10 Ancient Minecraft Modpacks You Forgot About

Minecraft modpacks are an incredible feat, combating compatability issues and creating a unique minecraft experience every time. However, it wasn't always easy, as in the early days of minecraft, modpacks were difficult and time consuming to create. Let's revisit some of the best of all time, and take a trip through history. This is 10 old minecraft modpacks you forgot about.

HE'S ALIVE! what other modpacks do you remember?

[@Brainstrom44]

I remember the tnt one with so many and a dinosaur one aswell!!

[@Mad_Megan]

IIRC this one was never released to the public, but I loved the Yogscast series on their custom moonquest modpack. That series was my first introduction into the world of modded minecraft and I occasionally rewatch it to this day!

[@spectrex3169]

Mysticraft and thaumcraft were underrated

[@monotonehell]

Argh back in the day (2011) I used to spend a few days trying to pull a MonoPack together. The number of conflicts I had to resolve was so high. MonoPack0 and MonoPack1 were the worst. After that the tools made it easier. By the time I did MonoPack6 it took like 10 minutes.

[@BasGamingNL]

i remember a modpack on technic launcher made by dantdm but i sadly don't remember the name

[@MegaRazorback]

Oh god, Crash Landing...That modpack while hard left out one key bit of information regarding creepers and that is that hot stuff outside, it used to be a creeper magnet and due to how they functioned in the pack if you didn't disable mob griefing you ended up with this huge ass hole around that hot stuff because they kept exploding on death after touching the stuff.

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

Crash Landing is a classic, i still remember Ssundee's playthrough and MinecraftUniverse's

[@starfeltcomfort9246]

I remember watching someone play Crash Landing before I got a minecraft account. The pack is a bit too outdated for me, and I'm sad that no one has made a modern version of it.

[@napalmstrike2007]

what I loved the most was not being able to craft the nuclear reactor and such stuff, and having to go to the city to loot some reactors. For some reason it felt right.

[@turlockREAL]

​​@@starfeltcomfort9246there's a recent 1.12.2 fan remake on curseforge called 'Dusty Hell'

[@turlockREAL]

​@@napalmstrike2007by nuclear reactors you mean Big Reactors? The cities that had the reactor buildings contained components to make a reactor and a turbine from Big Reactors

[@luckylmj]

calling some of these modpacks "ancient" is making me feel extremely old

[@creepers152ee]

Same, i use to play a some of these modpacks when i was a kid. Some of them i keep revisiting because they were great.

[@PeachIceCreamy]

I feel so fucking old. I remember hack/mine. I remember crash landing. I remember regrowth. I remember, not just technic, but tekkit. Jesus christ man... i really am getting old. I even played sevtech earlier this year.

[@realtrollface101]

☝️Old people

[@SurnameName]

​@@PeachIceCreamy rest in piss, tekkit. replaced by better modpacks not built around treating mod creators like dirt

[@theapexsurvivor9538]

How to feel old as the stones: Equivalent Exchange 2 was last supported almost as close to the turn of the Millennium as to present day, and as of ~September it'll be closer to Y2K than to us.

[@hariranormal5584]

The thumbnail is nostalgic lol. I was immediately like "WAIT THAT's crash landing"

[@dean_l33]

Ssundee and Craig immediately flashbang my memory

[@DarkSpiritZypher]

Literally the only reason I'm here

[@surge1229]

most of the mods in crash landing actually did update to 1.12.2 meaning someone could make a 1.12.2 version of the modpack with a few missing mods

[@killerxphantom]

Hopefully someone does! If not I might give it a go with the quests and all xD I loved that pack!

[@Sopsy_Hallow]

@@killerxphantom there is the "forever stranded" pack which is practically the same thing in a more modern version (1.10) although its not 1 to 1, and maybe you could make a modpack that is closer to the original, its also not that meaninfully different

[@eragonawesome]

Gimme a week, I've been inspired

[@agenericidiot7285]

@@eragonawesome will be looking forward to it...

