MC Basics is basic client-side modpack for mc users. It contains some QOL changes and fixes to the main game.
It has a version for both Forge and Fabric, and can be installed and launched via Technic Launcher, Curseforge, or Manual Installation.
Because Forge and Fabric have different variations in mods, this pack may contain variations between the forge and fabric versions. I have notated these differences accordingly.
This pack also contains recommended shaders in all installations. I have gathered these via over many years, but this may lead some shaders to be outdated. I have linked the creators below if you would like to manually install the latest versions.
If you have any questions comments or concerns, reach out via the methods outlined below in the Contact section.
