    And you don't have to use mods you deem 'too easy'. What's your point?

    That makes no fucking sense though? We are talking about GregTech and how his recipes might cause effect on other mods... Why not protest FC's BTW mod and say hey bitch your mod seems to break every single mod... This whole argument is pretty much just that.... GregTech has certain compatibility issues with other mods. If you are effected by it and don't like it please remove the mod...



    This is not a pissing match this is HEY BEEP, Just because your special and make a great mod does not mean you need to QQ and copyright and cry everytime someone has some kind of impact effect on your mod. She really really needs to grow up.


    Greg is one person. Greg does not have any authority over what is 'balanced'. If Greg believes that his opinion supersedes that of the other mod makers, then, yes, Greg should fuck off. Don't call Greg a 'savior'. He already has enough of an apparent god complex as it is. GregTech adds a lot of neat things, but it's polluted by all the things it seeks to 'better'.


    If you want a really challenging game- and this is a serious recommendation- check out Wurm Online.

    Greg is a person and its gregs mod and he can balance whatever he likes with his mod tbh... As long hes not touching their code... Once again you don't have to use his fucking mod....

    Like I said, IMHO. I think if a mod like RP2 or xycraft that don't have apis shouldn't really be altered until the modder says they can, and I highly doubt that elo has said greg could change rp2. He can go ahead and fuck with ic2, buildcraft, forestry, whatever mod has an api and I don't care, but when he goes ahead and alters a mod that doesn't have an api I think he is going past his limits. And that's the reason why the mod I am codding won't have an api as I wouldn't want people to change it.

    Altering a recipe is not altering a mod. He could easily use the same recipe and set it to priority override. That is like someone using a item ID from RP default. Do you demand them to shut down their mod?

    IMHO greg tech should stop trying to get into every single mod, some people may not like greg tech and some may, and if a modder is against greg tech then there mod should not be used changed in greg tech.




    PS, I think it's best not to alter rp2 unless elo says so, as from what I heard, she is not someone you want to be on there bad side.

    GregTech is suppose to Alter the gameplay including any and all mods he deems to be to easy and wants to change it up a bit and make it more challenging. This his how his mod works. You just pretty much said for Greg to fuck off. Don't use his mod if you don't like it. His mode is meant to be a balance to many mods but also provide more things to to end game.


    This guy is a saviour in my books. To many mods have become to easy and boring. FTB and Tekkit are nothing but creative mode packs.

    Greg, Do you need help doing a mini site or forum or anything? I'm no web designer just a guy with the resources. Either way I suggest you start working on something even like a blog so that your work and efforts have a fallout place and hell, I hate to say it but your mod is pretty much superior then a lot of mods out there and should be treated as such!

    Lag...The bane of everyone's existence and typically the end for most modded minecraft worlds. Nether isn't really laggier than the main world; the opposite should be true (on a virgin untouched nether; one that hasn't been ravaged by pumps and all the other technological goodies that screw with lava flows and create all kinds of CPU overhead for all the block updating required). Nether has more spawn checking to be sure due to how mobs there (outside of fortresses) spawn; but typically less overall spawning space than the overworld.


    On a server even in a void age you will still notice server tick lag and all that other happy stuff since worlds are still being kept loaded versus the listen server that's created in single player.


    You could use mystcraft effectively for a void type age if you really wanted, however. You could even disable (via config) whatever you didn't want in mystcraft (examples being the crystals (one portal to one world only); age books themselves; hell even age symbols or the benches to create them).

    I was told Mystcraft was not suitable just for a void age due to some bugs and issues that tend to come with the mod. Though I do thank you for the info I did hear about being able to create and lock I guess its called worlds on SMP.

    The world isn't lagging, the code is. Even if you create a flat plains world it will still eventually lag even though there is nothing out there.


