About this modpack

Mechnically Challenged is exactly how it sounds: a modpack focused on the machinery and factory-building of the amazing Create mod paired with the challenge of having to unlock tools, blocks, workstations, and resources through various skills. Perfect for players who want more depth and difficulty than vanilla Minecraft can offer, while not going overboard with the amount of technology or other content mods.

... and much more!

For users with an NVIDIA GPU, Nvidium is included for best possible performance at higher render distances. Complementary Shaders, as well as some additional resource packs, are enabled by default.

For best performance, I recommend using 8GB of memory with Java 21 and the following Java arguments:
