🚀 About
Race to the Moon – Relaunched is a heartfelt revival of the legendary IballisticSquid, Stampy, and Yogscast era.
You’ll begin on Earth, mining and crafting your way through classic 1.7.10 tech.
Automate, industrialize, and innovate as you race your friends to be the first to set foot on the Moon.
And once you’ve made it there, the adventure continues — out to Mars and beyond.
This pack captures the heart of the original Race to the Moon while updating it with modern performance, cleaner visuals, and backported features that make it feel alive again.
✨ What Makes It Special
🌕 The True Classic Restored
Every original mod from the iconic YouTube series is here:
Galacticraft • BuildCraft • IndustrialCraft² • Thermal Expansion • Applied Energistics • Tinkers’ Construct • and many more…
No replacements. No compromises. Just the authentic tech, exploration, and creativity that made the series unforgettable.
⚡ Modern Stability and Performance
Under the hood, the pack runs smoother than ever.
Optimizations from Angelica (a Sodium-based renderer), ArchaicFix (Phosphor Backport), Hodgepodge, and BugTorch deliver:
- Massive FPS improvements
- Faster chunk loading
- Crash-free performance
All without changing the look or feel of the game.
🔧 Rebalanced, Refined, and Fair
Old exploits, infinite loops, and dupe bugs have been patched to keep the game competitive and fun.
You’ll still find creative ways to outsmart your friends — just not by breaking the game.
🧱 Modern Minecraft, Classic Heart
With Et Futurum Requiem, this pack backports newer Minecraft features into 1.7.10:
- Updated world generation and mechanics
- Modern blocks, items, and mobs
- Visual polish and sound improvements
These additions make the world feel alive — bridging old-school modded Minecraft with the comfort and smoothness of newer versions.