[@Thor0510]

Dusty hell

[@MrIdonneva]

Two modpacks I think deserve to be up here are Agrarian Skies and Voltz. Agrarian Skies essentially created the skyblock questing genre and Voltz is just another unique and important modpack

[@axol.6455]

I watched so much voltz content when I couldn't play it

[@jacksonmagas9698]

Yeah I expected agrarian skies to be on this list, another notable mention might be Material Energy^3

[@Myne1001]

@@jacksonmagas9698 I remember ME^3 because EthosLab had been promising for years that he was going to do a custom singleplayer modpack series, then out of nowhere said he was doing ME^3 and got *huge* levels of backlash. Only 1 video was ever made on it.

[@One_of_few]

God Agrarian Skies. we booted up a Agrarian Skies Sever few months ago and just playing that pack again just was so enjoyable. Voltz is also one of my favs. The Voltz comuity pack is the "newer" Is great but doesn't have the same Feel

[@madhattermaker622]

I have a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to Voltz but that's purely my own fault. I didn't wanna go creative mode and spoil everything so when I found out what a Red matter bomb was and I didn't have enough time to get an anti matter bomb to cancel it, it was goodbye world.

[@zeromortalsplan]

Blood N' Bones is also up there. Arguably one of the best-designed difficult modpacks to this day because it maintains the vanilla feel while making you rethink how you play the entire game

[@ScrombIo]

b&b was an expert modpack where you actually had to be an expert instead of the grindfests that plague the expert name now

[@jacksongrantham4848]

Man that modpack and Crash Landing were what got me into watching SSundee lol

[@jayewrite1256]

I was just about to comment blood N bones because this was a pack I remember Ssundee doing and loved the anxiety it gave me with each episode as I didn’t know when the world would be deleted. Really wish there was a modern version of it but I also know if there was it wouldn’t be the same.

[@sagi21]

I have some modpacks that I remember right now: 1. Captain Sparklez's Ultra Modded Survival 2. Atlantic Craft's Jurassic Craft 3. Attack Of The B-Team And there are many more that I would remember.

[@James-gd3sp]

Oh man, the ultra modded survival intro is ingrained into my head. 10 years ago, wow.

[@NebulatheZorua]

BTeam was fuckin awesome

[@insertname1857]

omg attack of the bteam was great

[@sagi21]

There is also Crazy Craft

[@jakobknudsen6864]

Attack Of The B-Team was fantastic, good shout!

[@RyuakiraX]

Daring to assume I forgot Crash Landing I see. Thanks to Etho, I still think about it on the regular.

[@Myne1001]

I also remember him playing a 1.8 custom map that was in the spirit of Crash Landing using command blocks. It was pretty decent for the time, nothing on the levels of the datapacks we have today.

[@TheGameMage_]

I remember it because of SSundee, and then later when I got a decent laptop and even later I now have a better PC I still try to survive in that modpack. Also tried Blood and Bones (with my friend calling me a masochist for trying to keep playing in Hardcore)

[@DarkSpiritZypher]

Here we go a man of culture watching Etho

[@Mad_Megan]

A modern modpack I've seen that appears to have a similar concept to Regrowth is FTB Genesis on the Feed the Beast launcher. Might be worth a shot for anyone who is a fan of Regrowth

[@ShadowEclipse777]

There's also another dead mod from the same era with a similar concept, Blightfall. The goal is to survive in a pre-made world consumed by Thaumcrafts's Taint and slowly eventually work on cleansing it

[@trainman5675]

​@@ShadowEclipse777well it was complet3d entirely

[@christhebear2003]

Yay! Thank you! Regrowth was my favourite modpack to play and it’s a real shame how old the version is

[@eragonawesome]

​@@ShadowEclipse777 fucking loved blightfall, that was a really well done pack

[@crowshadowfire1177]

@@ShadowEclipse777 @eragonawesome I just found out that blightfall got updated like... last year. Always wanted to play it as a kid but it never worked, very happy to be able to live my childhood dream.

