PACK CODE: DESIGNTECH

Hey guys, Welsknight here, and I'm very proud to announce the public release of DesignTech, my custom modpack that I have been working on for about 3 or 4 months! DesignTech is a kitchen-sink pack with a heavy focus on decorative blocks, design, and survival building, with enough tech that you will be able to focus on building instead of grinding for resources. This modpack is accompanied by a Youtube Let's Play series, which you will find linked below. I hope you try it out and enjoy it!


Long Description

DesignTech is a kitchen-sink modpack in which the primary focus is building. If you are looking for a challenging pack, a pack with a storyline, or a pack that will kill you, then you have come to the wrong place. However, if you are looking for a pack that you can kick back, relax, and build super-detailed structures both small and large with a vast array of tools and materials at your disposal, then this might just be the pack for you. DesignTech aims to provide a balanced mix of both familiar and under-appreciated mods.

This is not a modpack that was hastily thrown together. Hours have been spent in the configs and in MineTweaker. In addition, every mod within the pack was selected for some reason, whether it be to provide additional materials, textures, and tools for you to build with, or to provide options for automation and quality-of-life improvements so that you can spend more time building and less time grinding. This modpack has been in development for roughly 3-4 months, and I'm quite proud of it (admittedly, I'm a bit biased). I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I do.

This pack contains Fastcraft, by Player, enabled by default. Fastcraft enhances Minecraft with increased performance. Bug reports being made directly to Mod Authors should state Fastcraft is enabled.

All mods are their latest versions as of June 30th, 2015.

After watching AnnaMayBelle's stream today, I deleted the modpack and reinstalled it. I still get the black/pink spash screens. Not sure why other's get it and some don't.

Any chance you could send me a couple screen shots of your mod folders and directory that it's installed to? I'm also curious to see if you have a "resources" folder, and if so what's inside it. Thanks!

Version 1.1.1 is live! Minor config tweaks.

Also, trying to lock down the problem some people are reporting with the graphics on the main menu. Please let me know if you are experiencing this; it works fine when I download and install the pack myself.

As I suspected. My custom graphics aren't downloading properly (probably because the folder inside of "resources" was named "minecraft". I've submitted a hotfix, so hopefully it will be fixed soon.

I like the pack and I love the series you're doing. You have a fairly soothing voice which is great for recording, and you seem to have a fair understanding of mods which is great. I've subscribed to your channel mainly because I like the series on this pack and on the SMP, but you are quite a lot of series' right now, that must be overwhelming. Oh, and after seeing the Stud Tech pack, its obvious you have a great computer, again great for having a channel.

First of all, thank you for a wonderful pack!
I really do enjoy my time in DesignTech, although, I seen to have stumbled upon a problem with fastcraft and village generation - any known bugs here?
[11:00:02] [Server thread/ERROR] [FastCraft]: NPE FROM StructureStart.generateStructure, obj=net.minecraft.world.gen.structure.MapGenVillage$Start@223abe65.

This has happened about 8 times in the last 2 days, and I have had to disable fastcraft to keep playing.
I can upload the entire log, if you want me to, just point me to where and consider it done :)

The funny thing is, this has happened on one single player world, whereas my other singleplayer world, which has been opened as a lan-game, does not have this problem....

EDIT: I tried making a new world, and found a "village" of sorts - 4 small huts and an incomplete smeltery. This loaded quite nicely, but as i kept moving, my game crashed upon nearing another village, which i guess contains some other structures.

Edit 2:
Encountered some other error, after visiting the village with fastcraft disabled.
[12:43:02] [Thread-23/INFO] [STDOUT]: [paulscode.sound.SoundSystemLogger:errorMessage:131]: Error in class 'LibraryLWJGLOpenAL'

Hello welsknight i began watching you quite a while ago, and i adored the lets plays and wanted to try it out for myself. Following your progress and doing sorta the same things since im new to the whole modded minecraft thing.

I installed optifine since i have a pretty mid end pc that can't figure out how to play it properly without optifine..

But i cant seem to make this glitch go away anyhow.. do you got any tips on how to get this annoying glitch away? It happens randomly where i have to put a torch down to make it stop, sometimes several torches. It happens every time i open a door, and quite frankly is very annoying to play with.. got any tips?

http://imgur.com/a/A3kYO imgur link for the pictures of the glitch.
