Actually, I think the dust has settled on that war.
Anyways, its one of the only available options for a stable, safe installation. We'll of course be looking into having different setup possibilities in future.
ATlauncher might be leaning towards beeing an actual alternative, if we can get it to work.

As for an addition to Lefty's reply :

1. We don't want to force people into IC2 since we use Gregtech on hard difficulty. If someone is willing to take the extra step and go for Basic Components they are free to do so. We have Platinum Ore disabled tho.
2. Tinkers construct will soon offer any advantages in a more plannable and more feasible manner then enchanting could. Plus we sell Charms of Keeping for Diamonds at spawn so if you really lay emphasis to it, you can keep your tools all the time. They are even repairable without level cost.

No, I won't add anything recipe-related to the config file.
However, I have something in mind to change the output in the config option.

Could you then add a second set of recipes that are much more expensive? Your current recipes are a serious joke. 4 Windmills + 1 Transformer Upgrade is nothing. Needs at least Iridium Plates for every further tier to tie it, the rotors need to break faster and a wooden rotor is a joke, too. Maybe you could add a set of Gregtech enhanced recipes, a little something like this :

Lv Windmill :

S W S
W E W
S W S

S = Steel Plate
W = Windmill
E = Energyflow Circuit

MV Windmill

T T T
W I W
T T T

T = Titanium Plate
W = LV Windmill
I = Iridium Ingot

HV Windmill :

TS TS TS
H W H
TS TS TS

TS = Tungstensteel Plate
H = Highly Advanced Machineblock
W = MV Windmill

EV Windmill :

SC S I
C W C
I S SC

I = Iridium Plate
S = Superconductor
C = Gregtech Computercube
W = HV Windmill
SC = Supercondensator

That would be nice and would allow people that like challenge to also use it

Also, if the mod author doesnt want to do it, Greg, could you please do something like this?

Hey there,
can you please add a config option to customize the recipes, and to customize the output?

Your post looks kinda flawed, also pretty sure you cant just offer mod files to download right here without permissions to do so from the authors.

(include a Check report with whitelist.mcf.li)

Why do you want to join?: i once played on a server that had 110 mods+ i thought it was amazing! but it got shut down because of money issues with the owner. now i have been searching for a server with new mods and old mods (so i know what im doing but can also explore aswell). but then i found your server. although i hesitated because i saw it was hosted in germany, but then i saw its international and i would love to join this community. you seems like a responsible server owner who isnt "greedy" (which i will donate, but after i buy my new desktop. i have been saving for years). thanks you so much for taking the time for reading this application and i hope to see you in game for many laughs and adventures!

Anything else you want to tell us?: Now you may look at my age and automatically think that i am immature, but i feel like one of the most MATURE 15 year old out there because of my absence of "vulgar" subjects. also i have been a mod AND an admin on many servers, which basically states that i love to help, and will continue to help as i pass through minecraft servers in the future. Again, thanks for reading this application and hope to see you in-game!

The server was very inactive so it shut down. I will be making a 1.5 server on the mindcrack pack when it comes out.

Mindcrack probably wont come out in 1.5, only in 1.6, since it waits on redpower.

Quote from hosker666

That is actually a really good idea, may be a little too advanced for me though. I am not new to java, but am very new to minecraft modding. I know how to make the ores Dimension specific (for example only generate in nether) but wouldn't know where to start making items spawn at specific locations especially as the locations are not normally defined until someone visits the dimension upon which it is generated. does that make sense? BUT on the other hand if i set up that system and made the chaos emeralds NEI only then that could make a pretty awesome adventure map!!!!

haha well you never know, i did say i would be adding more gems XD

Well there is code that generates the Strongholds, so that does become a possibilty. You can just hook into this code and then make it spawn an additional block everytime or smth.

It is a leaked 1.4.5 release, someone delete that link

@People thinking IC2 recipes are too easy and "OP"
You guys have played the mod a while, after playing anything for this long, what doesn't become easy and a sort of routine? Remember when you first picked up IC2, had no idea what you were doing, and just sort of progressed up the tech tree? Back during your first experience I can say with 99% certainty that nobody thought "wow this is OP" when they first reached UU-matter, or thought "that was way too easy" when they first crafted a diamond drill.

