Enjoy a catalogue of some of the most staple mods that are deemed 'essential'. This is of course subjective from person to person, but many of these are familiar enough that you'll most likely come across in most modpacks. Let me know your thoughts on this video! Did you like it, what did you want to see improved and would you like to see other videos like this! 🙂 Disclaimer: The results in the performance mods will vary from machine to machine and depends on other factors (memory, specs, version, how many mods, etc.)
In case you care, at 08:53 your book flyout for Lithium is showing Phosphor info instead. This is a great overview of the backbone modpack mods and I really appreciate the extra notes on which versions a particular mod is useful on due to native Mojang fixes, etc. Thanks for sharing!
For the "Enough Items" mods, do you know if there's a mod or some config option that allows repeated recipes/items like doors, for example, to be "folded" into a single entry on the "Enough Items" menus? I could swear that I've seen that modification on some older YT modpack playthroughs but I can never seem to find the way to actually fold the recipes in any of the mods. Much appreciated if you could either find that option or mod.
@morgans4977 Yea I noticed that as I was putting the final details in on UA-cam, but thankyou, I needed to do a more thorough check on this video for mistakes! Pleased you enjoyed this video :)
@DontBother_YT There should be some config option in the main Enough Items mods to be able to change it. Never really done it myself, but if there's anything to 'fold' repeated recipes/items, it would be in their configs. Possibly in REI or EMI, though I'm not sure what it would be labelled as.
Also consider: - AI Improvements - Bad Wither No Cookie - Reloaded - Bad Optimizations - Better Mods Button - Better Advancements - Catalogue - Clear Despawn - Clean Tooltips - Ding - Distant Horizons - Eccentric Tome - Every Compat - Extra Compact - Fast Paintings - Fastload - any zoom mod - Neko's Enchanted Books - Neruina - Ticking Entity Fixer - Noisium - Not Enough Recipe Book - Iris / Oculus - Redirector - Remove Reloading Screen - Saturn - Seamless - Screenshot Viewer - Tiny Item Animations - YUNG's Menu Tweaks just felt like adding some great mods that i had in my forge 1.20.1 pack :3
@alululululu Thanks for this list mate! I can't believe I forgot to include Screenshot Viewer even though I used it in the video!! Good ideas for a part 2 if I ever did one :D
@@CrittersModMenagerie exactly. In some mods you have such convoluted crafting recipes that it’s impossible to keep track. This mod would be perfect for that cause you have one pretty convenient way of looking at the whole crafting process. Love it.
I just have to say, I have been working on a modpack for a month now and I JUST CAME AGROSS ONE REAL FUCKING GOOD MINECRAFT MOD LIST VIDEO. This video was put together very well and well written. Great job and keep up the great work
When this video was recommended, i was like "uhh probably i will know them all". But while watching it, even though i knew most of the mods there were some mods i didn't know about. You did a great job and have done some good research about mods. Also you gave all of them a fair show and understandable comparison to the vanilla gameplay. Great job
Thanks mate! I was expecting this too to just be all the familiar mods but suprisingly there's some that are a bit under the radar. Always ensure I try to show the mod to the best of my ability. :)
I’ve been looking for a video like this for a while, something that is an overview of the mods to use as a base for modpacks, especially the performance and stability mods. This is great!
@rickyc1410 I'm glad people like you are looking for a video like this! I remember a few months back looking for something like this when prepping this video but I couldn't find anything that fit the bill. There was quite a few mods left out but works as a good starting point. Hope this is helpful for you mate! :)
Excellent Quality of video. Separating the mods in different categories, adding really cool b-roll, the names of mods in a paper on screen, and a lot of useful mods.
Idk why but this guy is just so much better than every other mod reviewing channel. He just gave me a full package of performance mods without it just "being in a modpack". He literally explained everyone and even showed ones i didn't even know aboutl. Bravo to this guy ngl
This video is great. Bro even put subtitles. I sometimes don't hear what he says and its very helpful. Bro, this video is awesome and truly deserved millions of views. Good luck
Was a few long sessions of making subtitles for this video but it helps out. I'm glad that they prove to be useful and that you use them for some cases!
