Gears & Grasslands is still actively being developed. Features, mods, and balance may change as the pack evolves toward its final vision.
🌍 Exploration — Biomes O' Plenty & YUNG's Better Series The world of Gears & Grasslands stretches far beyond vanilla Minecraft. With Biomes O' Plenty, every journey into the unknown brings lush bayous, ancient redwood forests, volcanic wastelands, and dozens of other handcrafted biomes to discover. YUNG's Better Series overhauls dungeons, mineshafts, caves, and more, making every structure feel handcrafted and worth exploring. Whether you are searching for the perfect place to build your base or simply wandering with friends, the world always has something new to offer.
⚙️ Automation — Create At the heart of the pack lies Create, Minecraft's most expressive mechanical mod. Build contraptions powered by waterwheels and windmills, automate your farms, construct fully functional factories, and engineer solutions to problems you did not know you had. A curated selection of Create addons expands the possibilities further, from intricate trains with Steam 'n' Rails to enchantment automation with Enchantment Industry.
🍳 Food & Farming — Farmer's Delight Surviving in Gears & Grasslands means eating well. Farmer's Delight expands Minecraft's food system with new crops, cooking mechanics, and a wide variety of meals that provide meaningful buffs. Pair it with Create's automation capabilities and feeding an entire SMP server becomes an engineering challenge in itself.
🔭 Immersive Visuals — Distant Horizons & Shaders Gears & Grasslands includes curated shader support and Distant Horizons, pushing your view distance far beyond vanilla limits. Chunky pre-generates the world ahead of time, ensuring smooth performance and a seamless visual experience the moment you step outside your base.
🗺️ Guided Progression — Coming Soon A quest-based progression guide is currently in development, designed to help players navigate the mods and find their footing at their own pace. Due to the scope of the pack, implementing a full questline is a time-intensive process and may take a while before it sees further progress.
🤝 SMP-Friendly Design Every mod in this pack was chosen with multiplayer in mind. FTB Chunks lets you protect your builds, Waystones keep your group connected across the map, Lootr ensures every player gets their own loot in dungeons, and JourneyMap's web map lets everyone share and explore the world together.
