Now this is just bonkers o_O

Okay, uh, where do I start...

Most of the changes you want to do are better off doing with Minetweaker. Definely do not remove dust smelting, that's ridiculous, it makes the Thermal Centrifuge and Tiny Dusts useless. You can disable macerating ingots into dusts, but if that causes exploits, then something is seriously wrong. The Blast Furnace doesn't require Iron Dust, it can use any form of Iron, even the raw ore.And DO NOT Edit the jar, you can't even do that with the api, there are better and easier(and also ALLOWED) ways to change the recipes.

Thanks alot for such a quick response, I'm a bit of a novice at this stuff. That theory was cobbled together after a few hours of searching round the net.

On a similar note I was looking to change some recipes in IC2.

I want to remove some of the metal dust recipes as there are some exploits smelting the dust back into ingots with the mod pack I've put together. Most of the recipes that use the dust are easy enough to fix as I can just disable them in the config and then add a changed recipe with another mod I have. The question I need answered is if I can change recipes for the blast furnace from requiring iron dust for steel from the IC2 config files or will I have to edit the .jar using the API?
