G2's Vanilla Optimized
G2bb's custom modpack for optimizing and quality of life changes.
Quick answer
Which G2's Vanilla Optimized release should I use?
G2's Vanilla Optimized 1.21-3 is a complete pack release for 1.21 with Quilt 0.26.4-beta.1. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. 55 mods in this pack file.
Pack setup
How should I set up G2's Vanilla Optimized for players and a server?
Use G2's Vanilla Optimized 1.21-3 as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.
A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.
These numbers come from the pack file you chose. “Not labelled” means we don’t know which side it belongs on—not that it is safe everywhere. The file count is not a RAM estimate.
What are the server requirements for G2's Vanilla Optimized?
G2's Vanilla Optimized 1.21-3. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.
The selected pack release is G2's Vanilla Optimized 1.21-3. That file is for Minecraft 1.21 with Quilt 0.26.4-beta.1. It contains 55 mod projects. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

G2bb's Vanilla Optimized
G2bb's custom modpack with a wholistic view of optimization. This pack brings preformance, visual, and quality of life, and more improvements to the base game. Come check it out at Twitch.tv/G2bb!

This is my custom pack of essential mods for my way-of-play, it may not be perfect for you and for that reason I am sharing it with an open license to remix as you please! To be perfectly honest I am publishing this mostly for 2 reasons, to keep my modpack more standardized since I have been pretty much winging it each update up to this point, and to share my modpack with my friends, but I figured as I stream my gameplay and people often ask about what mods/shaders/resource packs I use I might as well share them here too. So what does this mod pack bring?
