Zan’s Minimap ( , ) - Adds a mini map in the upper right corner, this is very useful for many, because you can set special marks on the map so as not to lose it, for example beautiful place or just your home. But tags are not the only setting, there are quite a lot of them: such as displaying mobs, cardinal directions, your coordinates and level above the sea. There is an analogue of Rei's Minimap, which is very similar, so you can choose that too.

For people who love cleanliness and order, this mod will come in handy; there is no need to go through the hassle of arranging it yourself. Only 9th place, due to the fact that the mod does only one not to say big function, there are more global mods in which a lot of work has been done.
8th Place:
The Lord of the Rings ( , ) - famous world The Lord of the Rings has been transferred to Minecraft! The developers spent a lot of time adding so many objects from the film to the game, because there really are a lot of them - places, weapons, monsters. Want to see Gondor? It’s easy, you just need to take the cards and start traveling like a group of hobbits from the Shire (By the way, there is one too). Can you defeat Sauron in Minecraft? Well, try it, it's not that easy! After all, on his side are many different types of creatures, which only take the best weapons that you have to craft, and of course, crafting will require a lot of resources that you will look for throughout Middle-earth. You will definitely have to spend a lot of time to become the strongest in the completely new world of Minecraft.
7th place:
Millenaire (, ) - Standard villages in Minecraft are very simple and uninteresting, there is nothing special to do in them, this mod is aimed at adding new interesting features to NPC villages.

And the coolest thing is to create your own village and start developing it in various ways, very funny feature.
6th Place:
Mo" Creatures ( , ) - Are there few mobs in the standard version of the game? Really, if you compare with real world, in our beloved Minecraft there is not even 1% of all species, and this is not acceptable, which is why this mod was created. It adds new types of mobs, of course not as many as in real life, but definitely more than we have now. On at the moment There are 31 types of new mobs and varieties in the modification. And these are: Wyverns, Elephants, Mammoths, Monitor Lizards, Golems, Snails, Insects and many others.
5 Place:
Buildcraft ( , ) - The mod simplifies the extraction of minerals and the transportation of liquids. If you need to get a lot of resources for the IC2 mod or just resources, then now you don’t have to worry anymore. You just need to learn a fairly simple crafting system, and just place quarries where you see fit.
4 Place:
DivineRPG ( , ) - One of the largest modifications created for Minecraft, greatly expanding the boundaries of the game. Many new dimensions are being added, with their own structures and biomes, their own resources and mobs. New system player development, not as primitive as from the main developers of Minecraft. It will be possible to equip yourself with armor in a more interesting way; different varieties will appear: light and heavy, each with its own advantages. The game will become much more interesting, as new opponents and goals will appear. And each of the creatures you meet will have its own characteristics and skills.
3 Place:
Galacticraft ( , ) - Have you dreamed of space? Introducing a mod that adds space and, of course, the resulting opportunities. Firstly, you can craft space rockets and use them to colonize other planets. Moreover, each planet has its own gravity, suitability for life and the presence of life (Indicates whether there are other living beings on the planet - mobs). And of course, there are new blocks and crafting.
Minecraft has become the new LEGO for millions of children, teenagers and adult geeks around the world. The opportunity to create your own and explore other people's worlds reveals creativity player and allows you to have a great time with other people. These Minecraft mods will give you or your child even more fun in the game.

With their help, you can increase the drawing distance and detail of the world, as well as adjust animation, improve textures, lighting and other visual effects.
This mod adds many animals and monsters to Minecraft. Among them are wyverns, monitor lizards, jellyfish, scorpions, ogres, mammoths, wild boars and many other creatures. This bestiary will significantly diversify your gaming world. Some creatures can be tamed and used as mounts.
3. Biomes O' Plenty
Biomes O' Plenty expands the list of biomes (game locations). You will be able to see bamboo forests, mangroves, icy wastelands, dry steppes and many other very different natural and climatic zones. With this mod, exploring the generated worlds is much more interesting.
With Just Enough Items you can quickly get almost any information you need for crafting. This mod will always tell you what material is needed to create a particular item. It will also tell you what items the found material will be useful for.
The Twilight Forest adds a whole dimension to the game - a huge forest with new artifacts, creatures and a gloomy atmosphere. In addition, unique game mechanics await you in this location: to progress, you need to go through biomes and fight bosses in a certain order.
