also I want a final mod list, no removing / adding things after the world is generated..
so give me your best of best suggestions
So one i would suggest is one which wouldnt require mods, but plugins, https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/conxeptworks-model-engine-demo-1-16-5-1-20.106521/ can make custom models without actual mods, then you add in mythic mobs which enables ai, customization and can customize the spawn rates from it as well, this lets you have on its own 6 custom zombie shapes, which you can use mythic mobs to make 'difficulty' variations of each one(and scaling) which also enables alternative drops, these are for the mobs themselves at least to start

or
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/simple-voice-chat.93738/
for the simple vocie chat, first one i read in comments it has a player cap, the second one needs players to install on client not just server
Konquest is one ive been using that lets clans form and land be claimed, then MV vehicles adds various vehicles including planes, the weapons you can add with the Lore attributes reloaded to a point as well
this is my suggestions at least, i cant say whether you want to use them but its a modified no mod server so even vanilla clients can join in this situation, i dont wanna write the whole dependance list but they do use vault in them

that way players dont need a pack to play just to get the vc
however the downside is you have to prepare the items seperately to make the models, then customize the configs to work correctly
I personally prefer the old mod pack stuff
idk
Thats fine, i was just saying its an option, you can also do somethign similar by using a serverside modpack where it attaches when people join so they dont need to download seperately (but thats a bit tedious to set up) and you can decide how you want to do it
that doesnt exist
:literally doesnt, and would be a huge security risk:
installing mods on joining a server just isnt a thing atm
yeah it exists but only for small groups of people who trust eachother-doni bobes did it-
link to it
now im curious
+ if u have to install a seperate piece of software just to download a modpack
might aswell downlaod the modpack no?
it was brought up in one of his videos that they have a shared modpack thing but doesnt tell how
the players were on vanilla but the server was modded but i dont remember the exact one i have watched a few of his videos XD
how were u sure they are vanilla?
how does that work
and not just a modpack
I cant be 100% sure because they dont show all the backend things
its very likely just a mod/modpack
so should i go plugins way or
its up to you cobra, thats what i was saying
but yeah pro if its real its really only useful for like 1-6 players who trust eachother and likely from a dummy computers
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/tissous-zombie-pack-optifine-1-7x-1-19/files?version=1.19.2
what base version should i use
1.19?
base version usually depends on what the version you can find for all the mods your after
thats how i decide- can i find a mod that does this ? yes can i find a compatible mod that does this? yes and how about this? yes but only if i lower the versions by 1
would this work with 1.19
mods are a bit tricky with that, some work on earlier some dont you would have to test
the one with mod-compatible shouldnt generate any oreos, etc
right?
thats what im assuming it is
you will have to test, that type of accidental generation cant be identified with just looking at the files
a functioning modpack is a matter of trial, error, and modeling the configurations
while it would be nice if we had an actual configured modpack for it already, for everythign your after the chances are people may not have one saved already
i guess not needing to download things would be easier for players
now i havent tested openaudiomc personally but i read on its functions and seems like it uses a webbased vc to work i use the simplevoicechat since its also a mod
i wanna create something heavily inspired by decimination but
newer version, newer stuff, etc
decimation needs a big player base to be really fun tbf
it was really populated when i was playing
yeah servers are dying atm tho
no new features aswell due to them just using the last of the funds
mhm
Hellooo
I once did a server of this style
1st you want GOOD zombie mods
Please tell me you'll do it in forge lol
Take a look at this mod
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/zombie-extreme
IT'S INSANE and the zombies are a big menace
For spicing things up you can use a difficulty mod
Another thing that's super good is teams
& roleplay
I personally never liked roleplay tho
I heavily recommend players to use a client side mod that gives ambient noise
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/ambientsounds
Ooor
You can use this one
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/immersive-fx
u want proxmity chat probably
plasmo
is by far the best imo
This one has amazing FX and replaces many vanilla sounds which sound out of place
.
^
You also want GUNS
if you can compile a mod pack
that would be amazing
I have got a modpack
It's in 1.16.5 but many of the mods are also updated to 1.19.2
Forge^
I personally had lots of fun with it
Do you mind if I send you a zip I've got around?
modpack CODinMC 25-09-22.zip
Compressed (zipped) Folder
I dont mind
I usually share my mods as a zip on drive
i see
Do NOT use artifacts
It's too op
It might break away from the feeling of a zombie apocalypse
We decided to add that mod idk why
I'm looking to make a custom main menu
to go along with it
using fancymenu mod
but I have 0 experience in that
A custom menu? Amazing
An amazing mod
What version will you be using?
1.18.2? 1.19.2?
I'm thinking 1.19.2
or whatever works the best
You can use mr crayfish's gun mod
For guns and such
But the most insane gun mod I've ever seen in my life is crafting dead
It's only 1.18.2 tho
This mod is like
Stupid realistic
An amazing mod
I see
We had enhanced visuals too
This mod adds some cool visuals
Like when you're hurt your screen gets like cracks and blood
It's immersive
oh nice
We also had enhanced celestials. Idk if you'll want this mod, it was pretty cool and adds these things to night:
It adds three kind of moons
Blue moon: everyone gets luck for the night
Blood moon: mobs are stupidly aggressive
Yellow moon: harvests grow faster and give more crops
When there's blood moon, night can't be skipped
You might want to crank up difficulty. Players should be scared as hell of monsters
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/improved-mobs we used this mod because it's pretty simple
what do you think about the name "Undead Exodus"
or jusr "Exodus"
As a server name?
yes
I like exodus
Exodus means a mass departure of people
You might want to use a mini map but I would use Xaeros minimap
We used journeymap on this modpack tho
In that modpack we also had these two mods that you should not add
- miniutiluties: it's insanely OP and out of place
- vending machine: people bought netherite backpacks for 1 emerald
I'm thinking about using this for map
https://earth.motfe.net
theres a extra gun mod that adds like a giant page of weapons
for it
literally everyone uses it tbh
Woooow
You could add ruined cities
im not the best when it comes to building
You can get one with no copyright
And just paste it
What I did was having a massive destroyed city
And outside of the city there was normal Minecraft world
That city was insanely big tho
Oh and mob sunscreen
This mod completely disables mobs from burning on sunlight
This thread has gotten me a lil excited lol because I love these kind of servers
This server will be public orr friends only
well
both i guess
i justr wanna do somethin
I'm unsure if you should use biomes you'll go
I think that's too cute
I'll be playing if it's done
Where will you be hosting btw
Just curious
Maybe making the server to be modded is the bestest decision
Do you have players already?
nah xD
I have got another friend that will def want to play this if it's done but I won't tell him nothing unless you're alright with that & you manage to get this project finished
i will see
So I guess you don't even have the hosting decided
i should probably hold out on this, travel back home, get on my pc, etc
Oh yeah if you're not home all you can do is thinking about ideas
I wanna make it work
I've got a few ways to open up test servers
But 1st I want to finish playing one I'm currently on
Another idea
A tombstone mod
That's a must have
You want the server to be hard and entertaining, not extremely infuriating
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/corail-tombstone this is one of the coolest tombstones mod ever made although it has got a theme abt the magic of death
Maybe you'll want to use a simple one
