Question about ore generation

[Saphirian]

Hey!
Since I heard that there will be only one type of an ore in the next update (for example: we have different kinds of silver right now, and there will be only one kind of silver after the update that generates), will all needed ores still generate if I disable GregTech or do I have to change things in the configs?
Thanks in advance.
(Also I hope this is in the right subforum, sorry if it's not :/)

Gregtech generates ores for it's own uses aside from iridium generation that it needs, it's ores aren't part of thermal expansions new ore generation for the other types that FTB plans to use and gregtechs ores aren't being touched by them. Gregtech was stated in Slowpoke's stream today to be on hard mode for the mindcrack pack, to be off for the ultimate pack but included, and to be on for the tech pack but set to not have the hard mode recipes.

Okay, thanks

There might still be two silvers. Factorization needs a lot of Silver and Lead which is hard to get without its galena Silver Ore. Now, they could set it so that enough silver spawns for Factorization and then some, but that's not going to do much good unless Factorization has been made to play better with the ore dictionary and have the Slag Furnace actually recognize other kinds of silver.