After installing JourneyMap in Minecraft appears interactive map, which displays terrain details, creatures, and others in real time. You can use the J key to switch between two viewing modes: a mini-map of the current location in the corner of the display and a full-fledged world map that occupies the entire screen.
BuildCraft adds new mechanics to the game, such as engines, drilling rigs, and workbenches. These devices can be used for resource extraction and crafting. Also in the game there are pipes for transporting liquids, objects and energy.
This Minecraft mod contains dragon ore, which serves as raw material for crafting items. You can get new types of armor, tools and mechanisms. Some items available after installing Draconic Evolution allow you to teleport, control the weather and time.
Inventory Tweaks improve the player's inventory. This Minecraft mod adds a quick item sorting mode and automatically replaces broken tools. That is, you can spend less time on the same type of actions and focus on creativity.
All the best mods you can download for Minecraft.
Right here you will find our selection of the best Minecraft mods. Mods with which you will take everything from Minecaraft, no matter which one you download. They might just improve the lighting or make the frames a little bigger, or they might create entirely new worlds and different ways to play.
But we warn you: not all mods are compatible with latest version Minecraft, and some require installation old version Forge to launch. Luckily, installing older mods isn't difficult. Most mods come with instructions, but if they don't, here's a mini-guide on how to make them work.
Each mod is great in its own way, of course, but it's worth noting that they may conflict with each other if you try to install some of them at the same time. If you're struggling with this or other issues, consider installing ready-made modpacks provided by Feed the Beast and Technic Platform. This is one of the easiest ways to quickly and easily play modified Minecraft.
Millnaire
DownloadHow many times have you been greeted by nothing but emptiness while exploring a new territory? The Millnaire mod fixes this by introducing a lot of new content in a place where there was nothing before. Instead of village swamps, villages populated by men, women and children appear. Even the villages themselves have been remodeled and there is now a Norman, North Indian and 11th century Mayan village.
Fossil and Archeology revival mod
If the only thing you're missing from Minecraft is dinosaurs. Who wouldn't want to give up creepers in favor of tyrannosaurs? A huge number of these creatures can not only be created in Creative mode, the player will be able to hunt for the remains in order to bring forgotten creatures back to life. Besides significant change textures, for those who want to test their prehistoric skills, the boss Anu also appears.
Instant Massive Structures
Okay, okay, this mod might be a bit of a cheat. We've all seen huge structures that make our 5x5 house look like a bucket. But what if you want to change the game? What if you want a huge city in seconds? Then the Instant Structures mod comes into play. Just go to the menu, select a block, right-click on it, and the building will magically appear. You will be able to create a huge number of structures from castles to houses, even to tram stops. Yes, technically it's cheating, but we won't tell anyone.
The Lost Cities
Something ended life as we knew it. The buildings are in disrepair, all have disappeared, or so it only seems so. The Lost Cities, as the name suggests, takes you to forgotten by time city. For what purpose? See how long you can survive in this post-apocalyptic wasteland without succumbing to thoughts of death. But if that's not enough for you, this mod is linked to the Biomes O Plenty mod, which means you'll have plenty of new areas to explore besides empty cities.
Biosphere
Creating a decent sized biosphere takes about 8 hours. I know this because I spent 8 hours painstakingly creating one. In the end, I wanted to throw Minecraft into the mouth of the nearest volcano. Creating something spherical rather than a jagged diamond is not easy. Luckily, the Biosphere mod removes all the annoying obstacles and sends you into a world where the sky is filled with various floating biomes. Just don't fall, right?
The Aether
The Aether (pronounced “ee-ther”) is the opposite of the Nether. While the Nether looks like hell, the Aether is a kind of heavenly realm. After traveling through the portal, you will find yourself above the clouds, surrounded by stunning, newly designed floating islands. There are also new mobs, including flying cows and pigs, some new bosses, and new types of loot blocks.
Optifine
DownloadMinecraft is not very well optimized for fast and slow computers. The game runs surprisingly poorly on low-end laptops, and high-end machines can't make it much more enjoyable. Use Optifine - a mod that not only increases performance, but also makes the game look better. It supports HD textures, smooth lighting and much more, thanks to frequent frame rate doubling. This is one of the first mods I add when installing Minecraft.
