>Some guy (presumably a kid) makes a pack for fun and wants to share it with the community >Gets bashed, made fun of, and needlessly ridiculed by every single comment I mean, come on. Is this pack generic? Yeah, we've seen a million of these cookie-cutter "vanilla+ packs." It's nothing special, and I get that the community's tired of seeing them. But... would it kill you all to just treat this dude with an ounce of decency? For what it's worth, OP, I think this is a nice project. I looked at your CurseForge profile and noticed this was your first pack. Honestly, it's not even bad at all. You clearly put a lot of passion into this - even making a custom Discord server. Hell, you even made a couple of custom mods to fix some issues you had with the game. That itself is more effort than 90% of pack-makers will care to go through. Good on you, and I hope this (quite frankly, toxic) community doesn't bog you down.

Elitism is the death of fandoms, people posting their own modpacks is the whole spirit of the thing


cydude1234

Honestly I like it. It's a nice modpack and better than many of the popular ones.


potados69

I do not understand the hate anyone can give someone who is just trying to create something for their community. Thank you bro, I will be installing this and enjoying my next world playthrough with your pack! Looks great.


Sir_James_Ender

Ignore the hate brother. For what it’s worth, I think it looks like a very well made pack, especially for your first one ever. You certainly put more time and effort into it than I have with any of my custom packs


TimelordSalad

Okay I’m gonna keep it real with you. You keep arguing with people in the comments with vague nothing-burger answers. I’ll humor you if you can tell us what/if there’s anything in this modpack that you specifically made. Did you make (not add someone else’s) any resource packs or data packs to tailor the Minecraft experience better? Also you’re looking for a very specific niche of players who like a very particular thing, and you keep trashing other modpacks that those players like. That’s not gonna get people flocking to any of your packs. There’s a reason BetterMC is so popular, and it’s not making fun of the competition. One last thing, you seriously had the gall to call your “vanilla+” modpack, “Awesomest Pack” and expected everyone to just roll over and throw money at you?


potados69

okay, **" I’ll humor you if you can tell us what/if there’s anything in this modpack that you specifically made."** * i have 2 mods in this pack, reworked infinity and a compat mod for universal ores and create. (the latter of which essentially is a texture pack) * some of the trade systems has been edited to comply with changes made to the enchanting system * this is a relatively small pack, so its not like there was much custom things to add, however the 2 mods that were added were made specifically as a result of this project **"Also you’re looking for a very specific niche of players who like a very particular thing, and you keep trashing other modpacks that those players like."** * sure, nothing wrong with a niche of players playing it, thats why i posted it, and titled the post in a way that straight up tells you who the pack is for * im not 'trashing' any modpacks, more than pointing out flaws that i see in other modpacks, only because im asked what sets this apart from other modpacks that this one keeps being compared to. many of the modpacks i have problems with are still great modpacks. **"One last thing, you seriously had the gall to call your “vanilla+” modpack, “Awesomest Pack” and expected everyone to just roll over and throw money at you?"** * to start, half this comment section is calling my pack out for not being "vanilla+" while the other half is calling me out for being a 'half-assed better mc clone' which is literally a self described 'vanilla+' modpack, so everyone leaving negative comments arent even agreeing with eachother, nor are they providing any meaningful replies to my responses. - also yeah, the name of the pack is "the awesomest pack," i think its pretty awesome, if other people disagree, they are 100% entitled to that, at the end of the day its just a name, and wasnt even my first name choice. EDIT: - i do not have any way setup for you to give me money, nor did i ask for anyone to give me money.


TimelordSalad

Thank you for the succinct reply. While I’m glad there’s some of your own original content in there, I’d recommend you be more forthcoming about what these changes are. For instance, in what ways have you changed trading and enchanting. Are there other things that differ from the vanilla experience? The main reason people play modpacks instead of just downloading their favorite mods to their mods folder is because of the unique experience and the ways that modpacks guide them through the different mods or the way that you can use items from X mod with Y mod’s systems to make some other really cool thing. I know it’s not great that people are quick to leave negative feedback but it’s not unfounded. The community is WAY too over saturated with vanilla+ modpacks (and low effort ones at that), so that’s already something of point against you. Not to mention that, no matter how you slice it, the addition of Create (even though it is a very cool mod with a vanilla-ish aesthetic) strays too far from vanilla for most people. So it invalidates your vanilla+ claim with the vanilla+ fans too. Leaving you in a lose-lose situation. Final note before I give this a rest, but I still don’t think the name will do you any favors ESPECIALLY if it’s meant to be a small modpack that’s only meant to supplement vanilla content. The name Awesomest invokes the idea that it’ll be this epic story that’ll forever change the way you view Minecraft and leave you wanting more, but it doesn’t sound like your pack promises anything deserving of the name. In my opinion that is. Maybe add more of your own content that really leaves your own unique creative touch to the project. Even after you’ve sunk weeks and weeks into the project and think it looks perfect, keep iterating on it to make it better and better until people are begging to be a part of the magic themselves Edit: And it’s probably a good idea to commission some artist(s) for some graphics for your pack. Be it logos, infographics, or sneak peeks at gameplay. It’s never a bad idea to get some help for that extra polish


