So rather tan take a long breather I decided to mod starbound to hell and back.

Now I'm just debating which big mod to use.

Industrialization, or new horizons.

I don't suppose anyone has used both and could give some feedback?

I could try both but making two characters and getting far enough to give both a proper go would be a pain/annoying.

I'm assuming of course they're incompatible. Pretty sure they are since both change so much but I could be wrong....

With the merge system, they don't have to be incompatible.  Me I like Industrialization, as once you get the Macerator, your ore production goes through the roof.  I also use Homestruck, which allows you to build all of the blocks with appropriate materials, so you don't have to rip apart dungeons to build a base.

Am I correct to assume that industrialization is shaping up to be industrialcraft but for starbound?

If it seems like Industrialization is shaping up to be IC2 for Starbound, that's because that's what the author set out to recreate.

Just don't expect anything post-Greg or anything from any other mods.

[Twi]

post-Greg

And thus the flame war commences. :v

loljk

[Mephisto]

Not trying to start a flame war, just repeating what the mod author has explicitly stated in his mod's thread.

So...any bets on how long it will be before every official update is met with cries of "X MOD DID IT FIRST!!1 DEV IS STEALER!!!!1!!1!"? You know it will happen eventually if Minecraft is any example

[Darkmere]

Yeah, there's already been 4 mods or so officially folded into the game because the devs liked them (asteroid fields, skyrails, the turrets, I forget the other one), and they've asked at least one guy for permission to use his apocalyptic bunker as a in-game minidungeon. They're not bashful about taking cool stuff, as long as the original author seems fine with it.

[dennislp3]

Yeah they blatently put it in the patch log which I think is cool

Bought this earlier, sadly I'm having trouble getting it to run properly.
I can play for a while with no issues, decent framerate and fluid animations, then it will crash (spectacularly) and refuse to load that character again. Quite likely the problems originate from my laptop, but there's not a lot I can do about that.

Gonna sleep off those two BSoDs and try again later.

[Aklyon]

Is your laptop overheating, or similar problems?

[Kaitol]

So. New horizons is buggy as hell right now. Choices made for me! Hooray!

[rabidgam3r]

Which servers are working?

[Aklyon]

Mine is, but I'll be away so it might crash unnoticed. Eitherway it should be up now.

[Iceblaster]

Fun. Time to see how much of my stuff is in my evil lair hehe.

I don't want to sound like a generalizer here, but is it me or is most of the Starbound community furries?

Most? Probably not. A large and very vocal minority? You better believe it.
