I updated the mods d/l in my post above so we have NEI atleast so we can see what we all need to make the stuff. >.> But yes greg has lost his mind. I'll see if I can't keep it but make the recipes easier to make.
Okay after playing with it a bit its not really all that bad.
I spent more time than I should have looking into this. My conclusions:
- Greg is a disturbed individual
- We can undo his bizarre changes to vanilla minecraft stuff using the GregTech config files
There are a few things he changed (apparently in July of this year) that we'll want to undo for our own sanity. Here are the ones I'm aware of so far:
- Crafting wood blocks yields 2 planks, not 4 (unless you use a saw tool)
- Crafting sticks from planks yields 2 sticks, not 4 (unless you use a saw tool)
- Recipes for iron tools and armor are absurdly complex
- Stone and wood tools have greatly reduced durability
We can fix these by editing the GregTech config files, which are located in your Minecraft installation (i.e. C:\Users\[Your PC Username]\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\config\GregTech by default on a Windows PC). Here are the changes you'll need to make:
Code:
In GregTech.cfg:
In "general" group:
Change settings from "true" to "false" for the following items:
B:WoodNeedsSawForCrafting
B:smallerStoneToolDurability
B:smallerWoodToolDurability
In DynamicConfig.cfg:
In "recipereplacements" group:
Change all settings for all items from "true" to "false"This seems to work in singleplayer, so I'm hopeful it'll work in multiplayer too if we apply these config settings on the server.
