Quality of Life & Base Pack

This is a base pack to start with when making a new modpack. It contains almost nothing but QoL mods and tweaks, vanilla-like texture updates, and otherwise practically no feature mods whatsoever.

Note that smarter Construction has some TPS issues.

When updated for 1.6 I'd suggest grabbing Prepatcher, PerformanceFish and Fishery for performance.
