![]() Welcome to the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is the Minecraft Modding Thread! The modding community has a nasty reputation of being both unpleasant and stupid, but don't worry, we can help you find the gems in the hellhole that is Minecraft Modding. What kind of mods are there for Minecraft you ask? Well, the better question is really, What kind of mods aren't there. From total conversion RPG mods to ones that add poop armor or assless chaps, you can do anything with Minecraft mods. Helpful Tools & Links![]() MCF Mod List - A gigantic centralized repository of what mods are updated for what version. MultiMC - The single best Minecraft profiler out there. OptiFine Minecraft Forge Minecraft Resource Calculator DireWolf20's Youtube Channel - Like it or not this is the first and/or only source of information for many mods. Wylker's Youtube Channel - Similar to Direwolf in that he does mod spotlights and an LP. Different in that he is a goon who is in possession of a silky smooth tenor voice and his videos don't make you fall asleep. Modded Goon Servers Plus+ Servers - Go here to get support for Plus stuff Luddite Thaumcraft Goonsquare Insert Coin(s) Communist Craft Owlcraft ![]() Launchers are programs that automatically download and install any mod packs that are distributed through them. Additionally, many launchers have additional features such as allowing automated distribution of custom mod packs, texture packs, or maps. Here are some of the most popular launchers: ![]() ![]() The Technic Platform is a new mod(pack/map/config/cake) distribution service that is based out of the brand-new Technic Launcher. The Technic Launcher has historically pioneered the development of mod pack launchers, dragging the Minecraft Modding community kicking and screaming (literally) into a new era of not-forcing-users-to-manually-install-every-mod. With the introduction of the Technic Platform, anybody can create their own custom modpack and easily distribute it. Look for all the best modpacks such as Tekkit or the Plus series here. Download Forums ![]() The FTB Launcher is a launcher originally developed as a simple means to distribute the very popular FTB map. In reality, it was made as a "legal" successor to the "illegal" Technic Launcher, and is generally inferior. A variety of mod packs are distributed through the FTB launcher, many of which are extremely similar. Notably the BronyModPack Download Forums ![]() Mod Packs are simply compilations of mods that have been configured to work properly together and can be downloaded as one package. Some mod packs are just that, everything working together, while others go the extra mile and configure everything to work well as a mod pack, or add in special mods specific to the pack. Many mod packs are distributed through launchers, while many require users to install the contents to an appropriate Minecraft directory. It seems there are as many mod packs as there are people who play Minecraft, so here are some of the most popular ones: ![]() ![]() ![]() The Technic suite of mod packs are carefully cultivated collections of awesome mods that massively expand what you can do in Minecraft. Build merciless quarries with RedPower 2, giant factories with IndustrialCraft 2 or Thermal Expansion, or become the greatest mage in all the land with Thaumcraft. Technic is designed for single-player use, Tekkit Classic is on an older version of Minecraft, but has Bukkit support, and Tekkit Lite is the cutting-edge of multiplayer Technic. Mod Lists, Server Downloads, and Everything Else #technic on irc.synirc.net ![]() The Voltz mod pack is designed to showcase the up-and-coming Universal Electricity API, a new modding API that is trying to implement a more realistic representation of electricity in Minecraft. It it still heavily under development, but there's already tons of amazing things you can do with UE mods. Voltz was created with help from goons, and is fully multiplayer compatible. Wiki Server Download ![]() Hack/Mine is a total conversion mod distributed through the Technic launcher that changes Minecraft into some sort of awesome Roguelike, dungeon crawler. Sprawling dungeons, mob variety, spells, classes, and stats are all things to explore in Hack/Mine. Multiplayer is fully supported, but the mod is on an older version of Minecraft, and is very much an alpha. Everything you Need to Know ![]() ![]() ![]() Plus+ originally started as a simple pack that consisted of every mod Rutibex could conceivably add to Minecraft without it crashing and burning. If you want to play Website Wiki #plusplus on irc.synirc.net ![]() Plus Sigma, distributed as you would expect on the Technic Platform, is designed to be a spiritual successor to the YogBox. Subscribing to both the YogBox's goal of improving the adventure experience of Minecraft, as well as the Plus+ ethos "All the Mods," Plus Sigma is perfect for anybody who wants more combat, exploration, and excitement. Wiki ![]() Mods add or change the base Minecraft game in a variety of cool ways. From simple quality-of-life changes, to adding whole spell systems, resource tiers, or tech trees, if you can think of something, there's probably a mod out there that does it. There are thousands of mods out