The one thing that I really hate is how underated the mod called "Key Wizard" is. Like bruh, that thing is way, way, way, waaaaay better than "Controlling" mod when it comes to fixing conflicting keybinds. Its a virtual keyboard menu that shows what key is conflicting AND it can CLEAR KEYBINDS, yes. I dont know if its impossible in vanilla but i cannot for the life of me, find how to completely remove a key from a certain control, I always need to bind them to a key I'll never use Like not just in Minecraft but I hate how keybinds are always listed in many games instead of an interactive virtual keyboard that shows green when a key doesn't have conflict and red when it has conflicts and hovering shows which control conflicts and shares the same key. This thing is a godsend and the fact that people don't know what this is and that no one is raising questions is baffling to me
Interesting mod! I've never seen it before but it's a good way to view all your keybinds clearly at once. In vanilla, you press Esc to clear a keybind. Thanks for mentioning Key Wizard! Will need to check it out sometime
When the game has so many problems that unofficial mods makes it run smoother and less crash prone than the development team backed by a multimillion dollar company can .
Ahhh, I wouldn't really put it to that entirely. Sure, Minecraft and subsequently Mojang, has had some problems with some updates and features, in paricular the ever-increasing memory usage from each update, but they've done surpisingly quite a bit of under the hood changes (updating their lighting engine in 1.20 as well as numerous bug fixes in 1.20 + 1.15, not to mention other technical changes too, plus them making the next update require Java 20 I think? should add some improvements too. Considering it's a 15 year game at this point, that's still getting worked on yearly, things will inevitably seep through.
Optimizing their game yields them no money. There’s no incentive for them to do this. People who care will just install the mods and be happy. Mob vote and other stupid shit is what their market research tells them will bring in more players and more income.
@CrittersModMenagerie Minecraft always had problems with optimisation and its rendering engines. My PC can handle a lot of games, but it struggles with 60 FPS without Sodium on modern versions. Most of their changes are for the datapacks, which is a neat feature tbh.
Its called crowd intelligence. Why not make people all over the world improve your game for free rather than paying alot of software engineers to do the same.
I really liked this video! Usually I don't peak much into the Best Mods video genre, but gave it a shot, and I must say this is one of the best channels that does it! You mentioned mods that many others don't (EMI for example) and included mods that I thought where long gone, or I haven't heard of (atlas, and map atlases). I liked that you didn't give your opinion much, just a brief overview of the mod in question, unlike other videos in the same genre of this one. 10/10 will recommend :D
Thanks mate! Yea, with a video that was meant to introduce you to a starter suite of mods, it's inevitable to mention the mainstream popular mods, since they're in many packs for a reason. Glad that I mentioned some others which are lesser known though! Pleased to hear you enjoyed this video :D
incredible video, I have been making modpacks for me and my friends for about 7 years now and there is still some mods that i didnt know about. Very good research, very good mods, very nice editing loved it watched it till the very end. Keep going with this style you will make it big.
@Astro-SB Thanks mate! Even with all these mods, there's some that are hidden under the radar. Hopefully some of them can make nice additions to your modpacks
I've been working on a 1.21 fabric Modpack on and off for weeks now, honestly it sucks that fabric mods can be run on forge but not the other way around, fabric seems better optimised to me, but there are like 4 exploration mods from forge that i really want but can't have. Despite all of my work searching through existing Modpacks, your video has been a great help, thank you
Glad to hear this was helpful! Yea, it's unfortunate with how that works with Fabric and Forge mods. Hopefully you're able to finish you pack together and find some good substitute mods
I highly recommend not using optifine, or any variant of it. It changes the game in ways no mod ever should, such as deleting functions that java relies on and replacing them with inaccurate ones. It has been known to cause all sorts of unpredictable issues both on its own and with other mods, and the performance improvements are hardware dependent at best, on some devices they don't improve anything at all. Another thing it does is sometimes decrease your render distance by 2, but then say it isn't changed, leading to a fake performance improvement just by doing less work.
Not saying you’re wrong, but it’s funny to think that this or any other Optifine slander probably wouldn’t have been said if stuff like Rubidium, Sodium, etc. wasn’t released. Also, it should be said Optifine is generally still considered the best performance enhancing mod for earlier versions of Minecraft.
