oh, i was told that the FTB would never support it.. What i heard. Oh well
The word "support" generally refers to Tech Support. FTB Tech Support doesn't provide support for added mods, because it is the FTB Tech Support. FTB Unleashed + Mekanism is not FTB Unleashed anymore. Think of it like overclocking, yes it's the same product, but you have added something to it, therefore voiding your warranty.
Also like Eya said, many mods have graphical things that Optifine does not support, same with FPS Plus and FPS Plus+ (when I installed the latter when attempting to get above 2fps in an old pack all of my Ti C tools lost the visual of the upgrades, and additionally almost every single texture in the world was completely broken).
This thread doesn't exactly offer direction, is it about modpacks or forum or everything in general?
I think FTB is fine as is. Well the forum could use more smileys. 12 is clearly not enough... need moar
We need Kappa and FrankerZ.
