About this Modpack
This is a community modpack for the Alinea server that includes every mod recommended for it.
If you play on an other server with no enchantment limit this pack is perfect for you, because it removes the Too Expensive text from an anvil and has every useful mod when playing on servers.
If you play on a server with an enchantment limit, feel free to use this pack, because it is optimised for servers with custom content, but remove the "Anvil Too Expensive" mod from the pack.
The Mods:
Essentials
- Plasmo Voice - In-game proximity chat
- EMI - Show all items are their recipes in an inventory sidebar
- Mod Menu - View and configure mods
- Sodium - Greatly increase rendering speed
- Indium - Makes Sodium compatible with more other mods
- Starlight - Greatly increase chunk loading speed
- Krypton - Increase network speed
- Ferrite Core - Decrease RAM usage
- DashLoader - Near-instantly load the server resource pack
