I've tested this mod (and have made a video on how it would work in multiplayer) as well.

Mod forum link: https://www.skydaz.com/item-physics-mod-installer-for-minecraft-1-7-10/

My multiplayer testing link: https://youtu.be/vOwKSQsN8TI

As stated by some other people who have tested the mod, it's just a graphics mod and should only affect how items look in multiplayer...

 This mod requires forge. Famcraft does not run forge so this should not work on Famcraft. If you have it installed for your SP games and/or forge based servers, then you should be fine.

Could I test it, though, on Famcraft/ftb?

I have had no trouble running forge on Famcraft. I use the forge version of Zan's Minimap on Famcraft, and I haven't had any trouble with it since I got it about a month ago.

(SrMod: ~Rowan) that sounds like an attractive field

When I first heard about this mod, I thought that it changed the way that physics in the game work, and I let Anna know that it would not work. There are forge mods that do that, but they also require forge to be enabled on the server.

When I further look into this mod, it looks like it just changes the way the items are rendered on the client. So this mod should work fine, and it would be allowed on Famcraft, as it does not give an advantage to the player.

As always, thank you for checking with us!

Ah, gotcha. I didn't realize that when you said 'requires forge' that you were talking about the server instead of the client. Therefore, I was confused when you said that 'it requires forge and won't work'. Thanks for clearing that up!
