GregTech Pack Suggestions

[Skooter42]

Hey everyone, I'm looking for some suggestions for a fun ModPack centered around GregTech. I've been playing FTB Interactions, and I'm not crazy about it. I'm not saying it's badly made or anything, it's just not for me. However, it has piqued my interest in playing a GT pack. By Gregtech, I mean GT Community Edition. Seems like that's the most recent one. So if anyone has any suggestions for a pack I could try, they'd be super appreciated. Here's a few of the things I'm looking for.

• An (Expert Mode) pack. Doesn't necessarily have to be expert mode or whatever it's called. But I'd like some difficulty.
• Quests, I'd really like something with quests.
• Recent Minecraft Version. I was considering playing GT New Horizons or Infitech, but I really want to play with some updated mods.
• I would like it to have GT as a big part of the pack, but not be the only option. I'd really like to see some of the other big names in it. Like the Thermal Suite, Mekanism, Botania, Thaumcraft, Astral Sorcery, Blood Magic, AE2. All the really big popular mods, plus anyone interesting lesser known ones.
• You've probably guessed this by the mod list I already stated, but I'd like a variety pack. With some Tech and some Magic. Preferably not just all Tech.
• Finally, I'd preferably like something that sticks with being in one or two dimensions, either Overworld & Nether, or a Skyblock. I really dislike when I have to travel all over like going to space/the twilight forest that to collect certain resources. Not dissing those mods, they have a place in packs. I personally just don't like using them. I'd rather just not have them in the pack if possible.

I understand this is a bit of a list, and not every single box has to be checked. But if anyone has any input or ideas, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advanced, looking forward to hearing everyones ideas!

Given that GTCE's most recent release is for MC 1.12.2, that's the latest you're going to get for any packs based on it, I think there's an ideal pack for you...

Omnifactory. It is heavily GT-centric, however there are other tech mods available. It's definitely an 'expert mode' pack, things are quite different, and recipes are tweaked so that there's an actual reason to build GT. There's not a whole lot of dimension hopping, other than maybe a trip or two out at the Nether to gather certain resources.
