RESOURCE PACK REQUIRED

Purely Beta ("PB") is a datapack and resource pack mainly intended for servers. PB is a fork of Elements of Beta. Where EOB has custom content, this pack gives a vanilla Beta 1.7.3 experience... No frills!

Major Changes:

(As of 1.0 / EOB 1.8)

  • Experience and hunger removed
  • Attack delay removed
  • Beta 1.7.3 Food System
  • Sprinting removed
  • Golden Days and Beta Recipes are integrated within EOB. Using the plugin OldGenerator is heavily recommended.
  • End removed
  • EOB Filter: all modern blocks, mobs, items, and recipes are removed.
  • Sand and Gravel duping (like Beta)
  • Slab and (simple) wool Transmutation
  • Blockstate checker (e.g. upside-down stairs)
  • Many more! For before 1.0, check out the EOB changelog!

Other Beta mods!

Here's the best ones:

  • OldGenerator or BetaWorldGenerator plugin (for servers)
  • Nostalgic Tweaks (clientside)

Known Incompatibility:

(NT = nostalgic tweaks mod)

  • NT Prevent hunger <-- IS incompatible.
  • NT Old Drops <-- IS incompatible.
  • Modern(er) Beta World Generation (may be configurable to work)
  • Other datapacks/mods that affect the datapack's scopes.
  • Mods that use the default Heart icon

ON WORLD GENERATION

Images in the Gallery are just the same ones as EOB, because the projects are very similar. EOB just has more content.
