spiekman168 Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 I feel like mod packs are being abandoned. I think this because first with tekkit, after 1.2.5 they move on to tekkit lite, when have they ever updated since tekkit lite? Then just recently they got a space tekkit (i like to call it that), so are they abandoning the packs or making more and updating the others very slowly? Quote
Maxis010 Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 The packs are archived, not abandoned, the only pack that has been abandoned is Technic (SSP) because it was merged into Lite which was created when the team stopped waiting for BukkitForge to update Any official pack in the launcher is still being supported even if it's not being updated Right now the active packs are Tekkit, Big Dig and Voltz AFAIK Quote
Torezu Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 Tekkit Lite is to some degree active, but there isn't a lot of point in updating it, since the two (imo) largest, most complex mods in it, IC2 and RedPower, haven't hit 1.5.x yet. Quote

dwwojcik Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 I would argue that Technic wasn't abandoned, it was ended outright. Deleted. Poof. In my opinion, an abandoned pack would be YogBox. Neither Technic nor the Yogscast have shown any interest in updating it for a long time. Nearly a year since 1.2, right? IDK, I started playing minecraft midway between 1.2.5 came out and 1.3 Tekkit lite is no longer in the spotlight, but if RedPower and IC2 ever do update there will be demand for a pack with those in it, and I suspect the Technic crew would rather update Tekkit Lite than adding them in to TekkitMain.

theprolo Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 The maker of YogBox disappeared ages ago, which is why there's a lack of updates. Technic got merged with Tekkit Lite. I wouldn't have minded previous versions being available, but in reality it was made redundant and useless by the merging of SMP and SSP. It had no future, basically, or at least not as Technic.

dwwojcik Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Ahh. I didn't realize that there was a third party involved in the Yogbox. It was before my time. Quote
