Today’s game is Minecraft. Specifically Attack of The B-Team. Growing up I had a specific fondness for this mod-pack after seeing a YouTuber I liked play a whole series of it. If I had to pick 3 mods/mod-packs that caught my attention before I owned Minecraft this would probably be at the top, followed by Digimobs, and then Pixelmon (for a while I also had a soft spot for Hexxit too).

I actually set this up as a server for me and my friends. It took a little more work since it’s Minecraft 1.6.4, but I got there. The first issue I ran into is Java 8 wouldn’t work. Then the server wasn’t loading the right world type. I ended up figuring out I was launching the wrong jar file. I was launching Forge, while I needed to be launching BTeam.jar.

After that though I got it all setup. It’s nice to be playing this again. This is my ideal “classic mod-pack” and playing it’s like a rush of nostalgia.

I didn’t play long, as setting up the server ate up most of my free time but once I did get it set up I made a bee line for somewhere and started building a house too live in. Once I get back on, just having somewhere safe to live will be nice.


Small PCs are crazy. There’s something so cool and novel about the size being so small they can almost fit in your palm.