    Identifying what causes the lag is however extremely difficult. It could be anything from a single block, a specific addon or a combination of addons that only occurs under very special circumstances. Even your server could be lagging form outside influence (unless you happen to have an expensive true root server with exclusive access, but then it could still be network). The only real way to figure out the lag would be to have the server run with a special performance measurement tool that will then tell you which part of the code is actually taking how much time. But then someone still has to fix that. ;)

    I know the world is not lagging. This is not Server TPS but rather Client FPS I'm pointing out. Being a admin of a semi large community, we tend to have a lot of players on lower spec computers. Being able provide a more building area that is more lag free say 1 layer of grass and nothing else clearly offers superior client fps boost as their is less things to render and I think that's mainly due to lighting? I do run jvisual vm on my server often to see what related is causing some issues.

    I though this might be a little related:


    forums.bukkit.org/threads/info-admn-performance-monitor-v1-7-1-1-4-5-r0-3.86916/


    Of course you can only indentify some problems but still usefull.

    Downside is the bukkit. Good side there is an actual tps mod tell you the TPS per world. Letting you know at least what world might be failing.



    Overall guys this was not about lowering the TPS though it would help when it comes to loading and unloading chunks as there is none to load really but was related to client FPS for larger and bigger and more complex builds and squeezing that extra fps!

    v.1.4.5
    - IC2 1.112, MC 1.4.6 compatibility update
    - removed usage of deprecated IC2 API (not well-tested, let me know if something doesn't work as expected)
    - lang file encoding bug fixed
    - Closing of Info Panel GUI bug fixed
    - Card SMP syncing issue fixed

    Sweet thanks!

    Lol at your Version Number. :D



    Good that its updated, so I can test if my Stuff is still working.

    LOL, This happens with a couple mods I noticed on the MCF as well. Kind of annoying and funny at the same time but I'm use to it but I could see newbies confused as hell hehe.

    I will give this a try soon btw Thunder. But for some reason a lot of players get hit by the area defence system even set to NPC only on borders. Not death but sort of like what it was for myself when the chunk got unloaded for the security station. Accept this time security station was right there. It seems that the checking system got a bit of a typo I guess and causes a slight pulse of damage before saying ohh hes fine. (2.2.8.1.17c)

    Simple Fix GregoriusT.


    Make a small mod addon with GT letting us change just that any and all recipes we want. Then offer a pastebin of changes that users can make on their own and nothing to do with GT but rather then the open ability for users to modify their own game for their own Enjoyment. This means GT has nothing to do with it and it's 100% user done. If this causes issues still, then clearly the developers have really lost the whole concept of making mods in the first place.


    Greg is balancing the mods for people who use more then 1 mod and who actually want a challenge. Stepping on this just proves you guys are nothing but nasty and yes I will say it selfish people. Just because someone makes a mod and gives it out free does not mean they can't be selfish. A lot them get pleasure out of what they do and even fame. No way you can tell me otherwise as I know the feeling running a larger server. But I'm more about a open modding community. Every mod should have an option to enable and disable a function. FFS you guys got bored of vanilla Minecraft or felt it was not perfect or was missing elements. So you made a mod.... But now someone felt like mod a and mod b had issues so he made a small fix that is 100% optional... BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT Nope we gotta be some evil sounding corporation and prevent anyone from doing anything.


    Notch is at fault he should have added better rules when it came to doing mods. The guy is open to everyone and pretty much allowed everyone to profit even off his game and yet some how we turned into douche bags.

    RedPower is a special case. Eloraam dislikes people tampering with her mod.

    pretty sure you can change recipes without actually tampering directly with her mod. To lock a thread based on this is just pathetic. Stop kissing her ass and grow some balls. I'm tired of how people make her out to be some kind of saint and wonderful person. She made a good mod. She is personally an ass and thinks shes special. The way she use to handle things in the past should have made her just as bad as FC if not worse. Threatening to sue and shut-down and cry and ugh. Shes got boobs and so everyone loves her.


    Lots of good things out there does not mean the person running it is good.

    As mentioned by SpwnX, and by you previously, Eloraam really doesn't like changing anything in her mod and before you know it we could have another XyCraft-like issue here if it was left ON by default in the config.

    You guys know what I think. She will say "sue" "quit" and etc. I mean he has warnings and such and what hes doing is not stealing or using her code as far as I know. Maybe its time that someone retires ;) IDK. I just get beyond upset when people cry. if they don't like it they don't have to use it and yet this man here configs everything. To many people are entitled douche bags these days :(
