Description
Tries to be the most advanced modpack in terms of performance, always looking for new additions worthy to be done, while covering the most versions as possible. Going trough Fabric, Forge, Neoforge and Quilt and from the 1.14.4 onwards.
Differs with the PEN+ version (with the +) because this has no utilities and improvements, has only has the performance thing. So if you are looking for not only the best performance but the best addition, you better download PEN+.
Important
Old versions WON'T RUN UNLESS you open them with Java 17
Versions prior to 1.17 (exluding Forge versions 1.14.4 • 1.15.2), must use Java 17, otherwise the game won't start.
How to cahnge the Java version in the Modrinth Launcher:
Select the Instance you want to run >>> Go to 'options' >>> Under the Java section, check 'override global Java instances' >>> Click on 'auto detect' and choose a Java installation that is in the 17.0 or newer.
If you don't see any:
Go to the general settings of the launcher (the gear) >>> Under the Java settings section, click 'Install recomended' next to 'Java 17 location' >>> Then do the previous steps.
To enable Simple Voice Chat and AutoModpack mods
You will have to port forward the following ports on the server:
Simple Voice Chat >>> Port: 24454. Protocol: UDP.
AutoModpack >>> Port: 30037. Protocol: TCP.
If you don't now how search for a tutorial. Yes, I know I'm not being helpfull over there but the thing is it varies on the server page. Join my Discord so someone may help you, Discord invite link.
