Goodbye to Millenaire for now and hello X Mod Pack!!

I have been playing Minecraft with Millenaire (via the AMCO pack) for a while now and have managed to maintain 5 villages and complete half of the Sadhu Quest but now I feel like trying something else. I saved the worlds and will come back to them.

As you all now I am a big fan of Mod Packs which are a collection of Mods for Minecraft working together (usually). I have been a fan of AMCO and YogBox for a long while and I am always on the lookout for a new pack.

I found a pack called the X Mod Pack (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/764370-100-x-mod-pack-v62/) which seems to be a slightly different arrangement. Jordyn Holguin, the compiler of the pack has chosen a lot of mods that do not alter the gameplay a lot but enhance it. It is also one of the only packs that has Mo' Creeps and Weirdos installed (which is far the most weirdest mod in Minecraft).

I have decided to install the mod and start an adventure/survival map to see how long I can survive. Over the next few weeks, I will update the blog with a review of the mod pack as well as progress on my survival.

Now, before I get too far, I have also installed OptiFine (compatible with this pack), Mo' Creatures as well as Too Many Items and Single Player commands. These are not part of the mod pack and the last two are there for emergency ONLY and playing with the mods to get familiar with them.

BTW, I have turned off a few of the mods to streamline my adventure mode. I have listed my ModLoader file to summarize it all:
