They aren't doing it on purpose. I just don't think they see a need.Why do you think Hat Films would purposely keep you from using the server files?
Is there something wrong with just copying over the mods and configs? You can use any pack's server files.Well i'd like to play on a private server with my friends using Hat Pack. Every other pack has server files.
They use FTB because it's easier for their subscribers to play along. They don't plan on everybody setting up a server,And since Hat Films play on a server for FTB, either they have server files that that or they just have all the mods in a modded server. And if the latter is the case, why even use FTB?
