1.7.10 Total Meltdown [HQM][Tech][Space] - ABANDONED

[BaileyH]

Edit: This project is currently abandoned and will no longer be supported. Progress may be broken or unstable, play at your own risk.



Hey everyone! I would like to finally announce the beta release of our new mod pack Total Meltdown. Total Meltdown is a tech centered mod pack that focuses on lunar survival and galactic domination. You must advance your tech fast as you battle with the lack of oxygen and available food. Mobs have evolved to be stronger than their over world counterparts, can you match them in strength?

The uniqueness of this mod pack stems from the many options available to the players. There are a variety of mods at each players disposal so that gathering resources is no longer a chore. Favor ex nihilo? Really like mine chem? Do you like programming turtles to complete complex tasks? Do you gain joy in murdering a legion of mobs? Any way is viable for nearly every resource and the player is not restricted to a single play style.

With over 120 quests and growing, can you reestablish society in the most hostile environment known to man?

Author Inspiration:
TheLargeCactus and I were inspired to create this mod pack because of how much we enjoy playing quest-based, objective-based mod packs.Tech mods often get a bad reputation due to their repetitive nature, but we feel that with this thematic set and a core objective, tech mods can come away from the resource tripling that they are known for and instead focus on the roots of minecraft, survival.

For the sake of loot bag balance, it is recommended to play on Hard.

World Fix:

Spoiler

If you are stranded on anywhere but the moon without a rocket you may use /cofh tpx (yourname) -28
If a crafting quest isn't detecting your craft, use /hqm edit to force complete it

Cool loking pack i will play it and edit to my opinion

 

[Vidinston]

It's a beautiful thing when staff make modpacks... Mostly because they are the most boss modpacks. Ever. HQM forever!

 

[parcel31u]

Neat :b
OMG minecheeeeeeem

 

[Bearnado123]

Oooooooh a beta pack with minechem... Time to break all of the things!!!

 

[PastorBones]

I love this modpack so far! It has to be the best thing since Crash Landing...but why no Steve's Factory Manager?

Steve's Factory Manager was one of the mods we intended to add during the development of the pack along with Modular Power Suits. His download page is still down, however now I see he posted a new link. It hasn't broke anything yet, if the pack retains stability then you can expect it in the next update. Good catch

 

[StephJ2Fan]

I'm curious, when you make it to the moon, is the lander supposed to land on a specific building?
I've gotten 3 quests in, and find myself stuck. I love the idea!

 

[BaileyH]

Are you having trouble finding your way inside the base? The entrance is in front of the building with an awkward structure inside of it. I will change the quest to the location of the entrance

 

[StephJ2Fan]

Yeah I can't seem to find the entrance. is it a galacticaft door?

 

[BaileyH]

Yes, it is an airlock door at Coords:
X:344
y:65
z:-393

 

[StephJ2Fan]

I found it after looking a bit more, but yeah maybe changing it to the coords of the door would be best.

 

[scourge728]

I thought you should know that 3 things so far are not working right 1. I can't upgrade my flint pickaxe with the skull (before a manual level up) or the iron pick head the quest gives you (after manually upgrading pick and getting mossy effect) 2. are the dome areas supposed to not have air in them as the quest book seems to suggest that air is supposed to be in them but no air is 3. that instant cool down detectable skull quest is annoying as now I will always have an unclaimed reward forever

 

[Mirellie]

im more worried about how fast it is because of free food, free iron, and free obsidian at absolutely no cost. and the quest is Rock My Moon

 

[BaileyH]

The quest was not intended to have an instant cool down. This will be fixed tonight, thanks also the domes are not supposed to have air in them, what quest implied that?

 

[Funwayguy]

This sounds a lot like a pack me and a Twitch streamer have been working on. Where exactly did you get the idea for this?

 

[Funwayguy]

Never mind, just found the WIP version of this pack and the origin date. It's just a very unlucky coincidence I guess.

 

[scourge728]

the one were it states that if you want to be able to leave the base without fear of suffocation or something like that

 

[BaileyH]

DUPE BUG

Playing V1.1.6 and I forgot to put my oxygen gear on (2 tanks, mask, and gear). However, when I got to the moon I had gear on and MY gear still in my inventory.