[@Stmate03]

some of my perosnal favorites that are worth mentioning: - CrazyCraft: I grew up watching CrazyCraft and it was a blast to watch my favorite youtubers pull off insane stunts with the modpack - Attack of the B team: idk if this was popular but to me it was a classic, it's just right there on technic grew up playing that - Blightfall: funny story I was playing on an SMP and realized that Thaumcraft 6 is kinda underwhelming, then Blightfall just popped straight into my mind, the tainted landscape, story, custom progression, ores, map, now that was the good stuff, so good I finally decided after being scared or failing the modpack to try again and I actually started thriving, I personally think Blightfall was also one of the more top notch hardcore experiences to this day, highly recommend, and still playable on technic!

[@le_zoink]

I love Blightfall! It doesn't get enough love or recognition imo.

[@jakobknudsen6864]

Thaumcraft 6 was left half-finished, but there are some great addons to it that go a long way toward fleshing it out.

[@Wolfie2TMX]

I've been playing blightfall again recently for the past month and it's been so much fun!

[@tus9982]

I remember watching Ssundee’s playtrough of crazy craft. It was my introduction to Minecraft modded and I find it to be one of the most nostalgic modpacks.

[@Stmate03]

@@tus9982 SAME! it was especially awesome when Crainer got introduced and they started the entire troll wars, man I miss the old days

[@rodrigotr04]

Agrarian Skies is one OG modpack, if I'm not mistaken it was the first modpack to include a mod dedicated to quests with the book. Previously you needed to do things manually like Feed the Beast did.

[@Mnnvint]

Yes, the questbook mod was written for Agrarian Skies. One modpack which JadedCat cited as inspiration for Agrarian Skies was Sky Den by TGWeaver.

[@asrialthe6th29]

The Volts mod pack. Mostly known for the red matter bomb from the original ICBM mod and yogscast multiplayer series.

[@Sebbir]

They just wanted some copper 😂

[@JakeP2013]

I think technic/tekkit just had the unfortunate burden of being "first to market" as the widely popular modpack of choice and grew to be way bigger than the original creators ever intended on it being. The whole "permission" drama was very frustrating at the time, I remember mods being quietly removed on occasion with new updates. Some mod creators at the time were also way more protective of their distribution, as it seemed like their adfly links were their primary method of making money. But, Technic having these issues did allow the FTB launcher to catch on fairly quickly by perfecting the modpack model and avoiding technic's mistakes.

[@michaelsasylum]

It wasn't mod authors protecting a tiny revenue stream, it was the FTB team intentionally doing it to damage Tekkit.

[@JakeP2013]

@@michaelsasylum that wouldn't surprise me if that was the case, things did get pretty toxic from memory.

[@Myne1001]

I remember SirSengir coded the Forestry Mod's beehives to explode if it detected it was a Technic or Tekkit modpack.

[@JakeP2013]

@@Myne1001 yep I remember him specifically being the most vocal about it. Looking back it seems like a weird hill to die on, especially when he was simultaneously endorsing the FTB packs, just left a bad taste in my mouth.

[@notme8232]

Like how GregTech would crash if it detected Tinkers Construct (TC undid GT's wood planks nerf)

[@xlicer]

Honorable mentions to Agrarian Skies both 1 and 2 and the Material Energy, specially the heavily underrated Factorio inspired Material Energy Capital. Also, found it weird that you want each modpack updated to the newest versions. Maybe modern re-imaginings and ports yeah. But updated it to another version of Minecraft? Impossible, too many mods are version exclusive and even updated can be heavily different from an mc version to another.

[@ScrombIo]

seeing crash landing on the ancient modpacks list made me feel so old. when i think of ancient modpacks i think of hack/mine, your ftb monument completions (pax pack) etc

[@dreamymaccready2287]

one modpack I'd have to say was pretty influential back in the say was the og agrarian skies. imo it was the first major innovation in a skyblock modpack since the original ftb and a lot if it's DNA can be found in modern skyblock modpacks like project ozone and skyfactory

[@Nove.]

