Hello everyone. I was just curious if any information regarding any new packs has been released yet. I'm debating starting a pack, but if something new comes around I don't want to stop half way into a world. So, is there anything that may hint at some coming packs? Thanks.

I saw a semi-official tweet about a 1.8 pack being worked on last week... There's already a 1.8 version of Forge and I saw today a 1.8 version of FtB Utilities ( I'm assuming also FtB Tweaks since I think the same mod wrote both but I haven't verified that).

I don't know how many other mods are available but I'm interested in seeing what may be being built. :D

There's an Unstable pack on Curse, those are always fun. Living with the impending crash looming is always interesting. :D Don't be afraid to scrap a world and start over, that's half the fun for me.

I'm never afraid to delete a world and start over... I do it every time I update a pack to avoid issues. Heck, since Infinity Evolved I've deleted 90% of worlds without starting because I hate spawning on Mooshroom Island :D

I make a new world every time I switch back to a pack. It breaks the immersion for me to start playing a pack and find a fully implemented base with tech trees going past the mid game.

New and stable aren't familiar with each other. The devs try and introduce them. They won't have none of that nonsense though. When I have started playing a pack that takes my interest If a new pack comes along or a exciting addition is made to a existing pack it helps me to think that the longer I wait the less buggy the pack might be by the time I get there.

It also helps that last I checked new and discontinued don't know each other at all. I've seen packs disappear from their usual places. I haven't seen that many new packs disappear though. So enjoy what you are playing then when it gets old and boring, dump it for the newer more interesting pack.

Ugh, I deleted several world gens in a row for being mooshroom biomes. I finally gave up because for whatever reason the game seemed determined to make me spawn in mooshroom. So I decided to just travel and explore till I got away from it. 5000 blocks later :/. However, thats when I realized if you start out hunting villages and mining gravel, use a golden bag of holding and bunch of backpacks and a sleeping bag, by the time I stopped to build a base I was overflowing with resources. I also discovered that the dungeon with the end portal is within a couple hundred blocks of your original spawn point. :/