@@forthelolz1121 it isn't slander, because it's true. Slander means it's a lie. Also, it was inevitable for these problems to become more apparent as the larger modding community got massively better at making stable compatible, and legally acceptable mods, while optifine got *worse*
@@CrittersModMenagerie Those performance mods are amazing. I obviously knew a few but had no idea there were plenty more which actually boost performance or reduce lags(I am using Bliss/Complementary shaders, mods really helped out to give that little boost and give lower load to CPU). Other sections are really good. Whoever grabbed MC for this sale and likes to mod should refer to this video.
@Techcactuss Always striving for that 1% improvement in the videos. Thanks for tuning in and for your kind words! Crazy to think that video was almost a year ago already
Update: A lot of UA-camrs use it without complaining, It has features that make it easy for me and my tech illiterate friend, I don't care about the micro transactions, Please stop commenting how I should use something else, I'm good. I'm saying this with Peace and Love, no more replies to this comment, thank you. I would add that there's a mod called Essential Mod, that adds a social messager to talk, share screenshots, customize your player model, and even freely play a single player world online with friends, again, for free! No enough people talk about it, it does everything Bedrock does, but better, because the money is going to a nodding team and not a multi billion dollar company.
@@CrittersModMenagerie Yep, one of the best things I've found for Minecraft. Makes playing with my best friend on modded packs free and easy to use, as well as having a better connection then any other service I've used. It needs to be talked about more.
Great work. Regarding gravestones, I'd like to bring Quark Oddities to consideration; it adds a lot more than graves, though every feature can be toggled off as it integrates with Quark, but it does have my personal favourite implementation with its totems of holding. They are entities that float and have animations instead of blocks or static corpses, which makes them well visible without feeling like a blemish on the landscape, and they're fun to interact with since they have you punch them repeatedly. They're fairly configurable, with options to have them break after a duration or to choose whether other players can take items from your totem, making them fit for any multiplayer scenario. Plus, Quark Oddities is already very common in mod packs, so it saves having to include another mod.
This video definitely saved me some time as I've been trying to make a list of vanilla plus mods. Also great editing dude :P Btw, could you mention what shader pack you were using? The double layered clouds looked amazing.
@ozzie2954 Glad this helps you out with finding those mods! Most of the video uses Nostalgia Shaders V5 set at Ultra settings. Those clouds do look awesome!
One I really like is the seasons mod, it's not a big mod but it adds so much weight to the passage of time in a world. Especially if you add a form of temperature mod that makes it during winter times or super times you need to wear appropriate clothing. Much like a good number of RPG games
I love the Corpse mod, so another thing worth noting is the fact that you can change how long the corpse lasts. By default it lasts forever, but you could make it last for only an hour, for example. I think you can also toggle whether or not it can be destroyed by lava.
first video of ur channel im watching but only seeing the first minute I know its gonna be a high quality video so im gonna grab some popcorn, enjoy the show and be grateful for this mod collection video. I love these
Great video! I would also suggest The Immersive Music Mod for the "Quality of Life" mods. It's very early in development, but it's the highest quality ambient music mod on the scene right now.
For item/recipe viewing, you can use EMI with JEI and some of the addons also work. It's good because some of mods in my modpack work only with EMI and other only with JEI/REI.
I only started playing Minecraft three days ago. I'm not really familiar with this game but I instantly fall in love with Minecraft Create series by Mr Beardstone but his modpack uses Forge and my device suffers from performance issues with this modloader so I switched to Fabric because a lot of online sources says it was a lighter modloader or something and i can actually feel the difference between the two. I wasted half of a day to look for alternatives to replicate his modpack into fabric and fortunately i manage to port 80% of it. Thanks to mod makers!
Mischif of Mice made a base template I like to use for making personal mod packs, and these are some excellent additions to my template now when I make new worlds to explore in!
I already know and plan to use the vast majority of these mods, but it's not every day that you come across a well-edited, structured, no TSS, and above all, entertaining video. Subscribed already. Just a quick question, did you use any animation mod/pack for this video. EDIT: After a closer it actually looks like it's mod, probably Real Camera.
@gustavomalvestiti8865 Glad you enjoyed the video! It was one of those video types where you know most of the mods in it, but I think it was beneficial to have a video that presents all those mods in the once place to easily view them. Yes, I have First Person Model mod installed, which is an alternative to Real Camera
29:52 This is a must have for me. I first used it in a mod pack that I quit after a few hours but realized I couldn’t go back to not having it so I had to make my own custom pack just to include it.