there, most of which are poo poo, however, here are some of the best ones available: Audiotori - Add, replace, or remove sounds and music with cascading sound packs. Balkon's Weapon Mod - Lots of new weapons Better Storage - Chests and crates and more Buildcraft - Ye Olde Buildcraft. Old, unreliable, and used by everyone and their mother. ChickenBone's Mods - Lots of essential mods including NEI Clay Soldiers - Make soldiers and make them fight! ComputerCraft - Adds computers and turtles that can be programmed in LUA Craft and Enchant - Craft enchanting scrolls Equivalent Exchange 3 - Still in early alpha, but will eventually have almost everything from EE2 ExtraBiomesXL - Adds in lots of extra biomes, screws with most mods that interact with biomes such as Forestry Factorization - BARRELS Forestry - Not really that good, but some people swear by its spergy Bee Breeding system GLSL Shaders - Adds a variety of post-processing effects to Minecraft. Can murder your fps but the end result is GregTech - Expansion for IC2, somewhat akin to wearing mittens woven full of bullet ants Immibis Mods - A chunk loader, RP2 addons, and more IndustrialCraft 2 - Giant Tech Mod (TM), electricity, nukes, the works Inventory Tweaks - Adds inventory sorting, auto-replacing, and more Iron Chests - Series of upgradeable, progressively larger chests Liquid Metal - Melt down metal and put it into tanks. Vats of molten iron Logistics Pipes - Pipes that craft items, supply machines, and more Millenaire - Really buggy, massive memory hog. Adds NPC villages that grow and trade and poo poo. MineChem 2 - Break down materials, make new materials. Really cool. Mo' Creatures - Ever felt Minecraft needed 12 varieties of songbirds? Modular Powersuits - Make power armor and slot tech into it. Goon-made and Mystcraft - A whole dimension-hopping system, loosely based off of the Myst games OmniTools - Wrenches that work on everything, convert copper ingots into other copper ingots Portal Gun - Faithful adaptation of the portal gun into Minecraft. Put a portal on the moon. PowerCrystal's Mods GOON MODDER - Machines to convert between power systems, ores in the nether, farming techProject Zulu - Ever felt Minecraft needed 12000 squirrels in 1 block? Railcraft - Complete overhaul of the vanilla rail system, also IRON TANKS Redpower 2 - Sensible redstone wiring, frames that move blocks, cool machines. Is updated about once a year. Maybe. Rei's Minimap - Adds a minimap with waypoints and all that jazz Runic Dust - Place dust on the ground to cast a bunch of neat spells Steve's Carts - Wait 12 hours to get a dumb-looking cart that can do a bunch of poo poo TerraFirmaCraft - TOTAL CONVERSION MOD that makes Minecraft more Dwarf Fortress-ey Thaumcraft 3 - Alchemy, golem workers, wisps, cool stuff Thermal Expansion - Another big tech mod that can pretty much replace IC2, really really good machine options. Goon-made. Treecapitator - Cut down trees in one fell swoop Twilight Forest - A new dimension with bosses and poo poo Universal Electricity - A whole suite of mods all using the UE mod API, lots of potential. Xeno's Reliquary - Made by the author of EE2, adds in a huge variety of miscellaneous useful things. ![]() Texture Packs are something you'll probably use even if you don't use any mods at all. However, finding one that supports whatever mods you're currently using can be tricky. Here are some popular texture packs that have good (or maybe just some) mod support: ![]() ![]() Sphax is a cell-shaded cartoony style pack. Several sizes are available, probably has the most comprehensive mod support out there. Download ![]() ![]() Soartex also has quite a bit of mod support. It goes for a more realistic look than Sphax. Download ![]() ![]() John Smith Technician's Remix has good mod support, though it might be a bit out of date. It's similar in style to Faithful Download ![]() Many cool Maps are available that rely heavily on mods. These can sometimes be distributed through a launcher, but often rely on the user to install them properly. Here are some cool ones: ![]() Skyden is distributed through the Technic Platform, or through the download link below. Vib Rib posted:

Voltz looks interesting, I'm hoping that gets picked up by people because I really dislike the Technic thing of 15 different forms of power that you need transformers for. I can definitely reccomend Plus* and Plus Sigma, they have a lot of mods but they work well together and its actually really fun to play with.

It also needs Rubber generation, since using leather to make wires is a pain in the backside if you're not using a rotten flesh to leather mod (Plus does of course, but still)

You could have put effort into your new OP, instead you simply copy/pasted the old one, while Shukaro made a really nice one. His thread OP was *so nice* that you simply copy/pasted it into yours, wrapping it up in a 'heh right guys drama heh' skin and now you are starting your backpedal. What you should have done is went 'oh ok!' and backed out, locked your thread and let Shukaro have his run at the FAME and FORTUNE of running THE OFFICIAL MINECRAFT MODDING THREAD ON SOMETHING AWFUL (TM) but instead you did a silly thing and made yourself look petty and weirdly defensive about things.
