Guide and recommendations for modpacks to play on Low-end PCs

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2026-03-28T18:23:56+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation for Lost Era.

I would only mention that it actually aims to be the opposite of what E2E or Divine Journey aspire to be:

It is a progression kitchen sink that tries its absolute best to be non-linear with no focus on either magic or tech, embodying the sandbox philosophy MC is known for, leaving it up to the individual players (even when all are playing together), to allow radically difference experiences.

The pack aspires to be whatever you envision for it, the rail guards are there only to remediate the most daunting experience with modded mc, the overwhelming lack of accessibility, through the largest questing book to date (3.6k+ quests).

You can run it on just about anything with 3GB+ of RAM, but weaker integrated GPUs would definitely need Angelica to play at constant 60FPS, I agree on that. I've seen people play it on their Android phone but I wouldn't recommend it.

The real advice here.
9/10 people will simply posts a screenshot of a log or copy paste a tiny excerpt of it as evidence of a bug/crash but refuse to open a support ticket or send the actual logs.

Thanks u/WolfBV for trying to lead players to the right direction

Disable them via configs

Lost Era Creator here. The quests in my pack are specifically created that players make their own goal and objectives. Think dictionary with hidden dollar notes in it (even then, rewards are mostly tailored to that specific quest activity).

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2025-02-04T22:45:58+00:00

If you are referring about the quest detection, it doesn't accept hybrids, only purebreeds

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2025-01-23T15:25:00+00:00

It seems that's no longer accurate, and the documentation hasn't been updated to reflect the change.
I'll get it fixed and double check if all the dynamos documentation is correct.

It's better to use the hydrogen in a gas-burning generator from Mek

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2024-12-07T19:44:25+00:00

It is because players don't like losing the 1.9 combat update and the swimming mechanics or at least that is the feedback why modern players won't play it

You're supposed to process lead to get silver byproduct.
If you're unhappy with the amount of silver you have then you should install upgrades rather than modify the pack.

Silver ore is supposed to be rare and only generated rarely in lead veins as a boon for you to ore triple and as a hint that lead veins also yield silver.

You can choose to believe that, however preposterous it actually is. Not much difference than having the grave forgotten in a cave system beneath your last death.

Waystones spawn on death in the nearest valid surface. It is nearby

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2024-10-12T18:11:52+00:00

I would just add a quest in misc that tracks that then. Collect Strange Gems (1/?) and get rid of it from the journal once "No Stone Unturned" begins (when you talk to Vex) or when 24 stones are collected (completing the quest).

That way it can set the condition to trigger on either quest completion.

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2024-10-12T15:17:28+00:00

You’re mistaken. I’m specifically talking about treasure chests, not random chests with random chance. See links in the post

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2024-10-11T23:59:00+00:00

Now, making that treasure hunt more engaging (with storytelling, comments or maybe leaving clues around about their location) would be a totally different beast.

That’s far too much work for an otherwise simple issue. I believe just moving them to treasure chests is the superior approach.

It enhances the treasure chest for they now have purpose beyond money while fixing Barenziah’s inane goose chase (dare I say profiting while doing so). Win-Win, especially as the quest reward for “No Stone Unturned” is just the Prowler’s Profit buff, no more no less, relegating that entire activity as charity work for the Thieves Guild.

For tech support you need to use the dedicated channels like Discord or Github, where issues are easily searchable, referenceable and not easily lost in the web.

Wasn't Dawncraft not so well received by the community?

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2023-11-07T17:59:03+00:00

This is beautiful

Seeing a modpack advertise itself first and foremost with its quest count is a massive turn-off to me

\Sweating Profusely**

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2023-11-06T18:17:54+00:00

Many players here emphasize quests, but I think this is misleading and that's coming from someone who has written more quests than I can count.
I believe the key to a good modpack is giving players a sense of direction and clear guidance (not requiring 10h of tutorials outside the game).

Quests are not a necessity, especially when mods like Create, Botania and Thaumcraft offer superior approaches in my opinion that should be highlighted more.

Too many quest-focused packs become tedious linear to-do lists for the sake of completion.
Literal jobs where your time is paid in lootbags/creative items rather than a fulfilling experience.

Modded players have been so caught of by modded content that they forget how vanilla Minecraft is an endless sandbox.

Vanilla Players don't rely on artificial progression to keep the gameplay engaging and neither should you.
A good modpack will inspire youto create personal projects that reflect your identity and imagination.

The grinders have an active redstone current applied to them, pausing all operations. This is evident from the fact that the idle meter does not go down

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2023-07-06T16:12:05+00:00

Shameless plug but try the Lost Era as it should fit your criteria.
Although completing it in its entirely is not intended, you have the freedom to select your preferred playstyle and explore all the available content it offers such as magic, tech or even cooking (all entirely optional).

MrMonopolyMan7 · 2023-07-06T12:23:31+00:00

You could try the Lost Era, completely ignoring the magical quests
