PARANOID: Beyond Sanity

v1.3.1.1r

Brief Summary

Think of it as Forsaken Wilds, but more terrifying. This modpack features more biomes, dimensions, entities, and structures to give you an even more intense feeling of being watched. This modpack is designed to scare the living 💩 out of you, with entities that seem very unsettling. Some of the entities are from my modpack, Forsaken Wilds, but this modpack includes tons of scary mods that include entities that you may have never seen from my modpacks.

See below for people who fear spiders:

Intro

The world was peaceful. People built villages, structures, homes, and cities. The wildlife was great, featuring beautiful animals and an amazing sunset that glowed on the horizon, illuminating the beauty of the Earth.

That didn't last for so long, and it changed when the corruption emerged. People became possessed, corrupted, and strange... They weren't ordinary people anymore, they became the icon of true horror. And then, rituals were done, and more corrupted and distorted entities emerged that haunt, hunt, and ruin what was once a peaceful planet. There is no peace anymore.

You're now one of the few people remaining on Earth who is not cursed. The only issue is that you're paranoid due to the uneasy presence that now covers this planet. You have to watch your sanity. You have to watch your temperature. Are you seeing things? Are you overthinking? Are you paranoid? Are you okay?

Face your fears in this modpack, PARANOID: Beyond Sanity. Uncover what now lurks on the planet Earth that was once at peace. Do you have the sanity to face your fears? Do you have what it takes to survive? Do you have what it takes to uncover the secrets hidden in the deep corruption? Or will you be a string puppet that the horror now controls?

Enter with caution. Respect the nature that still remains.

Disclaimers and Notes

Feedback is appreciated.

If you're leaving a comment about your experience, don't go all flame on about it. Please list out the issues you may have experienced, possible ideas that I can implement, and what can be done better in an orderly, civilized manner. Otherwise, your comment is deleted.

Mods can be turned off.

Mods can be turned off to your own preference. If you find a mod or two causing your experience to be in the way or is bothersome, you can turn them off by heading to Profile Options and then toggling "Allow content management for this modpack". This allows you to enable or disable mods.
Experience can differ with everyone else.
And yes, you can configure the mods yourself if you know how to.

This is hardcore.

You may spawn in a difficult terrain and/or entities already attacking you. I do plan on working around/fixing such scenarios; likelihood isn't 100% guaranteed.

All mods in this modpack are credited to the original authors.

Every mod in this modpack (and my other modpacks) is not mine, nor do I claim to have developed the mods. The term modpack is just a pack of mods that is available and is often allowed for people to include in their modpacks. This modpack was created using existing mods developed by their original authors. I don't create or modify the mods themselves; I develop the modpack experience by combining and configuring them to create an experience.

Known Issues

• Sheep's texture is not being rendered properly due to Fresh Animation trying to add texture features that is not supported with the default model.
• PC drops FPS when approaching busy villages. This is normal since there is a lot of entities' pathfinding and ticking. Just something to know if you're wondering "Why is my PC lagging?!" The same thing goes for entering certain biomes.
• Some mods don't behave as they should. Sometimes they'll spawn rarely or too often, sometimes they'll overlap with another. This is because this is a large modpack, and certain mods probably would interfere with each other. 
• Some music/sounds are very loud. Can be altered in settings/configs.
• The game can still sometimes crash without a crash report. Just know what you're doing.

There is probably more I've missed. If you found issues on your own, post them in the Comments.

PC Hardware Specs

There are no hardware specs lmao. Just have a computer capable of handling a lot of events, at least 16GB of RAM (with 8+ allocated to Minecraft), a GPU capable of running shaders on low settings or better, and minimal background activity. Make sure you close any open programs that may hinder performance.
Know your PC's capabilities before downloading this modpack, and expect 1000 FPS.
If you're experiencing performance issues, check your allocation, and maybe consider changing your game's resolution or removing shaders.

Thanks for reading! If you have ideas or encounter issues, or want to share feedback on how your experience is going, put it in the Comments or on my Discord server! Again, when commenting, ensure you specify your question, issue, and hardware you may have equipped in a kind, civil manner. I do not tolerate flamed comments, and your comment will result in a deletion.

The world may be insane, but you're not.
