[limpid crypt]

as above im looking to make a 1.19.2 horror modpack, anyone got suggestions for mods or datapacks that would go well with FTF?

[tight scaffold]

could def start with stuff like eyes in the darkness and hardcore darkness (if thats gotten a 1.19 port yet)

end of herobrine is also good but it will cause a lot of difficulties if you're planning to play long term (as itll mess around w farm animals and any villagers you keep)

enhanced celestials is good because it has a blood moon (and also a blue and harvest moon)

and then probably some zombie expansion mods- look into some of the ones ForgeLabs on yt has covered theres a lot of good ones

but esp the parasite mods

if youre looking to just flesh it out more too try better end and better nether + artifacts and the yungs better structures modset

[limpid crypt]

okay thank you

are there any datapacks you reccomend?

[tight scaffold]

i dont use datapacks much as i prefer modding

however some i do use are a lot of the vanillatweaks crafting tweaks

and if you want to make the game harder, get the vanilla tweaks Big Phantoms datapack

(it makes phantoms get bigger the longer you dont sleep, to the point they can one shot you)

[limpid crypt]

okay

[tight scaffold]

also try getting the cave dweller mod, since most of these mods above ^ are focused on the overworld surface

o7 have fun getting scared

[limpid crypt]

thanks, o7 to you also

i just checked and cave dweller is 1.19.3

thats unfortunate

[tight scaffold]

damn :(

and most ppl arent making backports now so no telling if op will make a 19.2 vers

[limpid crypt]

well i could either update everything to 1.19.3 but lose several mods or keep it at 1.19.2 but no dweller

[tight scaffold]

id say go for no cave dweller

[limpid crypt]

alright

[tight scaffold]

also i know a lot of ppl use it but if youre going to add weeping angels, dont add it without the spawn balance utility mod; in most vers of the mod the angels spawn WAYYY too much to the point it can crash ur game or make it unplayable

spawn balance util can help w that

[limpid crypt]

noted, i was planning on adding them, where do i get that?

[limpid crypt]

thank you

It kind of burns away my soul with the horror mods that wind up not feeling much like such.. Instead they're like miniboss encounters. Cave Dweller from what I've seen in videos at least seems more like an active obstacle. Most definitely the Weeping Angels cause holy crap they seem OP and endless.

However I'm not sure either what might be best for a horror experience. Maybe pushing out most of the "lived in" features from the game? (Stuff to remove Piglins, Villages, Most Illagers, etc - but keep anything abandoned)

[tight scaffold]

^ this too; it depends on what kind of horror ur going for

[limpid crypt]

alright got it

https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/the-man-from-the-fog is this any good?

[limpid spire]

If you want more of the "oh crap i'm (about to) be(ing) jumped" spooks (and/or combat) you might want some of the content such as the Dwellers, End of Herobrine, and other-such.

If you want more of the ominous empty feel, definitely seek to get rid of the stuff that makes it all "too lively" - From The Fog is the only thing I know atm which gets close to the "you are watched" experience.

[limpid crypt]

i want mostly the 2nd one but some of the first one aswell to keep me and my friends on edge

[austere karma]

you got any others? puttign a giant modpack together for myself haha

[limpid crypt]

real lmao

[austere karma]

I just want to be TERRIFIED

Like, I turn a corner, boom, entity

Kinda like the old creepypastas... Where you could break a block and get a sound effect, spoopy stuff

[limpid crypt]

same i wanna scare the shit outta my friends

[limpid spire]

Gotcha. I suppose a surface Dweller could be worth a shake.

If you want to remove villages, I'm trying this. I haven't confirmed whether villages disappear yet for sure on latest versions.
https://www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/no-villages/

What I can say is that I spawned in a plains and didn't see any village, just something from FTF.

[austere karma]

Speaking of FTF. Do I just need the mod? or do I need a datapack too

[limpid spire]

If you want to run it vanilla, just the datapack actually. You should be able to dump the zip in both resource and datapack alike. Just make sure it's in [both].

If you want the world-gen features, make sure to load it as part of the world creation.

[austere karma]

So ive never actually done a datapack. Where do I get the stuff for it?

[limpid spire]

It's on the website.. which..
i think is down..

[austere karma]

Sorry haha! Im an absoloute noob at minecraft

[limpid spire]

HOWEVER, we have a github at least.

[austere karma]

What mc version is recommended for man from the fog, FTF, etc?

[limpid spire]

For this example and because the site is down, Github will do.

Latest Versions should be fine. Dunno about older ones.
https://github.com/LunarEclipseStudios/From-The-Fog

Other than that, for say the "Remove Villages" you'll find something more easier to read.

[austere karma]

Alrighty, I downloaded the ZIP, Now what do I do O.o

[limpid spire]

For the FTF Zip, you want just the Datapack right? You can narrow it down to these. Should be in the vanilla folder I think?

[austere karma]

So I wanna create a new world then put that stuff in that new world?

[limpid spire]

You'd take the vanilla stuff, put it into a folder (or make it another zip? something like that) and then name it something before starting the world creation process.

Worst case scenario, see here.
