GregTech 5.08.18 , now with black magic! (and many other things like working processing arrays)

Enable it on OverpoweredStuff.cfg

So, by "Overpowered Stuff" you mean "stuff a sane person would consider well balanced."
It's GregTech; what was I expecting? Dirt-to-diamonds?

 

[Blood Asp]

It also explodes on overvoltage. Just how it must be in GT. Also everything has a config.

He didnt listen to me when I told him to get it outta overpoweredstuff.cfg. Nobody listens to Pyure (darn smart people)

What's this? Unstable Tinker's Construct tools? O.O

You only have 10 seconds to assemble and apply modifiers.

Gaah what sorcery is thi-- oh nevermind it's just a meme.

He is alive! Guys, you can tell the police to stop the search now

Darn I knew I didn't toss him into a deep enough hole.

My guess: You have to make the parts in a smeltery, by melting down diamonds, iron an an activated Division Sigil (gives enough molten sigil for 256 unstable ingots). Cast the parts normally; they will explode after being in your inventory for ten seconds or when dropped on the ground (so make sure you have inventory space when you click the casting table), but they do not explode when you close any given GUI, unlike regular unstable ingots. Also make sure you have a tool station/forge nearby.

Either that, or just use Mobius Ingots (made with a Pseudo-Inversion Sigil... Tema recently renamed them that, right?) in the part builder.

The Forge people could do a breaking release based on 1.7 to add registries to everything.

IIRC Ted80's mods let you use old biome placement with the new biomes.

Let's try to keep the discussion to where discussion belongs, the RED thread or a new thread dedicated to a specific topic.​

I see no reason why any post that isn't a mod update shouldn't be deleted or moved to RED.

It was such a good idea that I went ahead and did this.

Looking at you, @NJM1564.

 

[NJM1564]

Looking at you, @NJM1564.

Single replays are generally permissible. It's long drawn out conversations that are supposed to be moved here. That spangbod pix should have bin slash quoted or something though.

Excellent, thank you very much. I use the Modded News thread to keep on top of new stuff so wading through images and unrelated comments was a mild annoyance. Now you just have to go do the other 475 pages

Aaaanndd...

I'm actually starting to feel better about this left-handed option. Not only will it make the button clicks more intuitive (left click to swing the left thing, right click to use my right hand...?) but I'm different!

@CoolSquid backport plz

 

[Planetguy]

I'm sort of looking into doing a left-handed rendering mod.

 

[lenscas]

I'd suggest we first wait till mojang has done it and then not only backport it but also make it better.

"Whatever they can do, we can do better!"
So true.

except for skins apparently as we are still using the pre 1.8 skins

One's own consideration of whats balanced is fair enough, and I respect that regardless of if I agree with them.

However claiming 'sane' people must consider XYbalance is saying that those who have different tastes to your own must be ''insane''- apart from being somewhat disrespectful to other's tastes you're also being gratuitously offensive to those with a genuine mental illness.​

 

[TomeWyrm]

There's also the weight of public opinion. When you're in the minority, you're in the minority. And Greg's idea of balance is certainly in the minority. Not way far out into the next state levels of out-there... but still much more obstacle-laden than the vast majority of players will tolerate.

Also...
Sane: (of an undertaking or manner) reasonable; sensible.
synonyms: sensible, practical, advisable, responsible, realistic, prudent, wise, reasonable, rational, levelheaded, commonsensical, judicious, politic
