I have a FAQ on the main page that even the laziest person can easily navigate in seconds that answers this question in detail, and even links to a post that goes into even MORE details behind the reasoning. World corruption is only a single issue and a largely outdated one. That said, my position on mods is likely to change when we get some official mod support going.
As it is, mods are a huge pain in the ass. I've been around for so long that 90% of the mods I've used in the past no longer even exist because they were broken by updates and the authors either just got tired of trying to keep it up to date, or just lost interest in the game. Add this to the fact that to stay on top of my texture pack work, I have to always be running the pre-release builds which very few mods can even keep up with. At the moment most mods are still in 1.8 support only, which from a development standpoint is ancient history to me. So until there is some degree of guaranteed permanence for mods without being under constant threat of being destroyed by an update, there is absolutely no reason for me to support any more mods than I currently do. It's too much of a risk of wasted effort right now.
Misa I have a question I love your texture pack and everything about it but I want to retain the Dokucraft wood, and I'd also love it if I were allowed to customize your pack to a point were I would be enjoying myself to its point of acme. I love grammar it makes a lot of people seem smart. Even though I am a math matician. Anyways can't wait for your answer. Love the texture.

Usage of the word 'acme' in a sentence would be a love of vocabulary, not grammar. As it is, your grammar is pretty hard for me to understand. You claim to have a question and await an answer, but you didn't even ask me anything. :/
IC2 and BC are no more crashy than the game itself is atm, even on a server. and as far as changing or corrupting a world these are mods you want to start new on anyway. They add another layer of play all together. It becomes a totally different game. I have my tree quarry always running, and I try to have a reg quarry going at all times to keep raw materials coming in.
Yes If I remove the mod the world will lose a lot of bits but then again its all the extra bits. It's chocolate Ice cream vs Vanilla Ice cream. you can't just take out the chocolate and expect to get vanilla.
Industrial/Buildcraft both heavily modify the .jar and can corrupt saves, and are thus not going to be supported by Misa.

I had asked if it was okay if I could customize your texture to have the doku craft wood and I'm so stupid its always grammar not vocabulary.I also wanted to know if you could add a customizer for hose who want the pack in a different way.
is anyone getting an error with the new MC-patcher's HD font thingy? (in MC 1.0) With the HD font patch on, everything is condensed and barely legible, and with the patch off everything is zoomed so far away. Could anyone help?

I'm still not clear on what you're asking.. If this is for permission on making a remixed pack and redistributing it, you need to ask permission in a PM, not my thread. If this is for personal use only, you don't need permission to edit my pack. In regards to a customizer, I've already included an alternates.png file which contains a ton of alternate textures you can copy and paste into terrain.png with any graphics editor that supports transparency. My pack's contents are way too complicated to make use of the currently popular customizer tool.

Blah, I wasn't even aware 1.0 was out already. Guess I gotta stop having fun and go update the pack... Edit: Oh and I just downloaded the latest MCPatcher and checked on my currently uploaded pack, and you shouldn't be getting an error if you're using the latest versions of both. (Or you're using the crappy old font, in which case you forgot to delete the default.properties file in the font folder.)
Oh god... Mediafire isn't uploading my files anymore. It seems to be eternally stuck on a 'queued' status. Anyone know a good free filehost that has unlimited bandwidth? I'm not seeing how I'll be able to properly update the pack at this point. Be sure to not suggest Megaupload, Rapidshare, Dropbox, Filedropper and File Den, those all have limited bandwidth.
anyway, the runes look great, but they threw me at first. I was trying to read them like runes (eth, thorn and the like). Finally pieced together that they should be read as the regular roman letter they vaguely resemble. I do sort of miss seeing the galactic standard alphabet again though. all those years since Keen :sad.gif:
pros- you are able to save as many files as you want. 1 file is limited to 2GB.
cons- Download speed is limited to >300 kb/s for non-premium users. And of course you will have to use a translator.
But does it have unlimited download bandwidth? And are the download queues friendly to English-speaking users? Basically I need something that most people will have no problem downloading from. And and it needs to be able to take a rapid onslaught of thousands of users in a short timespan without giving a "you've run out of bandwidth" message.
Edit: I just tested and answered my first question. It's not intuitive enough for most users since you have to click one of two buttons and put in a captcha code to download..
I'm gonna try installing a new browser and seeing if I can get Mediafire to upload my files through that.
Edit 2: Phew, a new browser did the trick. Uploading the update now. The Main thread will be updated shortly after that's finished.
Okay, the texture pack's been updated. I'm sure I missed some stuff on the changelog since I've kinda been working on the pack and off, and lately I'm way too consumed with Skyrim.
Hi Misa! The texture pack is amazing! Problem loading 1.0 update though. See attached photo. Font is all whacked. I followed your instructions perfectly. I was using the previous version without any issues. Made sure no other mods in mcpatcher are affecting your pack, I've only patched your pack. This is the result...

Let me know if there's something from Mcpatcher that you'd like to see, but it does show your texture pack as installed without any issues.

And thanks so much for all your hard work. Go enjoy Skyrim again; I'll be getting myself once I finish Jurassic Park: The Game, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Assassin's Creed: Revelations, and Arkham Asylum (yes I fell behind in that one). Too many great games coming out right now.

Not to mention, they totally ruin the game IMO.

Thank you,

Same happened to me!!
You need the HD Font support from MC Patcher
Hate how the water changes color in random places but I know that isn't your fault. :tongue.gif:
