Description
This Modpack aims to transform Minecraft into a zombie apocalypse, but in a Vanilla way.
It is a lightweight modpack (less than 50 mods + ressourcepacks).

OPTIFINE
You will need OptiFine to have most of the texture work. You can install it manually from here.
If you don't want to use Optifine and if some textures don't work, try to remove the Fresh Animations and Tissou's Zombie Pack Ressourcepacks
SETUP
1. Set the Ressourcepacks in this order :

2. Activate the shader (once you installed optifine)
3. If you have performance issues, set shader's shadow quality to 0.6 or lower, and in the Shader Options set profile to Low.
And remove BetterTables, FreshAnimations and BetterVanillaAnimals.

MAJOR MODIFICATIONS
- Less types of mob, more and harder zombies
- Guns
Revive mechanic (If you die, a friend can revive you, useful for hardcore)- New health system
- New structures and Lost Cities
- New food system
- Undeads do not burn with the sun
- Modified loots to still get all you need to have to do (almost...) all the Minecraft achievements
- World map (not minimap)
- Seasons
- Harder difficulty with days
- Better underground structures
OTHER MODIFICATIONS

GOAL(s)
There is four interesting things, and surely more, you can do with this modpack :

- Achieve all the advancements in Minecraft, few of them are impossible to do, and can be granted after killing the ender dragon with /ICantFinishTheGame
- In multiplayer, try to survive together and do the first goals
- In multiplayer, make factions, survive and fight against the others

MANUAL INSTALLATION
FORGE
You need at least the 40.1.0 version. You can install it manually from here.
OPTIFINE

If you don't want to use Optifine and if some textures don't work, try to remove the Fresh Animations and Tissou's Zombie Pack Ressourcepacks
For later
- Adventure book that explains the modpack's basics
- More little structures
- A pre generated map to start with a "recommanded world"
- A nether similar to the overworld to make it like a "parallel dimension"
- Maybe the Grappling Hook Mod but with some huge balancing (if possible...)
