Mike's Way

Mike's Way

You are a visitor to a strange land. Waking up at a gas station you look around and gather some provisions and bags before you set off into the world. You come across many forgotten ruins and abandoned cities. You gather supplies and get stronger.

What is Mike's Way?

Mike's Way is my own custom pack which features mods I particularly enjoy. Beyond that this pack is designed to work well as a whole, while focusing on community building with villagers.
There is a lot of loot and treasure to be found, though drop and spawn rates need to be balanced still. Explore! Look around! There's a myriad of new biomes and mobs to encounter!

The Story

You've grown up in a village in the shadow of an ancient ruin. To you these ruins represent a mysterious past which no longer exists.

You've grown up in the cold climates, with a small community to support you, strange and monstrous creatures prowl the deeps where you regularly fish. . . and sometimes you hear a strange song on the wind.
You've awoken alone in a place that feels both strange and familiar.

The story is yours, and through in game prompts you'll be able to establish and grow yours.

Minimum 6 GB, recommended 8 GB for stable performance. per 5 players. Important: Minecraft modpacks need more RAM than vanilla – plan extra per additional player. With Mado Hosting, you can scale RAM up live at any time without data loss (from €12/month).

Can I add custom mods to Mike's Way without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.20.1). Common issues: ID conflicts with recipe mods and incompatible coremod versions. The Mado dashboard mod browser only shows compatible mods and warns about known conflicts.
