Dave & Dave's Wild Ride

Have you ever wanted to have fun with your pals, but all these dang modpacks are just too big for their old computers? Well look no further! Dave and Dave's Wild Ride gives you just the essentials to have a blast without worrying about too much fun in your trunk.

Not only that, but this pack has been handcrafted (heh, crafted) to ensure that your good times won't be ruined by "end game" content appearing in the first 2 hours that ruins everyone else's day.

Here are some quotes from our satisfied customers:

"Dude" - Dave D.

"C'mon, Steve's Carts is my one mod" - Dave T.

"As long as it has bees I'm good" - John W.

"Wait how come none of my mods are in this?" - Mike B.

Basically, I just put some stuff together but without mods that are intended to be an "end game reward" that often can be gotten within the first day, and then other mods get ignored because they're too easy with the god items. So, you can still enjoy the experiences of exploring different dimensions, playing with magic, and getting some tech fun (though not as much as many packs since they tend to discourage creative automation solutions). I also tried to keep the list small for people with less RAM.

Some of the core mods in this pack and brief descriptions:

Botania: Playing with flowers to get cool automation

Astral Sorcery: Playing with stars to get cool items

Thaumcraft: Playing with a cauldron and accidentally unleashing tainted magic in your base

Twilight Forest: A dark dimension to explore but it's pretty cute

The Betweenlands: A dark dimension to explore but it's pretty terrifying

Immersive Engineering: Tech but you have to find room for the machines

Forestry: Tech but really you spend days figuring out how to take care of bees

Applied Energistics 2: Tech but it just lets you skip spending an hour looking through your chests

Custom NPCs: Let's you spawn in NPCs to act as shopkeepers and quest givers

WorldEdit: Let's you do large scale building to save time as server admin
