The WesterosCraft Modpack
The WesterosCraft Modpack includes all necessary mods to experience our server exactly as intended. The pack is regularly updated to maintain compatibility and add new features.
What is a Minecraft Modpack?
A Minecraft modpack is a collection of modifications (mods) bundled together to create a customized gameplay experience. Mods can add new features, change game mechanics, improve graphics, or optimize performance. The WesterosCraft Modpack includes carefully selected mods that:
- Add custom blocks and textures for Westeros-specific architecture
- Provide building tools to help create detailed structures
- Enhance the visual experience to match the world of A Song of Ice and Fire
- Optimize game performance for a smooth experience
Using our official modpack ensures you have the exact same experience as other players and can see all custom content correctly. You cannot explore the server without the modpack.
