Incompatibilities:
- Russian locale for some mods
- Portal Research Addon
- Toxic Jungle
- Mountains
- Noxys Extra Settings Info
- Big Brother Tweaked
- BigBags
If you found other incompatibilities - tell me, i'll resolve it or add to list
Known issues:
Not full localization of Creative mode and other mods
Missings locale string in mod-setting-description when original mod doesn't have descriptions. Affects any non-supported mod
Future plans:
- Moar customizable features
- Maybe cross-integrate/localize other mods (possibly by community request)
- RSO-like resource generator based on remote interfaces and per-surface settings, including AngelsInfiniteOres-like spawning (also fully customizable)
Disclaimer:
All changes in graphics, localizations and behaviours i've made firstly for myself, not for others. You can disagree with it, but it is so. I don't like to use mods that adds too much complexity in game, so you can't find bob's and angel's mods integration soon. But maybe later...
