Another interesting topic!
One you missed that became part of the game was McRegion also by Scaevolus. It has since been replaced by Anvil, but it was the first optimised world save format. Before McRegion all chunks were saves as discrete files in region folders, which made the world save balloon in size.
On one hand, having the chunks easily found like that made finding and correcting chuck errors easy for server managers, but on the other hand it made doing backups a very long process.
Ah ok that's really interesting
We also have Roughly Enough items which is pretty much just a Fabric Mod Loader version of Just Enough Items.
my favourite mod was thaumcraft
as well as pretty much every mod in mianite season 2
aether is such a significant mod that mojang hire the creator of the mod to the team
Is was a phenomenal mod
Its still my favorite mod of all all time..
I remember trying to make the aether portal in minecraft without having the mod as a kid xd
@@YTDani75 yeees me too
@@CIMB4 I'd kill for that PLEASE MOJANG
There's another mod that I thought was gonna be on the list, Mo' Creatures. Mojang worked with the creator of the mod to implement the horse into Minecraft, the default horses and the ones from Mo' creatures share the same model but the default ones have a less detailed texture. I also believe they credited DrZhark, the creator of the mod, for helping them implement the mob.
@Nevo D True. I also thought orespawn would be on the list because it was basically an even better version of the aether mod as it has multiple bosses, unique structures, numerous dimensions, and custom swords and mods.
Chief Yoshi it really wasn’t a better aether it was more like calamity in that it’s basically it’s own game rather than an expansion which aether really feels like
@@kronalord3764 Æther is like Thorium while Orespawn is like Calamity
Now we talking about terraria mods?
Chief Yoshi
orespawn was my first and favorite mod. i still have my orespawn level from a year ago
who else was extremely disappointed when they couldnt create the aether portal
here :/
Yep
i remember trying to do it on pocket edition :(
I was a person back then who knew it was a mod, but then again I was extremely privileged back then and was gifted with a computer when Minecraft first came out so I've played it on PC during it's glory and I got to experience the mod when I learned how to install it. I do empathize with your struggles though.
Here😔💔
"The Aether"
*That's a name I haven't heard in a long time*
A lot of shit has happened with Aether these years and there's actually an Aether 2.
I hear it everyday since I play zombies
I used to call it "The Heaven Dimension". Back when I didn't knew the actual name of the mod
@@humanman2358 this gave me so many memories im in tears
@@the90thhunter92 its quite sad that since there is so many great mods that its not great anymore :( or just super unheard of
Some other mods that was popular back in the old days, and some less known:
- Twilight forest (old mod, still exist, adds a dimension, used to be downloaded using Mod loader, time where you needed to put all files in some .rar unstead of mod folder, and deleting META INF)
- Mo's creatures (old mod, adds mobs, is the inspiration for mojang to add horses)
- Matmos (adds ambient sounds)
- shader mods
- slenderman/herobrine/John/weaping angels mods (horror mods trend)
- Buildcraft/Industrialcraft (some of the first tech mods)
- Biospheres (old mod, adds new world gen)
- Better than wolves (now known as "better with mods" in 1.12+, very old mod)
- Orespawn (iconic at his time)
- morph (allow you to transform into any mobs and steal their power)
- Applied energistic, revolutionized all tech based modpacks
- More creeps and weirdos (very very old mod, adds wtf mobs.... this mod was never updated until 1.15. Is now called "more creeps")
- lucky blocks (created a HUGE TREND)
Mojang actually used the horse model until they updated it and made it look worse
better dungeons should have been there.
popularMMOs
@@ink31930 yeah this yt channel got popular with the Lucky block trend
jgmc2 and orespawn and better dungeons really boosted his mob battles series as he relied on better dungeons to make other mobs fight each other even if they are not naturally aggressive towards each other.
All of y’all were trying to make an aether portal while I spent several hours looking for bamboo and pineapple for tropicraft in xbox 360 minecraft.
lol
Ohh I remember that mod I think or was it a different one mind saying the name.
well at least bamboo was added back lol
Ah and Trying to get into twilight forest..
