Description

Welcome To Bounds & Let your Adventure Begin!

 

    Bounds is a 1.12.2 Vanilla+ Hardcore Modpack. This pack is centered around progressing through Better With Mods. You start off in a world with nothing and are faced with tougher than normal mobs and world generation that pushes you to explore and find new structures to loot. You will need to work for the tools that you would normally take for granted because basic tools will not mine the deeper layers of the earth. If you can survive you will prosper and have the world at your fingertips.

 

 

This pack has been tested and is fully compatible with multiplayer.

 

Note: For those on weaker or older computers disable Blur and Better Foliage
