You do not need a new config file at this time.
Just curious, maybe there's some process going on here I haven't heard about. Why is the information under the "Changelog" tab RE: Pam's HarvestCraft no longer important enough to warrant not including it in the pack? It's another worldgen-heavy mod that doesn't offer anything other than food options. It literally changes nothing about the game other than you now have an overabundance of things that can produce the "chomp-chomp" sound and the particle effect that happens when you eat. There's nothing special about most of the food, and if it crowds out mods that're actually useful like Botania, BoP, Natura, and others...I just don't see how it's any better than Metallurgy.

the way the mod works changes my biggest issue with it, which was full inventory of seeds when I just want wheat. they don't drop from grass anymore. you have to find them. and most of the other players like and want it so it's not a big deal since that change was made.
also the change log tab hasn't been updated in a while. I've been busy with school but I'm gonna do some work on it this weekend so it should be updated by then.Art is cool.-

Pams HarvestCraft:
Pros: Awesome, fun food options, including some that increase saturation, and others that fill lots of food for low effort. Pretty fruit trees that work with MFR fruit picker. Does not clutter inventory anymore. World gen is unobtrusive. More than a few people specifically asked about it several times and want it in the pack.
Cons: It's just food.
Metallurgy:
Pros: Pretty shinies! Unique armors. Platinum = TE shiny metal. Expanded metals for Tinker's construct. Cheap early game crusher.
Cons: Clutters the fuck out of the ore table. Disabling things fucks with other stuff. Does not handle oregen properly.
The pros in Metallurgy are solved by other mods. Unique artifacts adds things that can satisfy your need to collect stuff, and the effects you can find are more fun than a pretty ingot that does nothing more than sit in your ore chest. We have enough unique armors from other mods, that also add other effects on top of being different than Vanilla armors. Unique Artifacts also adds armors with new enchantments and different looks. TE has added shiny ore to world gen and with digiminer and Thaum cinnabar, among other solutions, shiny metal isn't, and never really was, a big issue. Tinker's has more than enough metals to satisfy what it's used for. AE grinder is one option for early crushing. Tinker's smeltery, now that you can create one as small as 1x1x1, can double ores and is relatively easy to get early on. There are other options as well but I can't think of them off the top of my head.
The pros in Pam's aren't really offered by anything else we have in the pack. The only thing that really comes close is BoP's apple trees. You know Natura's fruit bushes are a crock of shit. They help you survive early but they aren't a long term food solution. Even making them into berry medlies only fills a few food bars. The best thing about Natura's berries are the saturation aspect.
It no longer crowds the world gen. The author adjusted it a lot for 1.7.10 to address the kinds of complaints most people had about it in 1.6.4. You can't even really tell it's in the pack unless you come across a patch of food plants. Botania, BoP and Natura all have their place just fine.
(This is more for others than for M since I know he's just bitching at me about missing shinies You'll take your unique artifacts and you'll like it! ♥)Jangle and ESL!

I haven't had tons of time to do testing, so it's going pretty slowly. I'm doing SSP, and haven't reached any of the tech stuff yet.
- Iron seems a little more plentiful than before.
- Coal looks like it's seriously down from SP3. Maybe just unlucky though.
- Tin and copper are way down but that's to be expected with trying to limit oregen to one mod per ore.
- If tin and copper are really this scarce, then bronze will be a bottleneck. Not saying that's a bad thing, we need a bottleneck now and then. The plentiful amounts in SP3 were crazy so maybe it's just by comparison.
- Diamonds may be up slightly from SP3, or I might just be luckier this world.
- AE grinder is acceptable for early ore doubling, and the pain of having to stand there holding down the button is a good motivator to get some kind of power running.
- Was yellorite nerfed compared to SP3? I haven't found a single vein yet.

As a more controlled study, maybe I'll go NEI in a digiminer and find out the actual numbers. The sample sizes from strip mining may not be big enough to be accurate.Wanna play Minecraft with your ms friends? Check out the minecraft thread, or the channel on discord-

Uh, ok. I asked you what had changed since the information on that tab of the Doc and I wasn't bitching about anything. If there were changes made that made it no longer a shitty mod that's what I was asking about, since I obviously only have an opinion of the mod based on what I saw in SP3 or previous.
That said, my desire for Metallurgy isn't just to collect shiny things. It's not nearly as much random-useless-Ore as Pam's is/was random-useless-food. Besides that, I think it's odd to have a hierarchy list of ingots/tools/armor that's about 5 things long. Sue me for wanting other stuff with different options to break up the monotony of ZOMGEVERYTHINGMUSTBEMANYULLYN.-

You can't unless OP. I made Klaz and Dav OPs, so they OP others if they are around too. Being OP really can't break anything on the test server. There's no whitelist so I think it's fine.Jangle and ESL!

All of the dimensions work just fine (I obviously didn't test large amounts of Myst ages), but none of them crash the server.
I tried to test some blood magic stuff but I couldn't get the orb of testing to work, so if anyone can figure out something there I'd be very grateful.
Structures spawn correctly. I haven't found any bugs with any world gen structures and they seem to be rare enough to not intrude on building but common enough to not have to run a million blocks to find them.
Lucky blocks spawn correctly.
RogueLikes spawn differently according to biome, apparently. Found a nifty ice one.
Umm, let's see...
The RF Baubles mod works, but I'm not entirely surehowit works. I'll do some research and properly test it. Blocks dont crash the server though, so that's a start.
Botania stuff works, as expected.
Ludicrite is ludicrous, but it works.
TT works
TF works and is beautiful as always. All the bosses work (and hurt. ow.)
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, AE2 worksThere is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.
GTKAFuzzy! Come ask me questions.

Have set up a massive field for crops.
Am making about three stacks of bread per day or so, plus other stuff.
If you want food, please feel free to come to my house (coords will be added later) and take some.
I accept payment in ores or whatever, or take it for free if that's what you want.
If you decide to empty the field out, though, please replant what you take.
