How do you enable hardcore questing mode?

[Catts]

Like the title says... i created a world with hardcore... still says its disabled.

[Melfice]

I believe it has been disabled to accommodate the storyline better. Unless you go config diving, I don't think it can be activated.

Thanks for the response, kind of a bummer... that was actually the reason I downloaded the pack... a minecraft that was actually hard.

oh its does become more difficult when enabled, give it a try

[Mr. Noms]

Hmm, I've done said config diving... It was was enabled for me already.

The actual hardcore mode of HQM is not meant to be enabled, there are already consequences for death other than just losing your entire world. If you really dig into configs, yes you can turn it on so you only have limited lives, but I personally don't see a need for this. If you really want to, just reply I can probably get the file location for you.
