tekkit 1.6.2?

[static1234567]

hey, i dont post much or really at all on the forums but i was wondering when tekkit will be 1.6.2? since i think only TE needed updating and it just recently updated. so is there anything else holding it back?

[dwwojcik]

I can't think of anything holding it back. It's only a matter of time, I'm sure.

[static1234567]

well thats good, i cant wait to make my redstone flux and fly to mars!

[dwwojcik]

Neither can I! :D

[static1234567]

um, again sorry for sounding noobish other than the big mods that change like TE,AE, and galacticraft what other mods get big overhauls?

[jakalth]

BC has the new system implemented. It's actually better then we could of hoped for. Far more stable in 1.6.2/1.6.4 then it even is now. The pipes actually work better if that is believable. BC conductive pipes are completely viable and useful for power systems again.

Yea i have been pulling my hair out when i saw Thermal Expansion had just went into open beta and was being launched tomorrow, I can not wait to get back into Tekkit along with a number of my friends who very much enjoyed everything it had to offer. Going to be a exciting weekend if it gets tossed together soon.

[static1234567]

wait its being launched tommorow?! i help maintain a tekkit server and were just on edge waiting for 1.6.2 because its exciting. so ya best of luck to all new players and veteran's alike on learning all the new things. XD

[dwwojcik]

Thermal Expansion 3.0 is launching tomorrow, not Tekkit 1.6. (afaik )

[static1234567]

noooo! now im sad... we need it tonight since i really really want to use AE spacial pylons..

[Neowulf]

Thermal expansion is being launched, not Tekkit. TE was just the last major mod to update, though MFR does not have an official 1.6 update yet either.

[Alucardlb]

Sorry about that confusion with my post, but yea i ment Thermal Expansion was being updated tomorrow not that tekkit was.

[static1234567]

well it needs to :P

I thought Skyboy's version is an official version. That's what I've found.

[static1234567]

well there we go! everything good, now we need just need the update.

[Alucardlb]

yea i really cant wait for this update, been wanting to get back into space and see something other than just the moon.

[static1234567]

well ya, like 3 headed creepers? and fixes to the sealers? those would and will be amazing

[Alucardlb]

the sealers working would be nice, more or less the people i play with would just love the space aspect of it being more fleshed out, im really interested in the Solar panels tho, i tend to setup large computer systems and the power drain can get a bit insane over time. In the past i ended up with 150-200 magmatic engines running and i would end up drainning the neather of lava or having to endlessly mess around with mystcraft to find a lava world and that would just end up lagging the server to death for everyone else.

[static1234567]

yo aluc you should have switched to bio the most OP system ever. but ya on the server i maintain i have one guy who is praying for the update since he reeeeeaaaaly wants solar panels.. and that magmatics and bio wont work next update since redstone flux will be the new power system. quarrys can run off it and all the machines run off it pretty much

[Alucardlb]

A friend of mine had her whole base running off biofuel only problem is it was very clear to all of us that the auto planting and 50 plus cows she had crammed into a pen for the fertilizer was causing the server to lag more than the lava farms.

[Alucardlb]

we more or less banned use of the minefactory stuff after learning how much it seems to lag the server, so as it stands now its lava pumps for everyone

[static1234567]

yaaaaa but hey they work amazingly but sadly we will now run off redstone flux and have tons of liquid coal

[Alucardlb]

Yea its nice that coal will play somewhat of a role in endgame now, last time i played i had near 10k sitting in my comp >_> just give me something to waste redstone on and ill be in heaven.

[static1234567]

oh trust me... start stacking up redstone energy cell and then you have a waste

I thought Skyboy's version is an official version. That's what I've found.

I don't see anything from powercrystals turning it over to skyboy. Last time he took off and left it to someone else there was an actual handoff.

Now that doesn't mean skyboy can't or anything. It just means we have no idea if PC is working on his own 1.6 update in silence and we'll end up with two different versions for 1.6.
