About this Modpack
Dreadlands Foundation Universe
The modpack aims to create an experience of an open-world which allows for many play-styles. Build a fully automated base, explore as you see fit, build and connect cities, or fight in adventure style bosses at your behest! Feel free to play as you want in every which way you like, as the range of options and interplay between mods has been curated to give you an experience in which you don't have to necessarily sacrifice one play-style or another, as you can freely choose between playing the game in an easy way all the way up to creating your own adventures or playing pre-made adventures alone or with friends.
This modpack is designed for players on the "Dreadlands Foundation" Discord server, found at:
https://mee6.xyz/en/dreadlands
We're a community which mostly dabbles in playing games within the "SCP" universe, however, we also have an off-time, relaxation based Minecraft modpack & official server, on which we often play together.
The download for the modpack is aimed at making things easier for our current & potential future members, allowing them to easily download the modpack and join us on our server at their perusal.
Note: I do not own any of the mods, shaders or texturepacks in this modpack, with the exception of the texturepack/fontpack called "MC Bahnschrift". Huge thanks to the developers and creators of these mods/shaders/texturepacks, as without them, this all wouldn't be possible. All rights go to the respective creators.
