## End Standard ##

##Start requires work##
With a bit of effort and a bit of creativity a lot can be reach by using MineTweaker, ModTweaker and Tabula Rasa/Custom Items or Quadrum. Note that is requires you to write and edit configs for custom recipes and blocks. (Its not that bad)

##End requires work##

so if you can think of any mod that allows resource generation even if it is just a few, please list them here.

MFR - Ore from the void
Oreganics - like Magical crops but only vanilla ores that I can tell

 

[ewsmith]

ic2 crops + gregtech
you can get most of the metals as well as redstone and rubber that way

 

[MarkesOrelies]

Two questions for you related to ic2 crops + gretech:
1: do you have to have gregtech with it, or is it there just to help balance things out.
2: how customizable is the configs in ic2 for the crops and there end results.

 

[tedyhere]

Greg tech totally re-does IC2 Crops in 1.7. It expands and makes sense of a totally senseless system that relies on random chance.

 

[jordsta95]

Well there is:
TreeOres and GrowableOres

Ore you could use TiCon and ore berry bushes, and minetweaker the oreberries to make an ingot, not a nugget

 

[LivingAngryCheese]

Botania

 

[Celestialphoenix]

UUM [ic2/gt]
Thaumcraft transmutation.
Mob grinder [recycle dropped armour/weapons into raw metals]

Edit- equivalency [ee2 style transmutation]

 

[MarkesOrelies]

@LivingAngryCheese can you just explain in what way Botania can generate resources, please?

 

[Golrith]

EnderIO, you can make custom sag mill recipes with % chance, up to max 4 outputs for one input. Combined with a mod like customitems/tabula rasa and minetweaker, and you can really go to town on what you can create.

Orechid and mana. Lay down stone blocks near the orechid and behold the wonderment of ores appearing in the stone.

project e
complete rewrite of EE2 for minecraft 1.7.10
https://github.com/MozeIntel/ProjectE
just like ee2

 

[Celestialphoenix]

EnderIO, you can make custom sag mill recipes with % chance, up to max 4 outputs for one input. Combined with a mod like customitems/tabula rasa and minetweaker, and you can really go to town on what you can create.

Same with TE, Railcraft, or GregTech.

 

[MarkesOrelies]

@Golrith Does ModTweaker have that support yet for the EnderIO stuff since they are still listing it as "Planned"

Umm you don't need modtweaker support for sag mill recipes. There are xml files you can edit in the EnderIO config folder to put custom recipes in for all machines.

 

[immibis]

MineChem - it's used in ME3.

 

[VapourDrive]

Attained Drops: basic hostile mob drops for now, more to come - http://minecraft.curseforge.com/mc-mods/225308-attained-drops

 

[Ki11er_wolf]

For 1.12.2 there is Resynth which allows you to farm all the vanilla resources.
