Vulkan version - Description
Tries to be the most advanced modpack in terms of performance, utilities and improvements, always looking for new additions worthy to be done, from the 1.18.2 onwards, for Fabric and Quilt. If you are not intested in the Vulkan mod, check my other non Vulkan modpacks
Differs with the PEN version (without the +) adding the most comfortables utilities and improvements. If you are looking for a purist version (only the performance thing), you better download the PEN version.
Important
To enable Simple Voice Chat and AutoModpack mods