For forge 1.7.10 Angelica is an unoffical backport of sodium/embeddium! Also has culling improvements and Lumi is a forge mod like phosphor for older versions
Awesome to know those performance features are available in older versions! Was wondering if there was some backport of Sodium in 1.7.10 myself. Thanks for the info about these mods
Awesome video. Have you planned making similar videos for mods itself, with different themes? Those themes could stretch out the whole video and showcase different mods for similar ideas, like create and AE2 for automation, or different world gen mods
The closest video to something like this was an 'Essential' MC mods for multiplayer, basically this but multiplayer specific mods which wouldn't be worked on in a while if I did do it. Beyond that, I remember trying out a Mods to Overhaul the Trails and Tales Update when 1.20 mods were coming in but I kind of fell off it doing the script. Also have other video ideas in a similar vein to this, but haven't really looked into them.
I would add Sophisticated Backpacks and Storage too. This backpack mod is so useful while traversing the world. Its size is huge and the upgrades it has are convenient
a LOT of amazing mods, thank you so much, but I do have 1 note; Have you ever heard of the delightful mod called Mouse Wheelie? it's a lot like mouse tweaks and inventory tweaks but a little less bulky, it doesn't span everything those mods can do but it does touch upon a lot of what they're capable of.
Shootout to Forgery/Fabrication, a huge collection of fixes, tweaks and balance changes for vanilla minecraft that's fully customizable and replaces many mods by itself. Also the many mods by Someaddon. He has many performance enhancing mods and general fixes, along with some tweak mods.
@BVasquezp Thanks for mentioning those! Never seen Forgery/Fabrication before, it would have fit quite well with this video. Quite a few nice mods from Someaddon to enhance and fix the game too. Always mods to discover with a game like this
@@CrittersModMenagerie Glad to help. Perhaps you could do a followup video? there are a few extra mods going around that I consider essential. Here are a some from my current mod setup: - Async locator - Chunky - Sinytra connector (Requires Forgified Fabric API) + Connector Extras - Clumps - Better third person - Cycle switcher - Entity texture features - Entity model features - CIT Resewn / Forge CIT - Let me despawn - Mobtimizations - Modern Fix - No telemetry (functionality included in Debugify, but this one works in Forge 1.20.1) - Paper doll - Stylish effects - Yung's Traveler Titles Also I'm waiting for Better Biome Blend to update to 1.20.1, but it covers 1.19 currently.
@BVasquezp Could be something on the cards, depending on general reception. Thanks for this list too! Modern Fix and Clumps I actually already covered in the video, but the others are good suggestions too for a potential video
This could also be taken as a list of quality of life changes that minecraft might want to consider adding to the base game. Some could reserved to creative mode and some would need to be tweaked to considerably to fit the vanilla feel. But mouse tweaks and swing through should just be in the game.
Honestly, I consider most minimap mods a cheat. A lot of them let you see things that you couldn't without them, like x-raying caves and features underground, or showing you where mobs are at all times. That's why Antique Atlas has always been my gold standard for mapping. It's got a nice aesthetic, lets you mark out POIs without having your view cluttered with waypoints, doesn't show information that you couldn't get yourself, and really meshes with the base game's way of doing things. Map Atlases also gets my seal of approval as a very handy way to keep track of your world.
If you want a mod like optifine that has more compatibility try oculus for forge it does have some dependents like rubidium, oculus also let's you use shaders.
@user-ri3jt7vc3k Too many to list here unfortunately but I'm working on a video that covers my current mod list I use for videos (mods/resourcepacks and shaders). Should hopefully be within the next week or two!
my personal must have list - sodium(does minecraft even run without that ?), lithium, xaeros world map, jade, JEI. and if i play solo i add at least. searchables, FTB essentials, waystones, sophisticated backpacks.
If you want to use a gravestone mod but feel it makes things too easy, get a zombified player mod, the one i have(probably just called zombified player) summons a zombified version of your skin with all of your stuff, its also named so it won't despawn(i think), adding extra challenge but also giving you more time to retrieve your items
@Eianex That's from the camouflaged creeper texturepack! Adds many cool creeper variants like that www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/camouflaged-creepers
That’s the greatest mod video I’ve ever seen, btw i have a question which is the mod that you used in most of the clips which display a brown book near the crafting grid in the inventory panel??
