With his newfound popularity, KakerMix assembled a team to create the Technic Launcher and further modpacks. It only had a few downloads until it was reviewed by a member of The Yogscast where it was brought to the forefront of their fans. Technic originated as a small modpack named Technic released in Beta 1.7 by KakerMix on Something Awful. However, the Technic modpacks and launcher still have a cult following within its own community, and Technic still has a large legacy, paving the way for future modpacks and modpack distribution platforms.

As such, Technic is no longer a large part of the modded community. Īlthough Technic was once hegemonic in the modded community, the Technic Team has not released one of their own modpacks in years, nor have they modified their launcher beyond basic maintenance. The Technic Launcher was created to automatically install of the Technic modpacks, including over 10,000 third-party modpacks. It only had a few downloads until it was reviewed by a member of The Yogscast, where it was placed into the spotlight of their many fans. Technic was originally created as a small, personal modpack by KakerMix on a website named Something Awful. Technic is a launcher, community and large group of modpacks created by the Technic Team. For the original modpack, see Technic SSP.

This page is about the launcher and group of modpacks.
