I've been running a server for over a month now with a small number of players. We've been exploring quite a bit and early on, all the players tried to spread out over a few thousand blocks from spawn, so we have generated many, many chunks. I had not heard of Galacticraft until recently, and we decided to add it to the server. I've been running a number of mods already that add tin and copper, but we're going to need silicon and aluminum in order to get anywhere, and it's going to be tough to find them.
I've looked into a few options, such as the OresPlus mod, which can add aluminum into the world, but not silicon. I've also heard some people suggest adding MystCraft in order to generate worlds in which those ores will spawn, but I'm already bogged down with many, many mods and want to avoid adding another. The only other option I know of is running MCEdit and deleting chunks manually, but considering how much of the world we've already explored and developed, this will be an extremely tedious task with the risk of deleting players' work.
Has anyone had luck adding Galacticraft to a pre-existing world? Are there any (other) mods out there designed to help with this? Would a possible solution be to download OresPlus and tinker with it in Eclipse (I'm a moderately experienced coder)?
