Recently I'm developing a new mod call FrogCraft(Named from Misaka Mikoto's favourite animal)
This mod brings many new feature to the game ,extends IC2 and GT
Some people are complaining that GT is too hard for them and they get bored. I'm guessing why a few people hate GT, maybe GT 'force' them to keep doing a same work for a long time(like keep finding rupee to get enough Cr) , my mod is designed to provide more ways for players without destroy the balance of GT,no more boring long period repeation!.
My mod consists of 4 parts:
1.IC & GT Reinforce machines:
Industrial version of electric furnance,macerator,extractor and compressor:
they have the same speed as the induction furnance and they can deal with 6 items at same time!(It costs more electricity)
Pnumetic compressor
special version of GT implosion compressor, compresses item by using the power of compressed air!Without tones of ITNT!this machine is designed to set like a implosion compressor(standard machine replaced by advance machine) Of course,it needs 1-4 gas pump(the more the faster it willbe)
It's really expensive and costs about 40 times more electricity
HSU(Hybrid storage unit) and UHSU (Ultimate hybrid storage unit) are update version of MFSU which have larger capacity (10times and 100times) and higher output voltage (2048 & 8192)
EV transformer is added so that it's possible to step down 8192 to 2048
2.Industrial devices
Stuffs about industrial chemistry, like condense tower,thermocracker,fermentor...
3.Compound ores
They are ores that more common than GT rupees, but they are complex mixture, they can't be used directly, if you want them to be use full, you need to build plenty of machines(Frogcraft and GT machines).
4.Armor and weapons
Railgun: the powerful weapon of Misaka Mikoto.it uses Industrial credit 
as ammo and has a damage of 50, now you have learnt how to use it!but the problem is, Misaka Mikoto knows how to generate electricity herselft, but you can't so 1 shot costs 100000Eu
Fiber armor: made of spider web 0w0
and more are designing....
here's a picture of the Railgun and Other machines(Texture maybe changed)
it only increase the time for me with 2 h to make all the machines + i like that u can smelt armor and u get X % more items with industrial grinder all in all hard mode one 
good joke i have to admit i ben playing minecraft with mods science Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 when IC1 came out so ya gregtech hard mode more like more like peaceful mode (for the those that are new to modding minecraft i understand)
