NAEM! stands for Not Another Ex-Nihilo Modpack! and it isn't. (Just Another Ex-Nihilo Modpack).
Storyline:
You are the last hope for mankind. In a human experiment gone wrong, the entire world was destroyed but some floating islands. You must now find a new home. You must go to space. It may take months, it may take years, but we can make rockets out of compost!
In case you didn't read the storyline, this is a Galacticraft skyblock. The mods are finished, now I'm just working on the starting inventory and HQM part. The HQM is going to be mostly for story and tutorial perposes, the modpack is primarily going to be made as a sandbox-like game (The way Minecraft was intended to play!) The modpack is intended to be automated as soon as possible, so TS2014 is installed. (Mash sneak to grow trees)
[EDIT: 3/1/15]: Removed some mods. Will re-upload modlist when I upload the modpack.
The mods are all initializing nicely (It Boots to Menu) now I am just tweaking and adding HQM.
The forge load time on my machine is 1 minute 30 secconds. 180 mods. Holy Crap!!!
I hope, and expect to have the modpack uploaded somewhere within the next month. (EDIT)
Feedback is appreciated. Thanks!
The idea sounds great!...and the storyline is decent but maybe add a little bit more roleplay feel if you know what I mean. May I ask what the goals are? (If there are any)
