    So I have been pretty unavailable lately, but that's because there's a new update to our custom Minecraft launcher coming soon. It should support auto-update and setup of the Alice server, proper Minecraft directory separation, and proper mod support, and of course all the features in the older launchers.

    What a good new! I confess I'm lazy enough to play at survival server instead of instaling and uptading mods, etc!

    Do you have some idea of when you're gonna release this update!?

    As such, couldnt we make it simple to have multiple 'standardized' texpacks for the server? Though, they would likely be more as suggestions, obviously.

    We can, but we can't ever decide on a texture pack we all like.

    Yes.

    Though you can also install it with the mods button too if you're lazy and/or don't want to deal with modifying the .jar.
