The Painter is good for painting CF blocks too. If you're not sure which color scheme you want it's nice to be able to rapidly switch between colors on a block to see how different patterns look or colors match, without having to destroy or replace a block. Is the new basalt as blast resistant as the old stuff? It or CF made me feel a bit safer when spawning ghasts and charged creepers. Also, why the hate for solar panels? They were easy to move and use. I liked having a couple to throw up when I wanted to test a new machine or new setup in some far-flung corner of the castle. It sounds like a Tesseract is the alternative to this? Or is there something better if you want a small, easily placed power-source to test an isolated system or machine? According to this I could get flight abilities with power armor. To anyone who used jetpacks extensively and has used this armor, do you like the armor as much as the jetpack?

Is there anything that replaces IC2's crossbred crops? A friend and I just started on that in Tekkit Lite.

Ah, pity, I was hoping that wouldn't be the case. But thank you! I'm glad to have a concrete answer. Actually... losing IC DOES stink a little. It was aerial ghast battles with a jet-pack that first convinced me that mods really could make MC better. Nothing beats getting up close and personal to introduce the sharp end of a sword to one of those aggravating little griefers. It looks like we'd be able to rebuild a good deal of our ore processing system though, and apparently I'd be able to build some sort of suit to regain my flight abilities. I think those are the two things that would be most important to me. Hm... no replacement solar panels though. Now a new question. Do any of you have a preferred guide or tutorial on transferring worlds? I'm not sure my friend would want to, but perhaps we could make a clone of our world and try to transfer it to the new Tekkit to test it out. I see several guides and threads but many seem to assume prior knowledge of something else so I don't know where to start. Would you recommend learning how to use MCEdit (which a lot, but not all, of these mention) as a starting point?

Hello everyone, I have a question that I cannot find the answer to. Has Tekkit Lite been abandoned? I ask because this page mentions a "new Tekkit". I cannot tell if that one is meant to replace Lite, or if it is just announcing that a new one is available. I note that the wiki mentions an update for 1.4.7 being the last update of 1.4.7, but not the last ever. So I'm not quite sure how to interpret the combined information. I ask because a friend and I are playing Lite with one mod added and Mystcraft (which was causing conflicts) removed. The extra mod has some problems in 1.4.7 that are a wee bit sad. If Lite has not been abandoned then we'll simply put our dinosaur eggs in storage (the added mod is Fossils and Archeology) until the day Lite is updated. At that point we'll be able to update Fossils to its more stable version. However, if Lite has been abandoned then it makes sense for us to start looking at some of the other modpacks that have already or will someday update to at least 1.5.2 so that we will eventually be able to use our dinosaurs properly again. If it has been abandoned, is there a list somewhere of which of the main modpacks have been abandoned and which will eventually, someday, update? I know Classic is no longer updated, but that's the extent of my knowledge on the subject. Thank you all, and sorry for the long post. Just want to make sure the next Jawceline doesn't disappear.