@ninopecoraro2654 That would be the Better Recipe Book resourcepack. www.planetminecraft.com/texture-pack/better-recipe-book/ Glad you enjoyed this video! :D
@@CrittersModMenagerie Oh thanks, another question, i've search for the mod on minute 27:48 who chenge potion's texture, but all the mods/resource packs that i've fount weren't the same, can you please tell me how it's called??
great video man! I have a question about these mods though. Some of these mods only make minor changes to the game. Will having more small mods decrease the performance over a big mod the does more?
That's hard to answer. A bigger mod would have more impact but conversely, smaller mods that are made from different modders would have varying levels of impact; some minimal, others more profound. At the end of the day, it depends on your preference, whether you prefer all the features in one larger mod, or have multiple smaller mods that have a handful of the features of a bigger mod. See how it goes and whether you have any major performance changes to your game.
I noticed at 16:01, the creeper texture looks different. Is that just the shaders doing that, or is it a texture pack, and if so, could I have the link? It looks quite nice

@@Lily-zk1ic
Sodium for Fabric, or Emmbedium and other forks for Forge
@@Ajajdh2 Sodium is the best mod ever
Not saying you’re wrong, but it’s funny to think that this or any other Optifine slander probably wouldn’t have been said if stuff like Rubidium, Sodium, etc. wasn’t released.
Also, it should be said Optifine is generally still considered the best performance enhancing mod for earlier versions of Minecraft.
@@forthelolz1121 it isn't slander, because it's true. Slander means it's a lie. Also, it was inevitable for these problems to become more apparent as the larger modding community got massively better at making stable compatible, and legally acceptable mods, while optifine got *worse*
I have seen 10+ mod videos and haven't even cared to like the videos but this one is great. Totally beginners friendly. Thanks.
Thankyou! One of those videos to help start with modded Minecraft
@@CrittersModMenagerie Those performance mods are amazing. I obviously knew a few but had no idea there were plenty more which actually boost performance or reduce lags(I am using Bliss/Complementary shaders, mods really helped out to give that little boost and give lower load to CPU).
Other sections are really good. Whoever grabbed MC for this sale and likes to mod should refer to this video.
Man, you're the best, the first video i watched from yours is the iron jetpacks mod 1.19.4, and the editing got a little bit better, keep it up!
@Techcactuss Always striving for that 1% improvement in the videos. Thanks for tuning in and for your kind words! Crazy to think that video was almost a year ago already
wow this is super well put together! all the stuff you put on screen is very helpful.
@cinnamoncat8950 Cheers! Pleased to hear that the video was helpful!
I just uploaded my first survival series, if you could check it out and let me know what you think!!
Probably the best video for new players using mods
best video ever, first time seeing a mod list video with details like this
keep it up
Thanks!
I don't usually comment, but this is probably the best, most professional and useful mod showcase video I have ever seen. Congrats!
Thankyou mate! :D
Update: A lot of UA-camrs use it without complaining, It has features that make it easy for me and my tech illiterate friend, I don't care about the micro transactions, Please stop commenting how I should use something else, I'm good. I'm saying this with Peace and Love, no more replies to this comment, thank you.
I would add that there's a mod called Essential Mod, that adds a social messager to talk, share screenshots, customize your player model, and even freely play a single player world online with friends, again, for free! No enough people talk about it, it does everything Bedrock does, but better, because the money is going to a nodding team and not a multi billion dollar company.
Heard some stuff about Essential, but didn't realise it did all of that. Thanks for the headsup!
@@CrittersModMenagerie Yep, one of the best things I've found for Minecraft. Makes playing with my best friend on modded packs free and easy to use, as well as having a better connection then any other service I've used. It needs to be talked about more.
they do some sketchy shit though like stealing code I think.
@@beepymemes got any proof on that? And if you say to search it up myself, I swear to piss...
The single player is very laggy if you have bad internet
Great work. Regarding gravestones, I'd like to bring Quark Oddities to consideration; it adds a lot more than graves, though every feature can be toggled off as it integrates with Quark, but it does have my personal favourite implementation with its totems of holding. They are entities that float and have animations instead of blocks or static corpses, which makes them well visible without feeling like a blemish on the landscape, and they're fun to interact with since they have you punch them repeatedly. They're fairly configurable, with options to have them break after a duration or to choose whether other players can take items from your totem, making them fit for any multiplayer scenario. Plus, Quark Oddities is already very common in mod packs, so it saves having to include another mod.
