Magiculture 2, Update 0.8.7.0
The Manuscript Update
This update is a massive overhaul to the quest book. It has been expanded to over 1,200 quests. However, this massive expansion is not intended to extend playtime, as the prestige quest paths have largely remained the same. The bulk of new quests come in the form of side-quests, built to showcase lesser used portions of the mods in the pack.
As a side note, if another person asks me how to craft Thaumium I'm going to throw my **** keyboard through a window. -Invader
Update Notes:
- Effort has been made to ensure that this update does not require a new world. However issues can occur so please backup any saves prior to updating.
- The questbook has been massively overhauled so please use the "Quest Debug Wand" after updating the pack to ensure you have the most recent version of the questbook.
- While not required, it is **recommended** to reset any previously completed quests. This can be done by using the "Wand of Rebirth" which will completely reset your character (quest, skills, and mod knowledge), or by using the command "/bq_admin reset all <player>"
- Should you choose to not reset your quests, no serious issues will occur, there will simply be unlocked and completed quests scattered throughout the new quest trees.
