Mechanical Horizons Aeronautics

Every great machine begins with a single turning shaft.

Mechanical Horizons: Aeronautics is a story-driven tech and automation pack for Minecraft 1.21.1. Build physics-simulated airships with Create Aeronautics, grow from a hand-cranked shaft to fusion reactors and particle accelerators, run an economy with real coins and shops, and uncover what happened to the city that once flew above the clouds.

Three hundred years ago, the Horizon Guild raised the Aerie: a city of brass and canvas that sailed above the clouds on a single machine, the Horizon Engine. Then came the night they called the Overclock. For eleven seconds the Aerie climbed faster than anything had ever climbed. Then it fell.

You are an apprentice who has found the logbook of Master Wright Ada Corrin, the Aerie’s navigator. The world blames greed for the fall. Ada says it was not that simple, and she should know: she plotted the course.

Every school of the old Guild survives in fragments. Master each one, and another page of Ada’s log unlocks. The Cogwrights, the Windwrights, the Foundry, the Conduit Choir, the Consortium, the Deep Works and the Vaultkeepers each have a story to tell, and none of them tell it the same way.

• 585 quests across 12 chapters, from your first andesite alloy to quantum circuits and singularities, with clear descriptions and colour-coded items, numbers and controls.
• The Horizon Logs: a story chapter that unfolds as you progress, in three acts with recurring characters and a mystery to solve.
• Real airships: Create Aeronautics turns your builds into physics-simulated vessels. Add balloons, propellers and levitite for lift, Aeroworks cockpits and control desks, and Create Propulsion thrusters, wings and fuel systems. Arm them with Create Big Cannons, track the skies with Create Radars, or take a lighter plane up with Immersive Aircraft.
• Deep tech progression across Create, Immersive Engineering, Modern Industrialization, Oritech, Powah, PneumaticCraft and Applied Energistics 2. Every mod has its own chapter and its own path.
• A working economy with Lightman’s Currency: mint coins, open shops and vending machines, trade items, fluids and energy across the server with network traders, and keep your savings in the bank.
• Land that costs money: claims with FTB Chunks are paid in coins, protections cost upkeep, and teams can sell land, organize regions, and even declare war.
• Ruins worth flying to: YUNG’s Better dungeons, mineshafts, temples, fortresses and monuments, plus Repurposed Structures, give your airship somewhere to go.
• Built for friends: everything works in multiplayer, from shared quests to team bank accounts and claims.
• Looks the part: a custom main menu, Iris shader support with Complementary shaders included, and performance mods so it runs well with 388 mods.

388 mods in total. See the full list in the Relations tab.

Requirements: Minecraft 1.21.1 with NeoForge (installed automatically by the CurseForge app). Allocate at least 8 GB of RAM for the best experience.
