I'm slowly losing my mind...

You aren't the only one losing your mind; I've just realized the furnace's texture isn't symmetrical.

new day, new update, and today it's @joshie with an update for Mariculture

Mariculture 1.2.2b

• Added a KirinDave proof check to the Crucible Furnace
• Added a FTB DW20 Pack check to ravines...
• Added silly mods with null fluid checks to vat handler
• Fixed fishing crash again?
• Coral Spreading should error less
• Retro-Gen will only spam the console in debug mode

 

[dmillerw]

According to a vague comment by cpw, we may be getting 1.7.9 soon.

 

[KirinDave]

Oh god what did he do to me.

 

[Vasa]

Im not sure if this was mentioned but ATG is updated to 1.7

0.9.8 for MC 1.7.2

• This is a PORT version of the 1.6 generator to 1.7. THINGS WILL CHANGE, and world bordersWILL NOT MATCH UP IN LATER VERSIONS! This version is for the impatient who want to play ATG in 1.7 before I do all the major feature updates that I've been intending. Stick with this version if you use it until you make another new world, because it'll mess up borders later. You have been warned!
• It is strongly recommended that this version is not used in public mod packs because of the upcoming changes. This is especially directed at FTB!
• Ported to 1.7.2
• Added support for the various new biomes available in 1.7.
• Removed Boreal Forest biome, as it is now obsolete.
• Removed Savanna biome, as it is now obsolete.
• Reworked the Tropical Shrubland biome - it now looks more like a transition between forest/savanna/jungle than a stumpy, balding jungle biome. Consequently, its temperature has dropped to be in line with the new savanna.
• IGenModCoords has been merged with IGenMod, as I should have provided that functionality to begin with. Seemed like a good time to fix it properly.
• Volcano grass colour has changed to take advantage of the new location aware biome colour functions.
• Minor biome decoration tweaks to bring them in line with their 1.7 neighbours.

PRAISE THE LORD ALMIGHT After today I am absolutely livid with 1.7 I GOT A NULLPOINTER FROM SHIFT CLICKING TOO QUICKLY FOR PETES SAKES
I've been ripping and replacing mods trying to figure out why ender io was crashing... but instead of telling me the REAL source IT POINTS ME TO WHO WAS DOING IT RIGHT! Just... So much rage after trying once more to maake a 1.7 modpack Just absolutely ready to to flip tables, and kick bee's... I eventually figured out my problems but the amount of ripping, pulling, and tearing I had to do to even get things functioning semi decently is just absolutely nonsensical... Oh let's not forget how the music loops over itself in 1.7.2 aswell... Just absolute nonsense.. I'm holding way the heck off until this update.

 

[CarbonBasedGhost]

I don't think it has been mentioned but it is well know. It is great to see all these mods updating though.

new day, new update... well, sort of. not really a mod update, but rather a sneap peak from @Mithion for Ars Magica

AM2 1.2 Preview 2:

 

[Dylan4ever]

While skimming through the MCforums, I found this little gem.

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2657008-172forge-malisisdoors/

It is only for 1.7.2 (which I don't mind, since that is the version I am on myself), which is unfortunate for all those people stuck in 1.6. However, it all looks amazing! A wide variety of practical things that take home entrances to the next level.

One of my personal favourites is the Player Sensor, a simple redstone thing that emits a pulse when a player is standing below it (somewhat like those self-opening doors at malls and alike). And I am sure the builders amongst us will very much enjoy the Block Mixer, which blends two textures together to create a block with two different textures on the sides (I suppose you should check it out, it is rather hard to explain). And ofcourse more doors, improvements to vanilla doors and vanishing frames.

so... vazkii has made a new mod called watmean

Just a simple mod I quickly cooked up in less than an hour or so. It adds some buttons to the right the screen, that appear when you move your cursor to the right, that let you search on various websites for whatever you have on your text bar. Left clicking the buttons opens that page on your browser, right clicking changes the text on your text field to the URL.

so... vazkii has made a new mod called watmean

Yet another in-game wiki mod? Or rather, how different is it to the in-game wiki mod?
