What mods do you feel have been ignored?

[RedBoss]

Gany's Surface. It adds all the worldgen decorative blocks from 1.8 plus more. It even generates the water temples, but alas not the guardians.

I'd also add that mods with silly permissions tend to get ignored by and large. AtomikStryker's mods and Mo' Creatures stand out as offenders in this catergory.

Storage Drawers is a great mod that is exactly like a combination of Bibliocraft shelves and Jabba barrels. Ender Book is what I am using as a fast travel home option in place of portal gun but its a lot better in that it can hold multiple warp points. Another mod by the same author(duke something or other), called Boost adds an early game alternative to boots of the traveler. Practicalities for its magnet which is better than the other guy's versions, plus it has the sitis stick which stops rain.

Mekanism. 8/8 mod, has awesome ore processing machines, generators, etc.
But dires spotlight on it is horribly outdated ==> extremely unpopular

And Mekanism needs better optimization(code is messier than my room).
Which could be a reason why it's not in many FTB packs.

Yeah, my transmitter code is so messy that I don't even understand it anymore. It should receive a solid makeover in v8.

In terms of general optimization, however, my machines are for the most part server-friendly as of v7, and already have a ton of optimizations ready for the next release. Plus, if you don't trust my pipes and cables, EnderIO has a perfect replacement

I focused almost all of the tech in my last 1.6.4 world around Mekanism:

. EnderIO cables are not a perfect replacement when you want to see whats going through the pipes.

Who cares? It is awesome! Mekansim is probably my favorite tech mod, or at least in the top three.

Nothing beats MFR for seeing your items move around, except perhaps LP.

MFR for seeing stuff move around? All of its machines just eat stuff and spit it out magically. Golems and carts, bro.

Awesome to hear!

Conveyors bro, conveyors. Nothing like them for moving items around the base, and watching them go. Huge, space consuming, and terribly fun to watch.

The best kind, if you can get away with not crushing performance.

(I know nothing of conveyors, I just like huge, space consuming solutions)

 

[xTordX]

Hmm... Ignored?
What about Infinibows? Every mod has it (almost) but no-one really cares about it.

My friend's obsessed of tht mod and i hate it because it's so unbalanced.

and yet there's a config file that allows you to massively change it's "balance", combined with minetweaker for things not available in the config. By default in a mod pack that allows automation of crop farms, it is "unbalanced".

I can speak from experience that no matter how many config options you add, most people will complain about something Everything in attained drops is configurable and yet in over half of the spotlights people complain about it being too slow, one person even said it was simply broken.

What's the rule of thumb? 90% of your users won't know the config exists, 95% won't change it, so your defaults have to be sufficient and good enough.
