As the availability and feature set of individual mods can vary between different major Minecraft versions, content and features in future or past versions of the DayOfMind modpack for other Minecraft versions may differ.

💡 Advanced Tip: Managing Worlds Across Major Updates

The world generation in DayOfMind is extensive and may receive significant updates between major versions of the modpack. If you're an advanced user looking to: * Smooth out chunk borders after an update, * Merge parts of an old world into a new one, or * Perform other advanced chunk operations, the **MCA Selector** tool can be very powerful. This is an external tool and its usage is optional, intended for specific scenarios. You can find a helpful tutorial on how to use MCA Selector here: * **Video Tutorial:** [How to Merge Minecraft Worlds | MCA Selector Tutorial](https://youtu.be/7vGIsrsqfkg?si=fjipBiEM6I4ena2B) Please ensure you back up your worlds before attempting any advanced modifications!

On top of this solid foundation, **Iris Shaders** allows you to add your favorite shader packs (like **Complementary Reimagined** or **Bliss Shaders**), transforming the game's lighting and atmosphere into something truly breathtaking. To see the performance benefits of Sodium: Extend your view distance dramatically with **Distant Horizons**: ### OptiFine Features, Fabric Performance Enjoy the visual customization many players love from OptiFine, but integrated seamlessly into the Fabric ecosystem for better performance and compatibility. **Continuity** brings beautiful connected textures for glass, bookshelves, sandstone, and more, along with support for emissive (glowing) textures. **Entity Model Features (EMF)** and **Entity Texture Features (ETF)** provide the magic behind custom entity models and textures, enabling resource packs like the included **Fresh Animations** to bring mobs to life with stunning new movements. **Entity Sound Features (ESF)** builds on this, allowing sounds to vary based on entity textures or models. Resource packs can also customize GUI screens thanks to **OptiGUI**, and **Polytone** unlocks deep customization of biome colors, map colors, lightmaps, custom sounds, particles, and much more, all through resource packs. ### Dynamic Effects and Personal Flair The world feels more alive with added visual details. **Visuality** adds subtle ambient particles like crystal sparkles and more noticeable effects when mobs are hit. **Particular** introduces beautiful 3D water splashes, leaves gently falling from trees, atmospheric cave dust, and charming fireflies. Show off your style with **Capes** and **Wavey Capes**, adding flowing capes compatible with various services. See yourself in action with **Not Enough Animations**, which adds improved third-person animations for actions like eating, rowing boats, holding maps, and climbing. And light up the darkness with **Sodium Dynamic Lights**, allowing torches and other light sources you hold to illuminate the world around you dynamically. ### Curated Resource Packs **DayOfMind** comes bundled with a selection of fantastic resource packs, enabled by default, to give you a stunning visual experience right away (though you can disable or change them as you wish!): *

Find and resolve keybind conflicts effortlessly with **Controlling**. Access configuration screens for nearly all mods through the convenient **Mod Menu** (supported by **ModMenu Badges Lib**). Plug in your favorite controller and play your way with **Midnight Controls**. Many mods in this pack utilize user-friendly config libraries like **Cloth Config** and **YACL**, often accessible via **Mod Menu**. ## Optimized for Fun: Performance Under the Hood We know that feature-rich modpacks can sometimes struggle with performance. That's why **DayOfMind** was built from the ground up with optimization as a core pillar. We want you to enjoy all the new content without slideshow frame rates! Working tirelessly behind the scenes is a suite of powerful performance mods: * **Sodium**: Replaces Minecraft's rendering engine for massive FPS gains. * **Lithium**: Optimizes numerous game logic systems like mob AI, physics, and block ticking. * **FerriteCore**: Drastically reduces memory usage by optimizing how game data is stored. * **C2ME (Concurrent Chunk Management Engine)**: Improves chunk generation, loading, and I/O performance by utilizing multiple CPU cores. * **ModernFix**: An all-in-one solution improving launch times, reducing memory usage further, and fixing various bugs. But that's not all! **DayOfMind** includes numerous other optimization mods targeting specific areas, such as **ImmediatelyFast** (immediate mode rendering), **Krypton** (networking stack), **Alternate Current** (Redstone performance), **Entity Culling** & **More Culling** (skipping rendering of unseen objects), **Noisium** (world generation), **Let Me Despawn** (mob despawning logic), and **FastQuit** for that faster return to the title screen. This comprehensive approach ensures the smoothest possible experience as you explore the vast world. ## Gameplay Twists and Unique Additions Beyond enhancing vanilla, **DayOfMind** introduces some unique mechanics and expands core systems for a richer gameplay loop. ### New Ways to Play Equip powerful new gear with **Accessories**, a framework allowing mods to add rings, amulets, belts, and more (includes compatibility layers for Curios/Trinkets items).

Travel faster on your carefully built paths using **Block Runner**, and never get stuck attacking through annoying tall grass again thanks to **Cut Through**. ### Enhanced Utility Blocks Core utility stations get much-needed upgrades. **Easy Magic** makes enchanting less frustrating by keeping items in the table, allowing rerolls, and offering more flexible bookshelf placement. **Easy Anvils** removes annoying repair cost scaling, lets you repair anvils, and provides a dedicated interface for renaming name tags freely. See your recipes come together on the **Visual Workbench**, which displays items placed in the crafting grid directly on the block. And manage your crafting grid more efficiently with **Crafting Tweaks**, adding buttons to rotate, balance, or clear the grid. ### Expanded Storage Solutions Organize your treasures with powerful new storage options that fit the vanilla aesthetic. **Extended Drawers** offers compact, high-capacity storage for large quantities of single items, complete with upgrades, locking, voiding, and compacting features. **Tom's Simple Storage** provides a networkable system with terminals to access all connected inventories and even craft directly from stored items.
