With minecraft I draw the line at shaders. When the mod scene started to blow up in minecraft and everyone was like
>hey you can now build a machine to farm iron faster by downloading this mod that lets you build the machine
it was like watching people lose their minds.
If you're going to hack the game to make acquiring something easier, then just give yourself 1 million iron and be done with it.
There are millions of mods like this. I still can't fathom it. Vanilla minecraft + custom shaders is perfect for me.
