Description

*This description is still being worked on, everything you see here is subject to change.

A Survival Modpack with features such as temperature, thirst, body health, and more.

Made for lower-end devices that don't have more than 8GB of memory.

Use the Essential Mod to play with your friends easier.

All mods used in this modpack belong to their owners. If you wish for me to remove a mod, please let me know.

A brief tutorial is shown below, if you want to skip it, go ahead, the in-game advancements can teach you.

Getting Started

Once you spawn in, grab some sticks from trees or on the ground and flint from gravel along the shore or elsewhere.

With flint in your hand, right click a hard surface like stone to break it into Flint Shards - you're not guaranteed them first try, so you'll need multiple.

With flint shards and a stick, craft a Flint Knife.

Once you do that, you can harvest Plant Fiber from grass or cobwebs from trees.
After gathering 3 plant fiber, you can turn them into Plant String. Gathering string from cobwebs on trees is the easier alternative.

String is essential for early game flint tools.

With your string, you can craft an axe so you can finally begin chopping wood.

You'll quickly notice that wood and stone tools are removed from the normal recipes.
Don't worry, flint tools can mine the same blocks wood and stone ones can, so you can mine iron with a flint pickaxe.

Crafting planks is a bit different in this, you can't place wood in your crafting grid to make planks. You need a tool like an axe or a saw. Using a saw is more effective than using an axe, and can cut more wood types.

You may not be able to craft planks using an axe in the crafting grid with every possible log, check the recipes for more information.
All recipes can be viewed using the Just Enough Items (JEI) mod. Press U to see an item's uses in a crafting recipe or press R to view how you can craft the item you want.

You can't craft campfires normally in the crafting table. You'll need to craft a Fire Starter.

To make a campfire, drop at least one log and 3 sticks, then hold right click with the fire starter until a campfire appears.

Campfires are great for staying warm in colder biomes early on or cooking food.

One more thing you should note:
Blocks that aren't broken with the right tool may not drop. If you find crops in the wild, it's best to dig the block underneath them for it to drop.

Player

You'll notice a change with your UI where your hotbar is.

Along with Health and Hunger, you can see that you now have a Thirst meter and a Temperature meter. Off to the right you can see your limb health. They'll take damage depending on where you were hurt.

To access the player limbs menu, the default key is H.

This shows your health in each part of your body. Your main health bar is not connected to this.
When a limb's health is too low or broken, you'll suffer from various debuffs. Heal your damaged limbs by sleeping or using certain items.

You will also need to keep track of your diet.
Eat different foods to keep each bar between the green lines.
Press N to open your Nutrients menu.

As stated before, all the mods in this modpack are owned by their creators, none of which are owned by me. If you wish for something to be taken down, please contact me.
