PC Compat
by Anvilcraft
PC Compat is a Forge 1.7.10 technology mod that bridges energy and machine mods from several other ecosystems, so their machines can work together in one world.
What it does
The mod supplies compatibility layers between its own energy handling and a set of other technology mods. It covers machines and cables from several power systems and can also bridge to the additional PowerConverters3 compatibility add-on. Players who mix several power systems in one modpack can use it to connect those systems without rebuilding their machines.
PC Compat is published only for Forge 1.7.10, with 0.3.0 as the latest file, a beta-channel build dated 2025-09-05. The first file came out on 2023-07-21. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source, although its source code is publicly available.
