No Magical Seeds for My Cow

This blog was started as a journal for both my son and I and what we do in minecraft together. Unfortunately we haven't had time to both get on lately so its been solo work mostly but I hope to get us up and running on the ME^3 adventure mod soon™.

Anyhow, until then I've been running a custom mod pack using the 1.7.10 core and playing around a bit. Firstly I have fallen in love with Mekanism's Atomic Disassembler and Jet Pack...OMG. I'm also trying out Tinker's Construct again....I love the crafting tables but I'm not sure I like much more of the Mod.
Finally I've DLed the COH core mods including Thermal Expansion and Minefactory Reloaded. These are a very good set of mods that I'm excited about trying out. It's a shame that Magic Seeds seems to have lost its author as that is a great mod for peaceful non-Nether players like myself and goes so well with the farming in MFR. Oh well.

I also tried out EnderIO for a spell but its transition to 1.7.10 came with some radical changes to the crafting patterns that I'm not very fond of so unfortunately I had to drop it's lovely conduits and as COH has not yet implemented ducts for 1.7 I'm left using Mek's piping along with some from Extra Utilities.
Oh and Openblocks seems completely broken currently which really is a damn shame as it includes some really nice features like the sprinkler, construction block and sleeping bag. too bad that.

Looks like there may be hope for open blocks after all. =D
Also there is a laser mod I need to look into called Electromagnetic Coherence.
Oh and Big Reactors will probably be added in sooner rather than later as I try out the digital miner.

Fun stuff,
