Hi, version 1.12.2

[angelshurikan]

My name is Angeliu'S Shurikan. I'm gonna try, update mod in 1.12.2.

[blaze-the-star]

How's your progress on this doing?

[sweetkid169]

I attempted to follow https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/8mf1ht/technical_how_to_manually_update_a_mod_commit/ but I don't think it would have worked... though not sure... Would love to see this updated.

I was almost done, then college happened. Anyway, I'm going on vacation this friday, and I've just bought a new computer, so I'm excited to play minecraft again, among other games. It's a Ryzen 2400g with no dedicated GPU, but it should perform deliciously well on minecraft, without me feeling like I'm wasting money with something much better than necessary xD

Anyway, IF I start playing minecraft again, this mod will be available for 1.12. That's a promise.

If angelshurikan finishes first though, we'll all be very grateful!

[sweetkid169]

You are a glorious individual. I do hope your able to do that. Keep us in the loop. Thanks.

[Psycho-Ray]

I'm down to 17 errors and 63 warnings. From hundreds.

Plus, some features related to recipes are currently missing, which means I'll have to release a beta first

Soon(tm)

any news on this? really wanna play PA on 1.12 cant find any dl links to it, if anyone have made a port yet

[Psycho-Ray]

I have messaged @Vanhal on his twitter a long time ago saying I had a 1.12 version, but he never replied ;-;

@zymex22 You can play with my unofficial release here: https://github.com/Psycho-Ray/ProgressiveAutomation/blob/master/ProgressiveAutomation-1.12.2-1.7.7.jar

Just click download, and play it on minecraft. What I do know is that it might be a pain to merge my version into @dshadowwolf version to use all the fixes from both, because I fixed a lot of things too =X

Edit: I didnd't really test that release, I just build it, and now I'm running to college, Tell me if it doesn't work, but it should

[zymex22]

@Psycho-Ray Thank you :D if there isnt any other news from @dshadowwolf or @Vanhal ill give yours a try =)

@dshadowwolf are your version ready / released yet? saw you posted a pull request.

[Psycho-Ray]

@zymex22 I mean to say I didn't know if I have compiled correctly. This version I uploaded is fully functional, and I have been playing with it for a few months.

I'm not sure what to do about @dshadowwolf version, tho. I did the 1.11, and now the 1.12 too, so I'm familiar with the code. It's not too hard to learn it tho, so I'm sure he did a good job. It's probably easier to just choose one, but it would be better to try and merge both.

What say you, @dshadowwolf?

[zymex22]

@Psycho-Ray @Psycho-Ray cant run yours version didnt set my self too much in it :D PB of crash report here: https://pastebin.com/jzmc8PTe i run a modified version of 1.12 FTB ultimate reloaded =)

[dshadowwolf]

The license that has covered PA since February 2015 (a variation of the TeamCoFH "Don't Be a Jerk" license) makes it so that I cannot, legally, release the fork that I have PR'd.

I have begun work (along with some other members of the MMD team) on a "spiritual successor", but this work means getting our support library (which currently lives inside BaseMetals) released in a fully standalone state.

Other than that... The PR I opened contains a fully functional port that removes any use of or dependence on RF in favor of the built-into-forge "Forge Energy" system. I'd offer downloads, but again, the license is rather clear that this is more of a "visible source" situation than a classic "open source" siutation - meaning I cannot fork and release.

See the license - This mod cannot be distributed on its own from any source unless given explicit permission. - at line 65 of the license. This means that, as Vanhal appears to be completely incommunicado, no fork or forward port can be distributed, as he is not responding to any requests for permission.

[zymex22]

thats sucks with all work done, and no way to release it =( thats a really nice early on mod, that really easy to get into without too much effort to learn it like industrial foregoing and such

@dshadowwolf i send you a pm on curseforge i have a question about the mod

[Psycho-Ray]

@dshadowwolf Oh well, should have read those things. Shame on me. By the way, could you elaborate a bit on your decision of not supporting RF anymore?

[Psycho-Ray]

@zymex22 how can I PM you? Maybe I can assist you somehow other than sending you the version I was using (why did I go through all the trouble of building a new one anyway? derp)

[dshadowwolf]

It supports RF in that RF actually does an FE interface internally, but... its actually that the mod is now "self contained" in its code-base - all it needs is Forge and it can be built and run with all the various pieces there and working. No need for any other mod to provide the power system.

[zymex22]

@Psycho-Ray i have send you an email

[Vanhal]

I'm still here. I've had the PR email in my inbox to remind me to pull it and compile it. I have some time over the weekend to have a look into this and get it going.

[zymex22]

@Vanhal thank you! :D nice to see you back! :D cant wait to play this mod again, would be nice if i can do it in this weekend :D

and thanks to @Psycho-Ray and @dshadowwolf for your work :D

[dshadowwolf]

@Vanhal has accepted PR #362 and the build is now available on CurseForge. This issue can be closed.
