You know what I just thought of? I have a small (50 or 60gb cant remember) ssd and Windows is taking up all but 10gb and 1gb of that is taken up with minecraft stuff and 2 more gb is taken up by other programs and files so I only have like 6 gb to work with, leaving 1 to spare.

I can't get to it either :/

 

[Arkandos]

Oh. I have no problem accessing it anyway

 

[xbony2]

It seems to be back, but running slow. Might of been DDOSed, but not necessarily cause IC2, the main server has some other more popular sites.

It's been patchy recently, quoting for example seems to have been broken somewhat.

 

[Pyure]

It was definitely down for a while @xbony2 , you aren't losing it.

I don't know how many people noticed, but Plant Mega Pack is officially dead as of yesterday.

And the forum topic is now closed, with all download links removed.

Another boring and uninteresting knee-jerk reaction.

I've never used that mod, so I don't know much about it. I suppose it's closed-source with nobody to continue it?

Brief hunt about suggests exactly that.

If people liked it enough, its hardly a big deal: modders will clone the creative content they like.

It was a really nice mod. He was working on it A LOT right before he decided to quit and pull all download links. He just finished making every single aspect of the mod configurable through the in-game configs.

Eh, the mod was not a particularly popular one, I know of no major modpacks which used it. I would guess because most of the plants it added were decorative or had minimal usage.

Like I was saying dude there are alot of childish people in the modding community.. Think under 18

I could think of a good handful of under 18 modders that completely break this stigma

True

Childishness and age: correlation does not imply causation.

Would anyone here have guessed I was 16

Definitely. Strikingwolf too fwiw.

Edit: which isn't an attribution to maturity or anything inasmuch as language idiosyncrasies.

 

[KaosRitual]

How many of the people on here are actually over 18? Seems to be a lot of young 'uns around here.

I was fairly close to this one. Over the course of two days he went from talking to me about close mod integration and big plans, to committing to near-term bugfixes, to scrubbing himself and his work out of existance.

This isn't exactly the first time. He pulled his mod after the Erik EULA reddit fiasco as well, before eventually picking up again. If this is how he deals with uncertainty, then he shouldn't be modding for any game. In the end, everyone is worse off. He wasted a tremendous amount of time and anyone else interested in making a creative plant mod may have been discouraged because 'there's already that mod'.
