This modpack includes performance mods, shaders and quality of life mods while keeping the vanilla feel and vanilla friendly mods for versions under 26.2.

For version 26.2 and above it will include less vanilla friendly mods. This is because keeping the modpack vanilla friendly makes adding mods limited. If you want a vanilla friendly modpack for newer versions there is an upcoming modpack, Better Vanilla 456.
