1.1.4 (14 July 2014)
  • Ported to Minecraft 1.7.10. (Might work on 1.7.2, untested!)
  • Optimized textures to shave about 150KB off the JAR size.
  • Turned compat mods into compat classes; no more spamming the mod count!

OpenComputer with it's final 1.7.2 update
Sangar said:
  • Fixed screen.getKeyboards() for multi-block screens.
  • Fixed recursive includes in recipe files.
  • Fixed math.random() to fully behave like it does in vanilla Lua.
  • Fixed a few potential crashes.
  • [MC1.7] Fixed keyboard placement on semi-solid blocks (slabs and the like).
  • [MC1.7] Fixed robot permission checks.
  • [MC1.7.10] Updated to IC2 API version 2.2.

Reminder: this will be the last update for MC1.7.2. The next updates will be 1.6.4 and 1.7.10 only.

if you look really really closely, you'll see that it's made out of pixels, which both circles and squares are made out of in Minecraft
so it's all good

Or if you watch Cartoon Networks' Amazing World Of Gumball.
There's an episode where he explains this:
Gumball said:
"Everything is made from little bits. The bits themselves are made from the smallest bits of all: Circles! Circles with other little circles going around them. So, since everything is made from circles, then so is food are pixels!"

:O Minecraft is made of pixels, which are circles.
Minecraft isn't a sandbox game.... It's a sandsphere game!

We've all been tricked! I recommend waging WAR!

I actually read the whole article (ok, not true - just the interesting stuff). And while its main point (pixels are sample points, and not squares) are true for many applications (images, video, photography), it does not hold for minecraft. (Vanilla) Minecraft intentionally views pixels as large squares, not as sample points: E.g. the diamond sword intentionally has ragged edges, the block textures intentionally look blocky. Even the view, that little squares corresponds to point sample interpolated with a box filter (or nearest neighbour), while true, does not quite express the intentions of the developers, who deliberately wanted pixels as little squares, not point samples. Mipmapping and anti-aliasing do not change this view (they just mean that the monitor pixels are treated as point samples, not the minecraft texture pixels themself), as the magnifying filter is still (and in vanilla minecraft will always be) the box filter (nearest neighbour). Or even more obvious in the case of voxels: In minecraft, voxels where meant to be cubes, not just point samples that should be interpolated (I have seen an engine, that did just that: Viewing voxels as point samples, interpolating between them and then tesselating the surface. Looked nice, but definitly different from minecraft). That being said, one could argue that some HD texture packs assume the other point of view (pixels are point samples) and would look even better (more realistic) with better magnifying filters.

Sorry for the off-topic, therefore something related: Even though Growthcraft has been updated for 1.7.2 only, it seems to work fine for 1.7.10 as well, with the exception of bamboo rafts. Hope this gets fixed soon.

The model for the rice patty soil also seems to crash.
