Also, I am pretty sure somehow greg is breaking the stone button recipe. I can't prove it yet, but it's the common factor in a lot of modpacks where you cannot craft stone buttons.
Well, isn't it a problem with all versions after 1.4.2, where recipe changed from 2 stone on top of each other to 1 stone? I'm using GT 3.0.4c (current a couple of days ago) and a lot of other mods and I can craft stone button without any problems.
 
GREGTECH IS SO BAD OH MY LORD I LITERALLY HAVE TO SHOUT ABOUT HOW FUCKING NERFING IT IS AND ITS TOTALLY NOT CONFIGURABLE AND YEAH I HAVE TO SHOUT AND MAKE POINTLESS THREADS. NO WAY SHOULD I ASK TO UNDERSTAND THE MILDLY CONFUSING CONFIG. NOPE THATS STUPID .

I held Shift down for that, r u happy?

Someone is breaking it. I am not sure who. I thought maybe it was underground biomes but I disabled its stone recipe injection and it didn't go away.
 
Meh. I'm over Gregtech. I'll give someone all of my bauxite for a dragon hat and a bag of barley seeds

Greg is doing some interesting stuff tho. His new fusion reactor system, I kinda like it. What I don't like is he carries on in the IC2 failure tradition of "power generation is more profitable by replicating small solutions rather than building bigger solutions." It's much more profitable even in GT to make a ton of wooden planks and basic generators than to build a better, larger system. That's a really big design flaw that he inherited from IC2 and could correct, but chooses no t to.

It's also super weird to be powering a GT machine shed off of my UE power room, btw.

The one thing I can't figure out is the ore unification configs. It took me 1 day of messing with them to get the results I wanted before the latest update. And now that Greg changed something in the configs ("made it simpler to read" as it's written in changelogs), whatever I do I can't make it work. What I'm trying to achieve is to force every machine to output the same ingot id. Now I keep getting two or more different ingot Ids of copper/tin/silver and so forth. This results in clutter inside chests which, for me is unacceptable. It pisses me off so much I find minecraft unplayable :(

This thread helped me fix it back then, but now this doesn't work

Weird? Or awesome? I'm thinking its more the latter.

You also make a good point. Even in my Mindcrack world I powered my matter fab fairly decently with a few windmill arrays and lots of thermal gens. Had there been a mid level method of power (outside of nukes) I'd have gone for it. The search for chrome also proved frustrating for fusion. There are 1 or 2 things I'd like to do with GT, but in general I tend to not want to head down his path until I'm neck deep in resources ;)
 
I'd like you to rephrase that sentence. Please.
Why lol? Did I offend somehow? That's not racist it's true lol. Ask him he'll tell you.
As you may know in the Beta FTB packs things like Interdimensionalstorageunit weren't space out...That's proof of what I just said.
