    FTB and Forge - Curse Partnership.

    The primary result I'm expecting from this is that the future launcher will have ads on it. Yuk.

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    If by "bad" you mean "evil", yes it is, and yes I do. :)

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    I wonder if cicadas will ever be included as a microblock, so you can put a cover over them and have them INSIDE the walls.

    Is there still a hope for redpower2?

    I think the reason so many people are frustrated by it is the same reason so many people were frustrated by the time it was taking to get 1.6 FTB packs. People were told that development was happening (Eloraam on 2/19: "Back on RP full time now") but were given nothing to show for it. A couple...

    Opinions on Dartcraft

    Yes, there are unexpected combinations that cause problems, but in general through a combination of mod authors tweaking their pack to not interact poorly with other packs (see: KL's suggestion that the ForceWrench be a whitelist based item) to pack creators tweaking configs to make things work...

    Opinions on Dartcraft

    It's somewhat of a given, though, that since this discussion is taking place on FTB forums, other mods will be installed. If a mod is unbalanced when it's put in play with other mods, then that's basically saying that it's not suitable for a mod pack.

    I Shall Build Cities of Bronze

    It's not a bug, it's a config setting. Nobody's going to mind if you "exploit" it because you set it that way.

    Upcoming Mod Packs

    Well right off the bat I would guess it's because those packs have mods that do not go with GregTech, and they felt that the intention of the packs line up better with those other mods than they do with GregTech. When vanilla recipes get changed in the name of balance, then it gets a strong...

    Why no new launcher.

    Yes and no. FTB has already put out a launcher that is easier for 1.5.2 packs and earlier, but to say that the 1.6.4 launcher "just hasn't been released yet" is wrong. Saying that means there's a completely functional launcher that is in use internally, and the posts from the devs have said...

    Why no new launcher.

    I'm just wondering which will come out first - the new launcher, or the RedPower2 update.

    Challenge, Reward, and the ratio between them

    Bookshelves will regenerate a single point of a single aspect for you. It appears to be random. I have my enchanting area near to my research table so that gave many bonus points. Also, crystal clusters will regenerate the primal aspects, so that way you know what ones you'll be getting. The...

    Challenge, Reward, and the ratio between them

    I think my biggest annoyance with TC4 is how so much of the research is brushed off as "oh it should be rather intuitive" when so much of it is not. Golem Core: Harvest for example doesn't use the Harvest aspect. Sword of the Zephyr doesn't use Weapon aspect. With how hard it is to gather...

    FTB Mod Updates to 1.7.2!

    This thread hasn't been, though, which is why the topic says 1.6.2 when the version should be 1.6.4.

    Oh how hyped I am... (Another 1.6.4 thread)

    I'm not sure how much of the features it's covered, but you can pretty much bet that even if all the features are covered, it's going to be a ton of work to try to convert a 1.4.x world over to 1.6.x. You'd have to dig really deep in to converting existing data structures within the blocks and...

    FTB Mod Updates to 1.7.2!

    It's not so much a discussion of Redpower2 as it's a debate on whether or not the Dev classification is justified. Apparently it's listed as Dev because there was a "big announcement" that Eloraam was hoping to make, but let's be honest, there's no mention of 1.6 in the twitter feed, and the...

    Pipe detecting?

    If you have all your coal in a chest, why not have that chest be right next to the coke oven? Then just put a hopper feeding items from the chest into the coke oven. It'll never overflow as long as there's room in the chest (or you could even replace the chest with a barrel if you're concerned...
