IMO Tekkit just adds too much, there's a hell of a lot to learn and know and I just want to jump on and simply build stuff, that's it, not find this to craft this which lets you get this to craft this and then use that to get this and THEN you can make a crafting table.

I agree. You finally get the hang of Tekkit and then they release another major version change. Which completely changes it :laugh:

I've mentioned this in the past. While tekkit has got a lot better.

You need a pretty hefty server still to handle tekkit.

I'm running a Tekkit Server in a virtual machine, its actually not that bad.

 

There is a lot to learn but that's part of the fun.

Yup, I liked playing Tekkit a while back on my own server. There is a lot to learn sure, but if you want to just play vanilla, you can easily just ignore all the Tekkit parts.

has tekkit become good again? honest question. I haven't played tekkit since back in the 1.4.x days before they got in trouble with a bunch of the mod authors & had to remove a bunch of mods

 

Direwolf20 & Yogscast Complete are my go to packs as of late

I've watched the Yogscast play their pack, and some of it is silly complicated, and there is way too much in it for me.

that's kind of why i like it though. it has a little something for everyone and still manages to blend the mods well. and I like the challenge in learning some of the more complicated mods

Tekkit is still complicated to begin with. Especially as IC2 is gone. Once you find the alternatives then you get used to it.

Tekkit Lite is still my favourite.

In case anyone's interested the Forge team have just released a dev build for 1.7.10-pre-4.

 

http://files.minecraftforge.net/minecraftforge/prerelease

 

The claim is that most 1.7.2 forge mods should work, with caveats. So far the only one that I use that seems to work 100% is the Monster Spawn Highlighter. Damage Indicator semi works (shows hit points, but not the creature damage/health level). Not found a map mod that works either.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
