This pack is ever evolving. The 'core' concept behind the pack is to help the player discover and explore the world which is why we recommend using OTG as the level generator. OTG and Biome Bundle combine to create very interesting worlds to explore ... from the sky to bedrock. We encourage new players to explore a bit before they settle down. It's very likely that you'll find that 'perfect view' and when you do, there's plenty of tech and magic to keep you busy for a long time.

As far as getting started in this pack, it's recommended that players go straight into Tinkers Tools. So the first thing you want to do is get yourself a set of Tinkers tools and tables. From that point on, food and shelter should be your priority. Now, we encourage exploration but there is one thing you should be aware of: Each night has a chance of spawning a blood moon. During a blood moon, you're unable to sleep and the rate of hostile mob spawning is increased greatly on the surface.

Now, in addition to the mods I've already mentioned, there are many other mods in this pack which for all intents and purposes could be considered a 'kitchen sink' pack because the config changes are very light and intended only to reduce the number of ores in the game and to eliminate game breaking bugs. The 'core' mods in this pack are the common mods that you'll see in almost every other pack: Refined Storage, Botania, EnderIO, Tinkers Construct, Draconic Evolution, Storage Drawers, Mekanism, etc. but the 'peripheral' mods in this pack are going to change somewhat frequently. New mods will be added, as they're released, based on what they might bring to the experience and mods might be removed depending on what it is they do and whether or not players are using them. Some of these changes may scar the world when a mod is pulled making it somewhat preferable to reset the world to ensure that the world you're playing in is pristine. For this reason, we do not recommend that anyone actually use this pack if they're looking for something consistent that they can run on a server for months and months. That being said, this is not an 'expert' level pack so experienced players can reach end game pretty quickly making the possibility of starting over less daunting. For our part, the primary purpose of uploading this pack to Curse is to make it easier to distribute updates to the players on our servers. Because of this, we do not plan to 'advertise' this pack but should you somehow manage to find this pack and think: 'Yea, I'll give it a go.', consider yourself forewarned.

Now, there are a lot of mods in this pack. Not as many as other packs but still, its not 'light'. I happen to use 8GB of memory with this pack. I will not claim to be an expert in mod memory management but I've found that my experience is smoothest at that setting. Your mileage may vary.

Most of the mods in this pack are distributed from Curse apart from Mekanism from aidancbrady. We appreciate all of the hard work that each of the developers have put into their mods. Truly...thank you.
