  1. Nerox says:

    245 comments on the last blog entry is quite alot, I agree lol.

    • Bluehorazon says:

      Yet only some comments about 1.0, most posts centered around further IC2-development and some mod-combatibility things, mainly with RP2.

  2. ivesen says:

    well i still keep waiting for it to be updated, but i haven’t asked about it. also i agree with Nerox.

    ps: please tell me your not actually gonna add all the stuff you thound interesting in the last post.

  3. Killra says:

    so i guess you wont give us an status update.
    Well if you don’t think that you have the time just let it be

    • Nick says:

      Well he gave a status update in the last blog post:

      “Alblaka says:
      December 16, 2011 at 08:18
      A raw version is ported to 1.0, but we have a couple of serious crashing issues that need to be fixed before we can release it.”

    • SirCB85 says:

      So he should give up the mod, a project he and his team are working on in their spare time, maybe even for fun, just because they cant commit to it 24/7 and give you an exact date for when they´ll be finished with fixing things they don´t know off yet how long it will take?
      Maybe if you don´t have the patience, let it be.

      • Killra says:

        I meant let it be we don’t need a status update. but if he for some reason would give up on the mod it’s still he’s call

        • ivesen says:

          you just provoked a disturbing thought. alife without INDUSTRIALCRAFT2 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
          seriously such a great mod i wish i knew how to use java that would be awesome right now 😛 but i at least know how to use mcp and i guess that is enough for now.

  4. DGardener says:

    You know that there will always be people who don’t care even if the information is right in front of them. They will always complain.
    Just take this as a proof of how great your mod is 😛
    “take your time, hurry up”!

  5. MrJohnnZ says:

    The realise date will be “when it’s ready” not before.

    Keep up the good work man!

  6. Christian Bowlby says:

    As long as this mod works with redpower and buildcarft I dont care how long it takes

  7. DanielPSP says:

    I think your team and you should instead of working on this mod create an automatic engine that searches for post’s asking about updates for the mod, suggestions, add-ons and such… hehe.
    I like the work you are doing within this mod, take your time, celebrate christmas and the new year with your friends and your families, please do not spend time on this mod at this christmas. I don’t think you have planned that, just wanted you to know… hehe 🙂
    Anyway, happy christmas and a new year!

  8. Sir Pickles says:

    Hmmmm……

    Wait, I know what your doing! This is a surprise Christmas present! Updating to 1.0!

    Your just saying all this so we won’t expect it to surprise us! I figured it out!

  9. Michael says:

    An ore-only pre-release would do wonders, but it sounds like we’re close enough to start holding our breaths again…

    • Sir Pickles says:

      He’s secretly planning to release at Christmas. That’s the logical conclusion.

      Well, time to kick ass and chew bubble gum…..and I’m all out of gum…..

    • Bluehorazon says:

      I started with RP2 and BC only. A lack of uranium near my actual base isn’t that problematic. Normally I disable RP2-Ores (Copper and Tin atleast), because RP2 and IC2 means way more copper and tin as you can ever smelt.

  10. Halje says:

    Seriously people are still asking… Just do something else in the mean time and before you know it Alblaka and his team will have it done.

  11. Direwolf20 says:

    Take your time Alblaka — all your REAL fans are patient.

    Thank you,

    -Direwolf

  12. Stay4 says:

    Keep doing what your doing, when the update comes it comes, thanks for all your hard work on it. 1.337 has been a blast so far so no complaints here.

  13. GrandKaiser says:

    Keep up the good work Alblaka and team. I say port it to 1.0, then take a nice Christmas holiday. Don’t even think about IC2. Just relax, spend time with loved ones and enjoy your well deserved vacation. But first port it!!! (I need that bore-ing machine RP made possible! Imma make a subway system using your lights and minefactories rails 😀 )

  14. raa1337 says:

    It’ll be out on the 17th. Totally.

    Totally. Buggy, but totally.

  15. Mr. Omega says:

    Figured I might as well as drop in on this one.

    Al, we all love your work, IC2 is one of the best mods I have seen since I started WAYYYY back in Alpha. If the whiners that can’t take a hint and shut their yaps, then find some earplugs or something and drown them out, either that or develop a script that trawls this blog and the forums, with some heavy parameters to ensure no mistakes, and delete the posts asking about the release without reading the rules.

    Al, we’re all behind you with this. And if I do say so, you and the rest of the devs have blessed the Minecraft community with this amazing mod.

