Ultimately Optimized - Vanilla but Better!
Modpack[26.2 + April Fools (26w14a)] My dreamed version of a Vanilla instance. This modpack fulfils all your needs from Vanilla and immerses you in it!
Description
⚡️ READ BEFORE DOWNLOADING
Most versions of this modpack come with 2 versions for releases: Classic and Fairplay
Classic:
Offers the complete and modpack's default experience but includes some mods that some people might consider cheating or make you banned/kicked from public servers. - Usually includes these key mods:
A portion of the list of those mods
- Better Third Person
- GammaUtils
- Axiom
- Freecam
- InvMove
- Bridging Mod
- Accurate Block Placement Reborn
- Xaero's Minimap
- Xaero's World Map
- Bactromod (Only on older versions of the modpack - Replaces some mods above.) And many more...
The difference between Classic and Fairplay versions varies for each version of this modpack.
Classic versions don't have a suffix at the end of their version names. - Example of a classic version to download: 26.2+0.3.0
Fairplay:
Offers a safe option to play on public servers. Still having most of QoL features and all of the optimization mods.
Fairplay version names end with "-fair". - Example of a Fairplay version to download: 26.2+0.3.0-fair
❗ DISCLAIMAR FOR VERSIONS BELOW 26.1
Known mods in the modpack that might slighly alter vanilla behavior:
This modpack is intended not to modify the server-side part of the game (like no new blocks etc). But some optimization patches might have parity differences with Vanilla in singleplayer worlds.
Examples:
Noisium mod generates features a little bit different compared to Vanilla. It's noticeable when comparing the tree locations.
Ksyxis mod removes spawn chunks to speed up game loading and improve perfomance. - Won't exist in 1.21.9+ because Minecraft did this!
Server Core mod on some versions of this modpack, might modify entity spawning within chunk borders and few other tiny, non-noticable changes. (It doesn't exist in newer versions, even a bit below 26.1.)
(1.16.1 version is perfectly on par with Vanilla as it's a speedrun-special version.)
You can remove the mods above to achieve perfect parity with Vanilla.
❗ About
❓ Why Ultimately Optimized?
The main reason to choose this modpack is the QoL (Quality of Life) mods/resourcepacks. Remember this isn't a vanilla+ modpack, because it doesn't change any of Vanilla Minecraft's mechanics. So you can enjoy an optimized version of Minecraft with all your wished features in a server with your friends or singleplayer world. Also, public servers that have too many players in them will not lag your PC.
This modpack is available for 3 recent April Fools snapshots and some older vanilla Minecraft versions , too. (Check Version Support part for more info.) These versions tend to get less updates from me.
💯 Note that although this modpack includes many QoL features, 1.16.1 version of this modpack only includes speedrun-only mods and thus, it's safe for submission to speedrun.com.
🧑💻 This modpack is just in Modrinth and won't be ported to Curseforge.
🙏 Please report any bugs you might find or any suggestions you might have to our Discord server.
