The Testing Zone [1.6]

This is a staging area for my main mod lists. New items I am currently testing or perhaps mods just currently switched out are kept here.

With 1.6 release, right now this also a graveyard for mods stuck on 1.5

Mods here are not endorsed or recommended for stable gameplay, but may be of interest.


## Testing Notes ##

Beware forked or 'continued' mods where the uploader is not a mod creator themselves. Often this is just slapping a 1.6 tag on with no testing involved.

Always check the change log and comments section.

Old mods may be compatible if they are simple, like a single XML edit or texture.
