Well thankfully the wgt and ngt packs have been replaced by the unleashed and unhinged packs. Now everybody's happy.
Read more. Greg added code that intentionally crashed the client if you had GregTech and Tinkerer's Construct installed at the same time. The code was removed, but Greg simply won't admit that he did wrong, and he even admitted he'd use innocent bystanders to get his way.
Personally, I don't like GregTech because either the modder's idea of balance is warped, or he's just trying to accomplish it the lazy way out. Sure, he added progression, but the progression is badly implemented, and you end up having to jump through a ridiculous amount of hoops to get almost anything done. Having to grind for days or even weeks for a simple machine just for a few blocks to finish building a house doesn't feel rewarding at all.
Things would not have run without issue without the crash. The wood recipe would be wrong and exploitable

This one from the FTB subreddit seems to have got the ball rolling. There's already an official GIT and everything. Yes, it's open source! None of that malicious crash code, guaranteed.
That's wonderful! Isn't that one of the people that made MCPC?http://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/1ilmq3/gregtech_alternative_wip/

Possibly for the same reason terrafirmacraft does anything the way it does. Honestly I see that being the general direction Greg is going with his mod except in an obviously more technical fashion. It's definitely not everyone's cup of tea, but there's nothing wrong with Greg doing it that way if he enjoys it.[DOUBLEPOST=1374284174][/DOUBLEPOST]Let's turn this around. If this is the case, why is a wood nerf necessary?
There is no "wrong" recipe. Seriously, neither you nor Greg get to define words as you want. The game ran just fine, until Greg decided to specifically make changes that intentionally crashed the game.

Actually he does get to define the right/wrong recipe, being a modder

No, I define it for my game, no other. There was nothing wrong until Greg decided to modify things to intentionally crash the game.
So, given the choice, you'd rather have an exploit available or potential world breaking?
As long as we can get another mod in such as Atomic Science and others like it that add the same or similar aspects that GregTech/IC2 do i see no problem with his mod being quarantined to its own pack.
I could not agree more! The only problem with such a thing happening is that most UE mods like atomic science have really shit documentation and it'd be hard for people to figure it out.
With the changes to the forum rules, http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/new-forum-rule.26666/#post-358880
I would advise you all to go check them before any more comments as now this entire topic is in breach of it, guess the ban hammer will get plenty of use, meh I'll most likely be hit by one of its swings petty soon I guess, in case I dont get a chance, nice knowing you guys n gals pz.
Well here I was checking on news for FTB and 1.6 and I run across this thread. I didn't read each and all of these posts only a select few. I am just going to give an opinion of an avid FTB player that enjoys playing games.
Gregtech with all its changes in 1.4.7 did nothing for me but utterly make me enjoy the game more. It gave me more of a progression, forced me to use some mods that I probably wouldn't have and simply made the game longevity better and longer. Is this bad? In my opinion no, but for some people who enjoyed jumping right to end game or having very little progression at all may beg to differ.
I for one understand if some people are angry if someone intentionally broke a pack or made another mod obsolete, but I for one just say I highly doubt someone intentionally broke anything and I vote to keep the mod in and I for one hopes it makes things at end game even harder. If you want someone easy just go play vanilla....
Mine long and mine deep!
