Alright @Staxed and @Padfoote, I've begun Orthanc.

Also, from discussion with Padfoote on IRC, I think I may be releasing this pack on a launcher once I get everything set up, which will be once this world is "complete".

Edit: I should add that all of that stone took FOREVER to get. This is probably gonna be a big project.

Do you know how tall it's going to be, and how large the footprint is? Curious to see the size compared to the one I have planned :D

I don't know exactly what he's planning to do with the size, but I know in IRC he said that the base is starting out around y=37 or so.

So, since I plan to make this a public or semi-public pack, @trajing has agreed to help me test it :D

Also, mostly for my own future reference, I will probably be using lava -> solid fueled RC boiler for my power gen.

If this is gonna be public, you're gonna add RotaryCraft for water generation, right? I mean, just because your computer apparently = toaster, doesn't mean we shouldn't have a viable source of water that doesn't take trickery to work, right?

Hey, meet configurer Jr!
.. In all seriousness though, I'll be configuring a bunch of my favorite mods with this pack, and @SatanicSanta might, *might* put them in disabled by default. Did thaumcraft change its modpack policy, or will I have to just post the config on pastebin?
That said, I'm not sure about Ex Nihilo or Ex Aliquo either. Don't worry, SatanicSanta, composting can be disabled.

Perfect, now enable them without telling him. :p

I'll be in the configs anyway, Padfoote. :p

They're already enabled :p

yes
you can't really use it without having access to the overworld, however
I mentioned Ex Nihilo and Ex Aliquo for a reason however. There are a few ways to get shards with it. Some of them I'm not sure are possible in the nether, but I can always add extra recipes as soon as I figure out MineTweaker.

I wrote a guide for it, it's on the wiki. And again, Ex Nihilo/Aliquo seem useless to me. You can already get all the things necessary for the mods in the pack

If you have MFR (I'd check the mod list, but mobile posting sucks) I think the mining laser can spawn the infused ores. Oh, and if you want someone else to test, I'm up for it.

MFR is in the pack, haven't yet decided on how I'm going to get Rubber, so it's currently unusable. I'll figure out a recipe for rubber saplings.
