# Hello, Hi and Welcome.
\nI have been planning this modpack in a google doc for a few weeks before the first release version, and roughly week of in-game testing. This modpack was initially for use with a friend group, but i have decided to make it a public modpack.<\/p>\n
This tech modpack is partly inspired by Tekkit and by direwolf20’s FTB modpacks, but as i wished to mod a modern version of the game it meant i wouldn’t be able to use IndustrialCraft, Buildcraft and Redpower, i have opted to skip Project Red for now as i do not wish to bother with adding in mods from outside of modrinth, me lazy.
\nThus i have chosen the Thermal series of mods to replace most of IC2’s gameplay loop, and Extreme Reactors for nuclear energy. The feature i wanted most out of Buildcraft was oil processing which i have replaced with the Diesel Generators addon for Create, initially i had planned for Immersive Petrolium for Immersive Engineering but it is complicated and not on modrinth so rip. All the other mods are ones i found to be very nice to use, and also a handful of performance mods. Oh and there is also Distant Horisons, i am in love with Distant Horisons.<\/p>\n
I have not made any configurations to the config files of Almost Unified as i had found no issues in my first round of testing.<\/p>\n
Performance has been deemed very good on a Laptop with a 9750H and a 1660ti, setting the allocated ram to 4 gigs should do the job quite well.<\/p>\n
