The Future of the Forbidden Magic

[Lukii]

How SpitefulFox announced this thread, forbidden magic will no longer be updated by him to the most recent versions of Minecraft. So I decided to update the mod, completely rewriting.

But this discussion is to get ideas for the mod. So if you have any idea who would want it implemented the mod or a suggestion for improvement for any item, feel free to post.

Im curious (since I did not check the thread) why is @SpitefulFox no longer updating it?

Q: When is 1.7 FM coming out?
A: I'm really busy with school right now and, quite frankly, don't have any desire to keep jumping MC versions after all the antagonism and ill will Mojang puts towards the modding community. I just don't have the time or motivation to update.

I thought someone already took over the mod in 1.7?

Flaxebeard and Democretes were going to continue to work on it but it kinda got scrapped for another project flax was working on.


In reguards to this topic, what changes do you plan on making?

Sorry for the delay responding. But I do not intend to make changes to things that already exist in the mod because I like him as he is.

I want, first, rewrite mod (obviously), and start now to work on ideas that SpitefulFox left the mod, starting with Demmon Summoning.

Ah That's a relief... Though I do hope you keep to his writing style, That was for sure one of the best parts of the mod. His entries were rather humorous. But what are some of your idea's for mixing up FM when it comes down to it? Are you going to redo the shards method of obtainment? To what extent do you plan on rewriting it?

This is why 1.6 will probably be my last modded Minecraft version.

Don't give up yet! 1.7 will almost guaranteed bring all sorts of new fun mods to the floor. Unless you are hoping on keeping the same world as 1.6.4
Honestly, this talk of maliciousness on the part of Mojang is a little ... steeped with bs. They just want their game to be as clean as possible for the plugin api (reasonable).

I don't consider them malicious. I'm just tired of the dealing with new stuff. I've been using alpha and beta versions since 1.5. I've broken a test server with my builds on more than one occasion. I'm at the point where I can start to understand devs getting tired of the scene and giving it up. I'm still having fun in 1.6 and I'm honestly on my 8th or 9th world. That's not counting server play in 1.6 before TE dropped in that version of MC.

I hope 1.7 pans out but the way its looking I'll probably wait until 1.8 to update. That's if I'm even still playing at that point. Right now I've taken the Resonant Rise pack and custom fit it to my play style. I'm happy with it and its not overtaxing my system.

More on topic, I really enjoy FM and the other TC addons. I'd like to see it continue to grow and stay in development.

Some of the things that are added to 1.8 may open the door for some crazy things that mods can do, inventory and world-gen cleanups, block states instead of meta-data. Sticking around might end up being a lot of fun .
Also on the topic, I really never played any Thaumcraft, just did a lot of scanning

It's sorta a mixture of things that are kinda going on for FM in itself. With the condition of Kami and it's research all research to obtain a high level tool, it get's a rather unfair shtick, from tt users. Essentially it's viewed as a gate in their way rather as a mod of it's own to be appreciated. And with how quickly mojang is updating and how quickly fans tend to expect the update to come.. It's just sorta led to a bit of a distate for the start of the community as a whole. The few that enjoy fm suffer due to the masses that scream at modpack teams that add another addon that conceptually blocks their path to godhood.

But to be fair I don't blame him with all the drama surrounding modding for this game draws. And with the continual update vomet mojang's putting out it's proving impossible for modded minecraft to keep up. While everyone is still updating to 1.7.2 which seems to be hitting some mod authors like a wrecking ball, others easily scit by, only to hear, "But minecraft's on version XXXX." Not to mentoin the pressures of trying to keep modpacks happy and content..

Why make free content for people that are just going to be mad at you when the game engine run by a large team is pushing out updates faster than a machine gun shoots out bullets?
