6.08.02:
[NOTE] The Default Config Pack updated to fix Enviromines noncompliance to Case Sensitive Filesystems.
[COMPAT] Lycanites and Atum

GT6 Weapons made of Betweenlands Materials will no longer be damagecapped or auto-nerfed in the Betweenlands.
Weedwood Barrels can now also protect carried Liquids from rotting in the Betweenlands.
[COMPAT] The Aether
Skyroot is now a dedicated Wood Type similar to Weedwood.
Small Ores now generate in it. Note that none of the Sulfur containing Small Ores are up there.
Small Rocks now generate properly, as opposed to having the Default Overworld ones. The probability of finding a Meteorite is larger up there.

The GT Forums are available at This Domain now. Miniature Aether Portals are now available!

6.08.03:
[COMPAT] Several Aether related things got adjusted and oredicted. Sadly I cannot get the Treecapitation working for Skyroot Trees. Same Issue as IC2 Rubber Trees, ancient never updated drop code.
[COMPAT] Skyroot and Weedwood Objects can now be recycled like Vanilla Stuff (Chests, Jukeboxes etc).
[CHANGED] Vanilla Iron Ore will now turn into a large amount of Hematite when crushed. No more cheaty Iron from Twilight Forest and such.

Oh interesting, so that is what the Patreon Post Image will become when there is no Screenshot.

Well then, I linked the Guide for the Earlygame Stuff on the Main Post now.

Another GregTech Update has been released!

Cue the fully automatic Changelog:
Screenshot
Completely overhauled the way GregTech is handling the Wood Types. There was just way too many overlaps thanks to literally every wood type being registered as the same Names. Also added Beams for Greatwood, Silverwood, Skyroot and Twilight Darkwood.

6.08.04:
[COMPAT] Aether
Enchanted Grass now works on GT6 Berry Bushes and doubles their Growth Speed.
Aether Enchanted Grass can now be harvested with a Spade, sadly it cannot work with regular Aether Grass…
I sadly wasn’t able to fix Branch Cutter, Saw or Treecapitation for Skyroot based Trees. Aether still uses antiquated Code from like 3 or 4 major MC Versions ago, and I do not want to use ASM.
[FIXED] MineFactoryReloadeds weird Loading Order Missing Element issue.
[ADDED]
New Wood Registry, so that it is easier to handle different Mods Wood Types without causing a Clusterfuck (and yeah I am currently fixing the Clusterfuck that is Wood Handling.
Slabs and Stairs are handled way better now in regards of Material Data and replacing their Crafting Recipes.
Stairs are now made with 3 Planks or 3 Slabs in an L Shape with a Saw in the remaining Corner, so you dont need a Crafting Table anymore, but you require a Saw now. Also you get the more logical amount of 4 Stairs for 3 Planks!
Forestry Willow Trees now have the same benefits in regards of Charcoal and Creosote, that GT6 Willow Trees have.
Binnies ExtraTrees Logs and Planks can now be used for GT6 Shelves, Panels and the likes.
Chisel Vanilla Wooden Planks now have way more Support for Recipes, so you don’t always have to unchisel them for use.
Thaumcraft Greatwood and Silverwood are now their own Wood Materials and have their own Wood Beam Types.
Aether Skyroot and Twilight Darkwood now have their own Beam Types. Also the other 3 common Twilight Logs debark into their corresponding Vanilla Type Beams now.
[ADDED] Berry Bushes can finally grow on Types of Dirt and Grass that aren’t vanilla.

And as always, the Patreon Post should follow up later today or somewhen tomorrow.

Just a tiny little update on why there is no Patreon Post yet. I wanted to announce the Git Repo once it is done, but a few tiny things are still missing for it to work properly, so it might take a bit. Hopefully just until tomorrow.

Gregorius · September 10, 2018, 3:59pm

And Patreon Post, because I dont expect things to be finished before next Weekend

Another GregTech Update has been released!

Cue the fully automatic Changelog:
Screenshot
GregTech-6 is going OpenSource! Let’s see how well this works out when I am actually there, and not replaced by people who have obviously no idea what they are doing!