I feel like Blightfall deserves a spot. The concept is so unique and interesting I really do wish it got updated or reimagined into a newer version of minecraft

[@memethief4113]

because of changes to Thaumcraft it can't ever be updated past 1.7.10, but it has gotten new updates the past few months thanks to a new developer taking up the project

[@user-jk8vh3cw2x]

the build craft footage at the start gave me nostalgia on steroids

[@Myne1001]

BuildCraft is the best mod imho. Been patiently waiting for it to be updated to a new version for over 4 years now (latest version is 1.12, the dev is working on a newer version but no ETA when that will be)

[@escolasticoyt4507]

Agrarian Skies 1 and 2; and Regrowth will always hold a special place in my heart as the packs that reignited my passion for modded

So, Crash landing kind of had a spiritual successor called Forever stranded which functions near identically. last update was on 3/30/24, but is on version 1.10.2

[@burnergone5127]

[@GuyFromCanada]

Attack of the B-Team and Hexxit were oldies that I miss. Hexxit in particular had an adventurous spirit that no modpack has achieved before or since.

Fun video, it was nice taking a trip down memory lane. It was also super cool to see the good old FTB Pyramid Map and Modpack I had the pleasure of working on get included.

[@EVILBUNNY28]

Tekkit Classic, and FTB Unleashed will forever be the two mod packs I had the most memories with. FTB Ultimate a close second place.

[@adohira_8053]

An old modpack I don't see get talked about that was a huge part of my childhood is Attack of the B team, and also it's sequel modpack Revenge of the C team, they were both mad by I believe GenericB who was a Minecraft KZbinr (I don't know if he is anymore or not)

[@highgogoat]

[@ThinkWithMods]

Similar vein to the technic packs mentioned, but Hexxit had tons of exploration. The Sky Den modpack was also great (learned about it from Captain Sparklez's series on it) Some of these old packs still show interesting game design that has not been replicated since.

[@Mnnvint]

Hexxit was also cited by JadedCat as one of the inspirations for Magic Farm/Agrarian Skies. Hexxit was the first major pack to include the Tinker's modpack where you build a smeltery and cast custom tools, and was probably important in popularizing it.

[@TheNeoCubest]

thank you so much for making this video, seriously. so many memories

[@vilie1586]

FTB Horizons on 1.6.4 is my all time favorite, it introduced some lesser known mods at the time and really filled the overworld with a great variety of content in form of biomes, ores, structures and mobs. I got introduced to it through a yt series called Neuland. The thing that catched me was the unique world generation, you could get green and lush valleys that where surrounded by high snowy mountains on all sides, the perfect spot to build a starting base.

[@Magrijack]

Blightfall! That modpack was legendary for me when I was starting with Minecraft. It’s very similar to Regrowth in that you have to clear an island of alien taint using Thaumcraft. It combines magic and tech and uses hardcore questing to drive a storyline. I am surprised you didn’t mention it, but the ones you chose were just as good to me.

[@Cocoecake]

omg Blightfalls the best! They updated it a few years ago too for the plotline and bug fixes!✨

[@thesadleviathan5416]

Dear god you unlocked a memory with that Yogbox gameplay. I remember watching that particular video, with Simon waking up and the dolphin, using my parents dvd player that connected to the internet to play KZbin videos, and was genuinely my first ever experience with Minecraft. I can’t believe that so many years later it wasn’t just me misremembering a video.

[@F0rtuneLT]

As someone whos been playing mc for close to 12 years, it is impossible to truly overstate how impressive these packs were on a technical level due to the state of the games coding at the time. You couldn't just drop a jar file into your mods folder, there was a process you had to go through, files you had to edit/delete entirely in order for certain mods to work, it was a genuine labor of love to get these working

[@Cry_ct]

It would be surprising to find out if someone still had a copy of the original technic just buried in their files

[@koneeche]

AW MAN. I feel old. I remember ALL of these! I also remember Voltz (another iconic one from the Yogscast), FTB Unleashed (the "newest" large modpack for its time), and some others.

