Prob is that everyone is like you, easy to give up, too large of a project with little payoff until the very end. People like to see colorful results such as the ones Starmade gives for example, but those results are fooling you, problem is that what you currently see even in the Alpha version of SM is the limit of what Sm is capable of, sure you can add a lot more block types but it won't solve the core engine issues, in terms of program SM is not much better than FC apart from the fact it has a rushed out release you can play with. When you work on an engine you cannot expect to see playable results.
As for the development itself currently Frostbyte is on a work trip to india writing some stuff there so obviously he cannot currently work on FC, Im keeping this thread alive and answering Qs people have so that when he returns he has a work environment at his disposal, what he does with it from there on is his choice, if he wants to quit the development I cannot stop him and I will understand him because as I said its a lot of work for one person, otherwise this thread will be waiting for him in pristine condition.
What he said.
In fact I just heard from fr0sty earlier today and he says that he does want to keep doing his work with Minecraft modding.
He's actually quite happy with a lot of the graphics code changes currently occurring in vanilla minecraft for 1.8, says that it will make vanilla much more compatible with the large scale modding he's been working on and will open many possibilities for modding in general once we get used to the changes. He's also happily following the open source "Tall Worlds" project. It will likely play an important part in FC's future, filling the role that the original Cubic Chunks mod was going to fill.
He's been trying very hard to restructure his time to start working on all this again but at the moment his real-life work project is still hammering him. He would love to eventually come back but can't give any kind of time-frame right now. Be assured though that he will let us all know when he is, so stay subscribed to this thread to find out, just don't expect anything anytime soon.

As far as I know content-wise Frost's work is back at 1.7.3 BETA so hes not too worried about the update schedule , dunno if it makes sense to rewrite it all from nothing, it should be a question for him to answer ...
Are they even making anything? I've waited this mod for almost two years now, I saw no change in this thread at all except for the link to the forums, today I tried to open the forum and it went to a random site??
EDIT: Nevermind, I did found their forum post, some of them really old, but found some recently posted one too. But really, are they still working on the mod?

just type in your bard fc-mod.com, the URL is correct. As for status Frost said he was around 50% done with the engine, we actually have footage of flying ships but making the ships fly is the easy part, you have Starmade doing the same, if you want it to truly work you need to do a lot of optimizations with the engine. Frost can give you details however hes on a work trip in India so he won't be able to reply or work on the mod for now, as I said earlier Im here to keep this thread in pristine condition until then, the details as to the fate of the mod can be heard from him once he returns.
Nah just saying its gonna be out on Tuesday became a running gag here, so yup ... cya on Tuesday
Instead of joking around,can we please help to continue with the moding process so that frostbyte will have an easier time when he gets back. Now we just need an official modding platform. Can u tell me if there is one provided?
I was searching the internet for a futurecraft mod when I came across a mod called futurecraft flans mod. Did flans copy Frostbyte124? Or are they the same mod?

How many people from the original futurecraft team are left? Are they even interested in developing futurecraft mod any more? If anyone knows the answer to my questions,please tell me.
My genius brain tells us that futurecraft will be release tomorrow. Thank you thank you. Thanks for the applause. Get ready to be amazed. It will be out at 6am sharp.

Yeeeeeeees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The long awaited futurecraft mod will be released!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the awesome info emperorlilian:D
Its not possible to download this mod as it is currently still in development by fr0stbyte124's team. Give this mod one more year for it to be completed. Futurecraft is a very ambitious mod and it is very complicated. Good luck to the developers. I hope to play this mod next year^_^
