    The server now uses a very small resource pack for future new items. Players who already use a resource pack will be able to use the servers resourcepack without effecting their current ones. Future new items will not look any different if you do not accept the servers resource pack. The resource pack may expand to more blocks/items in the future and it would be advised to use the servers resourcepack fto experience full gameplay enjoyment on the server. If you have server resource packs disabled for our server you can enable them via the edit button in the server list.
     
    New Item(s):
    Treasure Chest Key - Opens a treasure chest

    A few players were having issues connecting to the FTB server due to using newer versions of FTBU and FTBL. I've updated both mods on the server to 1.0.13.3 so if you have an older version of those mods you will need to update them to join the server.

    The server should be up and running at the time of typing this. I'll type up a better post when I'm not about to fall asleep.
    The server is now running the modpack "Feed The Beast: Departed"
    The available commands are;
    /spawn
    /back
    /tpl <player> (Not sure if players have access to this)

    You will drop your items when you die. Your items will not drop into the world but will rather be on your dead body. Right click on the body to get to your dropped inventory.
    I added a couple mods which were not included with the modpack. These mods are REQUIRED to get on to the server.
    FTB Utilities
    FTB Lib
    You can add these mods to your mod pack by dragging them into your mods folder in the proper modpack client or you can use the FTB launcher to add them.

    Click on the Edit Mod Pack (Make sure you have the Departed modpack selected)

    In the next window click on the "Add Mod" button to bring up the file explorer. Simply navigate to wherever you downloaded the 2 mods to and add them to the pack. And that is all there is to do to get on the server.
    Good luck, Departed is very dangerous. Take the starter books advice, seek shelter IMMEDIATELY.

    Event
    Significantly lowered the drop rate on presents.
    Added more goodies to rare presents.

    World Portals
    World portals no longer teleport players to a specific area. They will now teleport players to a random location on a specific world.

    Worlds
    The Industrial Winter and Ice Dimension have been removed. Although these 2 worlds had interesting land generation and world mechanics they often confused the majority of new players. They also lacked player interactivity to warrant having the worlds running.
    With the removal of 2 worlds The Grand Frontier world has had its world boundary increased to 4000.

    Classes
    Ender Magi foci regen rate has been doubled.
    Ender Magi teleport should be more responsive.

    Solders crashing leap ability is much more effective now and should no longer prematurely trigger at the players origin location. It will also knock monsters up into the air and slow them down. This skill now deals damage to other players who are PvP tagged. Lowered the cooldown of this ability to 6 seconds.
    Soldiers have a new bashing ability. Sneak-Attack to bash an enemy back and slow them for a couple seconds. Bash has a 4 second cooldown.

    Seasonal and Holiday Events:
    Added Wintermas (Christmas) items to mob drops. These items have a chance to drop cosmetic unlocks.
    Started work on expanding seasonal and holiday events/items that only occur within certain seasons and or holidays.

    To see and or activate your cosmetics use the following command: /cosmetic
    The current seasonal event this month is Wintermas. Monsters, er-- Herogrinechs henchmen have been stealing presents from everyone! They have a chance to drop presents that can be opened. They may contain cosmetic unlocks which match the theme of Wintermas.

    Players should no longer drop their inventory when killed by another player (experimental) (Bug: Premium players will appear to have an empty inventory when they respawn from pvp death. This is not the case)

    Every so often a mod pack updates and contains various fixes, changes, and new mods. I went ahead and updated the servers mod pack to v1.6.1, however, some of the core api mods do not support Cauldron because it uses an older version of forge. Cauldron is no longer in development due to the Bukkit DMCA fiasco causing the developer to work on Sponge instead.
    Bukkit Forge allowed me to maintain a server that housed a plethora mods while maintaining support for plugins such as Towny, World Guard, Permissions (Ranks), Chest/Land protection. Without it the support for plugins is completely cut off.
    Luckily there are some forge mods which mimic the functionality of some of the important plugins such as /spawn, /back, /tpa, spawn protection. The mechanics I'm currently trying to fix are chest protections and town protection.
    The server is running at the moment but it is whitelisted while I try to find mods which can take on the role of the plugins that were running on the server. However, it is unlikely I will be able to return the functionality of Towny along with the currency system. It is also possible that the current world will become unstable due to major software changes combined with mod pack updates And I may change the mod pack entirely.I will be changing the mod pack entirely. Other mod packs do have containers which have native protection support.
    The current mod packs I am considering are:
    (Please note that the Myst mod will not be enabled)






    FTB Infinity Evolved


    Feed the Beast Infinity is a general all purpose modpack for Minecraft 1.7.10. It is similar to Feed The Beast Resurrection in that both packs have similar mods. FTB Infinity was added to the launcher on February 5th, 2015. It is mainly aimed at players who want to have all the different types of mods in one modpack. It contains ~150 mods and thus it's not recommended for low end computers.



    (This mod pack contains FTB Utilities which allows players to claim map chunks using an in-game GUI)






    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker


    Daybreaker is the sequel to the original Horizons, but updated and remastered for 1.7.10. It aims to show off new mods to the realm of FTB, such as
    Matter Overdrive for technology, Aura Cascade for magic, and even decorative mods like Ztones and AppleMilkTea. Horizons: Daybreaker finally brings the much beloved Mekanism and Galacticraft to the FTB world, demonstrating their power to a whole new audience.






    FTB: Departed


    Feed the Beast Departed is an exploration themed modpack for Minecraft 1.7.10. The player is challenged to survive in multiple environments and dimensions whilst exploring and adventuring.



    This modpack is centered around the
    Advent of Ascension mod.
    If you are interested in any of these packs please let me know.
