About
This modpack focuses on Complementary Shaders and Distant Horizons for extended render distance.
It adds a curated set of performance, visual and quality of life mods (map, HUD, voice chat, VR/controller support) while keeping vanilla gameplay and full compatibility with unmodded survival servers.
It is tuned for HeXHub.net, but works on most vanilla and Paper-based survival servers.
Core intent
- Complementary Shaders by EminGT enabled and preconfigured.
- Distant Horizons for long-range terrain.
- Only client-side visuals, performance tweaks and UI/QoL features, no gameplay changes.
- Helper mods such as the minimap are preconfigured for fair play, avoiding xray-like cave view, mob radar or similar unfair information.
- No freecam-style spectator mods included.
Settings policy
- Preconfigured: graphics, shaders, map and a few utility mods (per edition), so everything works out of the box without unfair advantages.
- Keybinds: only cleaned up to resolve conflicts between mods. Important vanilla and core mod keys keep their usual positions, less important mod keys are moved or unbound.
- Other options such as sound, mouse and general gameplay settings stay close to vanilla defaults.
- Your Options Shall Be Respected (YOSBR) keeps your own settings on updates. Pack defaults are only applied on fresh installs or when a mod is added and its config does not exist yet.
