It allows you to transmute blocks and items, allowing you to trade many low-value items for a few rarer ones, for example. You can only create items that your Tablet has already "seen", but once it has "learned" an item (unless you use an Alchemical Tome) it is remembered forever and you can create it at will, even if you no longer possess any of that item. At first, the interface may be confusing, but it is not hard to learn and become familiar with.
The Transmutation Tablet gives you much more control over the transmutation process compared to the Energy Condenser, and does not require you to already possess the item you desire, provided you have previously taught your Tablet that item. However, the Energy Condenser is much more suitable for transmuting massive quantities of items (e.g. unwanted mining waste) into a single type of item. However, you can craft an Alchemical Tome and place it in the burn slot of the Transmutation Tablet, which unlocks every item in the Transmutation Tablet, but it is the most EMC expensive item in Tekkit as it requires 2 fully charged Klein Star Omegas. The Transmutation Tablet also has an EMC value. It is useful if you are on a server so that you could use the Energy Condenser and make a ton of them.
If you cannot access Minecraft.net for any reason (for example, by starting the game in offline mode), you will not have access to your stored EMC or Recipes. All you need to do is change the name of the storage files found in your tekkit folder. Backup first before editing them in case you mess up.
value of that item is displayed, and previously-learned items of equivalent value or less will appear in the Output Matrix on the right. You may then remove items from the Output Matrix, consuming EMC in the process. Leftover EMC is stored for later use.
To teach the tablet a new item, place it in the input matrix. The word "Learned" will briefly appear between the matrices, and the tablet will remember how to make that item. To teach the tablet to produce every item, place an Alchemical Tome into the burn slot. The tome will be consumed. (Don't place the tome in any other slot as it may be consumed without teaching the tablet anything; a tremendous waste!)
Multiple items can be placed separately in the Input Matrix in order to use their combined EMC. If you place a stack of items in the Input Matrix, then only the EMC of one item from the stack will be shown or considered for transmutation. For example, if you want to turn 4 rubies and 4 sapphires into 1 diamond, you can't place them into the input matrix as 2 stacks, you have to place gems in all 8 slots of the input matrix (or burn them). If, however, you want to turn 4 sapphires into 4 rubies, you can place the sapphires as a stack and pick out the rubies one after another.
You may place an item in the centre of the Output Matrix in order to target that item. This will cause the Output Matrix to display only items that have an EMC value equal or less than the target, with the targeted item itself showing up at the top. Use this if your Tablet is not showing the item that you desire.
EMC left behind is stored in a Transmutation Tablet when you close it, and will be there the next time you open it. Items, however, will be ejected if not removed before closing the Tablet. All of your Tablets share the same EMC storage, so your EMC will be there even if you use a different Tablet. In multiplayer, using someone else's Tablet will still bring up your Tablet interface, not theirs.
The Transmutation Tablet will lock itself into either Matter or Fuel mode depending on the item placed into the Input Matrix. It will not allow you to transmute Fuel into Matter, or Matter into Fuel. In order to unlock it, you will need to remove all EMC from the Tablet by charging a Klein Star or perhaps by removing items.
You can use a Klein Star to unlock it if the star has enough free capacity to contain all the EMC from the tablet. Put it in the left side. When all EMC is transferred to the star, remove it, and the tablet will be unlocked. Put the star back in to use that EMC in either mode.
For instance, put an Aeternalis Fuel in the burn slot and the Tablet will be charged with 8192 EMC. Put a Klein Star on the left side of the tablet and that 8192 EMC will be transferred to the Klein Star. Take the Klein Star out and put it back to unlock the tablet and use that 8192 EMC to make a Diamond.
You may also be able to unlock it by removing items from the Output Matrix until the EMC readout shows 0. If it's in matter mode, it's possible because there are matter-type things with only 1 EMC, such as cobblestone. In fuel mode you may be stuck with an odd amount you can't clear because the EMC values of all fuels are multiples of 32.
The Tablet can be upgraded to a "portable" version, where one can select the Tablet in the inventory and either right-click or press the Extra Function key (Default C) to open the Transmutation Tablet interface.
