# RWMC Supported Mods

{% hint style="success" %}
You do NOT need to install any mods to join the Rob World server; however, **Simple Voice Chat** is required to use proximity voice chat.
{% endhint %}

I recommend using the [Modrinth App](https://modrinth.com/app) to install, manage and update mods.

## Curated List <a href="#curated-list" id="curated-list"></a>

Below you will find a curated list of mods I recommend to enhance your experience on Rob World. These modifications are purely focused on immersion, performance, and subtle QoL additions.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you prefer to have a ready made pack, instead of building and customizing your own, I assembled a [Modrinth Pack](https://modrinth.com/modpack/rwmc-modpack) for your convenience.
{% endhint %}

### Favorites <a href="#favorites" id="favorites"></a>

The following mods, while not necessary, are highly recommended.

* [Simple Voice Chat](https://modrinth.com/plugin/simple-voice-chat) ― Required to use proximity voice chat.
* [Ping Wheel](https://modrinth.com/mod/ping-wheel/versions) ― Enables in-game ping markers that can be seen by everyone who has the mod installed.

### Performance Enhancers <a href="#performance-enhancers" id="performance-enhancers"></a>

The following mods greatly enhance the performance of Minecraft, especially on lower-end systems.​

* [Sodium](https://modrinth.com/mod/sodium) ― Improves the rendering performance of Minecraft by a lot. Modern replacement for Optifine.
  * ​[Indium](https://modrinth.com/mod/indium) ― Required when Sodium is combined with other mods.
* ​[Lithium](https://modrinth.com/mod/lithium) ― Improves the performance of Minecraft's back-end.
* ​[Ferrite Core](https://modrinth.com/mod/ferrite-core) ― Decreases the amount of RAM Minecraft uses.
* ​[Krypton](https://modrinth.com/mod/krypton/) ― Slightly improves the performance of Minecraft's networking.

### Immersion Enhancers <a href="#immersion-enhancers" id="immersion-enhancers"></a>

The following mods make Minecraft look and sound a lot better.

#### **Visual**

* [Iris Shaders](https://modrinth.com/mod/iris) ― Adds shaders to Minecraft
  * On its own, this mod does not do anything. You need to combine it with a shader pack.
* ​[Continuity](https://modrinth.com/mod/continuity) ― Add support for connected textures, such as glass panes.​
* [Entity Model Features](https://modrinth.com/mod/entity-model-features) ― Adds custom model support for mobs and entities
* [Entity Texture Features](https://modrinth.com/mod/entitytexturefeatures) ― Adds custom texture support for mobs and entities

#### **Audio**

* ​[Atmosfera](https://modrinth.com/mod/atmosfera) ― Adds natural ambiance to the environment.
* ​[Sound Physics Remastered](https://modrinth.com/mod/sound-physics-remastered) ― Enables SFXs with Simple Voice Chat, like cave echo or muffed speaking inside buildings.
* ​[Presence Footsteps](https://modrinth.com/mod/presence-footsteps) ― Adds footsteps SFXs to all entities and players.

### Distant Horizons / Voxy

Distant Horizons is an amazing mod that extends the players view-distance to unbelievable levels. With the recent addition to allowing server-side compatibility now, this plugin is a HIGHLY recommended addition.

* [Distant Horizons](https://modrinth.com/mod/distanthorizons) ― Increases your render distance above what the server allows.
* [Voxy](https://modrinth.com/mod/voxy/versions) — An alternative to Distant Horizons, with slightly less shader support