This video is amazing for creating a modpack! everything is explained. alternatives are mentioned.very well done!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
This one is so high quality video I freaking love it, thank you bro
Glad you enjoyed this! :D
This video definitely saved me some time as I've been trying to make a list of vanilla plus mods. Also great editing dude :P
Btw, could you mention what shader pack you were using? The double layered clouds looked amazing.
@ozzie2954 Glad this helps you out with finding those mods!
Most of the video uses Nostalgia Shaders V5 set at Ultra settings. Those clouds do look awesome!
@CrittersModMenagerie thanks dude :)
An actually useful modpack video! Those were super useful and the video was put together very well! Kuddos!
Glad that you found it helpful! :)
Great video, you've earned my subscription. Keep up the good work!
Thanks mate!
I like this video style. Feels unique compared to other mod showcases.
Wanted to make sure each mod showcase I do is different in some form from other videos. Glad you enjoyed it!
One I really like is the seasons mod, it's not a big mod but it adds so much weight to the passage of time in a world. Especially if you add a form of temperature mod that makes it during winter times or super times you need to wear appropriate clothing. Much like a good number of RPG games
Goated video. I wish I saw this when I made my modpack, would've saved me literal hours of researching myself!
Cheers mate! Well whenever you plan to make another pack in the future, you now have this to speed things up! :D
Bro is like a documentary Narrorator person cause he is saying and giving so much info about it he just earned a sub
Great video! I started to play minecraft modpacks this year and I can tell you, this will help me a lot to create my own modpack.
Thanks! I'm pleased this will serve as a good start for your modpack.
I love the Corpse mod, so another thing worth noting is the fact that you can change how long the corpse lasts. By default it lasts forever, but you could make it last for only an hour, for example. I think you can also toggle whether or not it can be destroyed by lava.
Indeed, the corpse can be configured to last longer and whether it can be destroyed by lava. Likewise, I really like the Corpse mod!
first video of ur channel im watching but only seeing the first minute I know its gonna be a high quality video so im gonna grab some popcorn, enjoy the show and be grateful for this mod collection video. I love these
Glad you enjoy these and welcome! Hope the popcorn was tasty! 🍿
This one is well researched and good at explaining, deserves a like for sure!
Many thanks!
Thank you for this amazing and comprehensive overview!
No worries!
Fantastic video! This helped me whitelist some mods for my community server. Thank you so much!
Glad it could be of some help! Hope your community server goes well!
Great video! I would also suggest The Immersive Music Mod for the "Quality of Life" mods. It's very early in development, but it's the highest quality ambient music mod on the scene right now.
I just uploaded my first survival series, if you could check it out and let me know what you think! Appreciate you!
Interesting mod! I'll need to listen to some of those tracks sometime
You can install both JEI and EMI together, JEI will be hidden and share its library with EMI for better mod integration
Fantastic Video, so soooo well put together.
Re-made my minecraftalongside your other videos
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed this!
For item/recipe viewing, you can use EMI with JEI and some of the addons also work. It's good because some of mods in my modpack work only with EMI and other only with JEI/REI.
This is incredible and exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Glad this proved helpful!
I only started playing Minecraft three days ago. I'm not really familiar with this game but I instantly fall in love with Minecraft Create series by Mr Beardstone but his modpack uses Forge and my device suffers from performance issues with this modloader so I switched to Fabric because a lot of online sources says it was a lighter modloader or something and i can actually feel the difference between the two.
I wasted half of a day to look for alternatives to replicate his modpack into fabric and fortunately i manage to port 80% of it.
Thanks to mod makers!
Thank you very much for your video it will definitely help those who are new to the modding scene.
No worries, I hope it serves as a good resource to those starting modded Minecraft!
Mischif of Mice made a base template I like to use for making personal mod packs, and these are some excellent additions to my template now when I make new worlds to explore in!
Woah dude! Seriosly, you video is a truly cinematic piece of art!😃
Cheers mate! :D
I already know and plan to use the vast majority of these mods, but it's not every day that you come across a well-edited, structured, no TSS, and above all, entertaining video. Subscribed already. Just a quick question, did you use any animation mod/pack for this video.
EDIT: After a closer it actually looks like it's mod, probably Real Camera.
