Homebrew to Ferny's Progression Modpack

Watch out, if you don't like suggestive/erotic content, there is some in the collection! If you are coming here from the pure Progression pack, keep in mind you absolutely have to make a new save when adding all of these mods.


Message board:

23.05.2026: It seems like Hussars and Pigskins and probably other races don't have faces. Weird but pretty minor to me, if someone finds out why that happens that would be welcome <3 THANK YOU Lucius! (Guy who makes lovely patches for xenotypes!) I had to enable the xenotype face appearance in the Face Animations XML settings in Mod Options! Now Everything works!


Breakage and technicalities: When something breaks after adding new mods validate the files and/or remove config file. I'm removing mods added to Progression modpack from my collection. Don't mind the start errors too much... Most of the time everything works, sometimes the map may break. Honestly it all happened around when I added Kraltech LOL. Before that timeframe I guarantee safety most of the time. If you for some ungodly reason are using the entire collection like me and something breaks so much the game becomes unplayable please tell me, the comments should be open. Don't forget to provide a link to your Hugs Lib Log (if it didn't time-out at least...). I have no programming knowledge so that would lead to me removing mods from collection. Remember to always put new mods under official DLCs in mod order and then auto-sort.
The description: This collection turns the game into power fantasy because I LIKE IT that way! Also, absolute chaos, absolute drama, no one will be safe.

The list of the mods I have removed from Progression is at the bottom of the list. It's called "Mods I (don't) HATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


Mods I removed from this list itself: Eternal Pawns - Never really bothered with it Dubs Skylights Addon - Uses glass pane instead of glass which is impossible to get with progression modpack Mark of Manhood - There's an alternative in the Progression pack now Show me Your Hands - Literally played without this mod for the majority of time and only noticed that you need to turn on all of its functions in config. Why even bother lol Craftable Mechlinks - Progression: Robotics exists now Eyegenes 2 - Swapped for Eyegenes 3 Spawn those genes! - Not needed for Eyegenes 3 Eyegenes2 Xenotype Patch Show Hair Under Stuff - Replaced with the modmixer one in the pack Alpha Vehicles - Age of Sail - Kinda out of place in the pack without research and all that idk ISEKAI RPG LEVELING - just kinda too much work with it ISEKAI Retexture GUILD FACTION ADD-ON - Isekai RPG Leveling
