I understand that, they talked at length about it through the thread. But M3L was presumably working earlier when they posted the screenshots and videos. They could work on terrain gen on the version that it was working, as far as I know the biome files wouldn't need to be changed between versions.
But if you have to switch to an entirely different codebase for your mod loader, I don't think major code like that can be simply reused, so it's pointless to work off the already-existing stuff if you're just going to have to discard it later.
Or maybe I'm wrong about this; if I am please tell me.

Nothing to report, just some terrain tinkering in the background. Enigma is just about ready which means that M3L will be getting updated for 1.8.x which further means that Cuchaz and team can then start moving forward with Tall Worlds mod again. Don't expect a huge update here for a little bit just yet, unless the Moon Wizard's Union gets involved.

Any way, the Lunar Wizard is working on Ship Technology, right now (check Ships mod).

I think this is another one of what I like to call WOB mod instead of WIP mod ... Would of been Great but unfortunately dead . I have heard about this over a year now but nothing has been released to the public. I think the author had a good idea and think he is having problems making it possible . At least possible with out huge lag that is .

Lol, the project was delayed, but it's certainly not dead. I just need more free time. Want to sponsor me so I don't have to work a full time job anymore?

TBH man I would love to sponsor you ,and a lot of other mod authors but considering the small chunk of money I live off of month to month SSI I do not think I could. I am disabled with 4 herniated disk in my back , and could not hold a job if I wanted to , and even if I could work I don't think anyone would want me on a job considering the amount of narcotics I have to take to function on a daily basis . Try 450mg Oxycodone aday and 40mg Hydromorphone.. Think anyone would hire me. :/
If you know how to code, maybe you can help him. I think that's what he meant by "support".

And while you're at it, give us the phone number of your favorite pizza place so we can buy you pizza! On second thought, that could become problematic, heh heh.

Wow, that sounds pretty rough. I hope you get back on your feet. =)
Well I'm looking at your patreon goals, and the thought comes to mind that you should probably make a post in the activity section asking if they want a 24 slot server paid from the patreon before doing this
I just have a feeling that the people supporting you are more interested in supporting you than paying for a server.
Of course I could be wrong, but I haven't seen any post where you actually brought the subject on the MCF or on the patreon, so it might be a good idea to ask what the people want before going through the trouble of making a server you aren't sure if people actually want
In terms of actually having a viable income, the server fees are a drop in the bucket. Adding or removing the server fees would make little difference compared to an entire salary. Also, yes, people have asked for a server in the past specifically for my Ships Mod. MCF thread searching seems to be broken, so I can't actually find any relevant posts. Anyway, the whole point of Patreon is that patrons don't get any say in where the money goes or what it can be spent on. That's what makes it a donation. It's not a contract. I'm not selling a product.
Would it make any difference if I removed any mention of a public server from Patreon, but continued to pay for it anyway because I wanted to have a server? Would potential patrons feel any more or less likely to donate if I told them what the money was being spent on? I don't think it would change anything. I don't think it should change anything.
What if I told people that I spend some of my income on beer? Beer is tasty and I like to drink it. Should I not spend money on beer because potential patrons might feel less generous? I'm not going to live my life that way. I'm going to assume that people will donate if they want me to spend more time and energy to make Minecraft more fun for them to play. It doesn't have to be any more complicated than that.
A server for public testing of Cuchaz's mods would be incredible and a slam dunk! It would be cool if all mods had something like that, at least big and unique ones like Cuchaz's.
I know that back with the original Cubic Chunks mod, for instance, it would have been VERY helpful for us to have had a central official test server. Instead we were lucky to get volunteers to host tests for an hour or two at a time once in a while, and you can go back and see what affect that had on the SMP development...
Plus it would be a heck of a bonus in regards to community involvement with his projects and a great source of Videos about those mods. It would also be the first place you would ever see something like Tall Worlds Mod + Ships Mod together at the same time! It would be the bleeding edge of Minecrafts future in regards to such Multiplayer capabilities in modern Minecraft.

No, we're not planning a 1.7.10 release. The first release of Tall Worlds will be for 1.8.

Say, that's a good idea! How about this one?
EDIT: I put up some fun milestone goals to give a sense of what level of patronage it would take to work on modding full time.
