Neo Metropolis: Bountiful

About This Pack

Neo Metropolis: Bountiful is my modern rebuild of the classic Sim City-style Minecraft experience. I hand-picked and configured 80+ mods to create a full urban simulation built on top of vanilla Minecraft — with a focus on city building, dining, careers, and community.

I made this pack because I missed the old Sim City modpacks, and wanted to bring that feeling to modern Minecraft using today's best urban-life mods.

Core Features

🏙️ City Simulation — Core Mod: Sim-U-Kraft Plan your city from the ground up and experience the life of a mayor.

🍳 Immersive Dining — Kaleidoscope Cookery + Kaleidoscope Doll An immersive, cozy survival experience with a rich cooking system that takes you through the full journey from farm to table.

🪑 Furniture & Decoration — Thousands of placeable objects Create your own unique spaces, from cafés to office buildings — if you can imagine it, you can build it.

👥 Career System — Jobs+ + Skill Proficiencies Each player can choose up to 2 professions. Combined with the skill proficiency mod, there are plenty of unique late-game upgrades to explore.

⚡ Performance — Sodium + FerriteCore + additional optimization mods Ensures stable FPS even as your city grows in size and complexity.

🧨 Explosion Protection — Creeper Firework Creeper explosions will no longer destroy your beloved city buildings.

Featured Mods

• Traveler's Backpack — Expands your inventory and supports upgrades, blending perfectly into vanilla. No more worrying about running out of space for building materials.
• AstikorCarts Redux — Convenient overland creature transport. Press R to connect carts.
• Punchy! — Action optimization mod with a matching resource pack for smoother, more fluid controls.

Design Philosophy

This pack intentionally includes no quest system, keeping things completely open-ended — players discover gameplay and recipes through JEI. The mod list is kept lean to avoid overwhelming players, so everyone can build their city at their own pace.

My Configuration Work

This isn't just a mod dump — I personally:

• Integrated Creeper Firework to protect city buildings from explosion damage.
• Configured compatibility between Jobs+ and Skill Proficiencies.
• Tested and adjusted compatibility across all 80+ included mods.
• Carefully curated the mod list to ensure a consistent style without bloat.
