Future plans and misc

Ram: We recommend you allocated 3-4GB minimum

Optifine: Works but is not supported. Optifine is known to screw up other mods. I have however been using it for the past week or so and have experienced no issues.

Future Plans:

  • More structures & dungeons are planned once more mods support 1.16.
  • Mods that add more block variety.
  • Game balance will be continuous.
  • Tutorial books using Patchouli.
  • Quests.

 

 

We recommend using the datapack Expanded Advancement and Recipe Pack. This datapack adds tons of new advancements to claim as you play.
