Aeronautics is out, and an alpha release of Create+ is out with it! Remember though, it is an alpha. The summary is that some mods, like Tetra, are missing due to not being updated to the latest version, and as of right now, there is no server pack. However, a beta version is getting closer and closer over time.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Create+ is built around a simple concept: A simple Vanilla+ modpack, but with one exception that the pack revolves around: Create.

You can expect Vanilla+ mods like Supplementaries as well as Create addons such as Create: Aeronautics. It will also have mods to have players focus on the Create way of doing things - that is, the build it yourself way - such as Aileron. With it, in order to venture vast distances or travel quickly, players can't just make a bunch of firework rockets. They'll have to actually build planes, trains, helicopters, or whatever else floats their boat to do so. And don't forget about the infrastructure they'll need to build to do so.

Create+ also:

- Is Performant and lightweight. See the:

- Not including Iris (for now, while it still has issues with Aeronautics) (when Iris is present some immediately fast optimizations get disabled, which is why you get better performance without it even if you aren't using shaders) (sorry for the parenthesis spamming)

- Technically TooManyRecipeViewers, since it+EMI is faster than JEI+EMI

- Fast Paintings (technically an optimization mod)

Since you looked this far, you should also try using Java 25 and the jvm flags -XX:+UseZGC -XX:+UseCompactObjectHeaders. No need to unlock experimental vm options. You're welcome :)

- Is Built for survival multiplayer with friends.

Voicechat is already included, and it also has e4mc if you don't want to pay for a server or host one yourself. Although, if you want your friends to be able to play while you aren't…