    • Starhero says:

      *crys* It’s so true. I can’t imaging MC with out IC. Hence why I smash my F5 on this site every few hours.

    • Webmilio says:

      Sooo true. I can’t really play without it. As soon that I had the 1.0.1 version, I rushed to search for updated mods.

      But I didn’t really had the choice to update, (I know I had) because so much mods were updated with new stuff… So I’m trying to simulate the base functions with RedPower 2 but… not the same. Both mods have their resemblance, but they are different in quite a lot of ways.

      Of course we would (well I would) like to spam you with 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 comments telling you to go faster, but I know how it can be hard to update stuff, how many migraines you can get and just get soooo frustrated when you are trying to fix something by making it worst, cause you aren’t looking at the right thing.

      So as the guy said, make it as best as you can but don’t rush. The more time you will take, the more exciting the update will be. Of course some fake fans are just gonna give up and turn their back on you, but a lot will continue to support you.

      Good luck 😉

  16. Beer says:

    I’m just excited about luminators.

  17. Xagroth says:

    Well, I can cover the needs of some very useful stuff from IC2 with some items from Equivalent Exchange, but of course it’s not the same (I miss my solar panels 🙁 ). My only “want” in the new version would be about the number of Item ID’s, because after installing some more mods than I’m used to (and being unable to make work the Wireless Redstone mod), I only have 49 Item ID’s left! ^^U
    Aside from that, well, not only it’s Alblaka’s mod, he also has proven time and again that he can make really good additions to his mod, and that he cares for IC2’s fanbase. So I can have patience (or even wait for MC 1.0.1 to be out XDDD).

    • Alblaka says:

      You managed to exaust the 32000 Item IDs down to 49? Wth…

      • Loko says:

        I think he meant block id lol

      • PirateAE says:

        More likley its block ids than item ids i peronaly have only 62 block ids left

        • Xagroth says:

          Yeah, my bad ^^U
          Block IDs left: 49
          Item ID’s left: 31521
          Sprite IDs left: 7

          Seems like I will have to remove some mods to make space for IC2 XDDD.

          By the way, were can I check the amount of ID’s the mod takes (wiki, documentation, etc…)?

          • Marc010 says:

            I dont think you´ll have a problem when you install ic², it dont take so many block ids
            oh and forge supports unlimited sprite ids = no problem
            and something you may already noticed, ic² dont need 31521 item ids 😀

  18. Abuelo says:

    “1.0 Release could be coming up soon, get your Ironized F5 keys out.

    – Posted on 12.17.2011
    at 01:25:08 (GMT+1) -”

    Wow, I’ll give serious damage to my F5 key.

  19. turbeauke says:

    My F5 key isn’t ironed, it’s diamoned!

  20. Nick says:

    When Chuck Norris pressed the F5 button ingame IC2 1.0 was already installed.

  21. Stacey says:

    I think people got to take a Chill Pill, for REAL. Take all time you like, Fix, ADD , delete. make it way you like, release when You know it READY . 🙂 True fan will wait, not bug. I’m sure you won’t read this, But as a Loyal FAN. I can’t wait to see any new improvements and COOL stuff.Only Mod I got hook-on, Made 3 world, since 1 wasn’t enough. Have FUN and Delete the spam, You have a Life, enjoy it.

    • Cpx says:

      Meh about new stuff! As long as old stuff works in 1.0.0 im good to go, i don’t really care much about new stuff just yet, only hope adding new stuff wont be priority over 1.0.0 release, since it’s quite complicated and all.

    • Bluehorazon says:

      Actually I used the time to find a world-seed without tons of RP-rubbertrees all around me *g*

      Still I haven’t found a really good one (I just use a random number and already managed to get the same world twice^^ althoug not in a row).

      I also already put the note on my screen to disable RP Ores because IC2 and RP makes you drown in copper *g*

  22. Dragoone says:

    well it took me a few days, a water tower the size of the empire state building and a lot of work but i now have the ultimate f5 key….a QUANTUM F5 key with added lapotron crystals!

  23. Lockerd says:

    I saw the Bug/Support button on the right hand side and thought it ment to bug Al……boy was I wrong. I am too new to IC to be any bother but I know what a pain it is to release a buggy mod when I could have taken the time to repair it and not have to worry about patching. Take your time Al, even though I cant hold my excitement

  24. Yuriy says:

    Alblaka,
    I’ve been holding off asking about the update for weeks now and I would just like to thank you for putting so much time and effort into this mod (and posting updates and engaging the community) as it’s one that I really enjoy playing. I can’t wait for 1.0 SMP of this to go live so my girl and we can fiddle with a nuclear reactor and hopefully not leave a smoldering crater in the world. Keep up the great work and I hope that you get a respite when it’s over to enjoy the holidays (or just some time off).

