I too am having difficulty finding quartz in my new test world!
I'm thinking of a way to help debug these issues, unfortunately I'm not sure where to go with it, I've tested world gen considerably, with no mods, and with a ton of mods, and I didn't have any issues its not so uncommon, I usually found it by running thought caves, after at about 15-20 min I would have about half a stack of it..
Hopefully I'll have something of a plan when I have free time this evening.
In the mean time, if your having problems with this and have time, please try generating a new world or two in creative and running around seeing if you can find any and let me know your out comes.
Just for reference here is what i looks like presently in world,
Suddenly I have maybe a theory! Could it be because I changed the id for quartz? It was having an id conflict with metallurgy. I don't know if this will help you narrow down the problem, but I hope it will.

Not sure, I'll have to give it a try and see if that causes any issues, I wouldn't think so, but anything is possible bug wise.
I don't think i'm going to go any further with the colored cables, unless someone can give me a reason why, I've provided a nice amount, and I can't see someone having that many different networks right next to each other. It would be incredibly hard to distinguish the cables without making the colors more 'plain' in any case, I liked the florescent / shiny look, it wasn't as bland and there are plenty of options.
Don't take this is a challenge or anything
It was just a suggestion in-case you were going to
first off, Algorithm you are the man.. your mod is EXACTLY what I have been thinking I wanted so props on that
secondly.. I have yet to find a single piece of quarts.. the Ore isn't even showing in NEI or Creative, the crystals and dust is showing up

The ore doesn't show up, its not technically place-able by hand, so I didn't bother showing it in the creative/nei, might change this in the next build, It took a number of changes and stuff to get the setup I wanted and in the end while the ore should be place-able by it self not it wasn't at the time, so I just left it that way.
I'm looking into the issue with the world gen now.
Edit:
Looks like I can confirm that there is definitely an issue, I'm not seeing any either now.
It isnt placeable or lootable? Not even with silk touch? Does fortune get bonus on it? Also: I'm still super excited about this and cant wait for at least this part to be ready. Do you anticipate much additional future world gen?

its not placeable, ( nor are crystals ) the ore is simply a block to mine to get the crystals / dust ) you can mine it and it drops crystals / dust. At the moment fortune does not give it a bonus but I might add that, maybe before I release Build C to fix this ( if its easy - I want to get this fixed ASAP )
I don't have plans for any other world gen, at this point. ( if I did I would have added them all at once. )
1. Fixed missing Quartz Ore
2. Fixed issues where AppEng Blocks did not respond to other mods tools and blocks correctly.
3. Fixed Creative Mode Block Destruction.
4. Added Option for auto-searching in terminal
5. Quartz Ore now functions with Fortune Enchants
6. Added Update Checker. ( you can disable it in the config if you want too. )
7. Completely Re-did Block Drops Code.
8. Quartz Ore is now visible in Creative / NEI.
9. Quartz Ore is now place-able. ( from NEI / Creative )
you have to mine it tho....
Sorry for the delay, found a massive issue that i had to fix with the drops code.
This is awesome! I love the idea and the way it work!
If I may dare to offer feature ideas: protection of the network would be interesting. Restricting access to the network somehow, passwords or something. It might be interesting.

Thanks, I'll add it to my list of possible features.
I've relocated the excessive content from the OP, to a new wiki, so I can try and create a more organized manageable source of info on the mod and how it works, hopefully this will help everyone some. I'll try to get some more information on how to use ME in there tomorrow, but for now i'm out of time.
Two things: I have a ton of mods installed on my Minecraft, including Applied Energetics, IndustrialCraft 2 and more. After installing AE, IC2 disappeared from my creative menu, but is still there. I don't know if it's a problem with AE or IC2, but I thought I'd propose it.
Also, powergrid wise, there also is Universal Electricity, I don't know if you considered it, but it's getting pretty big and it'd be interesting to use it along IC2 and BC.

I don't think its AE, I've got tons stuff with like 3/4 pages of creative tabs and I don't think I've got any issues with any of them, it could be something other than IC2 tho, cause I don't have any issues with it..

I've personally never tried UE, maybe after I give it a go I'll consider it, for power its difficult to think of how things integrate without having tried the mod personally.
I'v tried IC2 BC and UE and BC is by far the best power grid iv played with.For one main reason is that BC combined with APS gives you more power then alot of the IC2 nuclear reactors (and easier to maintain) also UE's atomic science their fission generator is more like a toy tonka truck then a generator.The idea behind UE is great but theres alot that needs to be improved upon as for BC energy it is easy to maintain and get to function specially along side TE which adds a battery for holding MJ.No offense to you or the modder of UE but in my opinion it is a broken source of power.It works well when trying to power ICBM but as for factories i do not see the relevence in using it.

can you make it so that the search field on the Access terminals (the block and Item) isn't automatically active?
I actually depend on that feature... Makes it faster, Maybe I'll add a config option for users to disable this.

Thank you for the quick action.
Future development is expected.
