I've never used FTB so I'm a bit confused by how it works. Is FTB a modded server that allows administrators to install mods? Or is each modpack a server distribution?

joshuacherry commented 7 years ago

FTB is more like a "standard" of modpack distribution built on forge. Each pack I specified above is a different server distribution of mods, sometimes upwards of 80+ mods that the modpack creator has put together and addressed mod conflicts.
