Forge of the Ages
Modpackby Keaft
An incredible experience packed full of Adventure, Exploration, Technology, Magic and much more!
Description
This modpack has been heavily inspired by Tekkit, Hexxit, and SkyFactory. It is the spiritual successor to my TekkHex modpack. I've focused in on blending the technical and adventuring aspects of those mods and added more herbs and spices. This creates an amazing world packed full of things to do: machines, magic, exploration, farming, adventure, leveling up, and questing! It is geared and focused for players of any familiarity and skill to pick up and play. Those savvy enough could take this pack and run a multiplayer server with it as I've tried hard to make it efficient on server resources.
I have been working in the background on this pack for my friends and I for over 6 years. Slowly honing it into the experience that it is. Though it is now hosted on Curseforge, please understand that it is still a work in progress and there will be issues. That being said don't let that deter you from experiencing all the work that's gone into it. :) I promise you'll have a fun time.
Worlds To Explore:
- Vanilla Minecraft worlds, but packed with more ores, trees, liquids, dungeons, mobs with variation, bosses, etc. Lots of mods contribute to making the vanilla world absolutely amazing to adventure in.
- The Between Lands is a dark otherworldly swamp filled dimension with adventure and boss fights, new items, crafting, and more!
- The Twilight Forest is an almost evolving story driven world of adventure with interesting boss fights, new items, crafting, and more!
- Atum is a sandstorm world with a dungeon boss fight with variants, items, and more!
Huge thank you to all the incredible mod authors who have created the tools and content that we all know and love!
This pack wouldn't be remotely possible without their efforts and inspirations!