@gustavomalvestiti8865 Glad you enjoyed the video! It was one of those video types where you know most of the mods in it, but I think it was beneficial to have a video that presents all those mods in the once place to easily view them.
Yes, I have First Person Model mod installed, which is an alternative to Real Camera
not really a modpack creator, but this video is very well put together and easily understandable. good job!
Thanks!
29:52 This is a must have for me.
I first used it in a mod pack that I quit after a few hours but realized I couldn’t go back to not having it so I had to make my own custom pack just to include it.
what is the mod that adds layers to short long grass iin some of the your clips
@ninenezumi I believe it's from the Foliage + resourcepack.
modrinth.com/resourcepack/foliage+
Nature X also adds a ton of vegetation and awesome nature features
@Escape_The_Matrix_ That's also a nice resourcepack too!
For forge 1.7.10 Angelica is an unoffical backport of sodium/embeddium! Also has culling improvements and Lumi is a forge mod like phosphor for older versions
Awesome to know those performance features are available in older versions! Was wondering if there was some backport of Sodium in 1.7.10 myself. Thanks for the info about these mods
Great video, just what I was looking for, thanks.
No worries! :)
I like droplight/loot beams, makes it easier to see dropped items.
Awesome video.
Have you planned making similar videos for mods itself, with different themes?
Those themes could stretch out the whole video and showcase different mods for similar ideas, like create and AE2 for automation, or different world gen mods
The closest video to something like this was an 'Essential' MC mods for multiplayer, basically this but multiplayer specific mods which wouldn't be worked on in a while if I did do it.
Beyond that, I remember trying out a Mods to Overhaul the Trails and Tales Update when 1.20 mods were coming in but I kind of fell off it doing the script. Also have other video ideas in a similar vein to this, but haven't really looked into them.
I would add Sophisticated Backpacks and Storage too. This backpack mod is so useful while traversing the world. Its size is huge and the upgrades it has are convenient
a LOT of amazing mods, thank you so much, but I do have 1 note; Have you ever heard of the delightful mod called Mouse Wheelie? it's a lot like mouse tweaks and inventory tweaks but a little less bulky, it doesn't span everything those mods can do but it does touch upon a lot of what they're capable of.
No worries! I have not heard of Mouse Wheelie, by the sound and look of it, seems interesting. Will have to take a loot at it sometime!
Outstanding. Thank you.
You're the best, it helped me tremendously
Thanks so much! very clean and informative video!
No worries :)
Omg damage indicators, I remember seeing that mod in SO many old minecraft modded videos
Quite an iconic mod, crazy how long ago that time was when it was all over the old mc videos
earned a new sub, very useful vid 🙂
Shootout to Forgery/Fabrication, a huge collection of fixes, tweaks and balance changes for vanilla minecraft that's fully customizable and replaces many mods by itself.
Also the many mods by Someaddon. He has many performance enhancing mods and general fixes, along with some tweak mods.
@BVasquezp Thanks for mentioning those! Never seen Forgery/Fabrication before, it would have fit quite well with this video.
Quite a few nice mods from Someaddon to enhance and fix the game too. Always mods to discover with a game like this
@@CrittersModMenagerie Glad to help. Perhaps you could do a followup video? there are a few extra mods going around that I consider essential.
Here are a some from my current mod setup:
- Async locator
- Chunky
- Sinytra connector (Requires Forgified Fabric API) + Connector Extras
- Clumps
- Better third person
- Cycle switcher
- Entity texture features
- Entity model features
- CIT Resewn / Forge CIT
- Let me despawn
- Mobtimizations
- Modern Fix
- No telemetry (functionality included in Debugify, but this one works in Forge 1.20.1)
- Paper doll
- Stylish effects
- Yung's Traveler Titles
Also I'm waiting for Better Biome Blend to update to 1.20.1, but it covers 1.19 currently.
@BVasquezp Could be something on the cards, depending on general reception. Thanks for this list too!
Modern Fix and Clumps I actually already covered in the video, but the others are good suggestions too for a potential video
This could also be taken as a list of quality of life changes that minecraft might want to consider adding to the base game. Some could reserved to creative mode and some would need to be tweaked to considerably to fit the vanilla feel. But mouse tweaks and swing through should just be in the game.
