Use FTB Ultimate world in FTB Unleashed

[blackmax07]

Hello,
a few days ago I tried out FTB Ultimate and really liked it. But then I saw that the Ultimate pack is not updated anymore. That's why I wanted to ask if there is a possibility to use my world from the Ultimate pack in FTB Unleashed.
Is that possible in any way without any bigger problems?

Short answer: Without any bigger problems? No.

Unleashed is a successor pack in the vein of Ultimate, but is not a direct upgrade. Each have mods that the other doesn't. RedPower2 and GregTech are two notable mods in Ultimate that are flat out not included in Unleashed (one because it simply doesn't exist for this version of Minecraft, and one for other reasons I don't want to belabor here but that can be distilled down to mod game experience direction clashes). Even more prominently for your world, ExtraBiomesXL is not included as part of Unleashed and would need to be included separately on your own initiative, and without it you'd have some truly bizarre landscaping going on.

You could, with a lot of painstaking time and effort, translate the world across. By the time you did all that, though, you could've easily gotten yourself well-established in the Unleashed world in your own right. There's even one mod specifically (DartCraft) that helps shorten the "start of game" experience so you can get to building neat stuff. I would recommend starting fresh in an Unleashed world to save yourself time and frustration. You can also, of course, stick with Ultimate. It's not disappearing tomorrow, after all.

Hello Vauthil,
thank you for your fast answer. Don't feels good to hear that I have to start a new world again, already did that a hundred of times before when I was playing Tekkit. But now I know that. I already knew that there are some problems, but I didn't knew that they are so big.
