ONWARD

# the best RPG modpack that balances out the grind and fun.  # what is ONWARD? ONWARD is a survival RPG modpack currently in beta that focuses on adventure and keeping the core feel of Minecraft overall. this pack adds a variety of different mods and makes sure that there's always something for you to do and explore in the world! our current version as of now is **[v2.0b](https://modrinth.com/modpack/onward/version/v2.0b)**! ## what's so good about ONWARD? ### packed with content! **ONWARD: Second Journey** is filled to the brim with content that's bound to keep you entertained for a long while. whether that's exploring the world, fighting off hordes at night, there's always something for you here! ### Essential mod support! ONWARD is built with Essential Mod support in mind, allowing you to connect and play with your friends with ease. no need for a dedicated server, just log on and play! ### utilises "Combat Test 8C" combat! this modpack utilises the combat system in **[Mojang's Combat Test](https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Java_Edition_Combat_Tests)** snapshots, which basically merges 1.8 and 1.9 pvp together. perfect for both 1.8 and 1.9+ players alike! ### a unique shader! ONWARD uses a modified version of **[Lethal Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/lethal-shaders)** with added shadows, godrays, reflections and more! all of these can be disabled and configured to your liking in Iris' shader settings. ### take to the skies with aircrafts! elytras won't get you flying around very well... so, what about some man-made aircraft? craft airplanes, helicopters, it's up to you! all upgradable with aircraft upgrades. ### voice chat support! talk to your friends in close proximity! powered by **[Simple Voice Chat](https://modrinth.com/plugin/simple-voice-chat)**. ### works pretty well on low-end hardware! as long as your system is capable of running minecraft decently at 60 fps or so, you shouldn't experience much problems with performance. on some systems this can affect performance heavily, so i recommend turning the shader pack off if you encounter any performance-related issues. ### a variety of content to explore! ONWARD comes with a vast amount of content to explore and mess around with! whether that may be paragliders, different structures, biomes and more! whatever it is, i'm sure you'll always have something to do regardless. # requirements ### minimum - allocated memory: 2GB - **this will make your game stutter depending on what you're doing.*** - this is what i consider to be a "safe point" for ONWARD to run on. ### recommended - allocated memory: 4GB - **this eliminates stuttering as a whole.** - this is what i consider to be the best memory allocation for ONWARD. # credits **[doonv](https://modrinth.com/user/doonv)** - created "**[Lethal Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/lethal-shaders)**", i made a fork of their shader since i wanted to keep the look and feel of ONWARD and enhance it. :) all of the mods featured in this modpack are all from Modrinth only, except... **[Flintl0cks](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/flintl0cks/gallery)**, for the 3D models of guns. take a look at the mods installed in the pack and support the creators who made them! they deserve it way more than i do :) # links ### social medias [ **[skelOS discord](https://dsc.gg/skelos)** ] | get news on my projects, report bugs here and be part of the community!
