I'm playing TPPI atm. It's one of the best balanced packs I've seen so far and definitely is based on Ultimate. It's anything BUT a cluttered mess, as any quick look at the recipes and tweaks list will tell you. Frankly, TPPI is the perfect example of how to do big modpacks right.

How is it any different than TPPI? That's my main concern.

We need a thread for this. Like, a serious discussion thread.

I got more entertainment out of playing Cookie Clicker than I did with OreSpawn. Seriously, it's a cookie-cutter flight/tools/bosses/dimensions mod that somehow got popular because YouTubers that weren't aware of real mods found it and thus their equally uninformed fanbase took it up like...

If they take action, so be it. I will laugh as they get screamed at by thousands upon thousands of angry fans, and even worse, piss off the YouTubers and that whole community. I do feel we need our own game though.

I probably lost at least an IQ point's worth of brain cells reading that. Just....what? WHY???

If I want advanced power transmission, I'll download RoC. If I want advanced pipes, I'll download Mek. I've said it before and I'll say it again: trying to change the niche an established mod fits in is a terrible idea, because all it does is create competition with another mod that's probably...

Nope, definitely FPS. Fastcraft managed to solve my chunkloading issues for the most part.

Huh. My big issue on 1.7 has been terrible FPS comparative to other versions.

Yeah, 1.7's performance is horrid. It's even worse after I compared it to my new 1.6 TPPI world, which with 3x as many mods and easily 5x as much worldgen as my 1.7 world that can barely hit 60 is hitting 120 FPS consistently. IMHO, I wish we could just port back all the 1.7 mod features into...

This is why we really need our own game. :/

I haven't found this to be the case with large packs made by quality creators (RR, Monster, etc.), but yeah if you just throw mods together things don't work out well, especially if you add crap mods like *shudder* OreSpawn.

I'm all for magic/shaft/whatever TO RF converters. Adding more power options for RF users is always a good thing. But I agree that most uniquely-powered mods should not be able to accept RF. In this way, RF gets all the benefits of the other mod and that mod gets none of the drawbacks of RF.

I have replies on page 5 of the MCF thread. The feels, man. The feels.

ftfy If RP3 does arrive it'll need pretty significant new content of it wants to be relevant again.

Copying the experience and aesthetic of a mod is not illegal. Directly copying the code or artwork is. End of story. That's why there are tons of MC/Terraria clones out there but only the ones that directly take artwork get removed. Doesn't really matter if it's right, or if a mod author...

Bingo. Big, open-ended packs don't spoon-feed you goals and progression, you have to make them yourselves. It seems that ever since HQM packs came out (which are still amazing, don't get me wrong) a large chunk of the community has been utterly incapable of doing such. In addition, as...

I use neither of those mods, in fact I use mods like MFR often. The reason I don't reach endgame in a couple of days because.....er.....I don't rush to endgame like it's some sort of race? Seriously, a lot of people in this community seem to have an issue with setting their own goals.

I don't think the problem is that AE2 is complex. The problem is that very few wanted extreme complexity from AE. If you want complexity there are better options, like Reika's mods or GT. In addition, AE1 was THE automate-all-the-things mod, and when AE2 made that next to impossible there was...
