Removals ​

Everything that left the pack in this release: content that no longer exists, and the mods that were dropped.

Dead recipes and dead code swept out ​

Dead code and dead recipes were swept out: deprecated AE2 Fluid Crafting references, unused native-essentia recipes, leftover IC2 recipes and wire-mould helpers, and an unused texture set. The Perfect Hover augment's recipe is gone (the jetpack does perfect hover on its own now), along with the GraviSuite Vajra shapeless conversion, and Avaritia's Neutronium Compressor is hidden from NEI.

AE2FluidCraft-Rework ​

  • #377 [items disappear] The Fluid Discretizer block is removed. Placed Fluid Discretizers and any in inventories will disappear; nothing converts them. The creative tab icon changes to the Walrus. - @lc-1337
    • What to do: Take Fluid Discretizers out of your networks and storage before updating, because the block and item are deleted.

GT5-Unofficial ​

  • #7178 [items disappear] Removes the BartWorks material casings and rebolted casings made from GT materials, such as Aluminium, Copper, Steel, Stainless Steel, Tungstensteel and HSS-G. Carbon, Silver, Iridium, Naquadah, Naquadah Alloy, Osmiridium, Black Steel and Wood keep theirs, and casings of BartWorks' own materials stay. Removed casings are not converted: placed ones and ones in a chest lose their material. - @LazyFlesh

    • What to do: Break any BartWorks material casings and rebolted casings made from GT materials before updating, except the Carbon, Silver, Iridium, Naquadah, Naquadah Alloy, Osmiridium, Black Steel and Wood ones; casings of BartWorks' own materials, such as Ruridit, are not affected.
  • #6691 [items disappear] PTMEG and the chemicals used only to make it are removed: Tetrahydrofuran, Acidicised 1,4-Butanediol, Polytetrahydrofuran, Tungstophosphoric Acid and related materials. Their recipes are removed too. Existing items of these materials turn into dirt on load, and placed blocks become dirt blocks. - @YannickMG

    • What to do: PTMEG Elastomer, Polytetrahydrofuran, Tetrahydrofuran, Acidicised 1,4-Butanediol, Tungstophosphoric Acid, Toluene Diisocyanate and Toluene Tetramethyl Diisocyanate are all removed, with no recipe to convert them. Their cells, dusts, ingots and blocks turn into dirt on first load, and any of their fluids left in tanks or pipes is lost.

    Remove PTMEG and chemicals only used to craft PTMEG

  • #5821 [items disappear] Removes the Pest Killer block and its assembler recipe. Existing Pest Killers disappear from worlds. - @evgengoldwar

    • What to do: The Pest Killer no longer exists: placed machines disappear from an existing world.
  • #5820 [items disappear] Removes the Poo Collector machines and the poop line: Raw Animal Waste, Manure Slurry and Fertile Manure Slurry fluids, and the Manure Byproduct, Organic Fertilizer and Dried Earth dusts. Existing collectors, fluids and dusts disappear from worlds. The coal tar recipes no longer output small Dirt dust. - @evgengoldwar

    • What to do: Remove Poo Collectors and any poop line items or fluids from your base before updating.
  • #5819 [items disappear] The GT++ Project Table is removed. It was unfinished, and its crafting recipe and name are gone too. Any Project Table already placed or held in a world will disappear. - @evgengoldwar

    • What to do: Take any Project Table out of your machines and storage before updating, because placed blocks and stacks are deleted.
  • #5650 [items disappear] The single-amp Wireless Dynamos are removed, ULV through MAX. They were deprecated in 2.8 and their crafting recipes were already gone. A placed one stays as a dead block, so a multiblock using it as its dynamo loses that output, and a stored one becomes an unusable item. - @UltraProdigy

    • What to do: Replace any single-amp Wireless Dynamos with the multi-amp wireless dynamo hatches before updating; old ones stop working.
  • #5248 [items disappear] The deprecated EV, IV, LuV, ZPM and UV Radio Hatches, which had no crafting recipe left, are removed. A placed one stays as a dead block, and any radioactive material inside it can no longer be taken out. The HV Radio Hatch stays and keeps its recipe. - @VortexSo4

    • What to do: Empty any EV, IV, LuV, ZPM or UV Radio Hatch and replace it with the HV Radio Hatch before updating. After the update a multiblock using one loses that hatch, and held ones become unusable items.
  • #5247 [items disappear] The Deprecated ULV Simple Washer is removed. It had been deprecated for 2 years and had no recipe, and the Simple Washer I replaces it. Its achievement is also removed. - @VortexSo4