Twilight Forest
Do you like adventures? This mod adds a new, densely forested dimension, shrouded in eternal twilight, which hides both valuable treasures and dangerous monsters. Throw a diamond into a pool of water surrounded by flowers to create a portal there, then wait a moment to load. Here you will find hedge mazes, empty hills, enchanted groves, glaciers, the Lich's Castle and much more, as well as rewards for those who venture deeper.
Biomes O'Plenty
Since Update That Changed The World” at the end of 2013, more diversity appeared in the worlds of Minecraft. But Biomes O'Plenty adds even more - 75 to be exact - from bush fields, coral reefs, lavender fields and eerie forests to tundra and wastelands. You will need to create new world to use this mod (make sure to select the Biomes O'Plenty option), but it's worth it to see corners of Minecraft you haven't seen before.
Botania
Some mods add powerful magic items. Others add complex technique. Botania just adds flowers, but not simple ones. Flowers that heal you. Flowers that feed animals. Flowers that direct hostile mobs at each other. Flowers that eat cake. Oh, and did I mention that you can also use flowers to create a magical portal to Elfland? If you want to try something completely different from other mods, Botania is it.
Inventory Tweaks, NotEnoughItems & Waila
This trio of mods will improve your life, especially when you have many mods installed at the same time. Inventory Tweaks will allow you to sort chests with one click and automatically replace tools when they break. NotEnoughItems provides you with a list of all the blocks in the game and recipes for crafting them, while Waila lets you hover over an unknown block to find out what it is.
Thaumcraft
Being a mage is cool, and the best way to become a mage in Minecraft is Thaumcraft. This is a huge mod that allows you to extract magical energy from physical objects in Minecraft and transform it into new forms. In the process, you'll create altars, wands, golems, and fill dozens of jars with colored goo. There is also a puzzle game that you must complete to learn new spells.
Eyephone Mod
Friends can now call you in-game to spoil the latest episode of Game of Thrones. Hooray? Just like a regular phone, the Eyephone is equipped with a set of applications (which can be unlocked using diamonds). The best feature is the ability to send your friends an email to email, to make fun of them, and why not? The only downside is that you have to create a charger in the game to keep your phone running. Just like in real life, right?
A mod that will make creepers even deadlier
Creepers aren't giving you enough trouble? We can fix this. The Chameleon Creepers mod makes it so that creepers, passing by blocks, change color to match their surroundings. In short, this makes creepers even more deadly because you won't see them until they hiss behind you. It is not clear why we would want to use this mod, but for masochists it will come in handy.
"Pursued by Hunters"
Sometimes the simplest mods can breathe life into Minecraft new life. The Medieval Mobs mod does just that, replacing current lineup mobs by bloodthirsty hunters. The Rogue takes the place of the skeleton, while the Bandit and the Savage play the role of the zombie. But be careful, these new mobs act differently than their coded counterparts. They are smarter, faster and do not burn in the sun. But if they're too much for you, there's a configuration file to balance out these fiends.
Ultimate Apocalypse
The world will soon end. In five days, the sun will explode, which means all life: plants, trees, mobs, animals, villagers will burn. And yes, you too. Can you gather enough supplies to go underground and start a new life? Can you survive without the gifts of nature? These are the questions that the Ultimate Apocalypse mod asks. Surviving this harsh, ash-covered landscape will require every trick you've ever learned.
Natura
Another great mod for improving the world is Natura. It adds a huge number of new types of trees, and therefore wood colors, which will make your home more attractive. The mod also adds a few extra crops to produce food and resources early in the game, and also makes the Nether a little more dangerous. Natura is a great first step into Minecraft mods because it's close to the normal game.
JourneyMap
The default maps in Minecraft are complete crap. They don't show any detail, you have to pull them out to view them, and they don't show anything other than where you are. JourneyMap fixes this - the map displays the world in real time as you explore, can be positioned in the corner of the screen, and even allows you to set waypoints that you can return to later. If you have a habit of getting lost in the wilderness, JourneyMap will help you get home safely.
Tinker's Construct
Tools are the foundation of everything you do in Minecraft, and Tinker's Construct allows you to create the best tools from a wide range of materials. They can be improved, modified and repaired if they are broken. Yes, the mod also adds a smelter to create high-quality tools and increase the efficiency of ore processing. If you want the best equipment for the job, download Tinker's Construct.