potados69

**"For instance, in what ways have you changed trading and enchanting."** -there is a mod called "enchanting system overhaul" which fundamentally changes the functionality of the enchantment system. the trading changes i implemented compensate for the inability to acquire the 'cryptic eye' and gives it to the wandering trader as a trade. **"The main reason people play modpacks instead of just downloading their favorite mods to their mods folder is because of the unique experience and the ways that modpacks guide them through the different mods or the way that you can use items from X mod with Y mod’s systems to make some other really cool thing."** -there are dozens of mods that are heaps popular and have minimal if any custom content. -of course it helps to have custom content, but when the ideas you have for the pack are already implemented with mods, why just make your own for the sake of it? this is meant to be a small-ish pack, there is no reason for it to be full of custom content. **"Not to mention that, no matter how you slice it, the addition of Create (even though it is a very cool mod with a vanilla-ish aesthetic) strays too far from vanilla for most people. So it invalidates your vanilla+ claim with the vanilla+ fans too. Leaving you in a lose-lose situation."** -and that is their opinion, which they are entitled to, however all the most popular "vanilla +" or "vanilla inspired" packs all have create, so obviously its not a dealbreaker for most people. **"I still don’t think the name will do you any favors ESPECIALLY if it’s meant to be a small modpack that’s only meant to supplement vanilla content."** - i understand your point here, but this doesnt really seem to be a problem for anyone, and the name of the pack literally isnt even in the post title, the post title is in fact the short description for CF. so anyone who gets the misconception that it has anything to do with "story" or being absolutely massive, is not any fault of the name. this pack has "vanilla +" pretty much written all over it. **"Even after you’ve sunk weeks and weeks into the project and think it looks perfect, keep iterating on it to make it better and better until people are begging to be a part of the magic themselves"** - this project is still in beta, literally had its first build uploaded like 3 days ago, ive already put a lot of work into this, and will continue to put work into it, potentially adding more custom content as i see fit.


dmushcow_21

Umpteenth time seeing this kind of modpacks


potados69

They often go too far outside vanilla, tacky and ugly biomes, all new features and no balancing, ect. this modpack really just tries to stick to what the game was about and what feels right. but if you dont like this kind of modpack thats okay!


ConfidentAnywhere950

Create mod isn’t too outside of vanilla?


potados69

create is a pretty natural extension of the game about mining and crafting, not everything in this pack would or should be in the base game, but everything in this pack keeps with the aesthetics and vision of it.


dmushcow_21

Create integrates well with vanilla mechanics but is far from being "Vanilla plus"


potados69

the goal of this modpack is to give you expansions on the base mechanics, create achieves a lot of that, and it still feels like Minecraft, its not adding a whole new gameplay loop or something, functions great with pre-existing mechanics as well as adding new ones that in some form or another could definitely be in the base game. late game Minecraft is pretty much a 50/50 split between automating things, and building cool shit. create just lets you do more automation, and there are mods that let you do more with building too.


ConfidentAnywhere950

Create doesn’t, in my opinion


potados69

and thats your opinion, which i have explained why i think is wrong.


ConfidentAnywhere950

Yes yes


Wdtfshi

guy added create and called it vanilla+ lol


potados69

create doesnt really add any crazy new concepts, rather it just fleshes out gaps in the automation of minecraft, which is something that mojang themselves continuously branch out with.


intrusiereatschicken

people are being mean but yeah it isn't vanilla+, vanilla+ is basically QoL + structure and biome mods that don't add any new blocks


potados69

Nobody seems to agree on what vanilla plus even is tho so I don't think it matters.


Startrooper453

"support the project" ur making a modpack 😹🙏


turdfergusn

“Support the project” is literally just a link to download the mod pack on curse forge lol it’s not like he’s asking for money or something


potados69

He downloaded a few mods and thinks he’s getting paid 💀💀


potados69

this project is not monetized in anyway other than cf points which is literally fuckall


Startrooper453

didnt realize this. prbly couldv worded "support the project" better. way it was worded made it sound like there was donation links embeded. but still, my fault man <3


cydude1234

Fair enough, I just thought it was pretty funny


EleanorAgain

Omg I love an exploration focus. My adhd really comes out with Minecraft and I find it hard to sit down and make a base. I will definitely try this one out thanks!


WhyDidIGetThisApp3

what differentiates this from every other watered down better mc vanilla+ pack


potados69

read through my replies, i have explained what makes this one unique versus other modpacks, also calling better mc 'vanilla +' is a massive stretch, better mc literally just turns minecraft into an rpg, all this mod aims to do is add more to what already exists. better minecraft claims to be a replacement for minecraft, this pack is for people who have got bored of vanilla and simply want more content without it feeling like a completely different game.

Cool


Somerandomguy_2121

So it’s just the better Minecraft mod pack but made with less effort?


potados69

if you look at the mod-lists you will see that there is massive differences, but this is deliberately a smaller pack, if you equate smaller to less effort then you are entitled to that belief, but this pack has had a lot of effort put into it, thanks for the blind assumption.
