A Magic World pack, which focused on mods of a magical nature, was also released. Other versions of the Modpacks were created, including FTB Lite, which slimmed down the list of mods to assist new users to learn the ins and outs without being overwhelmed. This process proved a long road for a few of the mods that were core to the pack. It stayed in beta status for some time because of the necessity for mod authors to update their mods to Minecraftversion 1.4, where everything became server-based. The initial mod pack was released as a beta in November 2012. However, it then expanded to other genres, such as magic mods like Thaumcraft and Mystcraft. They initially focused on mods of a technical theme, such as IndustrialCraft 2, BuildCraft, and RedPower 2. The modpacks are centered around mods built on the Minecraft Forge platform. That version was then updated to a harder version, known as FTB Insanity, which took many players 50 to even over 100 hours of playtime to fully complete. However, most players that refer to the map, truly mean the pyramid map, known for its large basalt pyramid that included various rooms that listed a set of items the player had to create in order to solve each challenge. The map went through various iterations, including the bedrock map - known for the challenge and reward structure made of bedrock. At some point, a decision was made to combine all of the mods into an easily distributable pack, as well as create a launcher that would stream-line installation. This version gained large popularity after being live-streamed on Twitch.TV with Direwolf20 vs Mattabase, both very well-known users of the mods included in the map.Īs the map was released to the public, it became apparent that it was very difficult to distribute the map file, mods, and configuration settings to those interested in playing it. The map was then adapted to allow multiple players to compete against each other in a race to complete the objectives. It played very similar to a type of map known as Sky Block, where the player is started in a void world with only a small platform and must overcome a series of challenges.īecause the FTB app included tech mods, it was possible to use the various custom blocks and items to keep track of the challenges and the player's progress, as well as automatically give awards after each challenge was met. Feed the Beast, also known as FTB Launcher, originated as a custom challenge map for Minecraft that made heavy use of many mods.
