Forestry is a large Minecraft mod which adds new items, machines, and ores to the game, many of which are used in farming. Forestry also adds bees, beekeeping, and bee breeding. It was designed for compatibility with IndustrialCraft 2 and BuildCraft 3, and many of its machines require power from BuildCraft compatible engines.
Forestry sounds interesting, but I'm not at all interested in buildcraft. Can I realistically use forestry without buildcraft?
Best Answer
Long story short?
No.
Forestry relies on Buildcraft being present.
