Natural+ VR Edition
- By
Experience the beauty of Natural+ Plus, ready and primed for use with Vivecraft!
IMPORTANT: This pack does NOT ALLOW YOU TO PLAY VR FROM THE GET-GO. You will need to install Vivecraft in order to play in VR. Setup instructions are at the end of this README.
Tired of all the complex modpacks out there that try to cram in a bunch of complex mods that require 50 pages of documentation so you can understand how to make a crafting table? Me too! That's why I made this. A modpack that focuses less on adding new features, and more on adding new aesthetics! Biomes, ores, you name it, there's something here for everyone! No complex setup required (unless you're playing VR, sorry!), just install and go!
Natural+ comes in three editions:
Plus Edition - This is the base edition, and is highly recommended. You get the most out of this; tons of new biomes, new ores, new mobs, an all around relaxing experience where you don't have to focus on getting to a bossfight as soon as possible.
VR Edition - If you ever wanted to play Minecraft in VR, then you might know about a mod named Vivecraft. If you've used it with mods, you might also know you need a very specific version of Forge to run it. The VR Edition of Natural+ takes away some mods that aren't compatible with Vivecraft's required Forge version. It's a sacrifice, but you'll get to experience the pack in VR!
Potato Edition - Got a PC running on a potato battery? Maybe not, but you might have a very low end PC. If your computer can run vanilla Minecraft, it can probably run this version of the pack. It takes away a lot of the mods, while keeping all the performance-related ones intact. Explore beautiful landscapes on a laptop you found in the garbage bin outside Denny's!
You're currently looking at the description for the VR Edition of Natural+. Welcome, explorer!
110% More immersive!
Natural+ VR Edition is completely compatible with the latest version of Vivecraft, a mod that allows you to play Minecraft in VR! You'll be sacrificing a few mods, and using the older versions of some others, but you'll still overall have the Natural+ Plus experience... in VR! How immersive!
VR Tested, VR Approved.
This was completely tested in both desktop mode and VR mode. Everything in the mod works super swimmingly with VR, you have my guarantee.
Just like vanilla! Except, not really.
Almost every feature of Natural+ works the exact way you'd expect it to in vanilla Minecraft. You don't have to place down multiple blocks to create something that actually works. And if you're ever confused, you have the Just Enough Items menu here to help!
Right down to the main menu.
Natural+ also comes with its own resourcepack (included in the file, this time!) that simply replaces the menu logo and splash text. Easy enough, and compatible with everything.
And so much more!
In Natural+, you'll never run out of things to do. Even if you've built a little cottage by the lake and think you've seen everything, just walk in a new direction. You're guaranteed to find something you've never seen before.

Known Issues
Issue: Forge freezes upon mod load!
Resolution: That's normal. Usually caused by OptiFine (not included in the pack, btw). Just wait a bit, your game will load.
I: There was an error with "Supplementaries"
R: That's normal. Just restart your client and you should be fine. I don't know what causes this, but it's not very important.
I: My client freezes when using Pregen!
R: You should not be using Pregen in VR mode. It's possible to use it, but as it is very resource intensive, I highly recommend you don't. Use it in desktop mode instead.
I: My client crashes when using Pregen!
R: Read above.
I: Vivecraft isn't opening!
R: Make sure you're using the latest version. This has only been tested with the latest version.
I: How do I do <mod function>?
R: Either assign it to the Radial Menu under VR Settings, or bind it to a certain button in SteamVR bindings.
I: I need help with Vivecraft, not with this pack...
R: Well don't look at me! Vivecraft has an official Discord server, you can ask there.
Natural+ VR Edition is made for Minecraft 1.16.4 (but should technically be compatible with 1.16.5 and maybe the other 1.16 versions) and Forge 35.0.7. Please keep this in mind when downloading the pack.
Before you ask, no I will not backport it to older versions of Minecraft, nor older versions of Forge.
Setup Instructions for Vivecraft
It is recommended you use PolyMC for the profile, though this is not required.
1. Install Natural+ VR from the CurseForge client.
2. IF POLYMC: Install the files to the OFFICIAL LAUNCHER FIRST. And then copy the files from there to your instance folder.
3. Download Vivecraft for 1.16
4. IF POLYMC: Create an instance FIRST! Then run it AT LEAST ONCE. It should be Minecraft 1.16.4 with Forge 35.0.7. Then close PolyMC COMPLETELY.
5. Select "Install Vivecraft with Forge". DO NOT ENTER A CUSTOM FORGE VERSION.
6. The modpack directory can simply be pointed towards your installation's /mod/ folder.
7. RECOMMENDATION: You should allocate at least 8GB of RAM for this pack.
8. DO NOT ENABLE ANY OF THE ADVANCED OPTIONS.
9. IF POLYMC: Change the install directory for Vivecraft to the root path of your PolyMC installation. (eg. C:/Users/Autumn/PolyMC/) Do NOT use an Instance directory!!!!
10. IF POLYMC: Select the instance you made in Step 4 and hit Install.
11. Vivecraft should now be installed, and you should be able to jump right into Natural+! Have fun, explorer!
