... I may very well take up Minecraft after that modpack is released. This is truly an amazing story. Actually... it might be better if I focus on finals... Meh, I'm sure I'll do fine.
Glad you're enjoying it! If you have suggestions or requests feel free to leave them here. It's an interactive lets play! (to the extent possible anyway)
This is awesome.
I like the format, gives a better feel of what's happening in the game than the standard screenshot-caption-screenshot-caption stuff. The modpack looks impressive too. Can't remember if I saw Millenaire in the list, but are there plans to add that if it wasn't included?
Millenaire didn't play nicely with mystcraft unfortunately. I am going to work on that and see if I can get it working together.
Oh hell yes, I WANT that modpack 
after reading the first few pages of this I tried getting a few of the mods to work on my own but couldn't get much more than thaumcraft and one or two minor mods to load without crashing or ending up with a blank screen.
just so I know, how are you planing on making it available? (a simple link to a download page I'm hoping.)
Funny you should ask that right as I'm typing up the release post.
A simple link to a hosted file on dropbox is my plan for now. If I exceed the allowed bandwidth doing that I'll throw it onto my server.
So...
This is the Beta release of the modpack. I have not done everything I want to do with the settings and there may be a few bugs, let me know if it works for you.
This includes optifine... if you can't use optifine I will release a version later on without it. Its getting late though and this took a long time.
Also unfortunately I had to cut powercraft and twilight forest again for now due to a few more issues.
I do intend to reintroduce a texture pack at some point but I need to finalize everything first.
Download!Install instructions:
1. Begin with a fresh download of minecraft.
2. Open minecraft.jar using something like 7zip or winzip and DELETE META-INF
3. Extract the modpack
4. Copy all files from the 'jar' folder into the minecraft.jar you have open
5. Copy all files/folders from the modpack's .minecraft folder into your .minecraft base folder
6. Play ze gaem!
If for some reason this doesn't work, let me know what happened here. I am going to bed soon but I'll take a look tomorrow and try to help you out. I tested this with a newly downloaded copy of minecraft and it worked without any issues. If when you first run the game you get an idresolver screen saying something about unused settings, just select trim all unused settings.
There are some issues due to the number of mods in there. For example, both Mo Creatures and Better Dungeons add in horse mobs. The better dungeons horse mobs are not breedable and can be tamed just by slapping a saddle on. The mo creatures ones are tameable by feeding and can breed etc but use a special horse saddle.
Also NEI doesn't work 100% due to the number of items and the way I had to get everything working. Some items will look odd and won't work right if you simply give them to yourself. Some will even crash the game if you use NEI to give yourself the item, such as the pig spawner for some unknown reason. ?!?! doesn't make sense, but there it is. Just be careful and make backups. Playing the game without NEI cheats, I have encountered no major issues and never once crashed.