[@sekhetbast-ra8457]

If you ever do another 10 old Modpacks vid I think Agrarian Skies would be a good addition. Fun video, I played a number of the ones you mentioned :)

[@Ceolis]

Was not ready for how emotional seeing hack slash mine and obscurity would make me

[@Piman1607]

Idk if its classic, but there was a pack called "compact claustrophobia" which i would compare to skyblock. But is quite different as space was scarce and hard to come by to build your machines. Really neat, highly recomend looking i to it.

[@jacksonmagas9698]

I wouldn't put it into the category "ancient modpacks you might have forgot about" though because even though it is relatively old it has had a lot of staying power because there haven't really been any newer packs of the same style.

[@AdiososPL]

I would like to see your video featuring 10 nostalgic texturepacks

[@Mimirai]

Blightfall was a modpack with a very similar concept to regrowth, but with thaumcraft taint instead of "its just all dead lol".

Yogbox, Crash Landing, Regrowth, Agrarian Skies 2 - my favourite, I come back to them every few months

[@draganthebest]

TEKKIT was one of the first modpacks that I have ever tried and always brings back nostalgia when the old videos pop up. It is also the modpack that inspired me to take an engineering route in life so it was very influential (on me at least).

[@KyanoAng3l0]

I'm grateful for today's launchers and mod pack-friendly modders. Been wanting to publish my own mod pack since Beta, and now it's crazy easy and convenient. The major problem I see is the different mod loaders _and_ platforms to get mods from.

Voidpack Skyblock from the Technic launcher, i had to fire up my old install of the technic launcher to see what modpacks i had, and i remember fondly playing that one, it was my first experience with skyblock, and its become one of my favorite kinds of modpacks ever since, also as far as quirky modpacks, "Attack of the B-Team" and "Magic Farm" were wild

[@le_zoink]

A modpack similar to Regrowth was called Blightfall, where you are tasked to terraform an alien planet that is covered in Thaumcraft taint. It was also a 1.7.10 modpack, and was a default Technic Launcher pack alongside Tekkit and Hexxit. Blightfall was one of my first modpack experiences, and is to this day my favourite extreme survival modpack.

[@catgirlleah]

There was another end of the world modpack, it was called "Steve's Legacy" it had galacticraft and stuff, too

[@FirefoxEzo]

i still play technic from time to time, its how my best friend and i meet. FTB was fun but i never really got far down to my poor laptop at the time would crash constantly

[@linuslilja]

Material Energy^3 was one of my favorite modpacks like a modded adventure map

[@techpriestemily]

Hexxit and Agrarian Skies are the first two elders unmentioned that I can think of.

[@gannonkenny]

I’m surprised no one mentioned Material Energy and the subsequent sequels. I feel like it was towards being one of the first to have sequels to itself in terms of modpacks. It also had an okay story, and some pretty fun and unique play styles doing things with mods you probably didn’t even know you could do. (For example, the whole basis of it uses applied energistics to store physical space. How often have you used that mechanic?) There were also loads of quests, trophies, and even a metric load of secrets to find. (One of my favorite being in ME^4 before the modpack really begins, in an area you’re not allowed to return to, you can collect blocks and build out to other platforms to get a bunch of cool unique loot!) Also, the fourth installment came out around the same time as regrowth and crash landing and had at least a few series covering it (Direwolf and yogscast iirc). To me at least, these three were essentially a perfect trio of early modpacks.

[@csikocska]

I remember playing a modpack for Minecraft version 1.7.10 that had a custom sound effect and music pack. That modpack is "Awakening". There, not only was the mining level of the ores changed, but the mods were put with each other with scripts, configs and tweaks, so the modpack offered a slightly different gaming experience. Although I didn't finished all questlines of Awakening modpack, I enjoyed to do the tasks. 🙂

[@coolsnake1134]

This brings back so much good nostalgia, the thing that really got me into modded was hosting a LAN party with my friends and playing feed the beast monster on version 1.6.4. But the thing that's stuck out with that was we all had computers it could easily pull 1,100 Watts from the wall and we were tripping the breakers like crazy meaning I had extension cords running all over my parents house. By the second day of the party we ended up having to move it to the basement and I rigged up temporary circuits out of the electrical panel because people were tripping over all the cords running throughout the kitchen and living room

[@arpadpinter6050]

Life in the woods & LitW:R not mentioned? These are the forgottenest of old modpacks, and truly beautiful too, surprised to not see em here.

