Natural Essence [Ideas] - 1.7.10 (+60 mods) Natural based SMP.

[Stealhelm]

I'm sorry for the inconvenience but the modpack will be delayed until I get a windows installation to boot properly. Expect another week or so before the modpack can get released in any way or shape. Still awaiting approvals for some mods. But I will do my best to release it before I go on a vacation next week! //Stealhelm

The Release has been delayed 1 week or so because of hardware related issues. I will not go into detail about what sort of issues I'm experiencing because of time consumption. However, I came prepared for this, so right now, I will be building the modpack from a 64-bit XP, and I can assure you that no progress has been lost because of the hardware issues. Expect a release till next weekend if everything is functional till then. //Stealhelm

I have something in work already. A modpack that puts the Nature of Minecraft in focus. Adding Natural mods is of course my main focus right now. So far I have these mods fully loaded and working correctly. I have configured them, but only briefly. I have added custom textures & sounds to some of the mods.

All mod authors will be credited and a link to their forum threads or desired site/sites will be included. Currently, I'am not authorized to use any of these mods. Something I will seek permission for before releasing ofc.

NOTE: I will update this thread, when I have all the links for the mods!

It looks pretty cool, it doesn't contain the usual mods you would see coming from the third party forum. I will definitely give it a try! A pretty good title as well, it made me want to click it

Good to hear that Yes I devoted a long time over the title. I think it came out decent. You got any favorite mod you wan't to include in the pack? I'm always searching for more mods to include.

Anyways, thanks for your comment, It's really appreciated!

Not any I can come up with off the top of my head. I noticed Animals+ is in the pack. Is that allowed. I'm pretty sure its blacklisted for public modpacks. Anyway if you are looking for beta testers I will help out

I didn't know of that, I will have to look into it. Good to hear that I will publicly upload a alpha test next week, if I have the time, and internet to. But atm, there is alot of things still needing fixing.

Sounds cool. If you are not sure about what mods you are allowed to use, check out the permissions spreadsheet:http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/permissions-spreadsheet.50035/

No problem. Just one question, is this pack focused around building? It doesn't seem to have mods which go really in depth. Nothing wrong with that though Suggestion: Could you add botania? It's a magic mod based around nature.

No, the pack is simply focused around improving the nature of Minecraft & exploration. But I will perhaps add mods to improve & or add(on) to the current building of MC. However, that's a future plan. I will look into adding botania, Thanks for your suggestion!

I suggest Butterfly Mania, but I dont if it works with other biomes mods.

So excited to finally see a pack with plant mega pack in it! It is one of my favourites!

I will surely take a look at it Thanks for leaving your ideas!

It will be even better with the mods I'm planning on adding later. Structures are still being created and added. It's your experience I'm trying to satisfy, not mine. I hope you will like the final result as much as you seemed hyped about it!

Have a good day!