Tropicraft man.....thats a Really Nostalgic Mod man
You missed the mcregion mod. It was a new save format, which had so many advantages over the old alpha save format, that it was eventually implimented into the vanilla game. But it was later replaced by the Anvil format by Mojang, which is still used today.
Ah yes, somebody else informed me of this same mod in the comments, maybe I'll make a part 2
The anvil format is basically the region format with a few tweaks, it’s still the same in spirit. It was only changed because the game got bigger and more complex.
@Farah Queen
The slider? That’s the bronze dungeon boss
I was expecting Mo Creatures and Biomes o Plenty because of how influential they have been for so long.
I was expecting biomes o plenty and thaumcraft
@@icedragon9097 BoP definetly should've been

@@cddvd5360 me too lol we are dumb
I was too young I just saw videos of it before I even knew how to speak English. I just called it heaven
Should have had forge in the list since it enabled larger projects and packs
Omg haha how did I miss that
@@PyPylia twitch forge is install wait 3-10 min then press play wait 2-10 min and then u can play it, a toddler can do it
@@PyPylia Forge *is* a modding API, and a modloader. I haven't tried Fabric yet, so I can't weigh in on relative difficulty, but I know that Forge is not really that hard to use once you learn how, just a bit tedious and unintuitive.

Evil Minecraft by Evil Notch is what inspired the Jungle biome. Mo' creatures was a hugely popular mod that inspired Minecraft's horses. Also, industrialcraft and buildcraft had huge impacts on modpacks. There were also some other huge mods like Tinker's Construct (which might've inspired mending and connected glass textures), Applied Energistics, Openblocks, Computercraft, Hardcore Questing, Ars Magica, Thaumcraft, and more. Also, another common UI mod that had many successors was Journeymap.
Edit: Also, Chocoquest was a popular mod that probably inspired many other dungeon-based mods.
Edit 2: There was also Divine RPG which added a whole ton of mobs and new dimensions, along with new progression systems. There was also Orespawn, which made the game absolutely bonkers and was relatively popular.
Edit 3: A few other popular mods were Biomes of plenty (which inspired many more biome-adding mods), Tropicraft (which was similar to the aether in what types of things it added), forestry, pneumaticraft, Ender IO, Galactricraft, and probably a few more I'm missing.
Rei's Minimap forever in our hearts
I just did the math, 80% of modpacks on curseforge use tinker's
Soulja Boy As expected. Tinker’s is phenomenal, shame it usually is overshadowed by tools and weaponds from mods like Thermal, Industrial and specially Draconic.
biome bundle came out before biomes of plenty also you missed thermal expansion
@@aqua4089 there arnt many tools in thermal or ic2 that can even compare to tinkers tools. tinkers is op if your in 1.7 you get signalum crossbow and if your in 1.12 then you get mending moss and even without these things the tools and weapons are better then anything in ic2 or thermal
A mod that's easy to forget about is Mo' Creatures, It added a lot of new mobs and animals, and an excessive horse breeding mechanic. Mojang later on I think hired the mod maker to code in the horses in 1.6.
Oh ok, that's interesting
@@TheMisterEpic The mod creator is also listed in the end credits of Minecraft. It was such a huge mod, inspired many "mo' -----" and "more -----" mods.
Dr Zhark, yeah.
Oh my god, Too Many Items. This was a Mod that I considered essential until 1.6. I ALWAYS downloaded it in any mod pack at the time. The ease of commands, the quick access to the intensities in addition to letting you know the craft of all the intens of vanila minecraft and other mods, as it has almost 100% compatibility with them. I'm glad you remembered.
Now it's Just Enough Items
@@cammy649 dont forget not enough items its also a child of Too many items
50th like
and after NEI was JEI all three are as essential to me as Optifine, I never play without them
When it comes to modded minecraft, JEI or its equivalent are necessary. Who has time to look through a mod's book (assuming they have one) to find a recipe. It's a gamechanger for sure
Another cool mod I enjoyed was the Clay Soldiers Mod. So much fun setting up cool battle arenas for them.
Oh yea that was cool
Fun times.