Forestry
If you like the agricultural aspects of Minecraft, you'll love Forestry. This is a huge mod that adds a bunch of new items, cars and blocks, but is best known for its bees. You can become a beekeeper by capturing wild bees and crossing them, using genetic principles to create various useful resources. If I taught biology, I would use this in the classroom.
ComputerCraft
Since we are studying biology, let's study programming too! ComputerCraft adds programmable computers and robots (turtles) to Minecraft that you can control by writing code. It's all based on the easy-to-learn Lua programming language, and with it you can make password-protected doors, private chats, automated mining robots, and even video games within a game. The possibilities are endless.
Thermal Expansion 4 & Minefactory Reloaded
These titans are some of the most important tech mods in the game. Thermal Expansion focuses on energy production and storage, as well as adding new metals that have become standard components in several other mods. Minefactory Reloaded is where you will use this energy - in automation agriculture, livestock farming, mining industry, magic, potion making and so on. Download both mods and a couple of additional ones here.
Big Reactors
After some time, given the large number of technical mods installed, you will realize that your energy needs are growing faster than the generator capacity allows. Then the Big Reactors mod comes to the rescue. It will allow you to build individually customized nuclear reactors, producing a huge amount of energy that will not disappear if something goes wrong. The mod even interfaces with ComputerCraft so you can create a program to control your reactors. Beginning nuclear scientists can download the mod.
Chisel & Carpenter's Blocks
Making your base look beautiful is a minor task for some players, but for others it is a vital part of the game. These two mods give you the tools you need to customize almost any aspect of your base design. Chisel allows you to load new texture options for most of the most common blocks in the game, while Carpenter's Blocks adds lifts and loads aesthetic options for doors, switches, torches, stairs, fences and more.
RailCraft & Steve's Carts 2
You can probably guess what these mods do. That's right - they both significantly increase the capabilities of minecarts in Minecraft. RailCraft adds a bunch of new rail types, including complex red ore-controlled junctions and signals, while Steve's Carts increases the capabilities of the carts themselves - adding brakes, drills and so on. You can even install an attachment that launches fireworks.
EnderIO
Getting materials where they are needed is an ongoing problem in Minecraft. EnderIO solves this with impressive grace by adding compact conduits that carry liquids, items, energy, and redstone signals. The mod also adds several machines that increase your ore processing abilities. When your base gets more complex, EnderIO is one of the... the best ways deal with it.
Applied Energistics 2
Storage can also become an issue when you start automatically mining more and more resources in Minecraft. Applied Energistics solves this problem by converting the matter in your chests into energy, which is then stored on disks accessible wirelessly from anywhere in your base. You can even use the mod to automatically create what you need by interacting directly with your machines. It doesn't sound magical, but it is. Of course, this requires a huge amount of energy, but after correct settings wooden chests will seem like primitive relics from the past.
JABBA and Iron Chests 2
A couple more storage mods, but this time for the early stages of the game. JABBA adds easy-to-make, upgradeable barrels that can store hundreds of piles of a single item, while Iron Chests lets you upgrade wooden chests to hold more stuff. Ultimately, you may want to use the Applied Energistics system, but these mods will make the early game much more enjoyable.
Extra Utilities & OpenBlocks
This pair of mods is a set of very useful utilities without a specific theme. Extra Utilities adds a golden lasso to transport friendly mobs, blackout curtains to darken areas, conveyor belts to move mobs around, and noise suppressors to make your stables quieter. And OpenBlocks adds sleeping bags, gliders, elevators, tombstones, rope ladders and buildings. Both mods are important.
PneumaticCraft
It's always interesting to see mods that try to change something different from others. PneumaticCraft is a technical mod, but instead of energy it uses air pressure. You'll need to build compression chambers, pipes, and valves to make sure you balance the airflow, because if anything goes wrong, an explosion is inevitable. However, if you do it right, the fancy gadgets that PneumaticCraft brings, such as air cannons and customizable helmets, are worth your time.
