If so, I am going all-out storing mode.

I loved it.Am I the only person who liked/used the buffer?
On the other hand, though, she could work on tech and revitalize the genre, which it really needs.I think it'd be kind of cool if Eloraam made a magic mod. This is the genre where most of the innovation is happening, I'm sure she can only increase the creativity in this area.
Smartest statement ive seen in a while because Roc and Rec are the only passable tech mods right now that arnt stagnent (not counting TE, to simple for a full fledge tech mod)On the other hand, though, she could work on tech and revitalize the genre, which it really needs.
Railcraft hasn't been stagnant for a very long time. Just because it has a theme that it sticks to doesn't mean it's stagnant.Smartest statement ive seen in a while because Roc and Rec are the only passable tech mods right now that arnt stagnant (not counting TE, to simple for a full fledge tech mod)
Big Reactors is a standalone, just useless on its own.(mods like big reactors arn't *tech* mods just addons really)
Nope, I did that, too. Mostly because I was a tad bullheaded, loved decentralization, and hated how you had to chunkload the old teleport pipes or risk losing them to bug-induced oblivion. That, and it amused me.So was I the only one to make a really REALLY R E A L L Y long tube system and set something going down it and watch it all the way?
IC2 was stagnant, then it changed and the changes killed it. Soooooo...Smartest statement ive seen in a while because Roc and Rec are the only passable tech mods right now that arnt stagnent
BC was stagnant. Looking at 1.7 I don't think it will be again for a while.IC2 was stagnant, then it changed and the changes killed it. Soooooo...
Umm, Thaumcraft feels like a magic tech mod to me. Even more so when you see the design of the node stabilizers, looks like something out of a scifi show.Guys, let's comprise! A tech themed magic mod!
e.g the opposite of Botania, except that it's just as cool.
There's a good one out now.We really steampunk themed mod ..
Something like in Dishonored.
Thank you for saying what everyone else didn't infer....It isn't the mods themselves that are stagnant, it's the whole genre. BC's changes are still minor functionality tweaks, re-adding old content that can be done in 1.6 (albeit not as well) and a few other things other mods can already do. IC2 is dead (or zombified at best), and GT is completely total-conversion at this point. AE2 is in a state of limbo where it's still lagging behind AE1's features, though this will (hopefully) change. Railcraft is progressing and COULD be the mod we need, but it's not here yet and I sadly doubt that it can turn this ship around singlehandedly despite it's history of innovation (steam). TE is coming for 1.7 and will bring some cool stuff no doubt, but like RC I doubt it'll be enough. We need a new mod entirely with a new view and new ideas.
Actually, Azzanine's post reminded me of something odd: we don't have ONE ultra-futuristic tech mod aside from AE. Why don't we have crazy nonsense like that in Starcraft, Mass Effect, etc.?
Hell, at this rate Botania's gonna completely recreate SC2 (and most of the anime from the last decade) in MInecraft before we get an actual futute-tech mod.
Nope. That was my primary motivation for learning RP2. I even designed my base so that I could have the best view of items whizzing about.So was I the only one to make a really REALLY R E A L L Y long tube system and set something going down it and watch it all the way?
I still get the odd individual who gloats at being a 'leet haxxor' by being able to edit a .cfg file to re-enable it. Then decides to try and rub it in my face, as though it was some sort of accomplishment, or that he was somehow putting one over on me for having done so.I may have already said this, but you can disable cheat mode in the configs. Which you obviously know how to play around with as a balanced modpack maintainer.
