9 years ago After doing a little digging, seems like Universal Electricity has been absorbed into Calclavia's upcoming Electrodynamics mod (repo), which depends on the NOVA wrapper. The page for Electrodynamics seems misleading since there seems to be no available release yet, but it certainly doesn't look like it'd be compatible with the old mods that depend on it. There is a legacy download page for the old mods, however it is _infested_ with popups and ads. Frankly, I'd like to avoid linking to such a mess. The page includes MFFS, Resonant Induction, and UE itself. A direct link to the last available build for each of those may be our best option.
- Universal Electricity Core 3.1.0.99
- MFFS 3.6.3.91
- Resonant Induction 0.3.1.259
That leaves Metal Mechanics, which does not have a working download link but still has a github repository up. I think it's worth keeping it, and perhaps I can persuade @Lycanite to provide a new direct download (or ask for permission to host one).

I've finally decided to remove most Calclavia's mods (sorry but I'm tired). I've already removed Resonant Induction, Modular Force Field System but the problem arised when I've faced with Universal Electricity. The problem is that this is a dependency if I'll remove it I need to remove every mod which are depend on it... or not? I don't know what to do now this is why I asking.
Current mod status: ICBM for 1.6.2 and lower -> check, downloads archived. Depends on UE. ICBM for 1.6.4 -> check, uploaded on curse. Latest version depends only on Forge. ICBM for 1.7.10 -> check. Resonant Engine both 1.6.4 and 1.7.10 -> check. Voltz Engine -> check. Modular Force Field System -> removed. Resonant Induction -> removed. Hawk's Machinery -> check, downloads archived. Depends on UE. Mad Science -> check, downloads on curse. Depends on UE. Metal Mechanics -> removed, downloads are dead. Minechem 1.6.4 -> check, downloads on curse. Depends on UE. Modular Powersuits 1.5.2 and lower -> check, downloads are up. Depends on UE.
Solution №1: Remove all mods that are depends on UE and all other references to UE (Simple solution).
Solution №2: Remove mods with dead links, remove UE (and refs in descs) but leave UE as unclickable dependency in alive mods dependencies. So, if you click on UE in Minechem deps for example nothing happens. (users have to search for UE themselves)
Solution №3: We should try to contact with someone from former UE Team and yell at them to reupload UE on curse if it still exist somewhere (it should exist in modpacks btw) and maybe some other UE mods. I suggest to ping DarkGuardsman if you @GrygrFlzr want to try this solution.
Personally I suggest at least try solution №3. If fail, I'll prefer solution №2.
