Quick answer

Which The Minehattan Project release should I use?

Updated 2 years ago
Latest stable file The Minehattan Project 5.0.6
Game version 1.19.2
Loader Forge

The Minehattan Project 5.0.6 is a complete pack release for 1.19.2 with Forge. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. Could not safely read this pack file.

Pack setup

How should I set up The Minehattan Project for players and a server?

Use The Minehattan Project 5.0.6 as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.

Client instance Install The Minehattan Project 5.0.6
Dedicated server setup Match The Minehattan Project 5.0.6
Pack loader Forge

A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.

What are the server requirements for The Minehattan Project?

The Minehattan Project 5.0.6. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.

Could not safely read this pack file

The selected pack release is The Minehattan Project 5.0.6. That file is for Minecraft 1.19.2 with Forge. We could not safely count the mods in this release. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

About this project

What kind of pack is The Minehattan Project?

Welcome to The Minehattan Project

High-tech warfare on a global scale.

What's it all about?

This pack contains a curated selection of technology mods, designed around the concept of a multiplayer 'cold war' scenario. Build a defensive bunker, automate your ores, construct shielding and storage solutions, and - perhaps most importantly - have an arms race with lasers, rocket launchers, and powerful explosives.

Help, I've run into a problem!

Which version should I play?

The Minehattan Project was made for a YouTube series in 2013, with a later update in 2014. The older versions still work as intended, but please note they will not be updated in any major way - only if they desperately need fixing!

If you want an old-school arms race with an assortment of classic mods, go for version 1 for Minecraft 1.5.2.

To get the most authentic experience, I recommend version 2 for Minecraft 1.6.4.

Version 5 is the current version for Minecraft 1.19.2, which will give you a traditional Minehattan Project experience with a few new twists! No turtling allowed.

In case you're wondering: versions 3 and 4, for MC 1.12.1 and 1.12.2 respectively, do exist - but they lack many of the key mods which make the pack what it is, so I didn't think it was worth putting in the time to release them.
