If you've played Minecraft, you may be aware of the strong modding community associated with the game. Various fan developers have added new items, game mechanics, UI enhancements, mobs, and even other dimensions to explore. Feed the Beast is a collection of mods designed to provide a greatly enhanced experience compared to vanilla Minecraft. If you are familiar with Tekkit, FTB is very similar. The main difference between Tekkit and FTB is that FTB has the various mod authors' official permission, and Tekkit does not.

If you are interested in playing on a Feed the Beast server, I have set one up at 108.60.193.106:27105.
The current version of FTB we are running is: Direwolf pack v5.2.0

To set up FTB, follow these steps:
1. Go to http://feed-the-beast.com/#download_wrapper and click the "Download exe" button. This will download the FTB launcher, which replaces the vanilla launcher.
2. Once you have downloaded the launcher, run it. In the bottom right corner is a dropdown that says "Select Profile". Open this menu and click on Create Profile. Enter your Minecraft account credentials here.
3. On the left side, find the "Direwolf20" modpack. If the modpack says v4, then you will need to force it to version 5. There is a dropdown on the right side of the window that says "Recommended". Select this dropdown and change it to "5".
4. Click Launch to begin downloading the Direwolf20 FTB pack. If you get an error configuring Minecraft once it is downloaded, exit all of the windows and try again. It should work the second time.
5. At the main Minecraft menu, select Multiplayer, then Add Server. Enter "108.60.193.106:27105" as the address with any text as the description. Then click Join Server.

my launcher has been updated and it is now giving me an option mod version for 5.01 instead of 5, so I can't connect. thoughts?

I'm updating the server right now.

edit: The server is now running Direwolf20 pack version 5.0.1. Make sure you update to this version or you won't be able to connect. This new version is has mostly minor updates compared to the version 5 we were playing, except Forestry went from 1.7 to 2.0.

Power at my house is out, so no server until that's fixed.

Crimson has graciously allowed us to host the FTB server on his tekkit vps. Please update your server address to 108.60.193.106:27105.

Please note that Direwolf pack version 5.1.1 is out, but as of this time I am unable to download the server update. Hopefully the download issues will resolve by the time I get up in the morning.
