Description

chqTrhk.png

New Beginnings is a 1.16.4 modpack that is perfect for people that want to experience mods without getting too complicated.

The focus in creating this modpack was not taking the simplicity of the vanilla game away from the user, whilst giving more reason to explore and craft than usual.

With new biomes, weapons, technology and more, this modpack is perfect for people looking for a vanilla modded experience.

After the success of my first modpack I decide to create a sequel after many requests.

So if you think this modpack is for you be sure to give it a go and modify where needed.
