About this Modpack
This is intended to be a modpack that I made for me and my friends to play on, but i decided why not upload it and see if it'll go up, i think some people would think it is cool.
The modpack is made of only content added straight from Modrinth so it is 100% safe to use.
the first 8 versions are just removing and adding certain mods to make a better experience.
the modpack is highly unstable, performance heavy, and buggy, and it is intended to be run on a private server.