Basically the predecessor for *Ultimate Epic Battle Simulator*
@@z0bi_ how bout *Totally Accurate Battle Simulator*
clay soldiers was the first mod i ever downloaded
epic: “did i miss anything”
me: “the entire Feed The Beast mod pack”
*Sad Twilight Forest noises
Oh now we are speaking in the language of the gods
The big dig modpack for me haha
i kinda wanna dispute too many items being "no longer around" since its just mostly evolved and changed names over time, and its pretty much at the core of any modpack that exists in minecraft
2:07 You have committed a crime worse than genocide by leaving that woodblock in the tree.
Man I remember how happy 8 year old me was when I first installed the Too Many Items mod. Time flies
Remember where you had to modify the minecraft.jar to install mod and texture packs (yes, not resource)? Times were hard back then.
@@JustinsRealmMC Oh yeah, I'll never forget the days of manually deleting META-INF and installing Modloader
Good times, I was so proud of myself back then because English is not my native language and I had to teach myself a lot of new words just to understand what to move where.
Orespawn is definitely another great mod that changed mods forever. Tons of new mobs, dungeons, and dimensions. Plus added bosses! One of those auto include mods in any modpack.
But you do got to make sure your careful which mods you combine with ore-spawn because it can become overpowered and make other mods challenges easy and boring but if it’s just a simple adventure mod pack it’s pretty balanced
@Thepoweroffreesh Yes, it is pretty overpowered after you get the queen scale stuff. But in those modpacks, there is usually something that can still challenge you, like for example, the queen. You kinda need a Slime and Cloud pet for that. But if ya don’t have that mod, whelp, idk how to kill it.
was my first mod and my favorite
Orespawn is a mess.
@@kaianderson9920 I think that the reason for that is because orespawn was made with the intention of being the main mod in a modpack and not just a standalone thing
I used to (and still kinda do) wish that mojang would make the aether official
Yeah, And the Aether can very much enter Minecraft, Like, It dont add any Crazy Stuff that would ruin minecraft simplicity
@@kirbyfazendoummoonwalk9214 also, didn't they hire one of the devs of the ather? I bet they are waiting until minecraft loses popularity again.
Yeah but make it a bit more original and minecrafty
It wouldn't fit with the game, while i like the mod, it isn't vanilla at all.
Better dungeons/ Chocolate quest was very iconic back in 2012 in versions 1.1 to version 1.6.4. A dungeon mod that set it's self apart from other dungeon mods by having massive dungeons around the world with unique mobs in them with new bosses for those said dungeons and theres different factions for the dungeons like pirates or walkers. The mod also has a lot of items used for adventure like a hook shot allowing you to shoot webs and cling to ceilings or walls and cloud boots that allow you to jump higher and can't take fall damage. The mod is still impressive nowadays and existed since the minecraft betas in 2011 but it mostly modifed vanilla dungeons back then and all the other new dungeons were added in later versions. The original creator of this mod "Chocolatin" disappeared off the internet in May of 2016 shortly after making a post on the chocolate quest wiki saying he was working on a 1.9 version of the mod. The original mod sits a 1.7.10 right now and hasn't had an official new version since September of 2015. In mid 2018 though Chocolatin's friend ArloTheEpic (The community manager of the mod) started a revival project for the mod to recreate the mod for 1.12.2 adding in stuff from old versions of the mod and more, It goes under the name Chocolate Quest Repoured and is still being worked on for a full release. The mod is in it's alpha stage right now so it's playable and it has a page on curseforge: www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/cqrepoured
The mod is still no where close to being completed and they have to recreate the mod from scratch with new textures, models, sounds, and coding because simply porting the mod would be illegal in their words.
Damn that's cool, I wish I had known about it before
In my mind, the most influential mods _including_ the ones listed in the video
MCRegion: Completely changed how chunks were saved in Minecraft, was later implemented to the vanilla game.
Forge (modloader): Made modding and running mods 100x easier than before
Biomes O Plenty: The standard for biome mods
Buildcraft and IndustrialCraft: Both are some of the most influential technology based mods to ever come out
if you like BC and IC2 give Mekanism a try if you hadn't already, I can recommend this mod if you are into Technic mods
Pixelmon and lunar client
Orespawn: Made MC mods mainstream.
