Alpha 1.0, Live! (Hopefully!)

Okay, today is (hopefully) the day! The (surprisingly more cheerfully atmosphered) Endymion modpack is going to hopefully get added to technic, then downloaded, then server-functional! *crossing various digits that it works*

Edit: Uploading has consumed my morning >< So close though!

Welcome!

I think we're going to go with Terminal Days as a name/theme for this modpack - I'd like to have the feeling of a damaged world where we're the only inhabitants, there's still some structures and ruins left, and we're barely clinging on, trying to survive. That being said, I think the Wasteland mod is too extreme, and so we're going to try to cut it down a bit and hopefully throw in some forests of some variety to make it not such a headache.

This is the current mod list. Please feel free to nitpick these, ask about any others you might want, or shoot down any that don't seem right, and we'll go from there until we get this perfect! I want a pack that we can comfortably play for months without going "fuck it, bored now"


Without further ado....

Wasteland - Makes the world crapified - red sand, dead trees, etc.
