[Resolved] Gregtech408s disables TConstruct ores in dictionary, any fix available?

[TigerShark]

I'm pretty sure this has already been posted or discussed somewhere were I couldn't find it but I wanted to know if someone have released a patched version of gregtech for 1.6.4 without this bu....t code.

Decompiled from 408s

if ((aOriginalMod.toLowerCase().contains("xycraft")) || (aOriginalMod.toLowerCase().contains("tconstruct")) || ((aOriginalMod.toLowerCase().contains("natura")) && (!aOriginalMod.toLowerCase().contains("natural"))))
      {
        if (GregTech_API.DEBUG_MODE) {
          GT_Log.ore.println(aMod + " -> " + aEvent.Name + " is getting ignored, because of racism. :P");
        }
        return;
      }

In the meantime I'll try to edit it myself.
Thx in advance.

I think MineTweaker can add items to the oredict.

Also @Not_Steve you're not summoning him properly. Here- borrow my skull.

Tactical edit. It comes in a tin.

With all Greg's done, I still find his debug messages pretty hilarious.

 because of racism. :P

i'm a bit afraid of what me saying this may lead to, but this explains a lot, and it's not funny...

mDiyo asked Greg not to mess with his stuff, so Greg removed any interaction with TiC.
(Also, it isn't removed from the OreDict. That's just GT ignoring it)

Someone, quick! I need something to blame on Greg. Anything will do.

Yeah, u re right on that, the ingots itself are not removed from the dict but all greg stuff and some ic will ignore it....
Anyway, I removed that from the class so it is working as I want now... this children make me work on sundays XD[DOUBLEPOST=1406483294][/DOUBLEPOST]

No one is talking about that. I play gregtech because I want to so no hard feelings but as a systems engineer I can't come to respect a programmer that puts that code into an already distributed mod.

Anyway, I edited the class and now it works as I want so this post became useless.

Thx for your time.

This is where you lost me. You just quoted this post.

Please, @TigerShark, ffs, just stop talking. If your game functions as you want it to now, good for you, but stop blasting devs just because you were inconvenienced.

Mojang hasn't finished the mod API yet.

Mojang hasn't finished the mod API yet.

Well the obvious blame there is GregoriusT.

It's clearly his interferent style of coding that is holding the fine people of Mojang back from releasing their modding API.

I'm more intrigued by the fact he included XyCraft in that list. Seriously, the hell?

Ah, thank you.

There's a reason for all this, Greg's not letting off steam, I shall explain

Both mods (Tic and Xycraft) adds something in common: Aluminum ore. It's registered in the ore dictionary as "oreAluminum".

However, Greg disagrees with this. His ore is registered in the ore dictionary as "oreAluminium" with the extra 'i'. The reason for this is because according to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (A bunch of giant science-nerds) the word "aluminium" is preferred, and that's what most people call it outside of the USA and Canada.

For a better explanation, go here.

 

[Celestialphoenix]

I always assumed they were kept as different materials as Tic and XY aluminum is a vanilla smelt, wheres GT aluminium requires the blast furnace- making the 2 equivalent would break progression.
(To the point where I actually pronounce them differently)

The more you know

 

[RavynousHunter]

Still, I'd think that would be a config line somewhere, instead of hardcoded, like how Big Reactors does with ore dictionary uranium ingots and yellorium. I say this because Greg may be many things, some of them relatively unpleasant, but he's good when it comes to giving lots of config options.
