🔺 Credit & Special Thanks:

A special shoutout to ChaosZpack v1.2.9 TacZ — a foundational mod and inspiration behind the E.A.S.T. experience.
Without it, the modular tactical systems and survival horror aspects wouldn’t have been possible. ChaosZpack’s integration with TACZ, cinematic tools, and immersive enemy design powers the heart of this modpack.
Massive credit to the ChaosZpack team for pushing Forge capabilities to their limits.
