It focuses on Vanilla Gameplay, Accessibility, Discoverability, QoL, and Player Expression.
It's built on Quilt, and has Modrinth and Packwiz releases. Check out the Installation section below.
Tinkerer's Quilt is vanilla world compatible, with no new items, blocks, or worldgen.
Instead, this modpack:
- Guides players through vanilla with in-game quests and info - no wiki required.
- Enhances game Quality of Life improvements for accessibility and smoother gameplay.
- Makes the game easier with simplified gear crafting, reduced death penalty, and helpful quest rewards.
- Encourages player expression with better skins, origins, and more ways to build.
TQuilt is not a client or minimalist pack! It has ~120 mods and should be installed on both sides.

Homebrew

This modpack started in January 2021 as a skyrim-style "modding guide" - just throwing mods together and configuring them lightly.
But it quickly took shape when we realized people often struggle to get past the first half-hour of the game.
Turns out if you want a modpack to feel cohesive, feel good, and match a vision - you need to get your hands dirty.
We made six mods:
Portable Crafting Standalone - Press V or click a tab to use the crafting table in your inventory.
Totem Anywhere Standalone - Totem of undying convenience - uses totems from inventory.
Crunchy Crunchy Advancements - Hides and removes advancements - quests and EMI cover all you need.
Tinkerer's Statures - Allows choosing player height on spawn.
Origins Minus - A full set of origins optimised for simplicity, not balance.
Tinkerer's Smithing - Repair for no XP cost, lower repair cost with scrap, and upgrade tool materials.
Flattens mending power creep, encouraging players to keep "Sentimental" tools as much as they like.
Tool material upgrades cost the exact same as a fresh tool - but keep the enchantments.
Quicker tools with less junk - upgrade wood to stone to iron from the 2x2 crafting grid.
Switchy - Change your origin, skin, and more between presets with a single command.
Two data packs:
Tinkerer's Vegetarian (NBT) - recipes for potions, leather, books, and more, without killing passive mobs.
Tinkerer's Copper Beacons - Allows beacons made of unexposed copper blocks. A use for copper and wax.
194 quests:
just as much flavour text - queer humour, observations, and a weird mix of references.
1074 lines of quest descriptions - tutorials, explanations, and so on.
Meticulously symmetrical and grouped quest positioning. No, really.
And of course, configured ~125 mods:
You know - removing feature overlap, rebalancing mods,
rebalancing vanilla via tweak mods. (Shoutouts to Fabrication and Apathy)
Ruining everyone's life by shipping a default options.txt
file.
PR'ing improvements to mods. (does it count as configuration if you apply it directly to the source code?)
Reporting bugs to devs. (does it count as configuration if you "configure" the mod to work better by asking nicely?)
Headliner Mods
Click to Expand
All present minecraft modding is built on a decade of work from other people (and non-people, we don't discriminate).
Here's what others are bringing to this pack.
Player Expression
Letting players express themselves with player customisation, builds, and even farming and cooking, is core to TQuilt.
Mod | Description |
---|---|
Ears | Improved skins with support for tails, horns, ears, claws, wings and more species/gender things! |
Fabric Tailor | Swap your skin in-game. Great for plural systems. |
Origins | Choose an Origin, with abilities, limitations, and maybe some euphoria (we don't know you) |
Drogtor | Change player name, color, and bio (e.g. pronouns) any time. |
Presence Footsteps | Footstep audio redone - allows swapping between bi/quadrupedal, with winged options. |
Fabrication | A huge tweak mod, includes hiding armor and improvements for minecart networks. |
Carpet | Many server tweaks, includes more uses for dispensers, and more regrowables. |
Usability and Accessibility
Mod | Description |
---|---|
EMI | An advanced recipe book for learning how to craft and use any item. |
What The Hell Is That? | Hold alt to see information on the block or mob you're looking at. |
Notes | Allows players to take in-game notes about their plans, locations to revisit, etc. |
Reacharound | Build midair bridges without sneaking, and even downwards stairs. |
Project: Save The Pets! | Prevents pet harm and adds a pet revival system. |
Horse Buff | Improves and protects horses, making them easier to take out on adventures. |
Fabrication | A multitude of minor improvements, such as automatic block pickup and crawling. |
You're In Grave Danger | Leaves a grave on death with your items and XP that won't de-spawn. |
Apathy | Mobs are neutral on easy difficulty, and will only attack you if provoked. |
Visuals
Mod | Description |
---|---|
Sodium | Present-day holy grail of performance mods. |
Iris | Optifine-compatible shaders. We recommend Complementary or Super Duper Vanilla. |
Lucium | Improvements to Fancy graphics. |

Tinkerer's Quilt is designed to allow players to add their own mods.
Plus and Modded is us giving that a shot - but it's not ready for release yet.
The packwiz version is not save safe. Do not use the auto updater if you are keeping a save.
- Plus is a Vanilla+ extension of base, expanding on Godseeking:
- Homesteading - More farming/ranching, much more cooking, more building blocks, and more decorations.
- Exploration - More traversal options, new nether/end, new biomes, new structures, and a seasonal world.
- Combat - Spears, chef's knives, and... compact mechanically propelled halfdoors? Plus new dungeons.
- Modded uses TQuilt as a base for heavy content mods, like Botania, Create, Yttr, and Hephaestus.
