Triforge [Legacy]

This has been the most enjoyable experience trying all sorts of Vanilla Plus Modpacks.
Well worth a try for a SMP Server.
Worth to keep in mind most of my friends trying this modpack has had the same minecraft crash when launching the game and cant seem to find a fix, after some restarts it somehow just boots up but can take a long time to get it up and running

This pack has tons of things to do, and plenty progression paths to follow as well as charms to collect, a "hardmode" of its own based on said charms that will allow you to use other special charms, places to explore and just has its own general aesthetic that is pleasing in its own right. Even if you are one who thinks they cant do without tinkers, AE2 and Thermal Series, give it a try. If you can, I would HIGHLY recommend getting a small group or community together to play this, it really enhances the experience and is the way its intended to be played.

There seems to be a stability bug that causes the MC instance to hang when launching for some. Done a lot of trouble shooting and when I finally made it to the discord (which was difficult due to broken links) I found that it's a known issue, linked below.

The modpack author is developing the second iteration of the pack and has decided to not pursue fixing the issue due to difficulty replicating the bug and the fact that a newer version will be out soon.

I guess I'll wait. The modpack seems amazing from the one time I actually got it to launch. But the issue is persistent across both my laptop and desktop and I have no way to actually play it. I'll have to set up a server for my friends using a different modpack while I wait.

Triforge is easily the best mod pack I've ever played, the pack creator works hard to balance the pack and make sure it doesn't feel bloated. The pack also has tons of custom recipes, integrating many of the methods of crafting from different mods together. If you play Triforge, you're guaranteed to have a good time progressing and exploring the world. I also highly recommend their server, which has an amazing community.
