Traverse: HexTek
Magic-meets-machinery modpack for NeoForge 1.21.1.
Overview
Traverse: HexTek is a ground-up fusion of Hexxit and Tekkit, rebuilt for NeoForge 1.21.1. It's not a straight port — it's a curated 359-mod pack built on the idea that Hexxit's adventure-and-magic identity and Tekkit's industrial-automation identity complement each other far better than either pack alone ever showed. The pack is currently in active alpha development — expect breaking changes, mod additions/removals, and rebalancing between releases.
Lineage
Hexxit heritage: The Twilight Forest, The Aether, Hexxit Gear R, Reliquary, Soul Shards, Infernal Mobs, Chococraft, Extra Bows, and Dimensional Doors carry forward the original adventure-and-exploration identity almost unchanged. The dungeon-hunting backbone — YUNG's Suite, Moog's Suite, Dungeon Crawl, When Dungeons Arise, New Classic Battle Towers — is a direct spiritual descendant of Hexxit's structure-heavy world generation. Tekkit heritage: Project Red is the modern successor to RedPower, ProjectE continues the Equivalent Exchange 2 lineage, and Railcraft Reborn keeps the original rail obsession alive. Balkon's WeaponMod: Legacy — a genuine Tekkit-era mod — is also present. A full modern tech stack (Applied Energistics 2, Mekanism, Create, Immersive Engineering, Draconic Evolution, Powah) builds on top of that foundation.
