About this Modpack
Mods make Minecraft more fun than it already is, but too much can get pretty chaotic. Some people may want a simple Minecraft experience but also want a handful of enhancements rather than full blown additions to the game.
Chocolate adds some personal preferences of mine to keep the original feel of Minecraft while also aiming to be more atmospheric in a few small ways. Nothing on the level of Vanilla+ or anything, just something simple to start with.
=SERVER SIDE=
I will get around to making a server file for manually importing the mods, but in the meantime you will have to manually remove mods that only work client-side. Apologies for the inconvenience.
