Spice Pack: Vanilla and Cardamom

This modpack adds several GUI mods for vanilla Minecraft.  There are no gameplay-altering mods, so you can run this pack on your client and connect to vanilla servers.

Distant Horizons is enabled by default.  If you have any performance problems at all, try turning it off and see if that fixes them.  In Options, to the left of the FOV slider, there’s a button for Distant Horizons settings.  Toggle Enable Rendering to turn it on or off.  You can also try adjusting the other settings and see how they impact performance.

The actual modlist changes for different Minecraft versions, and the modlists for older versions are listed in their changelogs.  Below is the modlist for 1.20.1.
