CobbleMans
CobbleMans is a Minecraft 1.21.1 NeoForge modpack built around Cobblemon, Create, Applied Energistics 2, and Create: Aeronautics.
The pack is designed to turn a normal Minecraft world into a long-term multiplayer sandbox where players can collect Pokémon, automate resources, build factories, construct airships and moving contraptions, create shops, explore expanded world generation, and build large decorative bases without losing the familiar feel of vanilla Minecraft.
What can you do?
Catch, train, and battle Pokémon with Cobblemon.
Pokémon appear throughout the world and become a major part of exploration and progression. Extra Cobblemon content adds things like raid dens, trainers, integrations, and additional systems so Pokémon are not just a side feature.
Build complex machines and factories with Create.
Instead of relying only on traditional block machines, players can build mechanical systems using belts, gears, shafts, contraptions, processing lines, and moving structures. A large collection of Create addons expands this into more automation, logistics, decoration, weapons, and utility.
Build airships and mobile machines with Create: Aeronautics.
Players can construct physics-based vehicles and flying contraptions rather than being limited to stationary bases. This makes transportation and engineering a bigger part of progression and gives players reasons to design functional ships, moving bases, and cargo systems.
Create advanced storage and automation networks with Applied Energistics 2.
As bases grow, players can move from ordinary chests into digital storage, crafting automation, terminals, and large item networks. This makes late-game organization and automation much easier to manage.
Trade using a real in-game economy.
Create: Numismatics adds currency, banks, vendors, and player shops. Villager trading is also tied into the currency system, giving players a way to earn money naturally and then spend it with other players or automated shops.
Explore a much larger and more varied world.
The pack expands biomes, structures, caves, mobs, and exploration content. Players can find new locations, resources, enemies, and points of interest while searching for Pokémon or places to build.
Build detailed towns, homes, factories, and interiors.
A large selection of furniture, decoration, food, lighting, and building mods gives players far more options for creating detailed bases and settlements instead of purely functional builds.
Use improved movement, inventory tools, animations, and quality-of-life features.
The pack includes tools for inventory management, building, navigation, Waystones, homes, improved animations, cosmetic features, and other small improvements intended to make everyday gameplay smoother.
How does this change the Minecraft experience?
CobbleMans is designed to make progression less linear than vanilla Minecraft.
Instead of only mining for better gear and defeating bosses, players can choose their own focus. One player might spend most of their time training Pokémon, another might build a massive Create factory, another might run a shop, while someone else builds an airship and explores thousands of blocks away.
These systems are meant to interact with each other. For example, a player might use Create machinery to process materials, store them in an AE2 network, transport them by airship, sell them using Numismatics vendors, and spend the money on items gathered by other players.
The pack is primarily designed for a small multiplayer server with friends, but it can also be played in singleplayer.
