Create: Forged In Brass
Forged In Brass is a large-scale industrial and arcane progression modpack built around mechanical expansion, system integration, and world-scale automation.
At its core, this pack is a Create-driven industrial experience — but not a small one.
This modpack currently includes:
- 300+ total mods
- 70+ Create addons
- Extensive world generation expansions
- Advanced technology systems
- Arcane progression paths
- Large-scale exploration content
- Performance optimization and QoL enhancements
Forged In Brass is designed to push mechanical progression beyond simple automation and into industrial-scale infrastructure.
From early rotational power to high-pressure engineering, automated production chains, digital storage networks, magical engineering, and late-game nuclear energy — this pack is about escalation.
You don’t just build machines here.
You build systems.
The Mechanical Core
Create and its massive addon ecosystem form the backbone of this pack. With over 70 Create expansions integrated, rotational mechanics influence nearly every stage of progression:
- Extended kinetic systems
- High-pressure machinery
- Industrial-scale processing chains
- Automated logistics networks
- Custom contraptions
- Resource generation systems
- Mechanical transport systems
- Defense integrations
- Energy cross-compatibility
Create is not an optional feature here.
It is the foundation.
Technology & Energy Expansion
Forged In Brass integrates advanced technological systems that scale alongside mechanical growth.
- Applied Energistics 2 for digital storage and automation control
- Extreme Reactors for scalable nuclear energy
- Industrial automation layers
- Cross-mod energy systems
Late-game infrastructure is intended to feel powerful, complex, and earned.
This pack rewards expansion and engineering — not rushing.
Arcane Integration
Magic is not separate from industry.
It integrates with it.
- Ars Nouveau
- Forbidden Arcanus
- Botania
- Arcane automation utilities
- Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks
Magical systems enhance industrial scaling and provide alternate progression paths that eventually interconnect with mechanical systems.
Exploration & World Depth
Forged In Brass heavily expands the overworld and beyond.
- Custom biome generation
- Massive cave expansions
- Large dungeon structures
- Dangerous encounters
- Expanded mob variety
- Dimensional content
Exploration matters. Progression is tied to world interaction.
Scale
With over 300 mods, this is a large-scale pack built for long-term worlds.
Included systems:
- Structure expansions
- Farming and food overhauls
- End & Nether overhauls
- Combat enhancements
- Decorative building systems
- Logistics improvements
- Performance optimizations
- Deep integration potential
This is not vanilla+.
This is industrial escalation.
⚠ Development Status
Forged In Brass is currently in an early rough development phase.
This version serves as a foundational build for stability testing, integration balancing, and structural groundwork.
Current state:
- No questbook yet
- No structured progression
- No gated eras implemented
- Recipes are not finalized
- Config tuning is ongoing
- Integration between systems is still evolving
This release is meant for testing, experimentation, and early-world development.
Structured progression, gated eras, and full quest integration are planned for future versions.
