    Is this list old? I'm interested in the show durability mods, sildur's shaders, improved HUDS, etc. all client side visual mods. I understand a few of these would require forge mod loader as well.

    showing durability, and shaders is fine. HUDs is fine as long as it doesn't show where ores/chests/players/mobs are

    Thank you so much for posting this! For the longest time I have had mods in the "gray zone" :D


    aAnd another thing... Is the better sprint mod allowed? I always have it installed for the hunger games, but could it spell trouble for people on this server? I have asked around and people keep saying it is generally allowed.... so confusing :confused:
    If it is banned I will gladly ignore the mod :)

    Oh wow, thanks! Didn't know that.

    And the HUD I was looking at was the tukmc(?). I'm diggin' the FPS, clock, ping, and other indicators this HUD has to offer.

    I looked up the HUD. It doesn't appear to give any advantages, so there should be no problems with you using it.

    Basically the policy with mods is, they're fine so long as they don't give you an advantage over other players/break any server rules.

    So altering the look of the game = fine

    altering gameplay mechanics = not fine

    -.- you can set a sprint key to any button

    E.g I set mine to shift so when I hold shift I sprint. It does make running away from people easier though...

    Hey ladies and gents,

    So after reading through this I've decided to compile a list of current mods for 1.6.x that I believe do not offer a distinct advantage over another player. There are a couple of these mods that are questionable, but I will leave that up to the moderator/staff to decide if they are following the rules. This was done because I'm on night shift at work and am pretty bored :p.

    The full list of current compatible mods can be found at: http://modlist.mcf.li/list/1.6/1.6.2.php

    "Optiforge": This is Optifine + Forge Mod Loader. The compatibility between the two isn't quite right yet but you can get these working.



    "ArmorStatusHUD", "StatusEffectHUD": You need bspkrsCore mod to get these two to work. The armor mod shows your current armor durability without opening up your inventory. The status effect HUD shows any current effects your character has and time remaining without opening your inventory.



    "Matmos": This mod looks at your environment and plays sounds that relate to the environment. (Birds, etc)



    "tukmc": This is another take at your HUD. I like this because it displays your current time, FPS, direction, and time of day. Note: For those of you who were there when I first experienced the server you know I'm colorblind (darn brown wool >.>). This mod has a colorblind feature that will force quit your game if playing on the server. You will have start a single player game and disable the colorblind feature to login to the shadecrest server.



    "Chat Bubbles": Chat bubbles above the characters.



    The below list compiles the questionable mods.

    "Better Sprinting": Assign a key to enable/disable sprinting. Possible advantage in PvP.



    "CraftGuide": Quick reference for recipes in game.



    Hopefully my formatting was correct.

    Thanks

    Edit: Removed "Voxelmap" due to cave finder and player finder. This is obviously against server policy to run this.

    Edit#2: Removed "Dynamic Lighting" due to it being a brightness mod.

    CraftGuide would (Should?) be allowed. Most players know the crafting recipes by heart, this just allows newer players to ge tup to speed quicker.

    That's what I was thinking. I'm not too fluent with the draw your item system yet. Xbox has spoiled me.

    Xbox is definitely easier when it comes to crafting, you just get what you need in your inventory and off you go! :D at least it helps for learning the recipes in the first place...

    I have to disagree with this one. Voxelmap has a cave finder as well as the ability to display players and other entities.

    I completely agree, the player display and cave finder gives you a massive advantage over others, I'd say no to the Voxelmap aswell.

    Yes, hindsight is 20/20. By the looks of it I thought it to be just a mini map setup. I do not run that one but just pulled it from the list. Will edit list.

    Ok, it's hard to know the features of a mod without having used it. If you want a minimap then Reis minimap is probably your safest bet.

    Also dynmaic lights is not allowed, it's basically a brightness mod.
