No complete mod list yet, but I'll be configuring a ton of things that @SatanicSanta is too lazy to do. :p I'm working on TC shards, so TC will be very iron intensive.
not too lazy, don't want.
Will the mod list for the pack be different? Do you have a complete mod list yet?
Currently the only mod that I've added sicne the modlist was originally created was StartingInventory to give people enough stuff to make a nether portal.

I'm not really considering any more mods, honestly. I'm fine with having config support for certain mods like TC and RoC, but I don't think they are necessary in the main thing.

.. And you will be thrilled when I get witchery to work.

I'm telling you it won't work.
Ooh.

I can't remember, we're all of Calclavia's mods in there?

Will there be a special way to spawn starting in the nether?
Not all of his mods: MFFS, Resonant Induction, (is Mekanism by him or aidancbrady?), UE Core, and Cal Core.

I want to figure out how to do that, but I would probably need to write my own mod, which I don't feel like doing :P

I worked a little bit on the world today, I've got about half of the base done now.

Also, we now have a public google drive folder, it'll have things like changelogs, added recipes, modlists, etc.

Mekanism is Brady and it's no longer UE. Nice to see RI in a modpack.

Fair enough.[DOUBLEPOST=1398961794][/DOUBLEPOST]May I recommend oredicting Soul Glass and Heat Glass with glass using Minetweaker instead of using a recipe to turn them into glass?

They already use the glass oredict. But, since I don't feel like using a unifier or anything, i just added a second recipe.
 
Alright, after my vacation this weekend, I got some work done in the world/pack; mostly adding recipes for Slime Sapling and Rubber Sapling. Now MFR is actually usable :P

Now, onto the world, I got a Magma Crucible so that I don't need to fetch lava constantly :D

And, the base of Orthanc is coming along nicely, I'm still not sure about what to make the floor out of... It needs to be ghast-proof, thoughts?

@Zenthon_127 was right, Aqueous Accumulators will create water in the nether passively, VERY slowly. I'll end up just making a bunch of them to create a decent amount of water for my steam boiler. But, for now, I have this.

In the above picture you can also see that my Magma Crucible is gone. Yup. I decided I would just make a Portable Tank that holds 16 buckets, as the Magma Crucible was being stupid.

If I were you I'd build up the water until I had two buckets and then put it in an ender io resuvoir. Works in the nether

I've got a bit done recently. First of all, I added a new Minetweaker recipe to allow the Nether Seared Bricks to be used in the Tool Forge recipe.

And as you can see, I now have a Tool Forge. This allowed me to get a full-netherrack hammer :D

I continued work on Orthanc. First of all, I got the stairs on the first wall done. Then, I got the first layer of the floor partially done. I need two layers to completely prevent ghast damage.

And finally— WATER! I have 2 Resevoirs of water. Now, how do I turn this into an infinite water source like someone mentioned? I also got an Alloy Smelter and a couple Drying Racks to make Monster Jerky, but that's not very exciting.
