Recommended Mods

No mods are required to play on Waychest. However, the mods on this page improve the overall experience on the server in various ways.

If a mod is not mentioned, it is likely still allowed. The only restriction falls under the Server Rule: if a mod creates problems or could interfere with other players’ gameplay, it is not allowed.

If you have not installed mods before, Prism Launcher makes them easy to install and manage. Read the Prism getting started guide for more information.

Optimization

Everything in Fabulously Optimized is highly recommended, especially Sodium and Sodium Extra. These mods all massively improve performance on most devices. I recommend using Prism Launcher and creating an instance with Fabulously Optimized as the base. (Prism Launcher > Add Instance > Modrinth > Fabulously Optimized)

Increased View Distance

Pick 1:

• Bobby
  • If your computer can handle it, increases your view distance beyond what the server can send.
  • This server has a plugin that sends extreme render distances, up to 63 chunks. Bobby is required to see more than 32 chunks of render distance.
• Distant Horizons
  • Extreme render distances. However, you’ll need to turn your real render distance beyond Distant Horizons’ recommendation (up to 32 chunks) to cache chunks and see very far on Waychest.

Maps

Pick 1 of the options below to add a minimap and a map that fills in as you explore:

• Xaero’s Minimap and Xaero’s World Map
• JourneyMap