Hunger Overhaul, The Spice of Life & Pam's HarvestCraft
Aren't you hungry? After installing Hunger Overhaul you definitely will. The mod makes hunger a challenge rather than a mild irritant, reducing the feeling of hunger depending on the type of food eaten. The Spice of Life will allow you to get less and less bang for your buck each time you eat the same foods. So what can you do to diversify your diet? Of course, install Pam's HarvestCraft. The mod adds 58 new crops, 35 fruit trees, 12 bushes and 16 types of fish, including, to the delight of vegetarians, the ability to use tofu instead of fish for any recipe. It's a culinary blast and your mouth will thank you.
BiblioCraft
BiblioCraft originally started out as a way to store books in cabinets, but has since grown greatly into a pile of blocks and items that are equally useful and aesthetically pleasing for your base. There are displays for weapons, shelves with potions, cookie jars, clocks, lanterns, display cases, elegant multi-piece chairs, even tables and tablecloths. Once you use BiblioCraft, your base will look like home.
Project Red
Those of you who frequently work with red stone know how much pain it can sometimes cause. Project Red changes that, allowing you to have much greater control over what you're doing and a much more comfortable design experience. The mod also adds integrated logic gates that simplify optimization tasks. Worth installing if you ever want to work with redstone.
Steve's Factory Manager
Another incredibly useful automation tool is Steve's Factory Manager. Just like ComputerCraft, the mod is not very convenient and requires knowledge of basic programming to start working with it. However, once you have a drag-and-drop interface, you will be amazed at the possibilities. There is no better solution for factory automation.
Mystcraft
Are you tired of your world, but don't want to lose progress? Create a new dimension with Mystcraft. The mod will allow you to create “Linking Books”, with which you can travel through the multiverse - the content of the book will determine which world you open. You can discover snow-covered floating islands or an endless ocean with giant trees sprouting from the water. But be careful, some of the new dimensions may be extremely unstable and fall apart. Download Mystcraft to explore - I hope you come back from there.

Let's take a closer look at the usefulness of the Doggy Talents mod for version 1.10.2. It is dedicated to play dogs, the variety of which has increased in Minecraft.
The word "mod" itself is short for the more cumbersome "modification". There are mods from official developers and so-called amateur mods. However, the term “amateur” in in this case in no way means low quality. Often it is amateur mods that subsequently move forward a seemingly initially failed game project, or even become no less famous than their “parents”. For example, the well-known Dota is “just” a mod for game World Of Warcraft.
Mods give a second life to many projects and significantly expand and complement the player’s capabilities. Therefore, it is not surprising that many are also looking for how download Minecraft mods.
Minecraft was no exception. After all, today this is perhaps one of the most long-running and famous gaming projects in the whole world. Who would have thought that a simple, at first glance, simulator of a resource miner from the category of casual toys would later develop into such a large-scale phenomenon...
And Minecraft mods themselves are gaining popularity. Here is just a small list of mods and addons that are available for different versions Minecraft:
- Desno Guns - this mod introduces all kinds of modern weapons into the world of Minecraft. However, it does not become available immediately, but only after mining a certain type of craft. There are more than fifty types of weapons - sniper rifles, guarantors, machine guns...;
- Portal. As you can guess from the name itself, the mod introduces elements from the famous game Portal. Using a teleportation gun, you can create an entrance and exit and, accordingly, move to a given point;
- Shoulder Surfing - the mod adds a third-person view (by pressing the F5 key). You can clearly observe the movements of your game character and change the position of the camera;
- World Handler. The mod adds the ability to control the world around you. For example, change the weather, time of day, play all kinds of sounds, change the difficulty of the game and much more;
- Industrial Craft - adds all kinds of industrial structures to the world of Minecraft. And Industrial Craft 2 are electric;
- Lycanite's Mobs. Surely this mod will appeal to all fans of such a wonderful toy as Doom. After all, with its help you can populate the world of Minecraft with monsters from Doom! However, some other new types of monsters will also appear;
- Flowercraft. Minecraft worlds are replenished with a whole biome in which a huge number of flowers grow. Existing flowers are also replaced by new species.
Some mods that were written for some Minecraft versions, may not work correctly or not work at all on other builds of the game. Therefore, before downloading this or that mod, you need to inquire about the installed version of Minecraft and the version for which the mod was created. Likewise, mods for mobile versions of Minecraft are incompatible with PC and console versions.
