What is Better With Everything

Better With Everything (BWE) is a fork of Better With Mods (BWM) that fixes the broken guidebook that was dependent on an external repository (no longer online); it also includes the totality of Better With Addons (BWA). Finally, it has a few features that were left out of BWA:

-Fixed "boss" potion effect

-Fixed Greatbow not affected by infinity

-Fixed lure tree Craft Tweaker methods

-Improved Greatbow configuration (damage, damage to dragons, lightning color, etc)

-Added Napalm Greatarrows

-Added Configuration to change the color of ancestral spirits

-Added HC beacon Craft Tweaker support

For now, only the file name will change, with the IDs of both mods contained within still the same to remain fully compatible with existing modpacks if they choose to switch to this fork.

Plans for the future include possibly finishing some missing features and remaking some textures. The release version, except for BWA's additional features and the lack of guidebook is virtually identical to the previous two versions of the BWM and BWA

What is Better With Mods?

Better With Mods(BWM) is a mod based around extending and enhancing vanilla Minecraft. BWM focuses on improving the core aspects of Minecraft through its three core modules. First is the Gameplay module which directly extends the gameplay of Minecraft through additional blocks, items, foods, and more. Next is the Tweak module which adds small quality of life and balance changes. Finally is the Hardcore module which directly changes the core balance of Minecraft. Together these three modules massively overhaul the vanilla experience.

BetterWithMods is largely inspired by BetterThanWolves by FlowerChild. While the core ideas may be the same, many things are different between the two mods.

Configuration

With the same philosophy found in mods such as Quark, Better With Mods is extremely configurable. Every recipe, tweak, hardcore mechanic, etc. is configurable. Better With Mods puts the control over gameplay in you, the player's hands, instead of being forced into a specific playstyle.

Both the Tweak and Hardcore modules can be enabled or disabled through the config while the Gameplay module is configurable through Modtweaker compatibility.

Module: Gameplay

The gameplay module is the base module of BWM. It provides all the core blocks, items, and foods used

throughout the mod. For a brief overview of the content included watch the following series by Mischief of Mice:

Module: Tweaks

The tweak module is based around improving the quality of life and gameplay of Minecraft through a variety of small changes.

A sample of a few tweaks:

Mobs always dropping equipment
Mobs dropping heads
Animals Fleeing
Renewable Endstone
Creeper Sheering
...And More!

Module: Hardcore

The hardcore module is focused on rebalancing the base Minecraft experience to be more challenging and thought-provoking. This is through expanding gameplay decisions instead of the microcrafting that you would find in other mods. Many of these features encourage automation and utilizing vanilla tools, such as water streams, to progress.

A sample of a few hardcore changes:

HCBuckets - Buckets can not place down source blocks
HCHunger (Requires Applecore) - Replaces saturation with fat that will cause negative effects if too much is gained
HCMovement - Different materials slow or speed up the player's movement
HCBeacons - Override the beacon system to encourage multiple beacons
HCSpawn - The player will spawn within a couple thousand blocks of world spawn
HCStrata (Best with CTM)- Divide the world into 3 stone layers
...And More!
