About this project

What does VGT Expansion add?

Warning: This mod is currently in early beta, and not 100% finished or finalized (especially the very end game)! If you encounter anything that points to it, please let me know over on GitHub.

VGT Expansion is a port/rewrite of gt4 and somewhat 2 using IC2 Classic and Vintage Gregtech as dependencies and a base. My goal is to port gt4 but not in the incomplete state greg left it in, which means there won't be 10 million different useless materials and items for example. Since this is a gt4 port, it therefore moderately changes some recipes to make them harder or force them through certain machines. That said, it also adds a couple misc nice things like more batteries and more fuel types from oil, as well as 4 crops. Currently this is actually very close to gt4 featureset, I'm currently working on implementng pipes, and then I might implement steam machines once the pipes are done, though a bit better then gt4 did them, I'm not really sure that I'll do the redstone blocks, depends on what I want to do after pipes and other stuff on my plate are done.

This is not created or maintained in any way by Greg(image doesn't specify this directly, but that's how he feels about most gregtech mods):
