    A crazy idea...

    I have never seen Magic Crops, even in huge quantities and boosted, outpace a full-power quarry or MFR drill without Time Torches. This would be even more true if they didn't create a second seed. And believe me, it's not like I haven't seen people try.

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    See, to me, that looks like crap. Which I why I've never been able to take the IMPROVE THE TERRAIN GUISE movement seriously.

    Botania - An innovative natural magic themed tech mod (Not in beta any more!)

    In 1.7, Azanor made a mod called Baubles. Basically, you get (much like TiC) 4 extra slots that you put accessories in (for TC4, runic protection and discount items). Botania also adds Baubles, but they're incredible: fire protection, swimming boost, Boots/Traveler-style boost, etc. And since...

    Botania - An innovative natural magic themed tech mod (Not in beta any more!)

    You guys forgot the ungodly strong Baubles. Free FireRes and Boots of the Traveler under any armor? YES PLEASE It is the ultimate early-game and utility magic mod.

    Mods definitions and usefulness

    Outside of a few mods they usually can. Things like RC are obviously harder to classify, though.

    What's new in modded minecraft today?

    I personally haven't found EnderIO useful early/mid game at all compared to every other major tech mod. Don't get me wrong, it's a great mod, but more of a lategame thing when you have the resources to burn on the top-tier stuff and need that extra compactness.

    What's new in modded minecraft today?

    I count a major tech mod by a few main features: 1. Can it retain most of its usefulness standalone? 2. Can it process ores and smelt? 3. Can it be used as a backbone for a player's infrastructure throughout the game? Using my personal standards (which are of course my opinion), none of those...

    Mod Pros-Cons Debate Thread

    My big thing with Forestry farms was that they used multiple non-renewable resources in addition to power to automate a process that is completely renewable with every other farming method, including TC golems and VANILLA. You were just throwing resources down the drain.

    Mod Pros-Cons Debate Thread

    Agreed. While saying something is "OP" is technically meaningless, people here have to understand that generally the person asking is, unless otherwise stated, referring to how the mod stands compared to the balance of packs such as Monster, DW20 and Resonant Rise. In which case Dartcraft is...

    Mod Pros-Cons Debate Thread

    IMO, IC2 needs to just die. I've expressed in other threads why I dislike it now (in short, absolute failure to add anything meaningful while still causing major bugs), but watching it wither away like this is painful. Mek and TE are probably my favorite tech mods atm. TE is TE ('nuff said)...

    A crazy idea...

    1. You know, there is the config that makes it impossible to automate Sieves that RR uses. Hammering can still be automatic, but you could disable auto-sieving to eliminate the snowball entirely, or just significantly downgrade the results. I wish we could make ore spawn in AM2's Moo Moo Farm...

    Wow, New Titles!!!

    "Well-Known" is still pretty easy to get, and there's nothing new up to a least 700 posts from what I can tell. :/

    It's not even a new energy system, it's just a knockoff of BC lasers that run on RF.
