Homestead is a cozy homesteading survival modpack for Minecraft Java, built on Fabric for version 1.20.1. It hands players a hand-crafted world full of quests, farming, and building projects instead of tech trees or combat grinding, with built-in shaders so the relaxed pace still looks cinematic out of the box.
What's included in Homestead
- Fabric loader for Minecraft 1.20.1
- A guided but open quest line through a hand-crafted world
- Expanded farming, cooking, and homesteading mechanics
- New wildlife and creatures to raise and interact with
- Shaders bundled and preconfigured, switchable from potato-friendly to cinematic presets
- A custom world creation screen with additional generation options
How to install Homestead
- 1.Set up a Fabric-compatible Minecraft client, such as the Modrinth App.
- 2.Open the Homestead page on Modrinth and download the modpack through the Modrinth App, or import the .mrpack file into your preferred Fabric-compatible client.
- 3.On first launch, Homestead shows a setup screen in place of the FTB app screen (FTB packs cannot be distributed directly through Modrinth); follow its on-screen steps to finish setup.
- 4.Use the custom Create World screen to start a new world, then follow the in-game quest line to get oriented.
Multiplayer and server support
Homestead requires the modpack on both the client and the server, so every player in a world needs the same Fabric mod set installed. The pack is built with shared, cooperative worlds in mind: farming, building, and questing all carry over cleanly to a dedicated server as long as the server runs the matching Homestead version.
