Description
Ultimate PBR Essentials
Ultimate PBR Essentials is the modpack for players who want to experience Minecraft with unparalleled visual enhancements while retaining the classic functionality they love. This modpack adds support for POM & PBR texturepack which previously used Optifine's features.
Who Is It For?
If you're looking to play with nearly any newer texture pack, whether it be realistic, vanilla, or one with minor tweaks, most require specific features and mods to provide these features. This modpack allows you to play with them effortlessly and also includes performance enhancements.
Isn't this just another Fabulously Optimized?
While the majority of mods are indeed common, however it does not mainly include visually game-altering mods, which are required/best suited for some PBR texture packs.

This modpack has libraries that are required by some of the mods mentioned above, and other mods. Some mods may have been added later and may not be mentioned in the list above however they will be suited for the modpack.
Please note that this Modpack is not perfect, and was originally created to make the installation of mods for Optimum Realism texturepack easier and more uniform, however it should cover the mods required for almost all other texture packs that previously used Optifine's feature and are currently in the loop with newer mods. If you have suggestions, please refer to the discord server. This modpack also includes additional files that are not on Modrinth, these files cannot be redistributed or modified.