@@AniFan121 one of the if not the best tech mods. I had so much fun figuring out how to build the multiblock sturctures
@@KinqNick your right, nothing beats Mekanism in technic, and same, I loved and still love to figure out how to build the mb structures
Another mod that I want to mention is Industrial Craft
Industrial Craft (or IC) is the one of the first mod that introduces machinery and new power call Energy Units, which released in Beta 1.3_01
This mod add ores, machines, generators and more.
Later on, this mod updated into IC2 in Beta 1.7.3
witch was older ic, or buildcraft? cause at least the original tech mod should definatley be on this list, or was better than wolves even older?
I tried the aether when i was a like 10 then i learned it doesnt work on vanilla minecraft..
I felt my heart crack
Everyone had that experience once. Many people in our age group were kids when the mod was first released and most of us didn’t knew that mods existed or even how to install them. So naturally you boot up Minecraft and get disappointed because the portal didn’t work only to later realize that this required you to install the mod. Good times. Good times ....
Aren't we all?
feel u
yep that and trying to craft stuff from mods too
@@Manie230 6 iq
Remember when we used to make the Aether portal without the mod installed and cry in disappointment?
Yes.
Yes, I remember that. Mojang really needs to add the Aether in the game.
its strange how common this experience is (i did it too). i guess cuz its just such a "vanilla" thing to be in the game we thought it wasnt a mod. i mean it only makes sense that there would be both a heaven and hell dimension. some people might argue that The End is that but... it just isnt
Orange Swirl It would truly be a great addition, considering that they already have a great nether. It would be amazing
Y must u hurt me in this way
pls mojang dont let new young player experience it too
I can't believe its been 2 years since 1.13 was released...
*almost 3
I thought 1.8 was released 2 years ago
That long?
I'm honestly really glad I found your channel a little while back; your stuff is genuinly interesting and a thousand times better than the content of those with millions of subs. Keep it up! And seeing mods like the "x-ray mod" totally brings me back. I remember messing around with it with friends back in the early beta versions. God, that's a long time ago.
Haha thanks
100th like I ruined it lol
I hope that the Cubic Chunks mod will be implemented into Minecraft someday... it makes way more sense than the 2D Chunks that we have right now, and would not only improve frame rates significantly, but also allow for infinite sky and infinite underground, both of which could lead to extremely cool updates in the future, assuming Cubic Chunks gets implemented...
Hexxit modpack and especially the twilight forest mod included in that modpack is probably most epic minercraft thing ever I'm not sure if it ''changed minecraft forever'' but I still think it's one of the most important and best mod/modpack out there.
Yeah, Hexxit was and still is amazing
Aether changed everything and sparked my interest though I have never once successful installed mods
Rip zeppelin and archamedes ships
Zeppeli, you say?
@@peenyyt4921 sad JoJo's noises
You could have also mentioned all the mods that started the modpack craze, those being the ones included in Technic pack and Tekkit (the most important ones were EE2, Twilight forest, IC2, Buildcraft, Redpower 2)
Also the ender storage mod literally created the concept of ender chests
Also Buildcraft had hoppers before vanilla did
Aether is such an amazing mod. How it hasn't been added as a dimension yet is beyond me.
I find it kinda funny that you talk about Open to LAN as if it were the official way to access cheats when I feel like it was just meant to make your singleplayer world multiplayer
You missed Minecraft Forge (or mod loader in really old versions). There also ender storage which had ender cheats before vanilla did. And Buildcraft had hoppers before vanilla hoppers. Also Buildcraft Industrialcraft Redpower and other tech mods in general
TheMisterEpic: “they probably wouldn’t want tens of thousands of players to have capes”
Mojang: *releases the migrator cape*
I haven't heard "INVEdit" in so long... That was a throwback. We used InvEdit a lot more than Too Many Items, but we did use TMI later. The nostalgia hits hard...
