Mostly because small custom mod pack makers usually don't try something as insane as cramming 80+ mods into one mod pack, that's why. Each mod you add to a pack increases the difficulty in getting everything bug free logarithmically,not linearly.
Logarithmic progression is slower than linear :p

I assume you mean exponentially, but geometrically is probably more accurate.

If anybody is really so eager to play 1.5, they should consider other options besides FTB. MultiMC for example. No better way to stay on the cutting edge than to update the mods yourself.

The problem arises when the FTB pack does actually come out and you are trying to transfer over. I'm not familiar with the underlying technicalities, but I'd imagine you'd need to have it configured similarly to what FTB packs use, especially as far as IDs are concerned?

Yes you would. Or you could change things later. You could use mIDas Gold and the mIDas Patch Maker to convert all the block/item ids in your world to the ones used in FTB, or you could change FTB's config IDs so they match your world. Or you could just not transfer your world over at all and keep playing with MultiMC. By the time the FTB pack DOES come out, if you've kept up with updating the mods you're using, you'll probably already be using newer mods than the ones in FTB.

Thank you, I'll look into those programs.

Once you learn to live without Redpower, you can enjoy every new mod on their cutting edge updates like I do. The only things I miss are the scythes.
It's become a bloatware in my eyes more than anything else now. Non-configurable worldgen for marble, volcanoes (if you can call them volcanoes), and way too big rubber trees.

*sickles.
The new version of Xycraft will have Scythes (or "Sythes" as Soaryn doesn't know how to spell correctly, as evidenced by his previous misspelling of the word "Aluminium")

Yes, yes everyone digs at Soaryn's "Aluminum" spelling (apparently Apple too) yet this is actually a valid American spelling. A few years ago one would write "Supher" yet nowadays it's been americanised into "Sulfer", so don't be surprised if Aluminium changes also.

Honestly though, from what I've seen between Mead and Dires vids, they need a longer range and more durability, despite being made of a mat more common than gravel.

Yup Lambert, wrong, for us at least.
I was at a spelling competition once, guess what the final word was?
Yup. Aluminium, guess who had been reading too much American things? Me.

It's not just the spelling... They raped the pronunciation too :/
I'm just having a light hearted dig at you yanks, please don't get your panties in a bunch. Yes I do believe the way you spell certain words to be wrong but the amount of fucks I give is equatable to the amount of Nitrogen atoms in a water molecule

I know that Greg (German however) always misspelt acquired, and has had this reported to him various times, particularly in the description if you obtain his meta-tile entity thing by accident somehow, like with NEI telling you what a block is before it has loaded.
What's annoying is that people are still reporting this, despite being only found in NEI show hints mode thingie by now, as they are Using ftb, and he is on 1.5.2.

I think we will all be thankful of America's big guns if North Korea take it too far, and start nuking from orbit. Big guns and a twitchy trigger finger would be very helpful there.

they'd have to get to orbit in the first place...

and no, we certainly won't be. If NK goes postal, America will respond, and then China will respond, and then Russia will respond, and then there'll be no nuclear winter for EVERYONE and the entire planet is fucked. Cept Australia... fucking Kangaroos...

The English language in general is full of inconsistencies and mispronunciations of words.

Color and Colour are both pronounced wrong. Get over it.
