Knothole Factory

A modpack I have created to play with my friends, using Skyfactory 4 as a base and adding onto it from there.

Just like Skyfactory 4, the point of this mod is to try and survive while starting with just a single block of dirt and a tree. Plus, there are more things to play around with late game, such as flower magic (Botania), cross breeding trees, bees, and flowers (Forestry), and creating a massive tech factory (IC2, EnderIO, BuildCraft)!

I have also modified some of the below mods, including adding missing recipes from Skye’s Bakery, some compatibility between mods, and a guidebook for the Chinjufu Mod (called Guide to Japanese Cuisine) added in via patchouli.

I created this project to make it easy to distribute the modpack I want to play with my friends amongst them.
