What's new in modded minecraft today?
- Thread starter Yusunoha
- Start date
It's showing the latest version of Tinkers Construct as 1.5.5.4 with the same changelog as the 1.5.5.3 version posted above.
So, Greg is apparently finally making his move away from IC2 and towards being a standalone mod. He has stated that he has made his own version of the E-Net specifically for Gregtech, and has been showing off quite a bit of the new stuff he's been making:
(Spoiler'd because images)
(I really hope those are developer art textures, they're just so... UGH!)
He's also making quite a few other significent changes; He's doing away with the traditional "make an upgrade item out of some circuits and put in a machine and HAYO!! OVER9000CLOCKER!!1" Instead, he will be adding various tiers of every machine, which will accept higher and higher voltages and thus allow them to run faster and faster, though also less and less efficiently.
Also, he has been making a lot of references to the Stargate series, and seems to intend on making his future-planned stargates based on that. He even added Zero-Point Modules as a rare bit of loot from jungle temples a few versions back, though he's apparently changing where they spawn in 1.7

Considering the quality of the rest of his textures, I'm not sure it really matters.
Personally, I like his textures. They may not be Thaumcraft-level OMGSOPRETTY, but they fit together quite nicely, and convey what they're supposed to. Besides, his mod isn't really intended to be pretty.
Point made, but Ic2 till needs it's textures to look nicer. I mean even buildcraft is doing it. Everything doesn't need to be Thaumcraft/Botania level, but please don't hurt my eyes. Blood Magic does a nice job of this. Simple, yet not painful to look at.
Well, there's only so much you can do with 16x16 textures on a cube...
I suppose I might take a stab at giving Greg some better textures once he updates and I know what I'll be dealing with.
but anyway, that snide little comment I made was supposed to be the most minor part of that post.
Standalone Gregtech!

Standalone Gregtech!Great maybe this will encourage IC2 to revert back there "ballanceing". Though I use the term with great jest.
Gregs art skills are known to be rather.... bad.
His machines are fine and all because they are simple. Then you come to the big boys of steam blast furnace and cables and oh boy....
@sirusking help him please :c

Many people, myself included, enjoy the changes they have been making.
Also, if this is refering to the incomplete features such as the E-Net changes, remember that this is an experimental build. Specifically the E-net changes were basically just them testing things for a future rewrite, which will apparently still allow infinite packets through a cable, but at increasing energy loss per packet.
That's what I heard, anyway.
This would upset everyone that likes the new IC2 and would revert half a year's work.
For those who have ever been to Atomic Stryker's website before it has had a pretty new facelift: Link
If you go to the license page you will also see that all his mods are now open source. He hasn't changed his strict licensing however. Another thing is that he has set up a Patreon, but that might have been out for a while and I didn't see it

You enjoy it requiring twice the amount of steps or more to make even a electric furnace as it douse any other mod? And that if you make any mistake it blows up on you and you have to start over againe? There is a reason it's in a fraction of the packs it used to be in.
It was supposedly balanced for difficulty and challenge. So why is it not in any of the hard mode packs?
In fact the only packs it's in are the super general and throw any teck mod in packs.
Face it as fare as pack makers and most players are concerned Ender IO is the new IC2. Fast effective powerful and well balanced. With out taking a week to set up a system that is half as effective as most others Like IC2.

Seriously thanks for sharing these news. I dont have time to read 10pages per day of gregs topic so this is very useful "summary". (i hope thats the right word for it)
Also, this isn't particularly mod news, but I thought I'd let everyone know that Guswut (who vanished sometimes last year), has reappeared on the minecraft forums. Link
Just thought people who remembered his awesomeness back in the day would be interested to know that he is still living.
I guess I should post some other kind of news so have some changelogs:
Magic Farm 2.1.9
Direwolf20 1.0.21
Blood N Bones 1.0.6
Blood N Bones 1.0.7
Agrarian Skies 2.0.3
Agrarian Skies 2.1.1

I was wondering what had happened to him, unfortunately that post is a month old. Hope he decides to join us again someday on the forums, he was a cool dudeAlso, this isn't particularly mod news, but I thought I'd let everyone know that Guswut (who vanished sometimes last year), has reappeared on the minecraft forums.