[@TrideGD]

Someone else might've commented this, but you can still access the technic pack in the technic launcher. If you go to the website, then official packs, it's listed there along with stuff like hack slash mine and the big dig pack

[@BanditLeader]

Yes but tekkit and technic aren't the same pack

[@TrideGD]

@@BanditLeader No like it's actually the technic pack in it's latest update of 1.2.5. Different mods to tekkit classic, it is legitimately the original official technic pack

[@BanditLeader]

@@TrideGD and? he was talking about tekkit, not technic, even tho the chapter says technic

[@TrideGD]

@@BanditLeader I suggest you rewatch that part of the video lmao

[@BanditLeader]

@@TrideGD you right. my bad. i must have been hallucinating through that part

I love crash landing. Played it back in 2019 even though its quiten old. The water/heat survival element adds so much to the difficulty whick I liked. Along with how many mobs would spawn it made it very enjoyable. Wish there were more modpacks that did a similar thing.

One modpack I still play to this day is FTB Ultimate, the 1.4.7 version. I now have quite the base, and all I needed to do was to tweak one or two things. I've also played the FTB Pyramid challenges and enjoyed them.

Sundee playing crash landing and ftb got me into watching multiplayer modded minecraft

[@earthtree7638]

God crash landing was fantastic. I remember my favorite series on it was from Huskymudkipz back before he removed most of his vids. Now he only has the 1st 10 of a few series, but he did 2 on Crash landing, both were great

[@csikocska]

Oh yes, thank you for mentioning SevTech Ages modpack. Ther eI have learnt to use Immersive Engineering, Mekanism, Galacticraft and other tech mods after passing the first 3 ages. 🙂 I remember I watched a playthrough video series made by three Hungarian KZbinrs I like their video contents nowadays. That modpack is "The Ferret Business". That modpack had a well written backstory and randomised reward bags. 🙂

I've been trying to remember Hack / Mine for years. What a trip.

[@montydoesstuff8445]

Hey, I saw Crash Landing in the thumbnail, and was thinking "Someone is playing this!" so I didn't forget about it!

[@Nosypoke]

You better make a part 2 to this with crazy craft in it

[@ZWS_Link]

A modpack similar to regrowth is the "End of Earth" modpack popularised by TheWaffleGalaxy. He's got some very nostalgic modpacks on his channel. I used to watch them whilst playing hardcore survival.

[@decentkiller1236]

One modpack I not only remember but still play is Blood and Bones. Normally it doesn't work right after the download but many talented people have found out a fix for it in the code. Sadly it will never get an official update but its a hard pack meant for those who wish for a challenge.

[@superghost12262]

Have you ever talked about Blightfall? It's probably my most favorite and memorable mod packs

[@kirbyischilling7565]

Hexxit bro, it was my first ever modpack and legit super fun every time you launch and play it, and once I saw they made an official Hexxit 2 I leapt for the moon and back

[@jessst3r926]

I've Been Trying To Remember The Name Of The Regrowth Pack For Afew Weeks Now, I Could Remember Alot Of Good Memories I Had With It Just Not The Name, Thank You So Much For Helping Me Find It Again

[@MrFilgueiras.]

I was expecting you to mention Agrarian skies, it was the first hardcore questing pack that I ever played, I still remember playing it at 15 fps up until the machines made it impossible to log into the world without killing my pc lmao

[@leeuwengames315]

i remember playing with those pipe you showed in the technic footage don't know if it was the modpack though since i was a child back then

[@thennoth2860]

I've not seen regrowth but the premise reminds me a bit of Blightfall, which is a great pack especially with friends.

[@wurststar9023]

The very first Modpack I played back in the day was Tekkit Lite with a friend that introduced me into Modded Minecraft.
