Welcome to Yeastdonkey's Modpack!

About This Modpack

This pack includes many basic QOL features and tweaks that maintain the vanilla feel along with tools and utilities that improve the gameplay experience and allow one to fully interact with other players on any Yeastdonkey Minecraft servers.

This modpack follows the ethos observed by many prominent Minecraft personalities such as Ilmango or Xisumavoid – namely, "vanilla+". What this modpack does NOT contain are any mods that drastically change gameplay or add anything in-game.

This modpack can also be used anywhere else by people who want to stay mostly vanilla but want the wide array of QOL improvements and utilities provided in this pack, and it is compatible with standard vanilla servers.

NOTE: some features will not work in 100% vanilla servers, such as syncmatica or other mods that require a server component to be installed. However, most base features will remain operational.

Why This Modpack

This modpack subscribes to the vanilla spirit that many other packs do as well, but it goes further than most by adding tools, tweaks, and utilities that toe the line of what's considered "vanilla".
