It was said this will replace ultimate as the signature pack for FTB, so he's not that far off :O
Fair enough. But that's just cuz they aren't going to update any of the 1.4.7 packs anymore; specially with 1.6 around the corner.

*keeps looking for 0.7 and begins pacing...*

Yes, from the FTB Twitter: https://twitter.com/FTB_Team/status/348715875752361984

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 replace Ultimate as our Feature pack. (Ultimate will remain on the launcher at 1.4.7 ) (thats better)

And yes, I'm very fond of Sphax myself, but assembling a pack manually with all the different mod patches is a real pain in the butt, so I was wondering if we'd see an official texture-pack for this mod pack now it's going to be an all grown-up official public pack of awesomeness.

Yep. The pack is completely ready. Simply waiting on repo team to get everything set up and shoot it live! Excitement.

Thanks Wyld and the FTB Team! Also to Myrathi for fixing up that last little bug!

Has there ever been official support? The stuff on the launcher is stuff they promote, but they dont' support it... (as far as I know).

And again, Soartex does it all for you - just download the downloader from his website. (google it, I think it's like soartex.com or such)[DOUBLEPOST=1372240840][/DOUBLEPOST]

Then it's not truly ready :)

But yes, thanks to Wyld and Slow and everyone that's worked on this. I'm really looking forward to it.

The reason Sphax isn't on there is because the sphax liscense specifically states that the base sphax texture pack cannot be distributed at all.

Lol, okay okay. Thanks for all the info. I'm happy to together a Sphax pack myself once the pack is live :D
I would start piecing it together now. :)

The only bad thing with Sphax (and it's why I switched to Soartex) is he doesn't cover all the mods FTB uses...

I put one together for 0.5 and I think it covered about 90% of the mods. You have to piece together some of the WIP mods yourself though, like EE3.

Most texture packs don't. The sheer volume of mods in FTB (especially in ultimate) is quite a massive task to texture.

Well then you're pretty much set :) Except for a few additional mods. :)

True, that's why I really like that Soartex pack. Being able to chose what mods you want from a list (with version numbers) and such is pretty damn awesome. :)

Yes. The server is included.

Edit: Please, keep in mind that Biomes O'Plenty is disabled by default. If you wish to enable it, you will have to manually enable it by Edit ModPack. Enable (I think) For servers... I am unsure as I only play SSP.

I think they mentioned they were going to have some of the biomes disabled, because there's so many... but I guess you'll have to wait and see.

I am no official for the FTB Team, but while Wyld was testing, he didn't mention disabling anything, so I believe it is default. Not 100% sure though ^^()

Well I'm fairly sure it won't be default because of ID changes to fir with the rest of the pack. As for the rest of it though we'll have to wait and see /sigh

Wyld's said BOP will be disabled from the start.

But enabling it easy: You simply click 'edit pack' (after it's downloaded; so you'll update - then exit to enable the mod) - moving it from disabled to enabled list; and then again launching the pack. It'll have the config files all ready there and to go.

We were discussing whether it would have a default config or not - about disabled biomes, we know the mod is disabled by default :)
