The Fresh Experience
A fun Vanilla-Styled Modpack that Revamps the Survival Experience using Additive as a base for Awesome Performance
About this Modpack
This modpack combines various vanilla-friendly mods that make the overall experience feel like a revamped version of the vanilla game. From overhauling key game mechanics to adding some new ones, the overall experience is different, but still is Minecraft at its heart.
It is based on many games I find interesting, like the Dark Souls games and Sea of Thieves. It also uses the Additive Modpack as a base for better performance.
Definitely a fun modpack to play with friends to bring the magic of Minecraft back into the modern version.
P.S. If you want to play on a server, all the mods needed for the server are denoted by an [s]

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 The Fresh Experience 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.
The Fresh Experience 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.