When I started playing this, I read some stuff in the wiki and watched a simple basic LP. Two days later I had a Quantum armor and UU-Matter en Massè. I was like "wouldnt something as powerful as this be harder to obtain?"

@whole discussion.

1. Gregtech adds all those things because they are cool, and unless you guys he actually takes the time and adds them and makes them configurable.
2. All the stuff you complained about can be disabled in the config
3. The allocators and stuff are just way smoother and better suited for special tasks then bc or rp.

4. Industrialcraft as is is stupidly OP. After a while you can spam UU-Matter like hell and the lack of high-tier-tech is disturbing. This addon is almost more important for our server then IC2 itself. Without it Ic2 would have to leave immedeatly, too.

To Greg :

Ich finde es super, dass du ein bisschen Balance in Ic2 bringst, und die neuen Ideen sind toll. Dein addon ist der einzige grund dass wir Ic2 nicht längst für Thermal expansion gedumpt haben auf unserem Server.

I would like you to tell me how, I would like to test it with vanilla IC2. I was never able to do it.

Mine straight for 3 hours. Geothermals in the Neter, profit.

Also, if you have buildcraft or redpower :
Mine straight for 2 hours, Tons of auto-manned watermills

If you have advanced solars :
Mine for 3 hours, aquire HV solar panel, use UU-M to make more panels

If you have Forestry/Buildcraft :
Mine for 2 Hours, Giant automatic charcoal farm with Generators

Could you maybe add an advanced use for slimeballs?
Also, could you maybe add an 1000 millibuckets water storage tank to the grinder, and let it be refilled with buildcraft pipes?

@Greg

Discovered a Bug with your Industrial Electrolyzer.
When changing dimension back and forth, it appears as advanced machine block, still works, but not at all displays its inventory (you can still take and put from the inventory).
Mining it and re-placing makes it work again.

Edit :
Another bug, neither Ruby Dust, Sapphire Dust, Enderpearl Dust or Endereye Dust works as amplifier for the matterfab

Quote from BrickedKeyboard

Greg : if the tin cells aren't supposed to be produced by uum, how are they supposed to be produced?

If you think a player should mine for a perpetual supply of tin, then
a. This is lame, because tin isn't even consumed in the reaction
b. It makes the fusion reactor uncompetitive with renewable energy sources

Anyways, it sounds pretty simple to me : just add another output slot to the side of the fusion reactor that the products go, and put the empties in that slot. I think this is the best solution, as it makes the most sense. It doesn't sound like a whole lot of coding, mostly cut and pasting.

Second, you should total up the total amount of energy invested to make a fusion reactor, and make it pay for itself within some defined time period of continuous operation. The EU/second output can be defined by this. I'll do the math here in a minute.

Third, another nasty problem with your fusion reactor : it requires absurd amounts of water to be processed. (the base ingredient). This is laggy, especially in SMP. (pumping water in minecraft sends a block update to all clients, and you have to do it a LOT). For this reason, I would multiply the fuel durations for fusion fuel by a factor of 10 or so.

Fusion reactor iridium cost : (0.5+ 1+ 0.25)*27 + 8+1+6+ 1+2 = ~186 iridium plates. That's 747 iridium ore. Rounding to 750 because I may have miscounted, these recipes are complicated. Each iridum ore is 7 uum. Each uum is 16.6 million energy. Thus, with default settings, you need to make 87,150 million energy.

Fusion reactor makes 4096 EU/tick. Net result, a fusion reactor needs 300 hours to pay for the energy that had to be used to make it.

Ok this really is pretty absurd. If a player needs energy, they aren't going to have 87,150 million energy to invest in a way to get more. Also, at the current absurd tin burn rate : over the 300 hours, it'll take 41,556 tin ingots. Or 20,778 pieces of tin ore. That's 6 doublechestfuls of pure tin ore.

Just roaming in here saying I got three barrels full of tin ore (6x64x64) from my quarry running for one week on a server (alongside with alot of other goodies). And that was only one!
UU Matter is worth the investition, since when one has got the reactor, he can easily aquire the rest of the endgame items. It really breaks down to have or have not the Iridium Ore at the end.
Who the hell is going to use UU-Matter for Tin when said tin just sits everywhere in the entire underground of your world.

Maybe you could add advanced versions of your machines based on the railcraft principe so a machine needs to be an actual structure.
Maybe a centrifuge with 6 input and 6 output slots or something similar.
