Description from the author on Modrinth

A minimalist modlist that only offers the bare essentials for the modern Vanilla+ experience. This modlist contains very few mods and its main purpose is to be easily updateable to newer versions and provide a base for further additions of mods.

Released and maintained for and by the MoonlitServer SMP Community.

Written by MoonlitLamps. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.

How to install Minimal Vanilla+

  1. This modpack runs on Fabric for Minecraft 26.x. The launcher you install it with sets that up for you.

  2. Download the .mrpack file from Modrinth.

  3. Open it with a launcher that reads .mrpack files, such as the Modrinth App or Prism Launcher: it makes a new instance with every mod and setting of the pack.

  4. Give the instance enough memory: most modpacks want 4 to 8 GB.

  5. To play it with friends on a server, use the server files of the modpack if its page offers them; otherwise install the same mods on the server.
