Don't think you can actually transmute to smooth stone anymore, but it's the same idea.. also, there's many crafting recipes to upgrade materials all the way up to diamonds (and downgrade), some for smelting, dyes, colored wool, etc. Not to mention portable crafting.. I wouldn't call that no functionality lol.
I had that happen, too, Myschief, the first time I went in through the portal to the tropics, but in the 1.3.2 version. Didn't happen again, though.
For the person noting that Tropicraft stuff is appearing in the overworld, this is a config setting. You can turn it off there... it's what I do before I start a new world with Tropicraft installed. Not sure why it's on by default, but there you go.
Finished v1 insanity mode last night, finally. =P The time isn't worth mentioning, thanks to saving the bees for near-last and lots of afk time, but it was a fun ride heh. V2 is all set up and ready to go...
