About the modpack

What is FTB Academy?

FTB Academy is the original Feed the Beast learning modpack for Minecraft 1.12, made to teach modded Minecraft. Instead of throwing hundreds of mods at you at once, it walks you through tech, magic and automation mods with guided lessons and quests, so you learn what each mod does before you build with it. That makes it an ideal first modpack for newcomers, families and classes. With FTB Academy server hosting, your whole group shares one world that stays online even when you log off.

On your own server, FTB Academy comes preinstalled with your order and you set the pace: invite as many friends or classmates as you like, tweak configs or add extra mods through full file access, and upload an existing world to keep your progress. Pick the location closest to your players from our locations worldwide.
