This modpack was initially inspired by Create: Mekanized (from bogdanasaurus). I decided that I wished to have a modpack that did a similiar thing, but Mekanism was later game, as if you have to upgrade technology to achieve the advanced Mekanism gadgets. I also enjoyed the Create addon The Factory Must Grow, of which is not in Mekanized, but is here.
Thus here is this modpack, complete with many custom recipes, items, and other various changes. The idea is that there is stages of technological development as you progress, similiar to how base create has the different casings and the achievements labled "Andesite Age" and such. These eras, as I call them, are as follows with examples of items and machines available within them:
The Andesite Era
The Copper Era
The Brass Era
The Transportation Era
The Steel Era
The Electrical Era
The Storage Era
The Quantum Era
The Osmium Era
The Fission Era
The Fusion Era
The Final Era
This is not an exhaustive list of technology available in each era. Additionally, some technology is not clearly within one era or another. For example, the Quantum Era occurs at essentially the same time as the Storage Era, around when silicon is beginning to be fabricated. These two eras as a whole can technically be skipped, as no item within them is necessary for progression.
Many of the textures within every mod have been modified, mostly through resource packs I directly integrated into the pack. Thus, one does not need to apply any of the additional resource packs. I tried to make the textures all fit a Create-centric theme. Some textures will need to be modified further, and this is being done so for future releases. Here are the credits to those resource packs, just in case you miss them:
SteelBlue8 (Steel's Updated Textures)
Moogosu (Create Style Gui for Tom's Simple Storage and Sophisticated Backpacks)
crazyfl_ (Create Immersive Aircraft: Warship)
nicky__21 (Create Immersive Aircraft)
Txni (Create Style Mekanism Pipes)
End_Rage (Tom's Create Storage)
Luna (Create Style Sophisticated Backpacks) [not directly integrated]
Aimed at allowing for infinite possible ways to play the game (tech, magic, farming, exploring, crafting) without overhauling the main mechanics of the game.
