CrariCraft - LightVanilla+
This modpack aims to be Vanilla friendly. It was made with the goal to add new small mechanics with modifying those already existing in the game to a minimum. It adds such things as mobs, items, functionnal block, decorative blocks, customization, new goals and finally, qol and ui improvements. The content added is not "there to be here", everything has a use and doesn't break the vanilla feeling. Certain items or tweaks from mods are disabled to prevent too op strategy : usual vanilla farms, strategies and mechanics are not obselete.
PS : I made this modpack with my definition of "Vanilla+", maybe you'll not agree with my choices but I'll keep following my definition with this modpack.
What does this modpack does not include :
Industrial mods with energy, tons of new dimension, new biomes, op tools, op armors, gamebreaking mechanics, textures/sounds that doesn't fit well in minecraft vanilla,
What does this modpack has to offer :
This modpack adds an extension of netherite armor, new items to collect and new goals to complete to encourage players to explore the world.You will be able to collect cool cards and amazing artifacts. It also adds lot of new mobs, tamable, breedable and dangerous ! With those new entities and the ambient sounds the world will not feel empty anymore. All the expert decorators or redstoners will be pleased : there is a lot of new blocks, decorative and functional ! All these fit perfectly in the minecraft world and don't break the vanilla feeling. Last but not least there is also a lot of UI improvements and qol tweaks.
In short, if you want to play minecraft without being overhelmed by a tons of new features but still having fresh content to have an enhanced experience this modpack is for you.
