About this project

What does Genesis Core add?

Genesis Core is the official lightweight compatibility helper for the Genesis lite modpack. It does not add gameplay content, blocks, items, mobs, dimensions, quests, or progression systems. Its purpose is to keep a small set of known compatibility fixes available while Genesis keeps its RPG, combat, origins, and exploration mods enabled. Current focus: Safer entity compatibility for combat-heavy gameplay. Origins to Epic Class class-selection handoff. Opposing Force client model-layer protection. Reduced Epic Class dash packet log spam. Genesis Core is intentionally smaller than Tiganj Core and does not include old structure overrides, quest experiments, Lore Master patches, or worldgen workarounds.
