Minecraft Unchained
Close to vanilla, yet so far!
Introduction
This pack aims to provide a close to vanilla experience for technically minded players that don't have enough time at hand to stick with the vanilla version of the game.
Each addition to the pack aims to solve a specific "issue" with vanilla Minecraft while preserving the vanilla tech mechanics. In order to achieve this, each addition is carefully considered and tweaked to avoid overpowered parts of any mod.
Mods
Almost all mods have some of its original mechanics and capabilities removed, and/or adjusted recipes.
AppleSkin
Adds information about food to the UI.
Bedrock Miner
Adds a block that is able to break bedrock. This allows easier creation of wither cages and small scale bedrock removal. Large scale removal should still be done with dragon eggs. [This mod also adds bedrock tools. As soon as a config option becomes available, these will be disabled.]
Better Builder's Wands
Adds wands to place large amounts of blocks at once.
Better mobGriefing GameRule
Allows to enable/disable single mobGriefing rules instead of a plain on/off. The pack disables enderman griefing by default, but leaves everything else active.
Chicken Chunks 1.8.+
Adds simple chunkloaders as vanilla chunk loading is important, but very annoying to do.
CT TinyCoal
Adds mini coals that smelt only 1 item.
Ex Nihilo: Creatio
Adds hammers that allow the player to create gravel and sand from cobblestone. This makes both resources farmable. In addition, the barrels and crucibles offer ways to create mycelium, clay, lava and obsidian. The sieves got nerfed heavily. Infested leaves wont spread and wont drop string. [As soon as the option becomes available, the mod will be reduced to barrel, crucibles and hammers.]
Fast Leaf Decay
Nobody has time to wait for leaves to decay. The decay time was lowered significantly, however, it is still way higher than the default option of "Fast Leaf Decay". This might changes tree farm designs significantly.
GraveStone Mod
As dying is rather rare for advanced players anyway, there is no reason to potentially loose all items.
JourneyMap
Adds ingame waypoints and a useful map for orientation.
JEI
Adds the necessary item overview. In order to keep JEI clean and useful, a very large amount of items are hidden by default.
Magic Feather
Adds creative flight in the area of a beacon. This should make building large scale projects and machines significantly easier and faster.
More Overlays
Adds a light level overlay to actually see dark spots.
Mouse Tweaks
Adds some nice tweaks to the mouse wheel and clicks.
Netherending Ores
The vanilla nether is quite big but boring. Netherending ores adds some basic ores to the dimension in order to encourage players to build a vanilla quarry in the nether. The rate of ores should be low enough to make strip mining in the nether rather unattractive, especially with the lava pockets.
Schematica
Makes building of large scale machines and constructions easier.
Storage Drawers
Adds some more convenient and lag friendly storage solutions.
Quark
Most changes that quark offers are active in this pack.
You can check out the full list of features here: https://quark.vazkii.us/

The most notably parts of quark that are disabled:
- Ender Watcher

- Enderman Anti-Cheese

Translocation Mod
The translocation bug was a great "addition" to minecraft. Sadly it got removed. This mod brings a lot of that functionality back as a block.
Uppers
Adds upside down hoppers.
Wearable Backpacks
Adds a basic inventory increase.
Crafting recipes
Shulker Box
Shulker Boxes are too rare for technical players. Now you can farm/craft them instead of duping.
Sponge
Hunting for sponges is annoying and just increases your world file.
Cobweb
A very useful block that is annoying to come by.
Dragon Egg
Can now be crafted instead of duped.
Sand/Red Sand conversions
Craftable conversion instead of duping.
Dead Bush
Adds a way to smelt tall grass into dead bushes.
Podzol
Podzol can be crafted with dirt and spruce leaves.
Packed Ice
Can be crafted from normal ice.