Except, notch in like 2010 or 2011 showed screenshots of a airy dimension, prior to even the implementation of the Nether. I really really doubt that a generic idea of the opposite of the nether (which notch said he wanted to implement anyways) influenced the design of the End because a mod was made.
Who else watched tobuscus's modded survival back in the days?
Thaumcraft- A breathing magical world which had detailed magical technology to work with.
Terrafirmacraft- put the full in full conversion mods.
Better than wolves- Sowed the seeds of amazingly large and dynamic multi blocks which gave the feel of their real life counterparts.
Red power- Major upgrade to item transportation and a massive leap into micro blocks.
Build craft- Of the original complex automations mods which brought remote multi blocks into the for front of the modding community.
Industrial craft- An automation heavy mod which really kicked off tiered tech mods.
They had a massive impact on their respective genre of mod.
IndustrialCraft 2 and Buildcraft are also really influential, spinning the game into it's own seperate meta and also ispired completely seperate games like Factorio, Satisfactory, and arguably they're own genres. Buildcraft is also the reason Hoppers exist in Minecraft.
Back in the day, I remember of 2 mods: twilight forest and ore spawn, two mods how change everything in the game and various TH-camr use them to make videos.
I was expecting Mo' Creatures, Biome o' Plenty, Mod Loader, Tinkerer's Construct and MCEdit to be in the list.
damn i will always remember Tobuscus's Aether mod gameplay, beating bosses, getting the Hammer of Notch, different keys and weapons. It was such a great thing to watch, and I would never be able to make that portal.
Just found your channel, its quite great! You deserve more attention than you have. Great editing, microphone, video quality. You also asked for subs very subtly by not saying it yourself, and just having a very simplistic image and some text asking for subscribers. Great channel!
Thank you so much it means a lot!
@@TheMisterEpic you're welcome! Unfortunately TH-cam is quite luck based, so if you feel like you don't get enough attention and therefor your work is going to waste, remember it will eventually pay off. Just saying that because a lot of small channels end up dying off like that.
Will do!
Bro me and my brothers used to play the Aether II mod back when the OATS (Official Aether Two Server) was still up, even after it being taken down the progress made on the Aether II mod is very impressive even with the server coming close to coming back.
If you call six years of development hell impressive, then yeah, it was impressive
I've watched a lot of your vids now without realizing that you had less than 1k subs, bro you deserve so much better with the amount of quality in your videos.
Haha thanks so much
@@TheMisterEpic from 1k to 300k+ subs in 1 year is well done
I can't believe you made a whole video on the history and significance of minecraft mods, without even a mention of Tekkit, or at least buildcraft/ic2. Those mods arguably inspired an entire genre of video games in Factorio, or Satisfactory
You forgot the single most useful feature of the Too Many Items and kin. The ability to look up recipes! No more constantly referring to the Minecraft wiki! This is even more useful when you have other mods installed that add many more recipes on top of all the vanilla ones.
Later variants also let you look to see what recipes a given item is used *in*, and how items are obtained or used without the crafting table, such as through smelting or found only in dungeon loot, or where a given ore generates. This is especially useful in a modded situation where maybe you have some magic tree that only grows the End, and you need to use different mod mechanics to turn it into a wand or something.
Who else was mad when they tried to make the aether portal as a kid without the mod and it didn’t work?
me LMAOO
I remember watching tobuscus playing the aether mod and me thinking it was so cool, only to find out it was well, just a mod. I had glowstone and water and tried to make the portal on my xbox 360 and was sad to see it didnt work.
Once when I was playing UHC on Hypixel, one of the chunks wasn't loading so I saw a bunch of ores. I never knew it was to prevent xraying
Kappa
Industrial craft/Applied energistics/tinker's construct/buildcraft were all crazy upgrades for earlyMC. The first modpack I played was tekkit classic and I'm still hooked
Mo creatures was one I remember loving so much when I played originally
I started playing minecraft during beta 1.3 and I remember so many of these mods. A lot of my favourite minecraft mods are now basically just abandoned relics.
the interaction between pistons and slimeblocks to launch items, players and move many blocks around was a mod at first, too.
it came from the technical community (panda4994 and others) and was picked up and implemented into the game before it even became popular
Let's not forget about the Twilight forest/dimension mod! Idk if it might've been just the youtubers I watched at the time, but I saw quite a lot of people playing with it.
