Bells and Whistles
I couldn't find a client-side only modpack that comes out-of-the-box all the fancy quality-of-life mods that I like having. Because I always add my own list of mods, I have to update my mods manually every time there's an update, and I hate that.
So I decided to upload my modpack to Modrinth so if others are in the same boat as me and have a similar taste in QoL mods, they can download this instead of manually picking all the mods.
It also doesn't burn my house down when running on my crappy 16GB ram laptop so it should run alright on yours hopefully
Works on vanilla servers, doesn't change gameplay
- Lots of performance mods!
- Simple Voice Chat (with a soundboard!)
- ChatNotify so that you notice when you're mentioned even if you're not paying attention to the chat
- Axiom, Litematica and other building tools
- e4mc to play with friends without a server
- Has Xaeros Minimap and Worldmap
- No Chat Reports (Allows reports by default as I had issues with it connecting to a server I play on) and No Chat Restrictions
- Minor visual tweaks (such as 3D Skin Layers)
...and some more stuff!
How to use the various thingies
This isn't an exhaustive list of everything the modpack does, but it's the main stuff
Calculator
Do /calc <maths stuff here>. You can also calculate crafting materials like /calc craft white_concrete 5 sb -> crafting 5 shulker boxes of white concrete and /calc nether ~ ~ ~ to find the nether equivalent to your current overworld coordinates, and a bunch of other stuff
ChatNotify
Edit the config for this mod (in mod settings) and set it to make a ping noise and highlight when your username or nickname or whatever other key words you want is said in chat.
e4mc
Makes it so people outside of your wifi network can join your 'LAN' worlds by creating a temporary address for them to connect to. Super useful to play with friends without paying for a server. By default, has whitelist enabled. Use /whitelist add <friends username> to let your friends join your world. (Disabling whitelist risks random people joining, and using hacks/exploits to destroy everything. Always make a backup before disabling whitelist.)
