REWORKS

-removed MOST speed-increasing blocks, left only the path block as a speedy block (removed block runner mod and replaced with SpeedyPath bcs the blockrunner mod sometimes just didnt boot with the game and the intended blocks didn't increase speed, the new mod doesn't have that problem).

-removed firelfy mob as it didn't emit light with the new dynamic-light mod

-removed unnecessary achievements (that were associated with content removed & unwanted by me)

-replaced modern beta mod with moderner beta (a new and updated fork of the modern beta mod)

-changed chainmail wolf armor into copper wolf armor

-changed short grass textures to look all classic-style (whereas before some grass pieces looked modern-styled)

-VILLAGER TRADERS & PILLAGER PATROLS are now always disabled by default, the wandering traders now appear in villages as different visitors!

-removed horizontal glass panes, they were too simmilar to glass trapdoors and I saw them as unnecesary

-retextured many items to be more consistent with old-school vanilla look

-removed normal amethyst armor & tools, they are too simmilar to iron and therefore in my eyes dont provide a meaningful content expansion (only pure amethyst tools left), the way to get amethyst tools & armor now is to craft them from pure amethyst gems that are made by combining amethyst shards & 4 ender pearls

-disabled many, many undesirable items via reliable remover mod

-chests now don't block lighting

-removed rose gold tools!!!

-removed wooden shield as it seems like a too op early-game item. Instead added copper shield!

-removed crabs, they weren't animated properly

-disabled echo Staff

-removed frogs, they felt too weird, gimmicky & complicated as a mob and they clashed with the style of content this modpack aims to give

-changed frog variants & now they work with a texture pack instead of a mod

-removed copper bucket & copper lantern

-removed the aquarium block, it rendered weird and was useless in comparison to building an aquarium

-removed river redux mod & terrablender bcs they started randomly crashing the modpack