Hold on, I forgot to delete META-INF
Seing SPC and TMI for the first time in ... _forever_ now gave me a hit of nostalgia I wasn't prepared for - and that comes from someone who just recently finished a 1.2.5 Retro modpack playthrough 😅
Oh my, I remember INVEdit clear as day, I used it to mess around a lot in pseudo "creative" worlds back in Beta. Thanks for hitting me with that piece of nostalgia. (yeah I moved to too many items later on aswell)
I've been watching your videos recently and you're an amazing channel
Thanks so much+
God was I dissapointed back then when I tried to build the Aether portal...
5:43 that was very Nostalgic because i used to build structures like that when i was a kid
Fun fact, Mojang was working on a sky dimension but the code was super broken and it had a tendency to overwrite the overworld resulting in sky chunks, the Sky Dimension eventually got reworked into the End Dimension, actually for a good long period of time the End's official biome name was called Sky, it was renamed to End when they updated it to include the outer end islands.
Optifine, TMI/NEI, Millenaire if thats how its spelt was big back in the day?, Herobrine Mod, FTB
Im pretty young but TMI just gave me mad nostalgia. Especially in the enchanting tab i used that allot
Buidcraft, Forestry, Thaumcraft and Industrial Craft, those mods changed the way I looked at sandbox games forever XD I remember watching Direwolf20 set up a Buildcraft Quarry or watching his army of golems working around his base and being mindblown... miss those mods so much...
I think other mods like IC2, Buildcraft and maybe even tinker's construct have shaped the technical modpack scene for the last 5 years. Whilst IC2 and Buildcraft are not as prominent as before they did pave the way for mods like Thermal Expansion and Mekanism
7:33 does anyone knows the shaders and the texture hes using? lol
i want it
He literally says its optifine
@@callumhanson6197 Oh nice to know that Optfine is a shaderspack and a texture pack at the same time, you are really my hero!!!! Thank you, you have no ideia how thankfull i am for your living being.
i hope to see no wooshes in the replies after that one
i have a good computer but i max out at about 40 fps. How can i download optifine? how much does it cost? can i disable the cape feature? I don't want to download a virus by accident. thnaks in advance.
Go to www.optifine.net
OptiFine is free, the cape feature is paid.
Well if u max 40 fps ur computer is not that good
@@lahna5095 mine gets 30-60 frames depending on stuff around me
@@lahna5095 40 is alright assuming that seems to be there max at reasonable settings. If its there max at absolute minimum...
Still fine cause optifine will probably bring that back up
for the first year of playing mc in 2011 for me i played on my brothers computer and used invedit because i just loved to build, and i honestly didn't even know what a pickaxe was till a year later when i bought it myself and was so confused as to why i couldn't pick up stone. great video! very nostalgic :') i think another one that fits in here is definitely mo creatures
One mod i'm surprised you didn't bringup, was Mo creatures. Given that dr Zhark, the creator of the mod also worked on translating several of the creatures from his mod to the game proper Starting with horses, it's safe to say it had a big impact on the world.
How could you forget Ender Chests. That revolutionized so much of Minecraft.
I was thinking about how I always wanted the Mo’ Creatures mod but was afraid to touch that stuff when I was young and eventually they added horses to vanilla Minecraft, one of the mobs found in Mo’ Creatures.
I cant imagine playing moded survival without orespawn i love that mode it brings so many things to the game when i get bored of vanilla i just start up a world with orespawn and a few more mods for maps, bacpacks, morph mode (totally op with orespawn) and rpg invetory always and just have fun
5:03 never expected to see an old robbaz clip in a minecraft vid, this clip alone gave me some nostalgia
Thank you for this trip down memory lane. I love seeing how far vanilla Minecraft and modded MC has come.
