Greetings and salutations, my friends!
I'm here today to present you all with an idea; It's a pretty elementary one, and with the help of the community, I'm entirely sure that this can, indeed, be done.
But that's enough blabbing, allow me to quickly introduce you to: The 1.7 way.
The Concept:
The 1.6~1.7 transition in modded minecraft was pretty difficult for me; 1.7 didn't quite instantly convince me of it's superiority over 1.6. The new features were in overwhelming amounts, that's for sure - but in the other hand, probably because I still was getting used to it all, I've feel like some "core" features of my favorite mods were missing! I've felt like I didn't have that many options anymore. Oh, I couldn't have been more wrong.
1.7 mods have given us, at the current moment, a huge amount of new, shinier, bigger toys to play with! New ways of: ore processing, building, moving around, etc; So many things, that in fact, I got a bit lost! Too many things to discover! Too many ways of doing things. And this is what this thread is suppose to help you with.
I'll separate this thread in categories, as said before: ore processing, building, etc. And with the help of you guys, we will be able to fill these categories up with the various ways of doing such things, until we've listed every single one, hopefully. That's our goal: to list all of the 1.7 ways of doing things.
Observations:
1. Here, we're not listing the most efficient way of doing things in whole modded community; Therefore, something being faster and more productive doesn't disqualify any other way of doing the same exact thing. But yes, I am going to prioritize faster and most efficient way of doing 'X' in one specific mod, for example, I'm not going to list every single type of rail in Railcraft, but I'm going to most likely than not, list the fastest one. Any doubts, just ask them below.
2. I am not only going to try to list all of the 1.7 ways, but give a brief description, information and maybe some links to it's wiki page. Therefore, if you want to include them in your suggestion, please do. Specially considering that I'm far away from knowing every single thing about any mod off the top of my head, so, if you're willing to help me out, that's would be great. This is a community thread after all, right?
3. Do not expect for every single suggestion to be in, if yours isn't included, a better way of doing it in the mod you mentioned is more likely than not might already in.
4. It is possible that I pick person's "A" suggestion, and person's "B" better description. Both will be credited for their respective contribution.
5. Yes, as said before, I am going to give you proper credit for your suggestion.
6. This list is only going to include 1.7.10 features. Exceptions are possible.
Let's start, shall we?~Ore Processing:
