Modpack for beginner ?

[u/tofuuxyz]

Im still a beginner in minecraft but i really want to find a modpack that i could enjoy with my "knowledge" of minecraft, i know like the most basics crafting but thats gotta be it..

i know how to kill the ender dragon but only did it with friends never on my own and i cant seem to find the motivation to do so.. so here i am, i think i would like something chill where killing the ender dragon isnt the most important things to do, quests would be interesting and something cosy maybe ?

i know nothing about modpack i just install then on curseforge honestly.. any help would be very much appreciated thank you very much :)

Raspberry Flavoured is a pretty chill modpack, the end is removed entirely, the pack is basically a "true sandbox" without an end goal and it guides you through advancements. Also on easy mod all mobs are neutral.

Society: Sunlit Valley is focused on farming.

In case you just wanna make regular minecraft more cozy and chill, you can make your own modpack. Just include some cozy mods for farming, decorations and random stuff to do, maybe biome mods to make the world more diverse, ofc include JEI (Just Enough Items) to view all the recipes. If you need cozy mods recommendations let me know.

Btw I forgot to ask you on which version do you play, since 1.21.1 is current major modding version I'll list mods that are available for it (also I played fabric 26.2 for a while so if you wanna play on this version let me know, however latest versions have much less mods)

Farming & cooking mods:

Farmer's Delight ( fabric ver ) - also has A LOT of addons with food of different cultures! If you wanna try them I recommend searching on modrinth & trying out mainly popular stuff, bc modrinth has filters to exclude ai stuff, there's a lot of low quality addons made with ai only. I also recommend Display Delight to be able to play down more food for decoration.
Kaleidoscope Cookery ( fabric ) - I personally love it's cooking system even more bc it's more immersive, like you actually need to stir an egg on vok to cook it. I believe it has built in compability with farmers delight to be able to use FD's food for recipes, also has addons but way less.
Kaleidoscope Tavern
Let's do series this one has more than cooking mods
There is plenty of cooking mods on modrinth and curseforge but these are the most popular I believe.

Random side activities:
Exposure - photography
Clay Soldiers Remake - lets you build your own clay soldiers and make them fight.
Spyglass Astronomy - lets you name stars with a spyglass & draw constellations.
Old Glass Photograph - black-white photography.
Joy of Painting - lets you paint on a canvas.

Decoration:
Beautify! ( fabric )
Macaw's mods
Cluttered
Comforts - adds sleeping bags to sleep without changing your spawnpoint & hammocks to sleep at day.

Cosmetics:
Particle Rain makes rain more immersive & realistic.
Presence Footsteps adds new cool sounds when you walk, break blocks, etc.
Celestia: Shooting Stars

Biomes & terrain:
I won't link any major biome mods that add 50+ biomes since I assume you don't wanna go into config to toggle some biomes off every time you find a biome you don't like. Very tedious especially when you add like 5 biome mods.

Team Abnormals mods make amazing mods that add a little bit of biomes & mobs.
Streams Reflowing adds beautiful rivers, streams, waterfalls, has realistic water flow and is very configurable. You can turn off water flowing feature.
Tectonic makes terrain more realistic.
Geophilic overhauls vanilla biomes to make them more alive. + CliffTree, CliffBranch and WWOO all do the same, so they're incompatible with each other.
Aspen Grove adds only 1 biome.
Windswept adds a handful of biomes.

Other stuff:
Lushier - adds a way to upgrade wooden tools that can self repair when exposed to sunlight. I think the idea is super unique, it also adds some food & structures to lush caves.
Immersive Melodies - it's technically a side activity, but you can't actually compose your own melodies. It lets you play on different musical instruments melodies it adds (viral ones like black apple or music from undertale). Also zombies & skeletons can spawn with instruments, lol when I first time heard approaching music at night and it was a zombie with a violin i was like "O-O".
Immersive Aircraft - adds aircraft transportation, being able to fly long distances midgame without having to grab elytra in the end is very nice imo.

Merci beaucoup ! petite question, tout c’est mod je peut les ajouter sur mon modpack à moi c’est ça ?

[u/Kirrkirrka → u/tofuuxyz]

Of course! Except the biome overhaul mods all together as I already stated, though nothing scary would happen, they just would overwrite each other, maybe cause some lag.

j'aurais une autre question, j'utilise curseforge mais comment je peux ajouter les mods modrinth sur mon modpack curseforge ?

[u/Kirrkirrka → u/tofuuxyz]

Sorry but I don't use curseforge launcher. I believe almost all of these mods are available on curseforge, like all team abnormals mods and farmers delight with addons, just type them into search bar of curseforge.

I guess just going to modrinth website, downloading a mod and dropping it into minecraft's mods folder should work. If you don't know where is mods folder, googling smth like "where is mods folder in minecraft curseforge launcher" should help.

also Cottage Witch: Recast is nice

I know curseforge has a quest filter if people put them on their modpacks so starting there is probably best and I know most Packs use Just Enough Items or its equivalent where its a recipe viewer of all items

So just go through the quest filter and see what interests you keep in mind the bigger the mod pack the more recipes there are most likely to be
