Yes, this is redundant BUT i have to address it as us at Norgplay were able to run forestry with no issues at all, in 1.2.5, in smp, with most of the same mods as tekkit, excluding some minor mods, and including some other less stable mods.
I really want forestry back, mostly for the electrical engine, but also for SOME of the farming options, and obviously the bees!
I will now continue to explain why it doesn't work to just put the mod in and hope for all the best.
My admin was not clear if it was client or server side, but he basically said you have to make forge/modloader load industrialcraft BEFORE forestry. This does not happen naturally since the letter F comes before I, so all he did was to rename ic2.jar* to aic2.jar*, but i also belive this can be configured in forge itself, so that it loads before forestry.
I miss forestry and i sincerely hope this will be taken in to consideration, as i want my forestry back.
The thought that he updates it so often might be an issue for tekkit, but non the less it should be added.