Also, pressing the "Release Charge" key (Default R), you will fire a projectile. If this projectile hits a mob, the mob will randomly morph into another mob of the same type. Nether mobs will change into another nether mob, animals will turn into another animal, and overworld enemies will turn into another overworld enemy. Combine this function with eggs to create farms of any animal. The transmutation requires Fuel (Gunpowder, etc.).
Don't put Solar Panels, Sapphire Blocks, Nikolite or Obsidian Pipes into the Tablet, as they will disappear, without giving anything in return. In short, be careful putting anything into the Tablet not listed below, you've been warned. Some items that are unrecognized by the Tablet will be harmlessly put on the floor and you'll suck them back up into your inventory. However, if the item is to disappear, it can usually be found by digging under the Tablet for a while.
If you play multiplayer on a server that has the plugin Multiverse then there is a bug where the tablet/table will not work properly, This can be fixed by simply going to the nether and using your tablet/table.
There is a duplication glitch that can occur with a standard Transmutation Tablet if you are experiencing lag. When an item is put into the Input Matrix and taken out quickly (i.e. by shift clicking), the EMC value and the items in the Output Matrix still remain. If the operation is completed quickly enough, clicking on an item in the Output Matrix that is lower than the EMC value of the item put in will store the EMC value of the item put in and removed minus the EMC of the removed item. Similarly, when an item of the same EMC value is taken out while the EMC is displaying, you get both the original item(s) and the item out. Note: This does not work if you place the item in the burn slot, since you cannot get it back!
There is a vanishing EMC glitch that occurs when any EMC (any amount) is stored within the Transmutation Tablet (as in not being completely used to equal zero). A simple fix would be breaking the Transmutation Tablet and replacing (This will not effect the EMC or Alchemical Tome upgrade). Another solution would be burning any item with EMC, but this can cause some items not to appear on the left side.
Ok so our transmutation tablet seems to be bugged on our tekkit bukkit server and it will not let us learn some things like coal, charcoal, blaze rods, and other random things it decides to glitch out on. If someone has learned a ton of stuff on their tablet I would greatly appreciate it if you could share your tablet file with me so I can put it on our server so our tablets work correctly.
if someone could upload one for me somewhere I would be so appreciative! If you run a server that has fully working tablet you can find the file in the main server world in the data folder as well, there will be a tablet file for each person on the server who uses one so you would take the persons that learned the most stuff on it.
Make sure that the transmutation lock at the top if the tablet is set to No Lock. If it says matter, it won't let you learn fuel items, and if it says fuel, it won't let you learn matter. To remove the lock, remove all the emc from the tablet.
This is why most people who use EE a lot hate transmutation tables, and instead use condensers (which allow fuel -> matter and matter -> fuel) + a chest with one or two of each item, as essentially EE work stations, instead.
Also, there's rarely any reason for you to need to share your transmutation tablet files. If you want to just fill in stuff without having actually found it, just use an alchemical tome (legit or cheat one in), and it will unlock the recipe for every single item with an EMC value on your transmutation tablet. That still won't solve the problem listed in the OP, because even when they're all unlocked, there is still a rule about matter/matter and fuel/fuel. But just a side comment.
Yeah I just finally figured this out, I thought it was bugged but realized its the locking of fuel or matter.. derp, I used that tome thing and now the tablet has everything and is working great now that I understand it more.. Sorry for the stupid question, I'm still new to EE, been playing IC2 RP2 and BC for a long time but never tried EE cause it seemed pretty cheap/cheaterish to me but now that I've actually tried it, it's quite fun :D
Hey guys! Somehow I managed to end up with 24 EMC in my transmutation tablet while in FUEL mode. Since all the fuels are multiples of 32 EMC I cannot get the EMC back to zero and therefore I am not able to swap to MATTER mode. Which is kinda annoying.
Description of Problem: On my friend's server specifically, the transmutation tables in the EE mod (both the block and the item) do not seem to work with ANY of my items. It was not there all the time, and I'm not sure why it's happening, but whenever I try putting something like torches or red matter (or anything for that matter) into the machine, it dumps them somewhere nearby. I've made sure they're not like BuildCraft items which are incompatible. These items are things like dirt, things which've been working before. I haven't checked if the problem persists on any other servers, but Tekkit single-player seems to handle the tablets fine. I've also gone to the step of deleting my .dat file from the server, but the problem did not fix itself. Finally, Google did not help. And you know what happens if Google can't help you.
