Mikee, you mentioned on YT that every item in OpenBlocks can be turned off, how exactly? At that time I had my config open, but unless you can do something with ID's, I don't see a way...
For instance, how do I remove all paint related stuff?
I swear I have seen a version of tho mod ages ago. I adore it! Seriously one of the best mods I have ever seen, PLEASE add more things to this over time! One of my top 10 mods!
There's a 1.5.2, and snapshots of this 1.6.x version have always been available. Just now I feel confident its stable enough to release officially!