  25. Dragoone says:

    uhh…AL?

    when you say “soon” is that in hours or days?

    • RandomBK says:

      well, he did say “1.0 Release COULD be coming up soon”. It could still be a fair bit from being stable enough to release. Just go play some skyrim, and before you know it, it’ll be out.

    • Wikid0 says:

      Well he did say “Could be soon” I was looking more at the “could be” part of that statement. Either way I have my world all set up and have been stocking up on mats for the release though Uranium might be the only problem.

    • Bluehorazon says:

      I guess he created a new unit of time. And 1.0 is released in some what ever he calls it.

      Maybe he has a pact with logitech and other manufactures of keyboards and just wrote it down to increase their profit^^

    • Veldurn says:

      Silly, it’s in Valve Time.

  26. MorganIsCewl says:

    It’s not my F5 key that’s going to get broken, it’s my I key…

  27. Wikid0 says:

    Hes a programmer, I would much rather him take his time and get it done right then just get it done. I know how it goes I have to give the same speech to my boss that expects everything right away and perfect. So yea hes got his own unit of time because hes good and wants to make good code, and I will gladly sit here and mash my F5 =D

  28. Drocpir says:

    *removes F5 key with a knife, applies redstone….* Dang still don’t work… whats the recipe for refresh?

  29. james says:

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
    WATCHED SOOOOOOOOOO MANY YOGCAST CLIPS ABOUT IT AND WANTED IT SOOO BAD…….

    MIGHT JUST HAVE TO DUALBOOT WINDOWS AND GET IT FOR 1.7 :'(

    • Drocpir says:

      o.0 James can’t you just move your existing .minecraft folder to a safe location then move an older version to where you installed minecraft originally? Then when IC2 updates you can go back to the newer minecraft. I have 4 copies of minecraft in different locations and just switch out the folder when I want to play an old mod that is incompatible with other mods. If that makes any sense lol.

    • necans says:

      James,you do realise you can backup your minecraft folder to another folder,download 1.8.1 with MCNostalgia and use it to play IC 1.8?No need to dualboot.

    • Jotac0 says:

      Hmm you can make a “portable” minecraft (if on windows ._.)…
      instroctions:
      create a folder.
      in the folder create a .txt file.
      and type there:
      [code]
      set APPDATA=%CD%
      exe\minecraft.exe
      [/code]
      then create a folder named exe in the same stop as the txt
      rename the .txt file to something.bat.
      run your bat file.

      this way i have about 20 minecraft moded with diferent versions of mods, and many times industrialcraft 😮

  30. 1994mat says:

    I found this in the 1.337 changelog:

    Reduced the energy cost for QuantumHelmet food regeneration

    QHelemt takes 2x more energy to refill hungre

    Soooo, which one is correct?

  31. AlanD says:

    I’m looking forward to the release, but damn you, Alblaka. I’ve been hammering my F5 key for ages now! lol

  32. Dragoone says:

    uhh al would you care to tell us what “soon” is in modding?
    cause if its in wow terms i may just….i dont know what yet but id figure it out…

    also great work on the mod so far, i cant wait to see what you have planned.

    • Cpy says:

      In wow it does not mean anything. So i thought it was today, but damn.

    • HalfThere says:

      It’s ambiguous, and for good reason; any number of delays can happen.

      The delay between “Well damn” and “soon” was 11 days, so I’d say we’re looking at another 9 tops. However, due to things like Christmas, it is probably looking at more.

      Disclaimer: This is purely conjecture of someone with no access to the inside goings-on of the IndustrialCraft team. It is, in no way, intended as a deadline anyone can be held to for anything. The date given relies purely on the fact that “soon” logically means “>50%”.

    • Alblaka says:

      I usually use “soon” if something is mostly finished up and just needs some tweaking. Kinda like a “we’re working on the last 10%”. Given some stuff suddenly turns out to take longer then exspected, i wouldn’t dare adding a defined number to the term “soon”, though.

  33. Jim says:

    Very excited for this. Getting ready to play this with some friends. Already got buildcraft ready to go! 🙂
