WorkshopCraft

"We should not allow it to be believed that all scientific progress can be reduced to mechanisms, machines, gearings, even though such machinery also has its beauty. Neither do I believe that the spirit of adventure runs any risk of disappearing in our world." -Marie Curie

What is WorkshopCraft?

WorkshopCraft is a kitchen-sink style modpack for Minecraft Beta 1.7.3. It includes a wide variety of mods, including fan-favorite classics, obscure gems, and new fixes and tweaks from the Modification Station Discord!

I've been working on (and playing) this pack on-and-off for the past few months, and I figured I would share it with the Beta Minecraft modding community.

While most of the gameplay is focused on settling, industrialization, automation, and base building/defense, exploration and adventure still has its place in this modpack thanks to mods such as The Aether and Millénaire.

What can I do in WorkshopCraft?

  • Feed your inner nostalgia for Minecraft Beta and its modifications
  • Build huge, complex bases
  • Explore dimensions
  • Interact with civilizations
  • Manufacture weapons
  • Develop factories
  • Mine & craft with over 1,700 unique items!

I also created a texture pack that changes some of the game's GUI elements:

Please feel free to mess with the configuration files to disable some tweaks I made to them, such as disabling the tall grass.

This pack has not been extensively tested AT ALL. There will most likely be issues and crashes, so please report them to me on Discord (jcdwalle#7023)!
