1.7.10 Information (1.7.10 is no longer supported)
Magneticraft is a mod for those looking for more realistic approach to machines and factories.
This mod introduces two types of energy: Electricity and Heat, as well as many machines producing them, converting them into each other and using them for things such as mining, ore processing or oil processing.
Electricity and Heat can be produced by different sources, including wind, solid fuel, oil, solar panels and others.
Electricity can also be generated from Thermal Expansion RF, RailCraft Charge or IndustrialCraft2 EU and can be converted into RF.

It is a great mod but I wanted to know if the mod is discontinued or will continue to update
In reply to adolfocracker:
It may eventually get ported to 1.14/1.15 but definitely not soon. I'm working on other projects.
In reply to cout970:
Great,Thanks for response me
good mod :)
does this play well with immersive engineering?
like, how could I balance the two out
I am having a problem where the conveyor belts only animate when the item is held or visible in the inventory or hot bar. When this is not the case they are completely stationary and it is quite irritating, could anyone help me with this?
In reply to thedoctorofquantum:
I had this bug reported months ago, but I'm still unable to reproduce it, do you have optifine or any other performance improver mod?
In reply to cout970:
Yes I do have optifine installed, as well as foamfix, betterfps and mods of that sort. However I have seen this bug occur without those mods installed so I guess I might have to look on the github perhaps.
In reply to cout970:
I have this issue in my Manufactio Mod pack. No Optifine, but includes FoamFix and VanillaFix.
In reply to golrith:
I have no idea why it happens, I'm just rendering a normal minecraft sprite for the conveyor belt, which vanilla updates every tick to use the next texture in the animation.
Can you try to reload models and textures with F3 + T and see if changes the behavior?
In reply to cout970:
Sorry I haven't replied to you sooner cout but I think have identified the rendering issue with the belts. I am confident that the mod 'VanillaFix' is the cause or at least the cause within the modpack I am currently constructing. This has probably been reported already but I thought I might just notify you anyway just in case this information is useful and will hopefully help you fix the issue.
Yours truly,
Quantum
P.S: Lol I love this mod by the way!
In reply to thedoctorofquantum:
Thank you so much, VanillaFix seems to have an option to disable "texture optimizations" and that fixes the issue (I haven't tested it but I looked at the issue tracker of VanillaFix).
Currently I'm updating the mod to 1.14
In reply to cout970:
Oh wow really, I don't see any other tech mods updating to 1.14 as far as I am concerned, unless you know otherwise you seem to be the only one. I wasn't aware of that vanilla fix could disable that feature I guess that I just didn't see it. Also if you don't mind me asking, are you planning to allow for Magneticraft machines and power generators to use RF conduits, wire connectors and the like as it would be quite useful to be able to use them when connecting machines. Anyway good luck on porting the mod to the 1.14. I don't know about you but I have a feeling 1.14 may be the new 1.12 for modding, and I am very exited!
In reply to thedoctorofquantum:
I know a few mods that are getting ported: refined storage, industrial foregoing, etc. I started last week and I had around 3000 compile errors, after 2 days of work I have around 900, Once I get the mod compiling I still have to fix all logical errors that are not checked and that are only found by playing a lot. I expect the mod to be fully ported in about 1-2 months, so the sooner I start the sooner it gets done.
I'm not sure if 1.14 will become the new 1.12, the performance is pretty bad and 1.15 will come very soon, I have more hope in 1.15, and porting to 1.14 will make porting to 1.15 easier.
In reply to cout970:
Well good luck and I will be happy to see this mod in 1.14 and I hope it will turn out successfully.
Would it be possible to add Redstone Control to the inserters for 1.12.2 version?
In reply to golrith:
I see it very unlikely.
How to make steel?!!
In reply to shockinglegoabc1:
Currently there is no way to make steel in the mod, but you can use steel from other mods.
I'd love to have a config option for Better With Mods compatibility with Hardcore Ores. Iron ore smelts into iron nuggets. Iron chunks smelt into iron ingots. It'd be nice to be able to further crush the chunks to dust or have chunks smelt into nuggets.
