Vanilla Faithful banner

A collection of vanilla-friendly addons that offer performance, visuals, and some useful features for survival players. No additions are made to the game itself, so it's safe on any vanilla server. This comes bundled with resource packs and shaders to enhance your survival experience.

Why this pack over others?

This modpack strikes the perfect balance between raw optimization and fun features for survival. If you want Minecraft to feel fresh again, this is for you. It refreshes the experience of Minecraft without ruining vanilla.

No tinkering required. There are pre-made resource pack profiles and the shader packs are pre-configured to maintain visuals while increasing performance.

What does it offer?

This is more than Sodium and Lithium; I spent hours finding the best performance mods and rigorously testing compatibility within the game. Improved chunk loading, rendering, culling, and more optimizations.

The visuals also receive an upgrade. You get Iris shader support with many bundled resource packs that overhaul the UI and add fluid animations to the player and mobs.

There are a handful of quality-of-life mods that improve the survival experience, such as zooming, a coordinate manager, survival-friendly freecam, and more.

What else comes included?

Along with the mods, the pack also includes:

You can mix-and-match the resource packs to lean towards a vanilla feel or a fun, animated experience that feels like the trailers.

Multiplayer?

You can join any vanilla server without having to turn off mods, since this modpack doesn't modify any vanilla behavior. Additionally, telemetry is disabled, and chat messages will not be tracked by Mojang.

Note: While all mods are designed to work client-side, bugs may appear within them.
