Thaumcraft compability/crossover

[stringburka 72]

Is there any possibility of using TFC with Thaumcraft? I went away from TFC some time ago to play tech mods for a while, but some of the tech mods have moved into a more hands-on design and I got interested in that again. Watched the b77 update and was intrigued, haven't really played heavily since like b62 or something...

 

But I still sometimes feel TFC is a bit too limited for me, I like to be able to do a bit more. One mod I feel would fit quite well with TFC and that I enjoy is Thaumcraft, which is kind of half-way between a tech mod and a hands-on mod, though "magicky" in feel.

 

But since it relies heavily on vanilla and mod metals, and I'm unsure how TFC works in relation to the ore dictionary, do you know if it's possible to get them to work together? :3

Don't forget you can always use the search function as this has been discussed several times. I haven't tested it with the current build but yes it was possible in past builds. It can be a bit tricky though as world gen isn't possible. You have to use another mod like Custom Stuff or Custom NPCs to add recipes to convert TFC items into TC items. Balancing it is a challenge but if you're creative you can create a use for those currently useless minerals and gems. Plus TFC items and blocks don't have aspects making it even more tricky. So yes it's possible but it's a lot of work.

Ah, thanks. Probably a bit too much work for me then :/ Thanks anyway!

You can also use Minetweaker with Modtweaker to do this. I have already begun to work on this for the next update for my pack, I'll also create a thread and post the scripts there (when they are done, of course, it is a slow very slow process).

If you don't know about it yet. Minetweaker recipe manager is a very helpful. It is a bit frustrating at times and still fairly limited, but it is still a work in progress. I use it to setup things which I then tweak and replicate manually. Also learning to use /mt hand to get unlocalized ID and copy it to clipboard saved me a lot of time.
