i think u should make it compatible with a few mods because its a little boring on its own,me and my friends like mod combinations and we think this mod would be perfect for a couple mods,besides that its a good mod(reply if u want to know the mods we think it would be good for)
If you think it's boring, then you don't clearly understand what makes this mod what it is.
I find that without this mod the game is boring. This mod has restored my inspiration and entertainment in minecraft.
why are people so hellbent on making technic modpacks? o.0

well i didn't mean exactly its boring what i meant was it could be MORE fun if it was compatible cause i have seen alot of things on youtube and other people think the same

My mod and BuildCraft are the only two I have an interest in playing man, so there's just no incentive for me to work on compatibility patches or what have you for other mods, as I wouldn't really want to play them anyways.
I can understand it being fun for you and others if such a thing existed, but since it wouldn't be fun for me, I can't see why I'd do it

Boring? You're obviously not building the amazing automated contraptions this mod can produce. I suggest going to Battosay's channel for inspiration. :smile.gif:

ok in guess i see your pointi was just saying,please just put some anouncment if u do,and please in later versions think about it a little

Then why not just let someone else, say, all of the people who are actually compiling these mod packs, do the work on making it compatible? I don't know why you're so hellbent on it not being used with other mods. I mean, BTW is a good mod and all, and BTB makes it better, but it would be so much better if you'd just let it be put in technic or something.

That's... not a very good reason. Do you seriously not have a reason for not allowing your mod to mix with others, even if someone else does the work on compatibility issues?
Since when more = better ?
Why do people always need more, even when it completely ****s up the balance ?
And who the **** came first, the chiken or the egg ?
I'm not saying more = better. I'm saying that the stuff in BTW would work VERY well when combined with the stuff in Technic. It's kind of the entire thing about Technic.

Nope, I've just already explained my reasons for it at such length and so many times that sarcastic replies are all I have left.

Technic can suck my hairy left nut. It started as an unauthorized mod-pack intended to spite mod-authors created by a bunch of whiny brats, and that's what it will always remain in my mind.

Alright, everyone here likes cheeseburgers right? Let's use that to help explain the differences here. (Vegetarians feel free to assume I'm talking about veggie burgers or salads or some other rabbit food.) Okay, so you've got a whole bunch of mods, all of them are different types of cheeseburgers. Some of them are awesome, glorious cheeseburgers of epic proportions, some of them are tasty little sliders that aren't that big, but are still satisfying, and some are sheets of cardboard processed with beef scrap and third world tears. Now when you take a big glorious cheeseburger and you eat it by itself, it is delicious, yes? And with the sliders, you can have one or a few and it's okay. And you avoid the other ones, whatever. Now modpacks like Technic are basically taking all of these cheeseburgers and putting them in a blender, making a smoothie out of all cheeseburgers good and bad. Every once in a while you'll find a bit of the good cheeseburger in there, but for the most part you're wading through the crap to find one part of the smoothie to enjoy, and with all the other junk in there it's hard to even focus on those parts. Why would anybody want a smoothie like that? Just get a cheeseburger or two and a side of fries (patches like BTB), maybe a soda and a beer and enjoy. Or, hell, if you learn to make your own burgers with the pieces of other burgers, you could make an amazing burger just for you. But no, this is the fast food generation, where everyone wants their quick and easy cheeseburger smoothie handed to them through a window.
On a more serious note. To those who are asking to be included in mod packs, you obviously don't understand the point of the mod.
The point of the mod is progression. Giving a sense of realism (read as reasoning) to the Minecraft world. I've said this multiple times already, but with the latest update redstone now has a backstory of how it was created, where before it was just something that was magically powering objects that somehow could take the magical signals.
You progress through the game, placing higher tiered items on top of lower tier items in order to gain something. For instance, you start out as having farms you cut by hand. Eventually you automate them, and start turning out a ton of resources without actually doing anything. Suddenly you have a ton of hemp, you then grind it with the mill that you were creating in the mean time, create mechanical power to automate that mill, which in turn increases your hemp grinding so that you can create more rope. More rope means more mechanical branches, eventually you have enough rope left over to be used in pulleys, that support platfroms made from the sugarcane farm that you automated and now have an abundance of. This now leads to better looking mines, as well as smarter mining because you can actually do proper mineshafts.
Can you see the progression? If you didn't see that, then you don't know anything about the mod and should perhaps play it before you go commenting on how much better it could be with other mods, that you may or may not have played either.
I know what you all want, the ones who want it to be in a combo pack (aka technic). You want the elevators, and detector blocks and such. Elevators are cool, no other mod gives them (as far as I know). Oh my god I could do cool things with red power and elevators! Ugh. Yeah. You could, except there's no way these mods would ever coexist, simply because red power isn't fit into a progressive tech tree like BTW is. That alone, is a BIG problem. With a mod that stands for progression, only wanting elevators is no reason to go and make (or even combine into) a combination pack.
Instant gratification is fine and all (and fun a lot of the times, I admit), but asking for that in a mod that requires you to work for something is honestly a waste of breathe, and just shows that you don't take any interest into this mod other than "oh look cool features!". It's disrespectful even to the mod creator.
Mod creators aren't here for you, they have no requirement that says they have to listen to what anyone wants. Let's just put it this way, for someone who's not getting a penny to code, you really need to start realizing that he doesn't owe you anything. I'm a coder myself, I'm in college taking Java Programming and C++ with C#. I love coding. However I'm not planning on making that my job, becuase as soon as coding starts to feel like a job to me, I lose interest in it. Obviously not everyone is like me, but when you're doing something for fun, making it seem like work just ruins it. "Oh make your mod compatible with this mod!" ... well like he said, why would he do that if he doesn't get any enjoyment out of the other mod himself? Not everyone is like that, I admit, but you can't just expect everyone will care to do that. Especially after 900+ pages of asking and the answer is still the same.
Awww... so nice to know that you're still thinking of me, even when I haven't beeen around here for so long.
Honestly, I've been so busy with IC/RP/BC for 1.1 that I hadn't kept tabs on anything else. Nothin' but love to ya, baby! :laugh.gif:

If you're really interested, start here:
Yeah, that's more or less what I was looking for. I'm watching them in order right now, but can you tell me which one actually has you explaining why you don't want your mod in other packs?
Technic can suck my hairy left nut. It started as an unauthorized mod-pack intended to spite mod-authors created by a bunch of whiny brats, and that's what it will always remain in my mind.
While it certainly seems like that's at least not the case anymore (the people in the IRC, including KakerMix, helped me a lot with getting extra, non-technic mods working with it and it looks like they ask for permission before including a mod), it's your opinion, and I'll respect that.

Ah! Thanks for answering that question. We have an ongoing thread on the BTW forums about the nature of your particular dysfunction. My personal theory was "Eloraam fan-boy". Thanks for confirming :smile.gif:
Actually, I'm primarily an IndustrialCraft fanboy. I just like how Eloraam deals with people who don't like her. If I were dysfunctional... I'd be playing BTW.

Just to spite you.
Depends whether a Breeding Harness was in use.

Most epic response I've ever read. Ever. lol