Honestly, I consider most minimap mods a cheat. A lot of them let you see things that you couldn't without them, like x-raying caves and features underground, or showing you where mobs are at all times. That's why Antique Atlas has always been my gold standard for mapping. It's got a nice aesthetic, lets you mark out POIs without having your view cluttered with waypoints, doesn't show information that you couldn't get yourself, and really meshes with the base game's way of doing things. Map Atlases also gets my seal of approval as a very handy way to keep track of your world.
antique atlas is a cool non-cheat map
If you want a mod like optifine that has more compatibility try oculus for forge it does have some dependents like rubidium, oculus also let's you use shaders.
Incredible video bro thanks a lot, i used 15 of the mods and my gameplay is too much better
love this ❤ subscribing
Thanks mate! Welcome
chickens dropping feathers. This is something they all need.
Such a useful video, thank you!
@Zeerua Glad you found it helpful!
you didn't mention it but despite not having a compat mod like REI, EMI can have JEI installed underneath it so you can use its addons in addition.
I did forget to mention that, it is a neat addition to enhance EMI, thanks for mentioning that!
Finally a good mod list video, tyx, good work, also, which resource packs did u use?
@user-ri3jt7vc3k Too many to list here unfortunately but I'm working on a video that covers my current mod list I use for videos (mods/resourcepacks and shaders). Should hopefully be within the next week or two!
great and very useful video!!
Antique Atlas is the GOAT of map mods
my personal must have list - sodium(does minecraft even run without that ?), lithium, xaeros world map, jade, JEI. and if i play solo i add at least. searchables, FTB essentials, waystones, sophisticated backpacks.
Don't forget emi has included jei compat so you can stick it in a pre-existing mod pack with many add ons and custom recipes.
That's true, I missed that part!
Thanks a lot, great video !!! :)))
Holy cow, Antique Atlas my beloved!
Antique Atlas is exactly what I needed!
which mod adds the Elytra enchantment "Ascending" from 27:39?
@teippeo That's from the More Enchantments mod! www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/more-enchantments_
18:55 what shader is that the water is beautiful
Nostalgia Shaders V5
@@CrittersModMenagerie alr cool thx
Filler skip: 1:08
Tnx
This is a great video ! Can you tell me how you managed to get the orb experience tooltip at 11:18 ?
That's from Pick Up Notifier, one of the mods that are featured near the end of the video
If you want to use a gravestone mod but feel it makes things too easy, get a zombified player mod, the one i have(probably just called zombified player) summons a zombified version of your skin with all of your stuff, its also named so it won't despawn(i think), adding extra challenge but also giving you more time to retrieve your items
Is there a map mod that allows you to mark maps? Like how people make giant wall maps in their base, but making those easily markable?
There's none that I know of specifically that does it unfortunately.
18:40 What a good looking Creeper texture! Anyone knows where to find it?
@Eianex That's from the camouflaged creeper texturepack! Adds many cool creeper variants like that www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/camouflaged-creepers
19:00 it's not Me Gane, it's Meh Gah Neh which is japanese for glasses
My apologies! Didn't realise that's how the mod name was pronounced. Thanks for letting me know
That’s the greatest mod video I’ve ever seen, btw i have a question which is the mod that you used in most of the clips which display a brown book near the crafting grid in the inventory panel??
@ninopecoraro2654 That would be the Better Recipe Book resourcepack. www.planetminecraft.com/texture-pack/better-recipe-book/
Glad you enjoyed this video! :D
@@CrittersModMenagerie Oh thanks, another question, i've search for the mod on minute 27:48 who chenge potion's texture, but all the mods/resource packs that i've fount weren't the same, can you please tell me how it's called??
@@ninopecoraro2654 Shrimp's Distinct Potions Resourcepack that is
I cannot play without farmer's delight, that shit makes my mouth water
great video man! I have a question about these mods though.
Some of these mods only make minor changes to the game. Will having more small mods decrease the performance over a big mod the does more?
That's hard to answer. A bigger mod would have more impact but conversely, smaller mods that are made from different modders would have varying levels of impact; some minimal, others more profound. At the end of the day, it depends on your preference, whether you prefer all the features in one larger mod, or have multiple smaller mods that have a handful of the features of a bigger mod. See how it goes and whether you have any major performance changes to your game.
I noticed at 16:01, the creeper texture looks different. Is that just the shaders doing that, or is it a texture pack, and if so, could I have the link? It looks quite nice
