Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Forge only.

Minecraft 1.19.2Newest
Minecraft 1.18.2
Minecraft 1.16.5

⬇ Download for 1.19.2 ⬇ Download for 1.18.2 ⬇ Download for 1.16.5

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Taking inspiration from the Factorio-like genre, PROTECT THE MONOLITH is a tech quest-based pack highly dependable on automated mining, pollution management, base defense, and assembly lines.

You spawn around a monolith. And the challenge is to expand your factory without corrupting your Home. And do so while dealing with the Nether Leaks around your base.

Swarms of monsters will spawn from time to time, and if you aren't careful, you'll lose your monolith core, closing your easy access to space. And losing access to hard-to-reproduce technologies.
