Quick answer

Which VanillaQOL release should I use?

Updated 2 years ago
Latest stable file VanillaQOL 1.3.0
Game version 1.21
Loader Fabric 0.16.0

VanillaQOL 1.3.0 is a complete pack release for 1.21 with Fabric 0.16.0. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. 17 mods in this pack file.

Pack setup

How should I set up VanillaQOL for players and a server?

Use VanillaQOL 1.3.0 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.

Client instance Install VanillaQOL 1.3.0
Dedicated server setup Match VanillaQOL 1.3.0
Pack loader Fabric 0.16.0

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.

Referenced mods 17
Client only 0
Server only 0
Not labelled 17

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 VanillaQOL?

VanillaQOL 1.3.0. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.

17 mods in this pack file

The selected pack release is VanillaQOL 1.3.0. That file is for Minecraft 1.21 with Fabric 0.16.0. It contains 17 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.

About this project

What kind of pack is VanillaQOL?

Welcome to VanillaQOL

The purpose of this modpack:

I wanted to make a simple modpack to easily download my favourite optimizations and quality of life changing mods, texturepacks/shaders.

Included shaders and texturepacks:

  • Complementary Reimagined
  • Default Dark Mode
  • Using Resourcify you can browse/add/update texturepacks and shaders ingame!

If you have issues starting the game:

  • Make sure to disable RTSS (RivaTuner Statistics Server) to make this modpack work (Sodium issue).
  • Update drivers (especially GPU)

Additional mods that can be useful:

  • Mouse Tweaks - Slightly better mouse usability
  • Controlify - Adds controller support
  • Controlling - Keybinds stuff

My preferred settings:

Java memory:

  • 6144MB

Video settings:

  • FOV: 90
  • Brightness: 100 (Bright in Sodium)
  • VSync: OFF
  • Max Framerate: 60/150 depending on device
