UHS2 BETA5

**** ULTRA HARD SURVIVAL 2.0.0-BETA5 **** Now With 75% More Evil ****

This new pack takes the previous 1.0 release of UHS and then ramps it
up a few notches. Torches are now unlit and require you to light them
using lava, flint, other torches, tinderboxes, etc. Zombies will find
you at a distance, smelling your blood if you are wounded. Light will
also attract them and both zombies and skeletons may extinguish them.

New to these realms, the alchemical wonders of Equivalent Exchange is
now a reality. However, even these tools of joy have been crippled by
the oppressive nature of ultra hard survival. Whilst still a boon, it
will require management and thought before using. Not to mention, the
need to face creatures to obtain the much needed shards.

Railcraft has made the current beta as well, providing all your steel
and transportation needs. Steam and Power is disabled, so the rolling
machine (etc) will just run. Whilst a useful addition for single play
with tanks and the like, it really shines when used on a server as it
provides many railway options to link players together.

Finally, even the weather is trying to destroy you and your home. The
unprepared may discover their cobblestone & plank house strewn to the
four corners of the world as a tornado rips through the landscape and
your belongings. Cooked stone, smelted glass, bricks & hard materials
will help you face the most destructive force in the game.

Oh, and did I mention hats? Because, hats.

=====================================================================
BETA5 UPDATE:
 - More than a few config tweaks, mostly for balance needs and to fix
   tornados ripping up 'processed' blocks.
 - Remvoed Recipeer and inserted MineTweaker. Changed some recipes to
   better balance the pack (golden bag of holding, bag, etc) and some
   changes to armour (metal chest armour requires TiC Plates).  Also,
   Steel and Thaumcraft weapons/tools are now disabled.
 - Barrels Mod updated.
 - Server version working (97% sure), along with base config enabling
   Biomes O Plenty right off the first install/run.
=====================================================================
NOTE: This is a BETA pack. It may crash. Probably will. Whilst it may
not set fire to your computer or pets, it is not yet a stable release

If you are not comfortable with MultiMC, this is not the pack for you
at this time. You can always play the current UHS release via the FTB
Launcher, using the private pack code "UHS".
