Description

A basic collection of mods centered on creating a magic-themed world full of magical spells, new creatures, and magical machinery using Ars Nouveau as the core experience.  This pak is designed to showcase the Ars Nouveau mod, and contains the base mod plus most of the currently recognized addons, as well as a selection of mods that are related to Ars Nouveau via bridging mods.  This pack also contains a handful of basic quality of life mods to streamline the player experience.

As the intent behind this pack is simply to gather all of the Ars addons and Ars adjacent mods into a single pack that gives the full "Ars experience", this modpack does not offer anything like guided quest lines. It provides a fully playable Ars-centric "backbone" world to which players and devs can add additional content to if they so desire. 

If you are a modpack developer looking to make an Ars-centric pack, feel free to use this as the starting point and tinker with it, adjust settings, add mods and quests, etc.  That's part of what this is here for.

This modpack is offered "as-is", and does not have any official support.  It has been tested to make sure that everything loads properly without errors, but has not undergone rigorous testing.

 

As development for Ars Nouveau has moved fully to 1.21.1, there will likely be no further updates to the 1.20.1 version of Ars Eclectica.  Only the 1.21.1 version will continue to be updated going forward.
