About The Minehattan Project

From Modrinth

Plutonium, pulverisers, and pointed sticks: war never changes.

Welcome to The Minehattan Project

High-tech warfare on a global scale.

What's it all about?

This pack contains a curated selection of technology mods, designed around the concept of a multiplayer 'cold war' scenario. Build a defensive bunker, automate your ores, construct shielding and storage solutions, and - perhaps most importantly - have an arms race with lasers, rocket launchers, and powerful explosives.

Help, I've run into a problem!

Please use the GitHub issue tracker to submit your issue. Don't forget to search first, and find out if it's been rectified already. Thanks!

Which mods are included?

There are over 100 mods within this pack! The main gameplay-affecting mods are as follows:

To see a full list, with links to each mod, see The Spreadsheet™.

Which version should I play?

The Minehattan Project was made for a YouTube series in 2013, with a later update in 2014. The older versions still work as intended, but please note they will not be updated in any major way - only if they desperately need fixing!

If you want an old-school arms race with an assortment of classic mods, go for version 1 for Minecraft 1.5.2.

To get the most authentic experience, I recommend version 2 for Minecraft 1.6.4.

Version 5 is the current version for Minecraft 1.19.2, which will give you a traditional Minehattan Project experience with a few new twists! No turtling allowed.

In case you're wondering: versions 3 and 4, for MC 1.12.1 and 1.12.2 respectively, do exist - but they lack many of the key mods which make the pack what it is, so I didn't think it was worth putting in the time to release them.
