Create to your Hearts Desire

Developed by Gold

⚠️ DEVELOPMENT HIATUS NOTICE (As of 7/21/2026)

Due to foreseen hardware and storage limitations, active development and major updates for Create to your Hearts Desire will be paused starting July 21, 2026.

Regular updates are expected to resume around December 15, 2026. This will be the final update for a while unless a critical bug pops up that is quick and easy to hotfix. Thank you for your patience and support while the development rig gets sorted out!

This modpack features 90 mods (subject to change) that aim to completely revolutionize and improve the Create Aeronautics experience.

I have designed this modpack to protect performance while providing stunning visuals. This pack tests your ability to design and adapt to challenges using destructible contraptions, meaning you must be able to build something that actually works—or just crash things into each other and watch the fireworks.

Engineering the Future-Proof World

Most modpacks treat performance as a static goal; this pack treats it as a dynamic overhead. We have optimized this pack to be a high-velocity environment, built to survive, scale, and scale again. It allows you to build sprawling industrial networks and massive mobile fortresses without ever hitting the performance ceiling that usually limits late-game gameplay.

Recommended to Play with Friends

This Modpack was created with Friends as a goal. Future updates will include fixes, new features, and new mods that actively change the experience.

💾 Recommended Performance & Setup Settings

To get the best experience and maintain that high-FPS headroom, we have included optimized configuration files. If you find you need to tweak them further, here are the settings we recommend:

• RAM Allocation: Ensure you have allocated 6GB to 8GB of RAM to your Minecraft instance.

• Render Distance: Best experienced between 12 and 16 chunks (unless configuring long-distance rendering below).

• Simulation Distance: Set to 8 chunks to keep heavy physics calculations efficient.

• V-Sync: Recommended OFF to fully realize the performance benefits, though you may turn it ON if you experience screen tearing during high-speed air travel.

⚠️ CRITICAL OPTIMIZATION NOTE: Do NOT run Farsight and Distant Horizons (DH) together! Both mods will consume a massive amount of storage and tank your FPS if active simultaneously. Choose ONE based on your performance goals:

• If choosing Farsight: Use this if you have plenty of free storage space and want raw, highly-detailed chunk generation. (Note: For an unknown engine reason, a 65-chunk render distance will crash or bug out—stick to exactly 64 chunks).

• If choosing Distant Horizons: Remember to leave your computer completely idle/on for a short while at first so it can generate and cache the LODs properly. If annoying render boxes pop up while the game is actively building chunks, you can temporarily turn off rendering while it finishes loading the distant models in the background.

Here is your complete, fully updated Known Issues & Troubleshooting section. It seamlessly combines your firsthand playtesting discoveries with the technical edge-cases of your combat and weapon additions, ready to be pasted directly onto your project page:

🔍 Known Issues & Troubleshooting

• Random 60 FPS Throttling / Capping: The Discord Game Overlay and certain external background tasks can occasionally trick the graphics driver into forcing a hard 60 FPS vertical sync container on the game client. Fix: If your frame rate suddenly locks to 60 FPS despite V-Sync being off, completely disable the Discord Game Overlay in your Discord user settings and ensure your native desktop resolution is explicitly targeted rather than set to "Current".

• Severe Chunk Generation Lag / Stuttering: Because this pack runs massive real-time physics engines (Sable and Create Aeronautics) alongside heavy world-generation overhauls like Terralith and Tectonic, generating new terrain puts extreme, simultaneous stress on your CPU threads. Fix: If your system begins to choke while flying into ungenerated chunks, navigate to Video Settings > Performance and lower your Chunk Builder Threads to 2. This leaves more physical CPU cores unhindered to process airship movement and collision grids smoothly.

• Performance Degradation Due to Low Disk Space: Mods that utilize heavy rendering caches—such as Distant Horizons or Farsight—constantly read and write Level-of-Detail (LOD) models directly to your storage drive. If your primary installation drive drops below 10% to 15% free capacity, read/write speeds drop off a cliff, causing the Java Garbage Collector to bottleneck and triggering violent game-wide micro-stutters. Ensure your drive has adequate breathing room, or configure your LOD path to point to a secondary storage drive with high capacity.

• Asynchronous Rotation Exploded Assemblies: When a moving airship carrying loaded Create Big Cannons or Create Missiles crosses a chunk boundary while undergoing rapid rotational maneuvers, the physics grid (Sable) and the chunk-loading grid can briefly de-sync. This can cause multi-block artillery pieces to detach or misalign. Fix: Ensure you are using a Create: Power Loader safely positioned near the center of mass of your main base to keep the assembly synchronized across chunk borders.

• Radar Track Ghosting in High-Altitude Flying: If you are moving at maximum throttle while running tracking tech from Create: Radars, target lock signatures can occasionally lag behind the actual airship coordinates, leaving a "ghost" blip on your navigation grids. Fix: Slowing down the craft momentarily or doing a quick F3 + A chunk reload clears the local tracking buffer.

• "Stuck in Geometry" Disconnects: If a player is standing on an airship when it collides with a massive Terralith mountain structure or a Tectonic cliff side at high speed, the Collision Damage mod might clip the player into a solid block, causing the server to instantly kick them for "Moving too fast". Fix: The player will need to log back in while the airship is stationary, or an admin must teleport them out of the block frame.

• "Phantom" Damage or Phasing: If you take damage or objects pass through walls on moving airships, this is usually a collision interaction between Sable and the blocks. Restarting your client often resets the collision layers.

• Performance Stutters: If your frame rate drops after hours of gameplay, it is likely the Java Garbage Collector. Ensure you are allocated at least 6GB to 8GB of RAM.

• Report Bugs: Found a weird interaction? Please report it with a brief description of what you were building. (A community Discord may be created once the pack hits 10K–20K downloads!)
