Beta 1.7.4

Welcome to pre release!

Beta versions are old and depricated. Pre-release and (and in the future, release) versions are the most up to date.

For anyone who has been playing the modpack, due to the vast amount of changes made for release and prerelease versions it is recommended to start a new world. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
