Abandoned
Unfortunately, this pack has been abandoned as of 17th July 2021. Due to a number of issues with the pack itself and things surrounding it, it became too difficult and no longer fun to keep working on it and so I won't be working on this anymore. I plan to do many bigger, better things instead, so it's not all bad.
Stranded Ashore
Stranded alone on an uncharted island, progress through the ages to build an automation empire using nothing but the natural resources you can find, eventually blasting off into space to colonise other planets!
This tech-focused pack completely overhauls the vanilla experience with mods such as TerraFirmaCraft providing completely new world generation, seasons, and more emphasis on managing your food and water supplies, while a whole new tech tree makes progressing through each of the ages fun and rewarding. Almost every crafting recipe has been changed, giving even the most experienced of modded players something new to learn and discover!
Along with this, the pack includes hundreds of new achievements and a guide book to take you through step-by-step when you get stuck, as well as a variety of challenges for the most dedicated of players to complete.
Neolithic Age
Starting with nothing but the sticks and rocks scattered on the floor, craft your very first tools, locate some copper and get started with metallurgy and making alloys. Be careful though, as hostile predators lurk in the pitch black darkness of the night. Getting a good supply of water and a crop farm going is crucial for surviving through the toughest age in the pack.
Steel Age
Armed with a tough new metal: steel, build up basic power generation with windmills and begin processing metals in large batches with the smeltery and a variety of multiblock machines.
Industrial Revolution
(This age is currently being developed and is subject to change)
With the power of electricity, the automation revolution can begin! Setup complex factories to produce all of the products you need and build expansive railway networks to connect up automated excavator outposts, use a variety of machines to retrieve and process crude oil from beneath the bedrock and make even better fuels and products.
Modern Era
(This age is currently being developed and is subject to change)
After discovering plastic production and a new superconducting metal alloy, more intelligent machines can be built. Command a fleet of programmable robots and optimise your factories like never before.
Space Age
(This age is currently being developed and is subject to change)
The materials available on Earth just won't cut it anymore, so it's time to explore space! Prepare a spaceship and make lots of rocket fuel, then blast off to the Moon and get digging. Plenty of rare materials and metals are just waiting to be excavated!
Interstellar Age
(This age is currently being developed and is subject to change)
Build colonies spanning across the entire solar system with upgraded spaceships to take you further than ever before, setup automated cargo rockets to ferry materials back to your factories, and use the vast amounts of materials you've collected throughout the ages to create the ultimate metal: Enderium.
While this may be the end of the journey, there's still plenty left to do! Take on the challenge of 100% completing every achievement or build the megastructures of your dreams. The possibilities are limitless.
Showcase
Built something amazing you'd like to show off or made a lets play of the pack? Send me a message and I'll include it here!
The Stranded Ashore Server
Here are a few builds we're making on our private multiplayer server! Note: many of these screenshots are of older version of the pack and some things have changed since then. Most of these builds were also done during the Neolithic Age on our server, but I'll keep updating the showcase as we progress through it ourselves!
Our world started with a small village built a little way from the original spawn point with a few houses and a blacksmith. The screenshot above is the train station built just before entering the Steel Age when we unlocked railways and steam trains.
Later, we built up the tracks and a small train depot where we store the trains when they're not in use. The rail network currently spans over 3km of track, connecting our main storage facility, the old village, and our upcoming factories and mining outposts together.
Here's an aerial view of our original village. Some of the buildings aren't complete yet, but it's a place we call home. The screenshot shows the train station in the back, the blacksmith, and a few of our houses built by various players on our small server.
Expect more screenshots here over time as we build up our world!
Bug Reports
Found something that isn't working quite right? Let me know by submitting a bug on the issue tracker! I'm still actively working on the pack and intend to continue making it for a long time, so keep a look out for new updates with fixes and tweaks.
