Mod Pack Update

[Wisdoms]

I found this site bookmarked, completely forgot feed the beast existed- considering it's lack of attentive staff on the FTB packs. First there was tekkit- then this, off to the next fad. Hopefully FTB will get back on track with updates THIS year.

He said he already finished testing the pack last night, and passed it up the chain. He said it generally takes up to 24 hours to get the pack on the site. That said it's the weekend so it's probably a loosey goosey 24 hours. I just can't wait to get my hands on 0.7, and so I'm watching these forums like a hawk. Lastly, Wisdoms you know they've updated all the current packs several times this year, added several new packs, and are continuing to develop even more?

Don't forget the maps, texturepack support, launcher design. Not to mention the other things the team has been involved with, E-sports, ModJam, going to the conventions.
They've been REALLY busy, with a LOT to show for it.

Okay, so a few things got updated overnight .. so we're adding in those, plus pushing in Power Converters as well. Don't say we don't love you.

As soon as the pack works, it'll go up into the repo.

I'm actually not handling this one .. Slow's doing the revision and test. So you know it'll get done and pushed upstream

Me? I'm going to actually *play* on my server. Might stream as well. Because, why not.

Any kind of ETA?

And did EBXL and/or BOP get included in this latest 'build'?

And no, as has been said more than a few times, biome mods are not part of the packs. If they are included, they will be disabled and it would be up to the player/server to enable them.

As Wyld said, ready when it's ready, and that's why I've been throwing ideas at the wall with some BoP configs.

Does this mean another 24 hour waiting period?

Does this mean another 24 hour waiting period?

No no no. It's not spelled hour. It's spelled week. 24 week waiting period.

By the way your going to be one of the ones waiting for this pack to be updated to 1.6 aren't you. :/

 

[mr10movie]

Depends on how long that takes

That would be... Forever.. This pack is only gonna be for 1.5.2. Not gonna get updated to 1.6 (unless things have changed.)

 

[Tyrellan]

Not gonna get updated to 1.6 (unless things have changed.)

Actually they've said many times 1.5.2 will be a private pack; and the next official FTB modpack will be 1.6 (but I wouldn't expect that for a while - depending on how Mojang handled the Mod API (if they even release it with 1.6)).

 

[mr10movie]

I know, but I am gonna use this pack till ultimate 1.6, then see if the world gets corrupted when I copy it over. If it does, woohoo, new world , and if it doesnt, I get to keep my machines and my precious iridium ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Funny you should mention that.

OK going to try this again. New pack due to go public tomorrow. Just need some art and a name for the pack. This pack will (cont)
replace Ultimate as our Feature pack. (Ultimate will remain on the launcher at 1.4.7 ) (thats better)

Way to make lairs out of so many of us.

 

[Daemonblue]

Hopefully that "tomorrow" means later today, but I won't keep my hopes up. Also, there is a link to a spread sheet and it looks like they have some more mods they're putting into v0.7, but they're crashing.

 

[AshtenD]

For the lazy, the link to the spreadsheet is here.

 

[umbrai]

Ah, well that ain't gonna happen. Some of the GregTech changes are hard-coded. At least, I couldn't figure out how to remove the flint & steel thing I mentioned earlier....

I'm not sure why this doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere, but the option for this is called namefix, under harder recipes, in the dynamic config (turns it back to an iron bar for me).

Really? Bah! I looked everywhere... No wonder I couldn't figure it out. *sigh*

And Slowpoke (on twitter: posted 36 hours from now (which was about an hour ago) - so I'm guessing that means Monday afternoon (give or take I would assume...)

Hi,

Can anybody tell me if the 1.4.7 version of the Ultimate Pack contains the latest versions of the mods ? When I say latest version it's latest 1.4.7 version of the mod of course, and thanks

Depends on your point of view: Are they the most current? No - but are they the latest 1.4.7 mods? Mostly, yes.

Most developers stop updating for a particular version of minecraft - after a new version comes out (like Buildcraft, or Computercraft)
