Beta 1.7.4

Changes made for pre-release 2:

The modpack is playable now. Apologies for leaving it broken for so long. Custom attributes were temporarily removed until release. They need to be re-coded. I did not want to delay fixing vital playability issues any further. Theres probably some undocumented stuff. I couldn't remember everything. Please join the Discord for updates and to leave feedback. Thank you!
