[1.6.4] Cataclysm ModPack [HardCore, Post-Apocalyptic Survival]

Ex Nihlo I think would be difficult to get balanced with the pack. I still haven't tried the server world gen yet, but the wasteland is full of dirt, which is easy to sift for saplings, grass seeds, and other resources that I'm pretty sure aren't meant to be so easy to obtain. Ore is similarly easy to get through sifting gravel.
The mod has a lot of things that would be interesting in a survival world, of course, but being designed for skyblock maps it isn't exactly balanced for them and I don't think it can be configured easily or changed by minetweaker?

Just a wild ass guess. The look of the ruined cities reminds me of the world gen used by a server i used to play on with tekkit, called TheMiningDead. They used an older mod called Mortuus Terra to create a world of sand and sandstone with ruined cities. Not quite the same look as this, but close. Some courtyards have dead trees in them, in the courtyard with 5 trees, you sometimes found dirt under the middle tree. Later on it was randomly scattered in the ground along with water blocks, but very,very rare. We ate a lot of zombie.

Yeah, It was an older mod, wish they had kept upkeeping it. Skuli did a lot of coding to keep TheMiningDead up and running, and it evolved quite a bit over time.
Oh well would you look at this: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2707478-164modtweaker-01a-minetweaker-addon/#entry31759679
Ex Nihilo suddenly became a lot easier to include in a pack like this. Adding and removing recipes for the sifter, hammer, and crucible would let you do a whole lot of interesting survival-y sort of things, if you were so inclined.

Im beginning to think that TinCon is really in the mod pack for the tools more than the weapons. lol
What you mean? 
. Its weapons and tools are both useful! Though I would say that the tools are more useful due to the fact that u need to mine a lot more due to scarcity of ores

But then again I haven't used anything stronger than iron in TinCon yet. I am still figuring out the mods. lol
Ah I c . I added a mod to allow tinkers construct to work with metallurgy ores. So that allows you to make even more customized weapons. Also cleavers can be very powerful. I plan on writing up a survival guide with some good tips for starting and an explanation of some of the less know features. For instance the you will die mod. You may have noticed how armors and weapons have sub names. "Broken iron sword" etc and a level with a bonus stat. The more you use the same type of weapon .IE iron swords, you will notice it will tell you that you level up and do more damage with them. Also you can level up crafting them which allows you to make higher tier versions. For example a "pristine" version rather than a "broken" version.

I've been attempting to pick up what I can just from google and experimentation, but there should really be a sort of in-game progression book. Kinda like the one from Agrarian Skies...Or maybe I'm just spoiled. lol Wait, so the more you use a certain weapon, the better the chance of crafting a new one? Or the more you craft a certain weapon the better you get at it?

Likewise the more u craft a certain type of weapon the more u level up the crafting skill for that kind of weapon and the more likely you are to craft a higher tier version . Also I will probably add in books in game with a starting inventory mod
