Hey Six. Thanks for the awesome mudpack. Wanted to point out, as I was going through the mod list, I believe you misspelled Enchiridion. You wrote Enchidion there in the list, and I could not find anything under that.
Hey AF_Bunny. Sahid to the rescue. Go chop down some Rubber Trees (from MFR) cook the rubber once, then cook that into plastic. Make Plastic Sheets out of plastic, and use the plastic right in the Part Builder to make ALL your tooks, down to a Hammer. Just don't use plastic for the handle. If you make a mattock with plastic axe and plastic shovel and use a stick as your handle, you will have a 1,500 durability tool. Same goes for a Pickaxe. It will level up to mining Copper, 1500 durability, no smeltery required. Your best friend right there. Hope I helped.
Hmm i think im guna make a series of this mod pack.
it seems great and i love the idea of taking you through the mods you may not have tried before

Hey Six.
I have played the mudpack for about 10 hours so far, and thought I would provide some feedback. A friend recommended this pack to me, and although I usually like packs with way more challenge (such as MadPack2 for example), I did find this pack challenging enough. But this pack is challenging in a whole different way; it just makes things we've come to love, such as Iguana, Pam's Harvestcraft, etc., more "difficult", and by that I mean more annoying. I don't know about the rest, but I absolutely love the extra modifiers, especially when there are lots of levels like in SkyFactory2 for example. Makes you want to get out there and hunt more. I noticed that this pack is geared towards the things I don't like (Blood Magic) and things that are over my head (Thaumcraft). I have always been a Mekanism, MFR, stuff like that kind a guy. But it was not all lost for me, cause I LOVE the HQM mod. But although I know what it takes to make 100+ quest, I have to say, so much work spent, why not finish it? There are people like me, who although at first glance will dismiss the pack due to the mods in it, and more importantly, the mods that aren't in it, but they will still give it a go just because of HQM - people love achievements But when quests are made and there are no rewards, or as someone above mentioned they were even offended by 64 controllers, it completely turns people off, to say the least. No one wants to purchase a lottery ticket for $200 with a maximum possible prize of $20. Sure the sheer going for the goal is great, but a nice reward at the end is soooo much greater.
In closing, I am not a professional mudpack builder, but I am a professional mudpack player. I have beat every pack (that had a built-in definition of beating a pack) I have played. I have a great idea about pack makers and pack breakers. I know what makes a pack popular among people like me - the players. If you can get anything out of this long monologue, great. If not, then please forgive the old man ranting

I did indeed mean enchiridion, thanks for pointing that out.
Well, thanks for the honesty, but I have a couple things I would like clarification on. Pam's and and Iguana's, I left them pretty much unchanged, what is it you dislike? And I agree, I love the extra modifiers, I just find that when I'm making end game tools such as manyllyun, and I get something like unbreaking, or silk touch, it just makes me want to curse the game. And as for the magic, how do you feel it is geared towards it? I personally dislike blood magic, and so I only added it for others, but I tried to make it so that if you did not want to do magic, you could do all tech and never touch the stuff. And, as a lot of people have been recommending it, I have been trying to add rewards, but I use HQM as more of an achievement/tutorial kind of thing, so while I may not always reward you for doing something you'd be doing anyways, I ALWAYS give some sort of reward for a consume quest, if the reward isn't adequate that is a different story. As for the 64 controllers, I thought that would be a joke people might find funny, but I've changed it to 8 seared brick in the next version. As for the mods, which would you want to see in it?Hey Six.

tl;dr: Please clarify, and if you have suggestions for mods, rewards for quests, quests themselves, etc, go for it! Worst case scenario I say no

step one) stop playing on a spud
step two) alocate 4 GB to minecraft and change your permgen to 512MB

I have no idea what a spud is, but, I only have 6gb ram altogether, but thank you, will try now.
I'm irish, I know that a spud is a potato
. But we all know am not sitting here playing on a red rooster. Also done the changes and no crashes so far (thanks!!)Hey SixOnTheBeach

Watched the whole thing, really cool! And as for the quest rewards, I've redone them to give much more of a reward in the next update, expect it in a couple daysHey SixOnTheBeach

As for a tip? Get some darn food But really, nothing quite as cool as watching someone enjoy a pack you've poured a lot if work into.Side note: Find some lava, that's what the clay buckets are for!
The reason it has that name is because I had BOP, so you *would* spawn on a beach. I removed the mod because it was very laggy, and not really necessary, but the name stuck.
Also, apologies to everyone for delaying the update, it is done, I am merely waiting on a fix for a pretty big modtweaker crash to release.
Alright, for now I've delayed the modtweaker stuff, you'll have to deal with those pesky metallurgy smeltery alloys a little while longer. The pack is currently being uploaded, but I thought I'd give fair warning for this. The changes I've made to HQM have reset a lot of the quests, so you'll have to redo them, or cheat the stuff in. Much as it pains me, there is nothing I can do to prevent this.
