GT4 Reimagined
GT4 Reimagined brings a Gregtech 4 style set of machines and generators to Forge 1.16.5 without requiring IC2.
What it does
The mod takes the Gregtech 4 Reimagined line of machines and reworks it for 1.16.5 without IC2 as a dependency. Its author describes the result as close to Gregtech 4 in several areas, including covers, automation blocks and ore processing, while other parts follow the Gregtech 5 approach. Tools and cables keep much of the Gregtech 4 behavior, and a few machine recipes have been changed.
The additions include oil world generation, solar, wind and water generators, and a large heat exchanger. The author notes that the project is still a work in progress, with major parts still to be finished. The mod runs on Forge, and both the server and every player need it. Its source code and issue tracker are public, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so the project is open source.
