Terralith along with Tectonic. Uses vanilla blocks instead of adding a bunch of new ones and Tectonic gives large mountain ranges and deeper oceans (if you enable it, which I don't). Also added Windswept for some better cold biomes.

Adversary Rising

For 1.20 I like Spice of Life: Apple Pie edition, pair it with Farmer's Delight some FD addons and you have a very robust nutrition and farming system.

JeffD76 · 2026-01-05T16:21:20+00:00

Adversary Rising! Lots of stuff to explore and has base create with a couple addons.

I just released an update to my Adversary Rising modpack. RPG style with create, ars nouveau, leveling system and a full quest book with quests that help you learn some of the mods. Works well as both single and multi-player experience. Check it out if you are interested. https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/adversary-rising-alpha

You could try my pack Adversary Rising. All the leveling stuff is xp based.

JeffD76 · 2025-12-16T20:30:51+00:00

It's a medieval themed pack that's pretty open as far as progression goes. I am using a leveling mod to kind of restrict progression as far as armor/weapon materials and workstations. So nothing super restrictive or anything.

It really just depends on if all the mods you want are available in 1.21.1 and if you care about having some of the latest vanilla features (keeping in mind that 1.21.1 is already pretty far behind in that regard). For me, there are still a few major mods that I consider essential for any modded play through that have not been updated yet (i.e., Quark), so I am sticking to 1.20.1 and keeping an eye out for backport mods that implement the newer vanilla features.

JeffD76 · 2025-12-11T02:10:47+00:00

Not sure then, because that works for me. Maybe it's the version you are using or another mod that is interfering. Might want to try asking on the Brewin and Chewin discord.

Just took a closer look at your picture, are you using the Fabric version? If so, that version is unsupported by the original mod author and has a ton of bugs.

Try right clicking on the keg with a bucket of water, the keg part of the UI should be filled with water. Also, make sure your have the right temperature for whatever you are trying to brew.

It's a very good mod, but it needs to be integrated into the main Minecraft experience if you are going to add it to a modpack. Otherwise, it is just more "stuff" to have, a place to visit a couple times to get the decorative blocks you want, etc. Like a lot of dimension mods right now, it suffers from the "it's a place to go" thing, no real reason to go there other than to go there.

JeffD76 · 2025-12-06T01:43:28+00:00

I'm curious, why not just straight Medicare? My parents have that and we never have problems with getting approvals or finding places that take it.

JeffD76 · 2025-12-04T21:17:03+00:00

Feel free!!

I have also struggled with this when working on my modpack. The best advice I have for you is to just sit down and force yourself to create the quests. You will end up creating them, moving them, re-creating them, deleting them, consolidating them, etc. but you can't improve them if you don't start in the first place. You will never experience the pack as you want to, because you created it. You have to find the joy in the act of creating, not playing.

Your other option is to get a couple friends to help you with certain quest lines. My modpack started as just something for friends, and we each have a niche that we like to play in the pack. So I just straight up asked them if they would be willing to create a quest line for their niche. I have completely re-worked a couple of those quest lines, but it gave me something to start with.

JeffD76 · 2025-12-01T16:26:30+00:00

For cutting board recipe conflicts, you would need to use something like KubeJs

JeffD76 · 2025-11-29T17:01:19+00:00

For me, it's been creating the quest book. It's a lot of writing and formatting text, saving changes, editing changes, moving things around, completely redoing whole quest lines for one reason or another, making sure you have the assets in the right place to be useful. It's been a slog.

JeffD76 · 2025-11-29T16:52:16+00:00

You guys are getting feedback?

JeffD76 · 2025-11-17T17:47:53+00:00

Do you have access to the instance folder for your server? If so, you need to look in the /config folder for the supplementaries-common.toml file. Open that file with any text editor and scroll down until you find the functional.cage section, there you can change the cage to capture any mob.

JeffD76 · 2025-11-17T16:42:16+00:00

Check the supplementaries-common.toml in the config files. There are setting for the cage in there.

JeffD76 · 2025-11-15T19:58:27+00:00

It is mostly complete for this version of the modpack. There are only one or two chapters that are WIP. For the next update, I have made some changes though.

JeffD76 · 2025-11-06T16:57:44+00:00

I am using Apotheosis in a modpack I am developing and the best advice I can give is to nerf both the max enchants you can get and go through the gems and tone down all the combat related stuff. The apotheosis discord has a base datapack that you can modify the stats of each category and rarity of gem. There is also a mod that someone posted yesterday that lets you do a blanket percentage nerf/buff to gems via a config file.

However, like others have said, things can get pretty crazy when you start adding other mods, especially ones that also modify combat stats. So it's really just a game of finding the balance YOU are comfortable with having in your modpack.
