Actually A New Frontier

A custom BetterMC sandbox focusing on Create: Aeronautics integration and a revamped End using Nullscape & Unusual End.

Welcome to 'Actually A New Frontier'!

 

This modpack takes the beloved BetterMC experience and pushes it beyond its standard boundaries. Built on the solid foundation of BetterMC for Minecraft 1.21.1, we have carefully tweaked, uncapped, and expanded the pack to create the ultimate sandbox for engineers and explorers. 

 

Main Features Offered by the Project:

The BetterMC 1.21.1 Foundation (Uncapped): We started with the fantastic BetterMC base but removed several limitations, tweaking configs to give players more freedom and a smoother overall experience.

Create: Aeronautics Integration:** This is the crown jewel of the pack. We successfully integrated and stabilized *Create: Aeronautics* alongside the massive BetterMC modlist. 

A Completely Overhauled End Dimension:** The End is no longer just a barren island. By combining *Nullscape* and *Unusual End*, the dimension has been transformed into a breathtaking, alien landscape filled with towering structures and new biomes.

Bespoke Custom Tweaks:** We implemented numerous smaller and larger adjustments under the hood to ensure all these mods interact perfectly, balancing the progression and optimizing performance for our SMP and your singleplayer worlds.

 

How these features affect a user's experience:

Players will experience a completely new sense of scale and verticality. Instead of just walking or riding horses through BetterMC's beautiful biomes, you can now engineer and pilot massive, physics-based airships using Create to explore the world from the skies. Furthermore, the progression doesn't just stop after the Ender Dragon. The combination of Nullscape and Unusual End turns the endgame into a massive, awe-inspiring exploration journey, offering new challenges and breathtaking visuals that will keep you engaged for hours. 

 

Why should you download this project?

If you love the RPG and exploration aspects of BetterMC, but always wanted the deep engineering of Create (specifically flying machines!) and a vastly superior End dimension, 'Actually A New Frontier' is exactly what you are looking for. It bridges the gap between exploration and advanced contraptions!

I mostly build mods to fix problems I run into myself. I share them here in case they help your modpacks and servers too. (we don't talk about SeedRay).
