HeXHub.net optimized | Handheld
About
This modpack focuses on HeXHub.net and HeXHub.net for extended render distance. It adds a curated set of performance, visual and quality of life mods (map, HUD, voice chat, VR/controller support) while keeping HeXHub.net and full compatibility with HeXHub.net. It is tuned for HeXHub.net, but works on most vanilla and Paper-based survival servers.
Core intent
- Distant Horizons enabled and preconfigured. - Distant Horizons for long-range terrain. - Only client-side visuals, performance tweaks and UI/QoL features, no gameplay changes. - Helper mods such as the minimap are preconfigured for fair play, avoiding xray-like cave view, mob radar or similar unfair information. - No freecam-style spectator mods included.
Settings policy
- Preconfigured: graphics, shaders, map and a few utility mods (per edition), so everything works out of the box without unfair advantages. - Keybinds: only cleaned up to resolve conflicts between mods. Important vanilla and core mod keys keep their usual positions, less important mod keys are moved or unbound. - Other options such as sound, mouse and general gameplay settings stay close to vanilla defaults. - Your Options Shall Be Respected (YOSBR) keeps your own settings on updates. Pack defaults are only applied on fresh installs or when a mod is added and its config does not exist yet.
