Strixun: Trials of the Wild – A Curated Long‑Form Progression Modpack

ℹ️ A hardcore survival and exploration modpack with ~250 carefully curated mods, featuring my own creations — Rituals, a mystical totem‑magic system, and Compressy, a near‑infinite storage solution — woven naturally into long‑form progression, dangerous worldgen, and a world that pushes back.

Overview

~

Pack A is a progression‑focused kitchen‑sink modpack with ~250 curated mods, built for immersive adventuring, long‑form progression, and high replayability. It blends exploration, multiple skill systems (including SimpleSkills), and deeply tuned world generation with a tiered resource path that starts at wood and climbs through stone, copper, iron, and beyond. Every milestone feels earned, and every biome has a story to tell. ^_^

Alongside the community’s best mods, this pack includes two custom mods I built specifically to enhance this experience:

Rituals Rituals — Totem Magic for Survival, Buffs & Automation

A mystical, lore‑friendly system that adds magical totems, area buffs, automated defenses, farming tools, and multi‑totem pattern rituals.
It’s powerful, but intentionally balanced — a toolset that rewards planning without trivializing survival.

Compressy Compressy — Extreme Storage Without Tech Progression

Compress any block up to 32 tiers using standard crafting recipes.
Perfect for long mining trips, megabuilds, and keeping inventories clean without introducing late‑game tech shortcuts.

Both mods are designed to support the pack’s progression, not dominate it — they feel like natural extensions of the world.

The intended playstyle is hardcore‑leaning: disabling raids and natural health regeneration is recommended for the full experience (campfires are your friend), Ironman mode is enabled in SimpleSkills, and the world is designed to push back. Server usage compatible, see changelog notes for mods to exclude from server (client-only stuff). ;)


🌦️ Seasons, Survival & Environmental Hazards

Plan ahead: seasons shift, temperatures fluctuate, and biomes present unique environmental challenges.

Stay warm, stay fed, stay alive. o_o


📘 Track Everything

Keep track of… EVERYTHING with the included companion mod:

Completionist’s Index


🌍 World Generation & Exploration

Rediscover Minecraft with a world built from:

Terralith Tectonic Wilder Wild Geophilic Incendium Nullscape Scorched Vanilla Refresh

Structure & settlement expansion:

Towns and Towers Medieval Buildings Random Village Names

Punching trees is still allowed. Punching everything else is… questionable. >_<


🎮 Physics, Immersion & Visual Upgrades

Your world will feel alive — sometimes a little too alive. :O


📦 Storage, Logistics & Automation

Carry all the things using:

Metal Bundles Extended Drawers Tom’s Simple Storage Storage Delight Classic Pipes Compressy

Press Y while hovering an item to highlight it in nearby storage.
Storage inception is real. :P

Compressy, my own storage mod, lets you compress any block up to ridiculous levels using standard crafting recipes — perfect for long mining sessions and megabuilds without introducing late‑game tech shortcuts.

Automation options include:

Rituals Create Fly Tool Trims Enchantments Encore Enchants & Expeditions

Rituals, my totem‑based datapack/mod, adds magical totems that can handle things like area buffs, base defense, growth, and multi‑totem patterns for more advanced setups — useful tools that still respect the survival challenge.


🐾 Wildlife, Pets & Companions

A massive roster of creatures from:

Cosy Critters Better Pets IndyPets More Mobs Sea Life

If it moves, it probably has a custom animation. :3


⚔️ Combat, Skills & Survival Systems

SimpleSkills Combat Nouveau Hardcore Revival Passive Shield Followers Teleport Too My Totem Doll

Survival is earned, not given. \o/


🧰 Quality of Life (But Not Too Much)

Jade JourneyMap Inventory Sorting Chat Heads Dynamic Tooltips Paginated Advancements Mod Menu YOSBR

QoL that helps — without trivializing the journey. :)
