A Catalogue of Original MCreator Mods

Are you looking for a few mods to include in your modpack, a little bit of inspiration or just something new to do in your survival world? And does it bother you that to find a few good mods you have to scroll through hundreds of random ruby mods?

Well, no worries, because that's exactly why this catalogue was created! It lists many good mods that can easily be added to your modpack, all of them briefly described and sorted by dimensions and category.

(The fact they are sorted by dimensions does not mean big mods are better or took more effort to be made than the littler ones, this distinction only exists because you might sometimes just be looking for a few little mods to add to the modpack without having to get one hundred more dimensions.)

Obviously this list doesn't include every good mod, there are thousands of awesome mods and I can't know and remember them all. Also, quality is subjective. This means this list will often be updated with other mods!

And don't be offended if your mod isn't here, I might have just forgotten to write it XD. You can always write down the name of a few mods you consider good (including yours) and I will consider adding them to the list :).

If the mod doesn't feel original enough to be here (we don't want to overload this list and the creators who actually put effort in their mods might get offended), you will be given advice on how to improve it, and if the mod improves it will be added to the list :).

So, let's try to be friendly and respect the rules, and remember that this list is not official (Klemen, if you feel this topic would not be healthy for the community you can always close it).

Please notice that I did not test all of these mods and I am not responsible for any damage caused to your world!

Many of these mods fit multiple categories, but I chose the one that characterise the mod the most. I created a specific category for dimensions, even if dimensions are not the main goal of the mod. Biome category doesn't just list mods that add new biomes, but also mods that are themed around a vanilla biome (Nether, End and caves are considered "biomes"). If you think some of these mods should change category just tell me :)

So, with no further ado, here's the list!

(more links and descriptions coming soon!)

Minecraft versions listed in the mods' summary include all versions the mod has been compatible to since it was created, but some downloads might be outdated or even removed.
