About this Modpack

Title

This unique modpack features a lot of smooth animations and small additions to the vanilla experience of the game. It is also kind of supposed to be like Actions and Stuff. So it is not only new animations but also things like Sounds, Performance and Backpacks.

I first made this modpack because I really like Minecraft this way and I upload it so people that also like a Modpack like this also can play it!

Performance

There are a TON of performance mods in here. Also there is a light weight shader if you struggle with performance!

Animations

I added a couple Animations like holding items are being shown with "Hold My Items". Almost all of the mobs have new animations thanks to "Fresh Animations". Also the scrolling feels super smooth thanks to "Smooth Scrolling"

Additions

I also added few additions like a new Nether and a new End. There are also backpacks for when your inventory gets full. There are also Mods to help with the anvil and the enchanting table with making them easier. Also included is the Physics Mod but it is barely used...

Textures

There is also a resource pack loaded which is named "Whimscape". I really like the look of it you can ofcourse turn it off.

Shaders

Also enabled is a Shaderpack called "Complementary Shaders - Unbound". But theres also two other and one of them is for performance if you have trouble.

AND MORE!

Here are some images from ingame:

Frequently Asked Questions

Smooth Vanilla server crashes or won't start – what to do?

Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong fabric loader. Check latest.log for "OutOfMemoryError" → increase RAM to at least 8 GB. For "Mixin" or "ClassNotFoundException" errors: modpack version and loader don't match. With Mado Hosting, loader and Minecraft version are auto-configured on modpack install – preventing most startup issues.

How much RAM does a Smooth Vanilla server really need?

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 Smooth Vanilla without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.21.8). 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.

Smooth Vanilla server lagging – performance tips

1) Increase RAM to 8 GB+. 2) Reduce server view-distance to 8 (server.properties). 3) Pre-generate chunks with the "Chunky" plugin. 4) Use /spark profiler to check which mods consume the most tick time. With Mado Hosting, all servers run on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores – eliminating hardware as a bottleneck.
