Amir's Create Hordes

A performance-minded Vanilla+ pack for Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge 21.1.238). It keeps the feel of survival Minecraft, adds Create for automation, and sends zombie hordes at you, with guns and turrets to hold them off.

What you get

Automation. Create adds kinetic machines, gearing, and contraptions. Its Ponder tutorials show how each machine works.

Zombie hordes. The Hordes sends waves of zombies after you on horde nights. Zombies Break & Build lets zombies break the blocks in their way, so walls alone won’t save you.

Guns and turrets. TaCZ adds guns. TACZ Turrets lets you give a turret a gun and ammo to defend your base.

Quality of life

• Whole trees fall. Chop one log with an axe and the tree comes down (FallingTree).
• Vein mining. Hold the vein-mine key to mine ore veins (Veinminer).
• Auto tool swap. A broken tool is replaced by another from your inventory (Auto Swap).
• Replanting. Breaking a crop with a hoe replants it (Replanting Crops).
• Hunger info. Food and saturation values show on the hunger bar (AppleSkin).
• Dynamic light. Hold a torch and it lights up around you (LambDynamicLights).
• Recipes. JEI shows recipes and uses. Search @create to find Create items.

Performance and visuals

• Sodium, Iris, Reese’s Sodium Options, Entity Culling, ModernFix, FerriteCore, and Lithium.
• Photon shaders come bundled and selected by default. They’re heavier than lighter packs, so lower the shader settings if your frame rate drops.

Good to know

• Java 21 and NeoForge 21.1.238 are required. The CurseForge app installs the right loader for you.
• Guns may need gun packs. If no guns show up in the creative menu, add a TaCZ gun pack in the tacz folder.
• Multiplayer: all players need the same pack version. Client-only mods such as Sodium, Iris, and the shader pack aren’t needed on a server.
• This pack is lightly tested. Please report crashes with the crash log.
