    What one addition or change would you make in the 1.6 FTB content?

    redstone in motion is a mod that adds frames with far superior features than RP2 ever had. Other mods have covered pretty much all other areas of RP2.

    Exact same right that is given him to write a mod in the first place. Basically no one can dictate what any modder does or doesn't do. The incompatible versions existed as downloads for less than 20 hours. You are basically saying that buffing things is good, nerfing is bad and no one should...

    The Future of FTB Modpacks.

    If TiC is installed whatever is set in its config will be what is in game. It doesn't matter what settings are used in GT configs.

    Again difference is greg does respect the configs other mods has, even forestry bronze one. mDiyo does not do that and he broke the way gregs config for toggling the wood nerf works. They already are. Re-enabling exploits are not. Who said 1=4 is perfectly balanced? Pretty much every single...

    The Future of FTB Modpacks.

    I'm sure modpack authors just love to have two conflicting configs changing the same thing and having to specifically know what conf will be the one that actually works in the end now that mDiyo has added back the un-nerf.

    Item ID conflict check has been there forever. If you only knew how many people come to GT thread to whine about how some mod has added hardmode recipes to it :) What things are configurable is decided by greg, what conf gets distributed by any modpack is decided by whoever makes the modpack. No...

    Mostly for convenience sake. It also helps to make writing the mod easier if you can share the basic way how UI works between several machines. Of course there are some machines where both input/output slots do get used for crafting things. He was hinting at a mod making it impossible for the...

    The reason is they worked too well. I merely brought examples where a long held common knowledge was changed basically by thinking about it long enough. I'm almost certain that won't happen in vanilla-MC any time soon, though, but I wouldn't be surprised if other mods follow suite for...

    As I've said several times greg is trying to change exactly this core gameplay.

    Because vanilla itself is badly balanced. Crash was not because he so much wanted the nerf but because mDyio made gregs configuration option for turning the nerf off not work at all.

    Greg and CB actually seem to be in a quite good relationship often pointing out bugs in each other's mods. As for that thing in particular you can see this "I use pure vanilla Code (and pure IC² Code for the electric Stuff) to make my Tools. Nothing in my Container Item Code is "special", what...

    Part of the code in question is here: http://forum.industrial-craft.net/index.php?page=Thread&postID=120526&highlight=tconstruct#post120526 Unfortunately I have no idea what other code was there in addition to that. This was added AFTER tconstruct added the wood un-nerf. It DID NOT exist when...

    The Future of FTB Modpacks.

    except in cases where mod author states otherwise as has been seen in past.

    Well, in that case you have been reading some wrong information. Care to link it so we could see who was the originator for that?

    Greg Tech opinion discussions go here

    Unfortunately this is true. Even fixing bugs in other mods is considered a major offense in MC community and modders themselves are actively working against this. Sure, that'll work just awesomely in a public server! A fix that wasn't even needed due to there being an easy configuration to...

    fun fact: these were added by gregs suggestion and full cooperation like many other modders he is doing it for himself. As long as he doesn't get bored of ot the mod will live not caring about who plays it

    About difficulty/tedium and the terms we use (GT and similar)

    Having a single team do decisons leads to having something that pleases only a relatively tiny group of people. Far better would be to have several competing things trying to achieve the same end result. I'd actually even dare say that GT becoming popular was the main thing that pushed some...

    Greg Tech opinion discussions go here

    Untli relatively recently only way to fix the exploit was to disable storage block smelting on GT side. Luckily mDyio did added a config option on his side as well later down the line and after lots of drama. Do you know that GT has code in it that will cause the game to crash whenever some mod...

    About difficulty/tedium and the terms we use (GT and similar)

    By "sensible" I meant that the mods should roughly follow comparable progression path. E.g macerator should probably be a tiny bit easier to get than pulverizer or rock crusher as the last two give you extra output. If one were to use the mods (GT, TE & RC) at their default settings pulverizer...

    It wasn't too different from what was going here, though after alblaka as good as abandoned IC2 moderating there has been somewhat worse.