6.09.00:
[NOTE] GregTech-6 is now OpenSource (LGPLv3) and on git.gregtech.overminddl1.com. Don’t worry, I will still be working on GT6 myself, this is just an upgrade. ;D
[NOTE] Some GT6 Addons like QwerTech or GT Weapons Works will need to be recompiled in order to work with this Version.
[BROKEN] IC2 Sounds are currently not available due to going OpenSource, and IC2 obviously not being OpenSource. (I had to copy their Sound Files to make shit work, because they clearly didn’t care to make things proper)
[BROKEN] WAILA is somehow no longer able to display the Name of my Blocks. I wonder if it is because the WAILA API is inside the new Dev Environment, because I never did WAILA Compatibility at all.
[IMPROVED] Performance in general. I kept one piece of old Code and that has wrecked a lot of Speed and RAM, but now it’s fixed.
[FIXED] Tons of minor Issues that required a massive amount of typing.
[FIXED] Treecapitation overall now also works when Aether is breaking it. Note, that this has nothing to do with the seperate Issue that Aether Trees cant be Treecapitated.
[ADDED] My own selfmade Wrench and Screwdriver Sounds.

And as always, the Patreon Post should follow up later today or somewhen tomorrow.

6.09.01:
[NOTE]
A bunch of Dev Environment Issues have been fixed, but there still is some of them open.
I’m kinda stuck a little because I usually work after I wake up, while OvermindDL1 fixes up Dev things right before I go to Bed. (timezones and shit)
And I need certain things to be fixed before I can work properly again, otherwise I am kinda mentally blocked.
[FIXED] WAILA Block Names.
[FIXED] Wood Registry messing up way to much. Lots of Recipes did not work because of it.
[CHANGED] Drains now produce 100 times more Water while it is raining.
[CHANGED] Railcraft Wooden Ties can now be made by bathing single already Treated Slabs (either IE or GT) in Creosote a second time. This is also way more efficient now, and allows for making Wooden Slabs into Treated Slabs.
[ADDED] Erebus Wood to the Wood Registry
[ADDED] Twilight Magical Wood to the Wood Registry, but I gave it only Vanilla Beams, because those 4 Trees are really uncommon and not worth an extra Beam and Plank Block.
[ADDED] Item and Fluid Barrels made of Shimmerwood, Greatwood and Silverwood.

Another GregTech Update has been released!

Cue the fully automatic Changelog:
Screenshot
New Path Blocks and more Compat Stuff. The Path Blocks give a small movement Speed increase when walking on them, it’s less than Asphalt though. And the Paths are more robust than Et Futurums variant.

6.09.03:
[COMPAT] Botanias Paint Slinger Lens works for painting GT6 TileEntities now.
[COMPAT] Trees from Biomes o’Plenty and the Sakura Tree from the BambooMod are now Supported via the Wood Registry, and Sakura Planks can be used for Shelves and such now.
[FIXED] Dynamic Trees’s Trees wont be Treecapitated twice anymore, so the harvesting slowdown from my end is removed.
[FIXED] Crafting Table Recipe from Better Beginnings did not use the OreDict Wooden Planks, so only the 6 vanilla ones were usable.
[FIXED] A few Recipes.
[CHANGED] The Wrench and Screwdriver Sounds a little regarding Tempo, Pitch and Echo.
[CHANGED] Liquid/Gas Burning Boxes now have a 25 tick cooldown whenever they actually run out of Fuel (but not when turned off any other way). During that Cooldown they will automatically ignite themselves whenever new Fuel is added, even if the Fuel is a different Type.
[CHANGED] Villager Zombies can now also drop Material Dictionaries.
[CHANGED] In addition to Crowbars you can now also use Screwdrivers to open GT6 Crates (also it’s less durability eating). Not only that but now you also get the empty Crate back from this. (empty crates didnt exist when I originally made it, so guess why I forgot about it)
[ADDED] A way to turn Gravitite Gems and Dust into Enchanted Gravitite using the Injector. Later its gonna be a Magic Infuser instead of the Injector.
[ADDED] Skyroot Item and Fluid Barrels, they are just like Treated Wood Barrels in their Stats.
[ADDED] Draconium, Thaumium, Manasteel, Gaia and Syrmorite Drums. Also lots of Capsule Cell Container Materials aswell.
[ADDED] More Material Variety for Item and Fluid Pipes, including Fan Favourites such as the “Fake Osmium” Item Pipe made from Mekanism Osmium.
[ADDED]
Grass Paths like Et Futurum, but better and compatible with Biomes o’ Plenty and Aether.
They also increase the Walk speed slightly (less than Asphalt!) and dont get destroyed when you place an opaque Block ontop of them.
Old Et Futurum Grass Paths will turn into GT6 ones once you walk over them, right before the walk speed calculations, so you also get the minimal movement speed bonus from converting them.
Mobs can also not spawn on these Paths.
