Hello guys, today I'm going to write about Minecraft, but not about the normal thing, about a few mods included in a mod pack. It is called the YogBox which has a pretty good list of mods.

Lets start with Somnia. It is an interesting mod. When you go to sleep, time continues on as if it were real-time, except sped up. That's about it... at least that's what I've seen so far. Since the Curse Network is down, I couldn't go on it and see it.

Next, MoreHealth. It is a very helpful mod. In the beginning of every world, you start with 5 hearts. You can find heart fragments underground. By combining 4 heart fragments, you get heart containers, which increase your health by a full heart. The maximum amount of hearts you can have is 20. That's about it for this mod. It's a lot like Zelda...

After that, ModOptions Api. I don't know what it is, when I figure it out, I'll post again.

This mod is probably a mod you've heard of before. Mo' Creature. Holy shit this mod is good. I've been using this mod for a few months now. It is truly amazing. It adds a lot of additional creatures. My favorites are the bunnies, the deer, and the birds. There are many colored bunnies that spawn everyday. You can put one on your head by right clicking it. The deer are so realistic and so cute. It is incredibly hard to catch up to one. It will run away from you so the best bet is to hit it with a bow and arrow. The birds are so numerous. It's rare for me to find a forest without a single bird. You can throw seeds and they will gather at the seeds and eat it. If you kill a bird, then you'll get your seeds back. Nothing else to say except it is truly amazing.

GUI API... I don't know what it is...

Ooo... PISTONS! There are two types of pistons, the normal pistons, and sticky pistons. These things are amazing. They can launch things in the air, such as TNT, items, mobs, you name it. You can find YouTube videos by CaptainSparklez working with the pistons.

DaftPVF's mods are a game changer. The slime gear is not very useful for me. The game having score is amazing. I'm trying to get an incredibly high score. It has also made me a lot more wary because I don't want a creeper to creep up on me and kill me, which erases my score. My current highest is 32,719. The starting inventory is very useful because of another of his mods, Treecapitator. The starting inventory includes a wooden pick, axe, shovel, and sword. It also contains a recipe book which shows all the recipes. Treecapitator made cutting trees more efficient and less time consuming. All you have to do it cut somewhere at the trunk and it will make all the wood come down like a rain of wood.

Risugami's mod are vital to this mod pack, at least one of them anyways. Modloader is needed to install the mods. The AudioMod is, well, something that I don't know. The death chest is where a chest a placed when you die and all your items will be stored inside them when you die. If the all the contents can fit, they'll be dropped on the ground. Shelves is like a chest but it can only store 9 items. It only needs 3 block of either wood, stone, brick, or obsidian. It is a good way to display your items. More Arrows is an addition of a lot arrows. One of them is the exploding arrow, my personal favorite. You craft it like a normal arrow except the flint is replaced with gunpowder. It had the speed of an arrow and the destruction of 1 block of TNT. If you get caught in the blast radius, it won't hurt you.

Airships and sky pirates. Airships is like boats... except in the air. I think it's "c" to open the airship inventory... I don't know. You can load it with arrows and shoot things. Like the sky pirates, which can become annoying if you don't know how to deal with them.

Millenaire... My favorite mod. It implements a currency, something that Minecraft really needs especially in SMP. It randomly generates a village on new chunks that are generated so if you have an old world, you can only find a village by finding a chunk that has not been generated. All I'm going to say is that it is what makes this Mod pack my favorite.

I didn't see much of Hogofwar's mods except the magical bone wands. There's a bam stick... which predictably blows up. It won't of course... Nothing much to be said about this. I didn't see much... Like I said.

Buried treasure... I've found only 2 treasure chests in 6 worlds... They are hidden underground and include treasures... like gold ingots or maps.

ConvenientInventory should never be included in this mod pack... I absolutely hate it... It's useless...

Finally... The Painterly Pack. The texture pack that goes along with this is a custom texture pack that includes everything... Things might look weird if you don't put the one included with this mod pack on...

Bye...
