About this mod
As of Minecraft 1.20.4, Modern Industrialization is now exclusive to NeoForge. Fabric is not supported anymore on recent versions.
Don't forget to install EMI, JEI, or REI to see the recipes in-game. We recommend using Jade too! It's optional, but it helps a lot!
FAQ
Is this GregTech?
MI is inspired by GregTech, but we have removed all the tedious parts, and we are going in our own direction.
What exactly are the differences with GregTech?
- MI doesn't and will never change the way Minecraft works. No nerfing or changing of recipes, same ore generation as vanilla (small patches of ores), ...
- MI doesn't have the 10 annoying crafting tools. No need to craft a new hammer/wrench/file/mortar/... every 20 recipes. Instead, it has a single optional tool that can be used to have the optimal material conversion ratios without machines.
- MI has a very powerful pipe system that allows you to automate your setups very early. No need to grind for hours without any automation.
- MI is very resource-hungry, but you'll get a quarry early on that will entirely remove your need for mining if you care to automate it.
- MI doesn't have 10 tiers of every possible machine. Instead, it uses an original overclock system allowing machines and multiblocks to reach 1 craft / tick provided you have enough upgrades and energy.

How do you start Modern Industrialization?
Begin with basic material processing — the Forge Hammer and early machines — to double ores and craft components. The early-game guide covers fundamental processing and automation.
How do you make steel in Modern Industrialization?
Steel is an early milestone made by processing iron through the mod's machines. The component-crafting and early-game guides cover the steps toward steel and beyond.
What are the energy tiers in Modern Industrialization?
Machines run on tiered energy (LV, MV, HV and higher), and higher tiers unlock faster, more complex machines. The high-tech assembly and energy guide covers scaling power.
How do you do chemical processing in Modern Industrialization?
Dedicated machines handle chemical reactions and fluid processing to produce industrial chemicals. The chemical-and-fluid guide details these machines.
What is the goal of Modern Industrialization?
The mod aims for total automation, scaling from basic ore doubling to complex multi-step assembly lines and high-tier energy, culminating in advanced end-game machines.
