About this Modpack

Gearbound is a Minecraft survival modpack focused entirely on mechanical
technology and kinetic engineering. Instead of relying on digital automation
or magical networks, progression centers on physical motion, steam power,
and infrastructure development.

Core mechanics:

Mechanical Automation: Resource processing and factory lines are driven
by physical gear systems, belts, and kinetic power.
Logistics and Trains: Players design and operate fully functional steam
trains to transport cargo and connect distant outposts.
Exploration and Survival: The world generation and survival loop are
tailored to give large-scale industrial infrastructure a practical purpose.
Performance: The pack is optimized for stability, high frame rates,
and consistent performance during heavy automation.

Can I add custom mods to Project Gearbound without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (forge) and same Minecraft version (1.20.1). Common issues: ID conflicts with recipe mods and incompatible coremod versions. The Mado dashboard mod browser only shows compatible mods and warns about known conflicts.
