http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1813058-thaumic-tinkerer-thaumcraft-addon-evolve-knowledge-v103/ It's a REALLY awesome mod that adds a bunch of things, from wands and staffs, to upgraded thaumcraft armor and more building blocks called "smokey quartz". It does add a 'transmutator table', but I'm not sure how it works yet. But if it's an issue, it's the only block in the config you can disable.
Looks pretty neat to get, currently I don't really use much from thaumcraft, due to most of the items and machines being there already by other mods. Might be something to check out. Also if we're losing Red Power, Smokey Quartz could be a nice replacement for basalt.
Keep in mind that railcraft already has it's own substitute for marble and basalt. It's called "abyssal stone" and "Quarried Stone" respectively. You can see there here http://www.railcraft.info/version-7-1-0-0-the-brick-update/
it works by drawing aspects from nearby warded jars and crucibles to make an item with the same aspects its balanced for most things but some things are a little too easy to make for instance you can use nikolite to make redstone at a 1:1 ratio so it would likely have to be disabled
It's true. I was requesting this mod for 1.5. So it would be very likely that we wouldn't have RP2. So you wouldn't ha ve to worry about that transmutation in particular.
I started feeding nikolite to the matter fab, if it's going to be gone might as well make it useful now.
