NOTE: I am sorry for the title screen.

A mix of technology, food and survival mechanics.

For those who feel that regular modpacks tend to get too easy but do not want to go too hardcore on survival, this mod is for you!

Minimum 4GB of RAM to run. For a smoother experience, use 5GB.

Install Optifine and Shaders for a vastly better experience:

Download the latest Optifine Version for 1.12.2 here: https://optifine.net/downloads
Move Optifine's jar file into your modpack's "mods" folder.

Shaders:
Chocopic is a shader that aims to achieve high visual quality while maintaining good performance.
Recommended Shader: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/customization/chocapic13-shaders
After installing zip files, create a folder named "shaderpacks" in your modpack root directory. ("shaderpacks" should be in the same place as your "mods" folder.)
Open the zip file you installed and copy all 5 zip files into the shaderpacks folder. (Eg. "Chocapic13_V9_Extreme.zip" and "Chocapic13_V9_High.zip")

FPS BOOSTING TIPS(with Shaders):

Decrease render distance by 1 or 2, this affects performance the most.
