Premade packs have the advantage of being easier to set up and join.

Custom packs have the advantage of not having as many unexpected complications.

[RexMundi]

Personally, i prefer a little the premade, older ones though. THe tested ones where the configs are already set up well anyway.

Witchery seem to be quite interesting, don't know much about Blood Magic tough.

It involves lots of expensive rituals and blood sacrifice, and is generally a bit dangerous, but with effort you can get some pretty cool demon-certified magic items, including a blood-powered orb of destruction.

Also, thoughts on just running a premade pack, or only custom?

Honestly, the list is more for myself than anything. I took a look at ftb monster among other things and (after being amazed it actually loaded 180ish mods without optifine nor crashing) then closed minecraft because I had no idea what half of the stuff I'd just loaded was. I certainly would prefer a premade pack for the simplicity and the configs, but I'm not exactly sure I'd need such an impressive amount of moddage. (also performance concerns, etc.)

Any word on mekanism or roterycraft?

Not exactly sure what you mean there, if that was aimed at me.

[RexMundi]

both are mods, that are machine based. mekanism adds one custom ore (osmium, maybe others, only played in packs) and eventually, at late game, you can 4x ores. roaterycraft i like since never explored it, all torque and turning cranks and such. also, every late game ore 5xing

[Aklyon]

I already knew they were mods
And rotarycraft videos are what interested me in this current mc mods excursion through the wikis and threads in the first place.

[RexMundi]

if you add roaterycraft, may i request it's modmods two, reactorcraft and electricraft (and maybe one more i forget) form the same maker?

[Aklyon]

This is the whole reason I linked that list in the first place. Things on there I'm probably going to use if I end up making a custom pack. (otherwise its just a decent reference for me of what i've looked at the thread/wiki of and saw interesting.)

[RexMundi]

OH. color me a derp then XD

Question, is there currently any way to download a map from a server without having to have it sent to you in an email or something? Or is there a plugin for the current version to so that?

[Skyrunner]

iirc there is a mod that downloads parts of the server you've been to. So if you canvass the entire server you'd get the world map!

[Urist McScoopbeard]

thats cool! I'm really only interested in the build im currently working on so that actually might work out nicely! Do you remember the name or anything about it?

I've been using JourneyMap; requires Forge, has 1.6.4 and 1.7.2 versions, but nothing newer than that yet.  It's really useful to be able to export the map to an image file, to more easily park that on a second screen or share with others.

I've been using mod version 3.3.2, it's been behaving for me...  but they did just release 4.0 last week.  No idea how stable the new one will be.

I just replaced the thermal compound on my aging early 2012 notebook, now it's running at average 70 degrees with about double the framerate I was getting.
I was worrying that i might need to lay off the minecraft, since the regular spikes above 90 degrees were starting to cause BSODs. Has anyone else here got a problem with their mobile GPU absolutely refusing to devote any time to minecraft because of it being java?
I'm not finished though, It still gets damn hot with KSP so I'll be installing a couple of small fans into spaces I found while i had it apart.

Has anyone experienced the new snapshot stuff yet? I haven't gotten around to checking it out, but more ocean stuff is always cool even if it's not the type of ocean stuff I'd like most (actual animals, plants, and so on).
