Tips on modpacks..

 


 For sure many modpacks nowadays have almost 100+ mods in them.
Many people can't play a modpack with 200 mods and have good fps, so thinking around 100- mods should be a good start.
By adding only 100 mods or less, more people can play and enjoy your pack and while playing fps will be at a good rate.

How to make a modpack different and unique from others?
Well, making a modpack is an "easy" step but it coming out as unique?
Something that will surely make it unque is adding custom items, or ideas in it.

Meaning:

Making a custom map for your modpack or making custom npcs that you can trade and talk to.
Adding a story to it which fits the whole custom map idea and gives it a more customized touch!
Tools for doing this: world painter or in-game mod world-edit.

Re-writting or renaming items in game can for sure give minecraft a new feel.
While, for this you can use CraftTweaker, all information on how to use it is available on their site.
(some knowledge of code is required).

Quests can also guide the player to a more personalized play through with rewards, demands of giving items or completing tasks such as: going to a location or killing a mob required to progress.
Mods such as: (HQM, Better Questing, FTB Quests).

Tweaking hunger, thirst or skill mechanics is one of the thing that makes RLCraft so popular and loved!
Minecraft on it's own misses this difficulty. You go to a desert wearing full armour...?
Isn't that overpowered? You can survive the night with no armour or cold....

These "small" things can make a modded experience so much better because of the application of realistic factors or fantastic ones missing from the game!

Adding rewards to mob killing. Such as lootbags!
Lootbags have a percentage to drop from a mob when killed.
Drops and chances are highly configurable! (Mod available in curseforge)

Small mods that add what should be in vanilla like apotheosis or decoration mods.
Makes it visually appealing and useful!

A custom-built starting point can also make a new experience better!

Modpack and NPC WAR

 The modpack I am making is a modpack based on something I was always in search of. Quests, adventure, magic and tech! It mainly uses custom npcs mod as it's main core, for other npcs and such. Furthermore many of the textures (used in custom npcs mod) that you will see are not mine. They were made by NPC WAR. His youtube channel can be found here: NPC'S WAR Youtube Channel The textures I used are here (both in old and new format): NPC'S WAR Custom Skins In this pack you will find: - Custom made biomes from a simple desert to the scary blackstone lands! - A huge variety of npcs in almost every village! - A lot of quests for basic survival, leveling and map related! - Tons of weapons and armor to choοse from! - Many different shops in each area ranging from tool smiths to an exp eater! - A big variety of building styles, block matching and detail to the last block! - The trading system if used correctly, lots of profit can be made from each shop! - Every hostile npc has drop...

Config Changing

  Since we talked about  changing  recipes to your liking. Many mods when added into Minecraft create a config file containing item and block ids,  or mechanics and other stuff  related to each mod. For the people who don't know: Config files can be found here: In  the  windows bar: Type %appdata%. Open Minecraft's directory. Open the Config folder. There should cfg files for each mod that you have  added. CFG files can be opened with a simple text editor or  Notepad ++. They are very easy to change as many of  the things in a config file have a true or false in the end. Meaning: You add a mod  that adds new  blocks in  the game. You want  to change some ids along with a hardening difficulty the  mod adds. You will open and find the mod's config file (see above), open the mod's config. Find the id's you want to change and the line with the  difficulty. In  the end if it  says true change it to fals...

The Future of Infinity Stones and more...

 Infinity Stones as of now is currently available in 1.12.2 alone... Well, that changes as it will be in 1.16.5 too! With some slight changes such as: - For starters the name of the mod: Revamped Infinity Base! - A cleaner base on weapons as durability and their crafting recipes are stabilized. - Decorative blocks can be crafted by placing an ingot in the stone cutter. Simple as that! - New weapons and equipment will be available by using addons (not out yet)! - Tabs are clean as of the 1.12.2 version so will the new version be.
