I haven't tried it that way. Most likely there will be a few ID conflicts, like the potion ID conflicts I got when I added RotaryCraft to DW20. I suspect nothing major though.
I would really like to start playing, but there are still so many things unclear about all these packs...
I started a Direwolf 20 game, but after seeing huge hats on the back of horses, I just couldn't continue. Also the minimap didn't seem to work and I don't know how to fix it.
Monster is just too crowded, and I am afraid that things will not work properly eventually because of that. Also, it doesn't have AM2, that seems interesting.
Magic World 2 looks great, but Hexxit, even if its outdated, also looks pretty nice, even without the texture pack, and has some nice mods that add some neat stuff for adventuring.
Also, I still don't understand what's the difference between the Tech World 2 and Tekkit, or why Horizons can compare with them for a tech install.
Test Pack Please Ignore I can't install because it says in the title to ignore it, and I respect their request

.Thanks. I've seen the modlists, ofc, but being new to mod packs, I don't know what to look for
Go on the MCF pages for some mods and have a look at the documentation. See what seems cool.Thanks
I still recommenced TPPI though.
Universal configs. I believe the first few versions of the 164 modpack eyamaz messed up the universal configs in monster IIRC. Newer versions should have fixed that.
lol that's untrue.
Yes, it requires a monster PC.
I thought the Jaded Mixpack is for Magic Farm 2, not Magic World?Magic World 2 does indeed seem very interesting for me, especially with the Jadecat Mixpack Texture pack. But Hexxit, even though its a little outdated, has some mods that apparently make exploring more interesting, adding a lot of dungeon types, besides adding magic and weapon mods.
And you recommend Horizons, not Tech World 2, or Tekkit, for tech stuff?
And I see that a lot of you recommend Test Pack Please Ignore. But it says in the title to ignore it. Who am I to disagree?
Also, about ATLauncher... at first look, it seems that most of its mod packs focus on hardcore survival, not very appealing to me. The FTB and Tekkit Packs seem the most diverse and interesting, not being focused on masochism.
I recommended Horizons because it still gives you some magic options, and doesn't have the stale tech mods.
TPPI is just a standard jumbo pack, like Monster :/
Your PC does not have to be as strong as one that runs monster in my experience
My sister (who has a mac laptop) can in fact run it with no lag, so in my expirience, its true, just make sure its in good shape and has 2-3 gb dedicated and it SHOULD work (not will)
It still requires a stupidly powerful computer.
"Mac laptop" is not a computer, that is a set of computers with like 50 different models in it. You need to be more specific with what she has. I, for instance, have a Macbook, and can't run anything.
Also, stop thinking RAM determines performance...
I cannot even launch monster, I can stay in a world as long as I want in TPPI (albeit with 3 FPS)
3 FPS =/= running the pack...
If you can run it, but can't actually play it comfortably (20+FPS IMO), you can't run it.
I saw in the launcher that it was compatible for Magic World 2 also, and also seems more fitting for a world of magic.
Anyway, after browsing the Forum, I've noticed Agrarian Skies that, even if is hardcore, seems quite interesting.
Also, MW2 will be updated to the last version, before migrating to 1.7? Or was it updated already? I've been on the forum two days, so I have no idea what are the latest news
.I'm not sure. Honestly, I would take out the mods and update them all, if I were you.Also, MW2 will be updated to the last version, before migrating to 1.7? Or was it updated already? I've been on the forum two days, so I have no idea what are the latest news
its a macbookair[DOUBLEPOST=1402763897][/DOUBLEPOST]
And I'm not saying it determines preformance, i am saying thats how much you need minimum to get it to even load for you. you could have a great computer but it wont load up if you have 1gb allocated(and i have tried).
Again, there are a bunch of different Macbook Air models.
What you require to load =/= what others require to load
its a relitively old mac, thats basically all i know, my father had it for years
Well, lets get back on track after that small derailment. So it seems you are looking for a heavy magic and heavy adventure modpack. For that I do suggest maing your own pack because everyone has their own opinions on good magic mods and good exploration mods. Here are my suggestions
DartCraft
Thaumcraft
Ars Magica 2
Chocolate Quest (or Better Dungeons say it how you want)
Xenos Reliquary
Magical Crops
Witchery
These are all fun mods IMO.
If you want just an all around insane modpack that can be fun if you put a little effort into it i would suggest the madpack on the AT Launcher. Its insane but if that's what your into its perfect.
