About this Modpack
DB's Minecraft REFINED is a new modpack created by disrtuptive builds for Minecraft 1.21. It's based on the DB's Minecraft Plus modpack, however all mods that alter the game have been stripped away in favour of mostly client-side only mods (with a few exceptions).

A REFINED VANILLA MINECRAFT EXPERIENCE
Every single mod and resource pack in this mod pack is aimed to polish the Minecraft experience, enhancing everything from the UI, QOL, sounds, building, structures, biomes and plenty more.
PERFORMANCE
Countless mods improve performance in almost every way possible from world generation and entity culling to memory usage and even the rendering of text in game.
EXPLORE
Blooming Biosphere overhauls existing biomes and adds several new ones, all without adding a single new block or item. Forests have fallen logs and taller trees, plains have bushes and plenty other features.
Explorify adds plenty of new structures in the vanilla style like campsites, dark forest settlements and taverns.
POLISHED UI
Plenty of mods enhance the UI, adding animations to opening and closing the inventory, moving items, smoothly scrolling inventories and plenty more.
DETAILS
Particle Rain overhauls the rain and snow, making it feel more natural. Deserts have dust storms instead of just nothing while it's raining.
3D crops, ladders, doors, vines, glow lichen, rails, lanterns and chains all for some added depth.
Spring Flowers & More Grass Heights add several variations to each flower and height variation to tall and short grass.
