    FTB One - Infinity Hard Mode Week

    I've been doing some testing of Creepershifts pack, Nuclear Fallout. IE is the early game route for power, and really having a blast with it. I've done several versions of a mill/millrace/waterwheel, and then some larger setups on a steep mountain with a cascade roaring down a 100 blocks turning...

    FTB One - Infinity Hard Mode Week

    Awesome to hear that. I'm really looking forward to hardmode infinity. I like packs with a challenge, but also making stuff harder can give things more of a purpose. Right now it takes next to nothing in resources for an ender quarry, and it doesn't take a lot of power to run one. People make...

    Now Listed - Banished V 1.4.0 [Magic][Cave world][HQM][Combat][Survival]

    Hmmm, possibly creepers trying to destroy light sources. Zombies will knock down the torches, but creepers explode to get rid of them. Not sure if they would do that for the AM2 light spell or not.

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    I think if you put both Tinkers Construct and GT in a modpack, you computer melts down. They really don't like each other, last i heard :)

    Now Listed - Banished V 1.4.0 [Magic][Cave world][HQM][Combat][Survival]

    EE3 is always going to be highly exploitable. There are too many ways to gain some resources easily and use those to gain rare items. It's not really "magic", more of a cheat code. Those exploits listed are pretty common with EE3. Sadly, they encourage people to use EE3 to churn out resources...

    [1.7.10] Vaelstrom 1.0.5

    I'm guessing "it's there, but don't expect an update". The creator is still on these boards and posting, just not here. If you read the OP, this was a project being done, and then got posted as public. Public packs take some work though. Some of it just replying to people, some of it fixing...

    [Public Pack] EPiCCRAFT 1.0.x {Progression}{Survival}

    My research was based on the last time he bothered to come back to these boards and post an update. I don't have time to randomly check utube to see if creators of dead packs have decided to do something else. The guy released a modpack, then immediately abandoned it and never came back to...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Same, don't use twitter. And doesn't matter too much. Updates are fine and all, but it's only the one that says "it works and is done" that's really of importance to me :)

    [Public Pack] EPiCCRAFT 1.0.x {Progression}{Survival}

    Well, the pack got about 1 update after it came out and no one has heard from Jon or Cyanide in a year. It's also a 1.6 pack that would need to be upgraded. So my guess is that unless someone else takes it over...It's dead. Doesn't mean you can't play it and have fun, or go looking for packs...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Pretty much that was our last update. Ready to go...bug....time passes. Have to assume some big bugs showed up, or small ones but lack of time. Or....aliens or something. It's sort of into the phase similar to when you pay for a kickstarter and are waiting a long time for the package.....except...

    1.7.10 - Nuclear Fallout - [Unlisted][Unguided Progression][Custom mods][Challenge][Survival]

    Yes, the cityworld gen works great for a single server, not great for a modpack. Ruins mod by Atomic Stryker works pretty well. I've messed with that a bunch. Easy to create the ruins and then toss the templates in the biomes you want. And world gen in the picture looks very nice.

    1.7.10 - Nuclear Fallout - [Unlisted][Unguided Progression][Custom mods][Challenge][Survival]

    This is a great world for any post apoc setting: http://www.curse.com/bukkit-plugins/minecraft/cityworld Several versions you can use. Underground bunkers, tunnel systems, etc. Don't let Doomsquirter gets to you. He bounces from pack to pack and plays the hell out of them. But he likes to know...

    Great news. It's still amazing damage compared to other range weapons. Especially as people will just make the fastest bow now, vs the most damage. But still a great step towards not making a fun pack trivial.

    [1.7.10] [Shadows of Twilight ] [RPG] [Advent of Ascension] - The New Departed!

    Yes, super powered zombie puppies roaming in packs definitely made it interesting and hobbibly deadly :) And removing ores from TF was a nice touch as well. We did a nice base in a tall tree in TF, and run back to the overworld for exploration and mining. Dogs get us now and then, and burned...

    [1.7.10] [Shadows of Twilight ] [RPG] [Advent of Ascension] - The New Departed!

    Ruins is an incredibly versitile mod. Many people have made additional ruins that can easily be added to the mod just by copying their files into the biome folder of the biome you want them to appear in. Jordan Peacock has some especially nice pieces of work. It's also incredibly easy to make...

    Cool, thanks for that. I just don't see the point of making a new server that features a nice mod like AoA, but then having other mods that overshadow it. Earning AoA armor, swords, etc to fight more mobs from AoA is probably balanced within the mod.

    Some of the biggest things that I saw were: Tinkers Construct: Hammers giving huge increases in mining skill very fast. Horribly overpowered bows. I assume swords and things from AoA eventually outdamage tinkers weapons. Turn off the combo of smelt+fortune. Turn off doubling of ores. Or drop...

    I agree. I started playing and it was too easy to make hammers from Tinkers and immediately watch my skill soar. AOA ores that i cant use yet make great tinkers items. I had hundreds of ingots for repairs that i had not other use for, after only a couple of nights playing. I think AoA is the gem...

    Don't worry, you'll probably have a new computer by then :)
