How do you get it to run not like stuff?

Terrafirmacraft is arguably a nice "resourceful" mod - in terms that it's a nice deviation from the standard "chop chop mine mine" sort of thing. But there's so much work to be done to actually make it truly enjoyable - unlike in the default Minecraft where there's reason behind progression, TerraFirmaCraft doesn't really follow the same guidelines, and it's progression is all over the place. Not like it's a bad thing, because you can physically do whatever. But - there isn't any reason beyond any form of progression in TFC, whether you have copper or [x out of tons of ores and alloys tools] tools, it doesn't really feel like making a justifiable difference, given how much of a hassle mining is as well.
TFC is the sort of "awesome stuff" that proves realistic concepts, while in essence bring a new, neat, expansive and immersive form of gameplay, it completely breaks any form of enjoyment with the same gameplay after, I don't know, max 2 hours of gameplay where only then you get your first metal tools, and then you realize there's no point in doing anything else.

It's Minecraft. Build stuff.

TFC is justifiably nice for building with the plank things, but at the same time I don't like them either - I think they are way too small to be fitting, they should just be 1/3 of a normal block, not like 1/16.
Beyond that, not much can be improved by TFC @ building.

if i use these shaders i will get -1 fps (-1 fps=game crash or computer crash)

Aether and Divine rpg were probs 2 of my fav mods

aether is just gone and I think the creator of divine rpg replaced it over this other mod they're making.
What about the Aether 2 mod?


oh dang I thought that was dead
According to the website it's alive and well; but it's still on 1.7.10.


i managed to load aetherii and twilight forest mods on my server using forge, had to host a 1.7.10 server for it though.