I remember there was an old mod called Solar Apocalypse. It was from way back when mod installing was some incomprehensible eldritch mess, so I couldn't actually play any mods, but I used to watch SkyDoesMinecraft's mod showcase on it. Another that stuck to me was DanTDM's mod showcase of a power armor mod.
I remember the first time I heard about the Aether...
Back around the time I first started playing (Beta 1.6) I didn't really watch youtube or anything like it, so everything I knew about Minecraft was from friends or hearing other kids talk about in passing. When I heard about it, I automatically assumed that it was in the game, and tried to build the glowstone portal to get there. That was also the first time I went to the Nether.
I was bummed when I found out that it was a mod, but to this day I still see it as a place that belongs in Minecraft and is part of the nostalgia of the beta versions...
You have good, informative content on your channel and it is very enjoyable, also what shaders did you use when explaining optifine?
Buildcraft and industrial craft is what started modpacks all together. They are core components in many mc modpacks today such as technic and FTB. Buildcraft brought automated mining using its quarry and moved items using pipes. Industrial craft added in power generation and more production. These are components you see in various stations used in vanilla modpacks today and hoppers.
I swear that's a reason to love minecraft even more, a so moddable game like it is probably many devs wouldn't like to have others finding errors or improving something you did but mojan embraced it and used them to improve the game along with them, that's what a company that cares for it's game does and not at all for the money
People not growing up in 1.7.3 dont understand the hype around the amount of mods and variety going around at the time, it truly was a golden era of modding
Makes me wonder.. what was the first "tech" mod?
What was the first "magic" mod?
Influencing vanilla minecraft isn't the only thing to take note of, IMO; there are mods which heavily impacted the modding scene itself
If I recall, Industrial Craft was one of those that was very influential.
It basically introduced a new game mode which consisted in creating machinery capable of both farming and multiplying your resources, something that in turn allowed you to undertake the more taxing but powerful machines of the mod, all in a gameplay loop that ended in you blowing up your world out of running out of things to do or lagging it beyond believe in like a month, maybe less. A trend followed by a lot of other mods like EnderIO, Actually Additions, Immersive Engineering, Minefactory, and Thermal Expansion... Just to name a few.
One one I liked using in older versions that got implemented and updated even was the Hangable Maps mod, that let you put maps on the walls, tho Mojang made the use of item frames instead.
RIP MCEdit. It was such a powerful tool for builders. WorldEdit compared to MCEdit is like using the janky settlement menu vs using the creation kit to build a house in Fallout 4.
Beside Aether ( good old times
I dont think it was as popular as any of these but I still have fond memories of the tale of kingdoms mod, I remember installing it after watching tobuscus play it
The Aether mod was so big online it fooled thousands of people into thinking it was part of the vanilla experience
The Aether is so iconic that, according to my friend who works at children's parties for a living, kids as young as 6 years old have tried to make glowstone portals to get to the Aether without knowing that it's a mod!
Almost to 1k subs! Good job on your videos btw.
Edit: Your now past 1k subs! Good job!
Thanks!
Fun Fact: A member or the leader (i dont remember which) actually now is a developer at Mojang. He said it himself on MineCon 2020, or the 1.17 announcement.
Thank you for this video, brought back some good memories.
It's so validating to see all of this again. Thank you
Some of the most influential mods that come to mind is The Aether, Twilight Forest, Mutant Mobs, Orespawn, Mo' Creatures, etc.
Battlegear: Mine and Blade -> 1.9
Not nearly as close but there is an old mod called Minefantasy that had roads similar to more advanced path blocks, cookers similar to smokers, big furnaces similar in function to blast furnaces (and something totally different called a blast furnace), and some combat aspects as well (many weapons with different speeds and reaches and advantages/disadvantages) including spears that act almost exactly like tridents..
Great vid mate, very informal :D

you know what sucks, is mods have lost all impact on the kids now😔 they have "mods" and "texture packs" but they really aren't the same. comparing to what we had their stuff is rubbish. this has also changed the minecraft culture (in my opinion) i remember wanting to have mods like crazycraft so bad but now they don't care and are ok with basic minecraft
5:44 that nostalgia overload tho
