 in the questbook
- LDP: Long distance pipeline, can come in two variations listed below.
- LDFP: Long distance fluid pipeline, fluid transfer option that allows for long distance fluid transfer while only requiring chunkloading of the start and end. Only one input and one output.
- LDIP: Long distance item pipeline, item transfer option that allows for long distance item transfer while only requiring chunkloading of the start and end. Only one input and one output.
M
- MAX: Maximum voltage, T15, highest voltage tier
- MBM: multiblock miner. Can either refer to the ODPs or to the Void Miners, but more commonly the latter.
- MEBF: mega electric blast furnace, a massively upsized version of the Electric Blast Furnace that can run up to 256 recipes in parallel.
- MVF: mega vacuum freezer, a massively upsized version of the Vacuum Freezer.
- MDT: mega distillation tower, a massively upsized version of the Distillation Tower.
- MV: medium voltage, T2 in the questbook
N
- NEI: Not Enough Items
O
- OC: Overclocking or OpenComputers, depending on the context
- ODP: ore drilling plant. Comes in 4 tiers and available from EV onwards. Automatically crushes the mined ores.
- OpV: Overpowered voltage, T14, second highest voltage tier
- Ori: Oriharukon, an IV-tier material found on Phobos used mainly for tools and turbines.
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. Also known as poly
- Platline: Platinum processing line, a long series of processing steps (and therefore, machines) needed to extract all the platinum-group metals from PMPD.
- PLE: precision laser engraver. Essential machine for circuit crafting
- PMPD: platinum metallic powder dust, the starting material for the platinum processing line
- PPS: polyphenylene sulfide. Mid-tier plastic needed to cheaply coat high-tier cables.
- PSS: power sub-station, a GT++ multiblock providing very large centralized power storage.
- PTFE: polytetrafluoroethylene, aka: teflon. Mid-tier plastic.
- PVC: polyvinylchloride. Mid-tier plastic.
Q
R
- RC: RailCraft, a mod that adds rail-related stuff. The most important part from this mod is the iron/steel multiblock tanks.
S
- SBDR: styrene-butadiene rubber. Plastic needed to coat cables at higher tiers. Not the best choice but relatively cheap.
- SFM: Steve’s factory manager
- SH steam: superheated steam. Created with a LHE and converted into regular steam and power using a large HP steam turbine multiblock and an appropriate turbine item.
- 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.
- TF: twilight forest, an alternate dimension and one of the first dimensions players can access
- TiC / TiCon: Tinker's Construct, mainly used for the tools and various materials.
