Winterlands
A cozy winter-and-Christmas flavored NeoForge 1.21.1 pack that started as a friends-only world. It's tuned for that perfect seasonal Minecraft phase: frosty landscapes, festive decorations, new Worldgen, and enough performance mods to stay smooth.
Why You'll Love It
- Winter ambience that feels festive without overwhelming every biome. - Builder-friendly tools, decorative blocks, and exploration hooks that reward wandering and screenshotting. - Survival-friendly balance: light progression, QoL mods, and accessibility tweaks for comfy long sessions. - Multiplayer-ready curation with carefully integrated holiday features.

Notes for Server Admins
- Match the client stack: Minecraft 1.21.1 + NeoForge 21.1.215 - Remove anything on the server-incompatible list before launch: https://github.com/Zzackllack/Winterlands/blob/main/modpack/scripts/server/incompatible-mods.md - Keep bundled datapacks intact when copying to your server (see `config/paxi/datapacks`) so world tweaks load correctly.

<sub>ℹ️ Version Notice</sub>
<sub> Releases before Winterlands 0.131.8 (Alpha) are no longer available on Modrinth. This is due to licensing issues identified in 0.131.7 Alpha, where a mod (“fastboot”) had to be removed because it was no longer permitted for redistribution on Modrinth, the mod itself is no longer available on modrinth. These earlier versions remain documented in the repository but cannot be hosted here. </sub>
