Create: Expanded and Optimized

Create: Expanded and Optimized is exactly what it says on the tin.

This is a modpack that has a main focus on Create mod, but also features some tweaks that help make the vanilla grind a bit easier to manage. This pack is intentionally kept to be light-weight with a bunch of performance mods as even Vanilla 1.18 is getting hard to run for older devices. These performance mods include: Rubidium (Forge port of Sodium), Entity Culling, Starlight and Farsight that help you to squeeze more out of your machine. But you can also turn up the eye-candy by installing shaders using Oculus, to do so, simply throw your shader pack into the provided folder and enable it via the graphics settings menu.

For a change of scenery Terralith has been added for some stunning new biomes without adding the extra blocks that make inventory managent a hassle, even though there now are backpacks.

Some very useful server and world management tools have been included as well, helping you with pre-generating chucks for that smooth chunk loading, and managing the load on your computer by dynamically shifting your render and simulation distances. Thanks to Chunk-Pregenerator and Dynamic View.

Oh! And you can instamine deepslate with a Netherite Pickaxe with Efficiency V and Haste II. Have fun!

NOTE: This modpack is NOT compatible with Optifine, as many of the optimization mods interfere with its functions on a technical level.