    • What to do: Replace any ULV Simple Washer with a Simple Washer I before updating.
  • #5244 [items disappear] Sir Mixalot [Jukebox] is removed. It had been deprecated for 6 years, so any left in a world will disappear. - @VortexSo4

    • What to do: Pick up any Sir Mixalot [Jukebox] and its contents before updating.
  • #5667 [rebuild required] Void Miners no longer accept the old deprecated structure. A Void Miner of any tier still built to the old layout will stop forming and has to be rebuilt to its current structure. - @UltraProdigy

    • What to do: Rebuild any Void Miner that still uses the old structure to the current one, following the controller's structure hologram.
  • #5595 [read before updating] Removes the duplicate Zirconium material registered by the lanthanides addon. Old worlds that still hold this Zirconium lose it. The author expects the quantities to be small. - @UltraProdigy

    • What to do: This only matters if your world is very old. The deprecated duplicate Zirconium material is gone; it could not be obtained at all in 2.8.4, so only worlds carried over from several versions back can hold any. Those dusts and ingots become nameless unusable stacks rather than being cleanly removed. The real Zirconium is untouched.
  • #5278 [recipes changed] The Electrolyzed Water Cell is no longer made or used in any GT recipe. A Water Cell and 2 Empty Cells now electrolyze directly into 2 Hydrogen Cells and 1 Oxygen Cell in 1 minute 40 seconds at 30 EU/t. - @UltraProdigy

    • What to do: Remove any setup that makes Electrolyzed Water Cells and feed Water Cells straight into the Electrolyzer.
  • #5718 All the White Dwarf extruder molds are removed, along with their fluid solidifier recipes. Existing molds disappear from worlds. The UMV tab of the questbook needs a matching change, otherwise the game crashes. - @chrombread

    • Note: The White Dwarf Matter extrusion molds are removed. They had no use in 2.8.4, so almost nobody made any; if you did, three of them (Plate, Rod and Bolt) become Exotic, Cosmic and Transcendent Circuit Boards because their item ids were reused, and the rest become nameless unusable stacks.
  • ...and 8 smaller change(s) in GT5-Unofficial, listed in the by-mod files.

Railcraft ​

  • #100 [check your build] The Blast Furnace no longer pulls fuel out of an adjacent inventory on its own. Any setup that relied on a chest or other inventory with 27 or more slots next to the furnace to feed it fuel will stop working. Feed fuel with hoppers, pipes or another method instead. - @54M44R
    • What to do: Feed fuel into Railcraft Blast Furnaces with a hopper, pipe or other inserter instead of relying on a large chest placed next to them.

Mods removed from the pack ​

Removing a mod can affect an existing world. Check each before updating a save.

  • AE2NoUltimatePatterns - It kept the Ultimate Patterns already in a world from turning into broken items after that item was removed. Applied Energistics 2 has the Ultimate Pattern again, so there is nothing left for it to do.
  • Automagy -> replaced by Automagy-GTNH
  • BrandonsCore - Folded into Draconic Evolution, which now carries its code.
  • CropLoadCore -> replaced by CropsNH - The library Crops++ loaded its crops through. CropsNH needs nothing of the sort.
  • Crops-plus-plus -> replaced by CropsNH - Its crops are in CropsNH, which carries the whole crop system now. Planted ones migrate; see the Crops NH chapter.
  • IC2 Crop-Breeding Plugin -> replaced by CropsNH - It guessed IC2 crop breeding for NEI. CropsNH names its mutations outright, so NEI shows the parents, the block under them and the odds without a plugin working it out.
  • Morpheus - Sleep voting is ServerUtilities' player sleeping percentage, which the pack ships turned on; the playersSleepingPercentage gamerule sets how much of the server has to be in bed.
  • NotEnoughIds -> replaced by EndlessIDs
  • Pam's Harvest the Nether -> replaced by Fether
  • TCNEIAdditions - Replaced by AspectRecipeIndex, which started from it.
  • Thaumcraft NEI Plugin - Replaced by AspectRecipeIndex, which carries its handlers; running both would have shown every recipe twice.
  • ae2stuff - Its contents moved into Applied Energistics 2: the Wireless Connector and Hub, and a Super Wireless Kit that binds and recolours them. The Pattern Encoder is gone, and the recipes that used it now use the Pattern Terminal.
