[Let's Test Hexxit for Minecraft 1.7.10!]

when you are done crying like a baby you can take a few seconds to read the original post that Skuli posted

Apologies if I sounded whiny, I'm just saying I don't like a lot of what has happened to Hexxit. I appreciate you, and I appreciate Skuli for filling me in on missing details and things that I don't understand.

IF it makes you feel any better, Zelda Sword Skills is out in the next major update now that Legendgear has been updated; since there was no updated Legendgear until fairly recently, I stuck ZSS in to try to fill the Magic Boomerang/heart container gap, but it adds too much stuff I have no interest in, and is a MASSIVE memory hog. 

 

Lycanites' Mobs is still being evaluated, to be honest.  I'm doing the serious behind-the-scenes stuff now, like altering spawn rates and biomes, the hard boring stuff.  I enjoy the additional difficulty this mod adds, but I agree the overland spawns just feel weird and out of place.  It could be relegated to underground mobs and nether, we'll see.  I really don't like the ore mobs, they are just too much for new players.

 

I think you misunderstand the purpose of Ancient Warfare; it's far more an NPC-based automation mod than any sort of pvp thing.  The thought of having Buildcraft, Forestry, or Thermal Expansion in Hexxit makes my skin crawl, but with Ancient Warfare you can have a couple of NPC couriers running around carrying ore from your storage chest to your furnace, and carrying ingots back, or sorting your loot into their massive warehouse structure, while having to manage your NPC guards to keep the monsters from slaughtering all your helpless citizens.  It's been a lot of fun in my experience, and delightfully complicated, I'd recommend looking more closely at it...

But am I getting this right? Legend Gear has been updated and ZSS is being taken out? If that is so, my only very large complaint left is Lycanites Mobs. Even though a few of the other additions make me feel uneasy, ZSS and Lycanites Mobs are my two main complaints.

 

Again, sorry for sounding so butthurt, thanks to you both for responding, I really appreciate it. If at all possible, please return at least Asgard Shields and Immibis Microblocks. Those are both wonderful mods that really compliment Hexxit.

 

Thanks again guys, and I'll keep an eye on 3.0 builds as you say Skuli.

 

P.S. Skuli.. that name sounds familiar. Didn't you moderate The Mining Dead? I played that for a while. You're alright Skuli

[Let's Test Hexxit for Minecraft 1.7.10!]

I used to love Hexxit, but not anymore. Almost all of what has been added I hate, and I miss nearly everything that was taken away. Hexxit used to have a perfect balance of the simplicity of vanilla Minecraft, between the complexity of Tekkit. That's what drew me to it so quickly, it wasn't too complex, and it held adventure and dungeoneering above all! Now, I'm saddened at the directions the game has taken.

 

In my opinion, 2.0.0 and beyond has done nothing but spit on what was once an amazing modpack. When I saw Hexxit had finally updated, I was exuberant to say the least. However, my heart sank after I was exploring the new content on creative mode.

 

Mobs that don't even look like they belong in Minecraft, (Lycanites mobs) not to mention these mobs spawn in juxtaposed areas, like demon mobs in a castle fort?

 

Zelda Sword Skills nearly made me cry. What a horrible addition for Hexxit.

 

And why? Why take out Legend Gear, More Bows! Immibis Microblocks, and Asgard Shields?

 

I could write a five page paper on how Hexxit has destroyed itself in 2.0.0 and beyond. You'll never catch me playing any of those updates. It's 1.0.10 for me til I die. It'll be a sad day when any update past 1.0.10 is 'recommended'. If this post gets anyone's attention, and you would like to know more of why I think Hexxit has gone way downhill, let me know. Otherwise, I'll stop here before I make way too long of a post.

 

However, I will say some things that are good additions... Dynamic Lights, updating the Bibliocraft mod, RopesPlus, Better Archery is nice, and Ancient Warfare(maybe, seemed kind of buggy to me) Those are some great additions. But almost everything else sickens me, and everything that was taken away makes me sad.

 

I know I'm only one guy, but I fell in love with Hexxit once. Now, it has stabbed me in the back. Unless some serious changes happen, I'll only play 1.0.10

 

Here's a link to a page I posted on the Hexxit Wiki, about my opinions on all of the latest updates 2.0.0 and beyond
