Description
This modpack aims to push Minecraft beyond Vanilla+, still providing a vanilla style experience, but with a realistic, incredibly detailed world to explore along the way. Call it Vanilla++!
I've included the legendary Patrix resource pack, which adds an incredibly natural look and feel to Minecraft, with fluffy leaves and realistic animal models.
I've also included No Cubes Reloaded, which smooths out Minecraft's terrain. It feels like playing an entirely different game! Especially with Round Trees and my Round Cacti add-on.
Finally, I added Terralith and Tectonic, probably the most popular biome and worldgen combination out there, and for good reason. They work incredibly well together, and combined with Patrix and No Cubes, Minecraft has never felt more like exploring a real world!
To go along with those, I added Amplified Nether and Nullscape, to bring that same epic feeling to the Nether and the End.
This modpack uses my Tweaks modpack as a base. That pack offers a well-optimized Vanilla+ experience. Go there for more details, everything said there applies to this pack as well. I've also developed this pack further into my Survival Horror modpack! Check it out, I've put a LOT of work into making it a unique experience!
Getting the most out of this modpack:
Minecraft Setup:
Make sure you have Java set up properly for Minecraft in the CurseForge launcher. Give it as much RAM as you can spare, and under additional arguments, you should have:
-Xms16G -Xmx16G -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseZGC -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem -XX:-ZUncommit -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled
Recommended:
I highly recommend going here to download the Patrix Add-On, and here to download the Patrix Models. (DO NOT use the install button, download the files and place them in the folder. Installing will override the Patrix basic pack and your game textures will be broken.) Place both of these in the resourcepack folder before you start up the pack for the first time, and they should even be auto-loaded.
You should also go to the Haubna Patreon page for Physics Mod Pro. Unfortunately, the Hysteria shader isn't compatible with Water Physics, so I've disabled that. Drop the mod into your mods folder, and make sure to remove the other physics mod file!
Extras:
For extra realism, try setting your character's height to match your real-world height!
Use "/attribute @s generic.scale base set " followed by a scaling value that is your Height in Meters divided by two. I'm 5'8", so my scaling value was ~0.8785.

List of non-CurseForge mods included in this modpack that aren't mentioned above (please go support these creators!):
Disable Portal Checks
Immersive Thunder
Lithium Fabric API
Thread Tweak
Future Updates:
- This modpack is mostly finished at this point. I'll keep maintaining it, but now the real work is going on over at Phase 3 - BottomlessThought's Survival.
Project State:
Likely Unsolvable Issues:
- Some trees spawned by Terralith use Wood instead of Logs, meaning that Round Trees will not make them round.
