something that I'd love for Minecraft to add is, simply an Atmospheric update, no new blocks, no anything, just a cosmetic update, like dynamic lights, player animations, twinkling stars in the sky, shooting stars etc.

Also, weather events and dynamic weather based on biomes etc. like, in Jungles it would rain more often, Savannas would have rain but almost never etc. In mornings, there'd be fog and occasional little droplets of water falling from trees etc. Snowstorms and Sandstorms would be things too, simply obstructing the player's vision.

I’m honestly surprised how well that shader fits into Minecraft, since most shader packs feel out of place imo. As for the rest of the list literally the only thing I would add if it was possible is Alex’s Mobs (aka the only reason I haven’t moved to fabric).

I love when people make their Perfect version of Minecraft. it’s so damn interesting because everyone has a type for what mods they add. You kept it very vanilla, there’s some large-stroke changes in generation, but I noticed no affecting large systems, or any balancing changes. You also seem to really appreciate the exploration aspect of the game.

Can I just say that I really appreciate the toned down intro?
In a sea of overedited and overhyped videos, this really stands out.

1:20 Some other nice ones include
- FerriteCore (at LEAST 1gb less ram used)
- Phosphor (lighting optimization)
- Ksyxis (I forget what he does)
- Krypton (networking optimization)
- DashLoader (caches for quick launch)

It makes it run so good on my laptop, even with shaders!! 🎉

I’m using a fair few of these mods too. I also have some alternatives and few others to suggest.
- regions unexplored (alternative world generation)
- towns and towers (alternative village improvement)
- chipped (adds a whole load of texture variants to a lot of blocks)
- double hotbar (self explanatory, incredibly convenient)
- ht’s treechop (a nice improvement for cutting trees)
- jade (provides information on what you’re looking at)
- dramatic doors (adds 3 tall doors)
- clumps (groups xp orbs to reduce lag)

I’ve spent many hours scrolling through mods so I’ve found a lot of interesting ones, far to many to put here.

1:50 For anyone looking for shaders, I personally think one of the most underrated (or at least one that I don't hear many people talking about) has to be AstraLex. It looks absolutely stunning, and has an outstandingly low effect on FPS.

Interesting that you'd use Better Nether and Better End rather than Incendium and Nullscape, considering those are by the same team as Terralith

So many of these mods look fantastic, but I honestly love the one that changes up the Creepers. All those different types look incredible! Spooky! Adorable!

It's a little thing, but it's nice that you phrased it as "_my_ perfect version of Minecraft", bc theres so many different reasons people play this game

Quick tip for anyone wanting to use these mods on forge! There is a mod for forge called sinytra connector that allows you to run 1.20.1 fabric mods on 1.20.1 forge. So no need to worry about swapping loaders.

I wish there was a flatland variation where it makes the surface flat at the normal sea level hight but keeps all the trees and structures and biomes and stuff with caves and oceans and stuff.

I definitely would like to see a survival series out of this modpack (if you can technically call it that)

[rob.andrew]

missed opportunity to call this “CRAFTING my perfect Minecraft version”

i really enjoyed this video. this is definitely a version i’d be interested in playing myself!

[nensha]

i would have added the naturist mod, the new mobs that mod adds look so good and fit in so perfectly. the bears, the deer, the birds, they all look so close to vanilla

[ipxtvfr]

More ambience mods you could add are Dynamic Surroundings, Effective, and Illuminations. Effective adds the splashes from mc trailers, aurroundings adds dynamic fog for weather and time, and illuminations adds fireflies and other effects.

And an extra mod for QOL is Essential, which lets you join singleplayer worlds like on bedrock.

[SwitchyWitch_]

one thing I've always wanted some mod to do is long (LONG) term events, stuff that you don't really notice until it becomes severe enough, like suddenly crops growing slower and eventually halting as it's simply way too hot and dry, before easing back into normal. It'd add something dynamic into the game that keeps you on your toes.
Of course it could be as simple as what I described or it could be something more severe like nights becoming longer for seemingly no reason (eldritch unexplainable shit hell yeahh)

[senv_n]

for me, playing with your genuine friends is the perfect Minecraft. i'm grateful yet regretful that i met them. now i'm longing for that comfortable and fun feeling when playing Minecraft.

[torbenschmeling]

I like your choices. For sound you could also add "Presence Footsteps". It's amazing.

[josephbartholomew]

A couple of simple suggestions: visuality, enhanced attack indicator, entity culling, mouse tweaks, more mobs, and guard Villagers. Honestly they are worth testing if you want to.
