    [1.7.10] RusticCraft

    If you are serious about adding forestry, this is the "new", "hip" and "happening" Forestry now. ;) Regarding dungeons, I understand that people feel strongly one way or another about it. Well, if people wish to, they could add that in their own packs if they choose to. Anyway, speaking of...

    [1.7.10] RusticCraft

    I am aware of it. It was either that ^^, or you need to show that you modpack has a unique gameplay outside of run-of-the-mill packs. I felt this second could make the pack qualify for distributing it (like how Eyamaz got it inside BnB). ^^ One spawner room, or a visit to one of the vanilla...

    [1.7.10] RusticCraft

    I like your approach. Regardless of the other mods in a pack, TiCo always provided a way to double the ores. IMHO, you should keep it. With the "deadly things" mod present in the pack, it wouldn't behove to torture the players and make them mine any more than necessary :D You didn't mention...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    ^^ You've summarised it very well, actually. But the old cliche, "devil is in the details" is so very true while coding software. These 3 paragraphs probably took more than a few 100 lines to code up, despite all the advantages of packages, polymorphism and inheritence that a sophisticated OO...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    ^^ Man, I started MC with a sole diet of psj's videos (and for a long time my skin was psj's skin as a tribute to the roots) followed much much later, by etho's videos, so my sense of "adventure" is stronger than my sense of "build"! Having said that, to this point, the nether's always found a...

    Dear God! Greg's attention to detail never ceases to impress!

    [1.7.10] RusticCraft

    Nice. I was hoping someone might resurrect the spirit of the "Life in the woods" modpack in 1.8/1.7.10 releases. Thanks for doing so ;). I might download it and give it a try. I love your selection of mods. :) Now, I am not sure if you've considered these mods before, or if it's all new. Either...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Your reasoning on this may be right, and since it's your pack, do what you want. On a broader perspective, I am beginning to think this might be the beginning of the end of the road for EXBL after all. :( And that makes me sad, in a way. Side note. FYI, I copied EXBL and BoP in a 1.7.x single...

    More 1.7.10 Updates

    I I went through all 6-7 pages of the fastcraft thread too, when I first read about it on IC2 forums (I've become a lurker there lately). So I know what the intent is behind the clause. My whole point (that everyone seems to be missing) is that a conversation about fastcraft, between a random...

    More 1.7.10 Updates

    Well, obvious short sighted comment is obvious. :p My motivation for starting all this is for helping a broader audience (and the team from facing "support" questions that could well be avoided early on) than just for the sake of I, me and myself. Rest assured I have added this mod, tested it...

    More 1.7.10 Updates

    About Fastcraft, we had a similar refrain on another thread, and we got a reply from @SpwnX that redistribution is possible. I suspect Player worded it too strongly for the mod's own good :( Since I quoted @SpwnX here, he might offer more insight about fastcraft. Optifine has always been a...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I am sorry if my remarks were a little out of place. It was just some (gentle, imho) leg pulling. The whole ongoing 1.7.x lag saga has just made me a little irreverent towards the whole game. The transition from 1.6.4 to 1.7.x has been pretty rough to me as a gamer. If anything it was probably...

    More 1.7.10 Updates

    If it is not too much to ask of you, @Jadedcat and @Eyamaz As part of all your 1.7.10 FTB packs, from the get go, I request that you make the packs optifine compatible and include fastcraft and other similar "mineagra" type mods out there that magically seem to make minecraft to "Oh behave...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Buses! You wait for ages for one, then three come along at once! P.S: Oh, and I suppose fans of the pack should send a "Thank You" note to @MigukNamja (and "big boat" Brody @Pyure ) for enabling this "big push" from the Infinity pack's trenches (I like to think that the last team meeting...

    The Update to 1.8

    I know, and I downright hate their "blow hot, blow cold" attitude towards mods. In the same conversation with Carmack, when Carmack brought the mods into picture (to save face?), notch acknowledged outright that he owes it to the mods for making his game what it is today (I paraphrase), and once...

    The Update to 1.8

    It always seems to be among the first to move to newer releases. The mod author's commitment to maintaining it is admirable. :)

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    ^^ This would imply that EXBL might *never* get used with the pack. I would have been happier if it was the opposite (like 1.6.4 where EXBL was enabled over BoP). Otherwise it's nigh impossible for people downloading servers to enable one mod over another. Oh well who am I kidding! Guess I...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    @Jason McRay, ExtraBiomesXL updated to 1.7.10. It's a public secret that I love this mod to bits. Could we roll with this once again for 1.7.10 also, please? Pretty please? Desperate please?

    The Update to 1.8

    I am still sore with that "toaster" remark. It was a throwaway remark by the OP, but without the kind of qualification and quantification and caveat that he's finally offering now (including his most recent reply above). I for one, am still upset with that remark. The "I am upset" moment will...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Brief update from me: fastcraft just won't work with the 1.7.2 infipack :( tried 1.6, 1.8 and 1.8-debug2 versions... Wasted a loong time. Nothing to show for it. :( EDIT: I threw a bunch of 1.7.10 mods and tried fastcraft 1.8. It made some difference to the fps. 8-10 instead of 1-2 fps. No...
