Greetings. I would like to introduce you to the JesterPack, my first endeavour to create a Minecraft Modpack.
My main Goal was to balance both, entry level friendliness and End Game Progression. This is mostly because we have two types of players on my server, those who are new to modded Minecraft (or unwilling to learn about the mods ^^) and those who are clearly interested in reaching endgame and building crazy contraptions. The whole pack is more on the casual side though.
In order to reach this goal I compiled what I think is a balanced selection of Mods that should scratch the Itch of both builders and those who want to progress through the tech (and magic) trees. Also I was inspired by the FTB teams Idea of adding HQM to the Pack in order to give out quests. The Quests aren't complete though as I am still working on it. Any suggestions for quests or other feedback is greatly appreciated.
Pack Code: jesterpack
Current Version: 1.0.0 (1.0.1 was submitted by me last Tuesday so it should be up anytime soon)
Installed Mods (I didn't include Libraries unless they add features on their own):
