Overhauls and improves upon many aspects of the game while remaining faithful to vanilla gameplay.

Are you tired of playing massive modpacks that transform the game into something that no longer feels like Minecraft? Do you want a modpack that still feels like Minecraft, but carefully expands onto it to make it fresh again without compromising on the authentic vanilla experience?

Simple Vanilla Overhaul is a carefully crafted vanilla expansion, consisting of a selection of tried and tested mods, on top of my own mods and integrations created with this modpack in mind.

FAQ

Can I play this with friends?

You have two options:

1. Quick join: Use "Open to LAN", then send the IP address that gets printed out in the chat to your friends to connect to. This method uses e4mc.
2. Dedicated server: Download the server installer, put it in an empty folder, and run it. This will download all the required server files to the folder and you can then set up the server as usual. This method uses mrpack4server.

Is there a wiki or in-game guide?

There's neither a guide or a wiki. The features list on this page contains everything you need to know before starting the game. Some mods have their own advancement tabs which act as progression guidance of sorts (Farmer's Delight, Simple Smithing Overhaul).

Where can I ask for help or report an issue?

Either join my Discord server and ask in the #✨ channel, or open an issue report on the GitHub repository.
