Alternative video title “All the Minecraft mods you wanted as a kid but didn’t know how to install at the time”
Edit: I miss “More Creeps and Weirdos”
Facts... 💀
Damn dude, that hit me hard...
Or couldn’t cause you were stuck on the console editions
Or you tried and install viruses instead
I got around three viruses trying to download the Dragon Mounts mod. I kept clicking the "DOWNLOAD" button advertisements instead of the actual download button... Yeah, I learned my lesson.
I find the random letters found in the herobrine mod absolutely hilarious, especially the letter H, H is a funny letter. E is too but its overrated so i like it a little bit less
The E has the clasic factor due to adamzonetopmarks/gamechap making it a meme, but H is also good
Amen, good ole gamechap and bertie, I can remember them yelling "EEEEEEEE"
@@tefnutofhoney2832they made E funny long before it was a meme
̴̗̠͙͇̼̹̩̼̑̿͘Ẹ̸̟͈̀̋̈͝ ̴̨̖̲͓̳͉͆
I remember a meme video where it was a clip where two British guys were freaking out about herobrine, a big E appeared and they just panicked while saying “E!”
One mod I haven't seen mentioned here that I fondly remember is Millénaire. It added really cool villages with various cultures and NPC trading way before that was a proper thing in vanilla. And the villagers would use the stuff you traded them to build new structures or upgrade existing ones etc. that was so cool.
That mod is now known as Minecolonies i think
@@ChickenKinglolz Different mod. Millénaire had real life cultures put into the game.
Does it still exist?
@@najawin8348minecolonies was built off of millenairs, but they abandoned the cultures idea I think
@@sly_cat No it wasn't both mods were developed at the same time, the last update for Millénaire was in 2022, the reason that mod stopped being developed was because it was extremely buggy (and overall just old, every mod eventually dies I mean look at thaumcraft). Also both mods are structured differently on what they add to the game. Sure they both add villages but one mod is about building reputation with cultures where the other is about making a colony that builds the village.
I remember the mod "Tales of Kingdoms" where you had to build up a castle you ruled and went out fighting monsters and rescuing npcs (this was before villagers were a thing, mind you) and it was just soooo much fun.
Only problem was that your computer would probably freeze up for a bit when you made a new world bc the game had spawn this ginormous castle near you
I was legit watching this and saw the clay soldiers mod and was trying to remember the name of this pack.
Thanks!!!
Didn't captain sparkles do a whole let's play of this with the giant tree? Damn I couldn't find this forever. Great job with your memory that's nuts
Craft Crossing.
@@Pemberries199I know Paul did a play through
the Clay Soldiers mod was the first mod I ever downloaded, spent at least an hour and a half trying to figure it out. I wish it was still being updated for the latest game versions :(
"Clay Soldiers Reborn" exists, but I haven't tried it. Looks to be much smaller in scope atm, but it is updated for forge and fabric 1.20.1.
@@gammaboy4568it’s still a good amount of the items, however as far as I know there aren’t any mounts yet
i used to do small citites for my clay people.
i also played with the gulliver mod and make myself tiny so i could walk among my people
@@joaquinfernandez3977 same );
I also liked to make arenas with hazards from other mods. When mowzie's mobs was still in its infancy, I made a whole jungle arena just to fill the pit with carnivorous plants.
@@joaquinfernandez3977 I miss the clay soldiers civilization project series
Don’t forget that when manually installing mods into the .jar file you always had to remove META.INF
BROOOOOOOOOO you just brought me back in time
i remember removing the meta inf every time as a kid. i remember the viruses i sometimes got, it honestly what taught me to be careful when downloading and installing things.
I am glad it is not that bad anymore.
i remember doing a virus scan on my old shitty laptop i used to play minecraft on at like 15fps and it was like 7000 viruses found. i also used to try and mod Wizard101 for infinite crown coins cause i was a child and couldnt afford the $5 a month membership lmao. i remember i used to make mod downloading tutorials and texture pack tutorials using good old paint to make your own textures
Anyone else remember replacing char.png to get a different skin? Take me back 😭😭
I remember the Orespawn Mod.
Absolutely chaotic.
But also quite beautiful in a unique way.
Good Times
Never got to play it sadly but it looked ridiculous
@HollywoodExile there might be old downloads somewhere if you do some searching, or if you play an old modpack with the jar
@@ThorinDoesStuff the creator is a massive dick for not releasing it free for a while
I sadly missed it when it was around. Only learned about it because there were some big controversies surrounding it, with some people straight up hating it for some reason
@@BierBart12 I heard the mod author is like a totally crazy conspicuous theorist or something
Honestly even today the Zeppelin mod blows me away, what a cool mod
You should try "eurika! ships!" Works the same way
I had no idea the Zepellin mod already had down the full block and entity interaction with the ships, every successor to that mod wasn't able to recreate that up until just very recently
Yeah with Eureka/Valkyrie Skies! I used to play around with Archimedes ships but this new built-from-the-ground-up successor is just so much better. I had no idea about the original original mod, though!
Valkryien skies has been doing it for roughly 7 years. It just wasn’t well known until not too long ago.
@@rayk7307it also was very unstable until recently
It was actually stable for quite a while. The new Valkyrien Skies is a new mod, not just an updated version of the original. It started off with the name Valkyrien Skies 2 before the modders decided to drop the "2".
It causes quite a bit of confusion IMO. I think it's a big part of why the original is so overlooked/forgotten.
@@shrilleth
Along with making blocks turn and not be in the same orientation like always, neat, ideas of it are blooming.
I want a modern equivalent to the clay soldiers mod, to be honest.
That would be so freaking amazing
Clay soldiers has an updated port from versions 1.18.2 - 1.20.1. It's called Clay Soldiers Reborn and has both fabric and forge versions
CustomNPCs could also fit the role theoretically, although it might be difficult to set up.
i want to make a datapack now
Totally accurate battle simulator in Minecraft
Too Many Items was a game changer, EVERY single Minecraft CZcamsr I watch had it at one point, until it slowly got left behind
Anyone remember shape shifter mod?
I think the morph mod is still around
I've always loved the Clay Soldiers mod. I always found it so creative, and I really feel it could've gone places. Such a neat and cute mod...
The Herobrine mod holds a special place for me, because when I was like 12-13 I installed it, and then was also trying to make survival challenge maps to post on Planetminecraft. So I had made a disc world with endless void beyond its border to build on with Worldpainter, right? Well, I got the portal Herobrine, which sends you to a random location. But because the world was endless void outside the disc, I was literally sent out of the world, and it broke my view. I couldn't move and my arm was detached and rendered weird. It scared the shit out of me, but it's REALLY fucking funny in retrospect now. Also when I went to uninstall it, I broke my installation because I was a dumbass with the editing of files etc, so mobs were invisible for me and I had to delete my folders fully and fresh install.
Makes me wonder how many video game creepy pastas were spawned by kids fucking up their ame files trying to mod, or just weird niche bugs that happened and scared the shit out of a 10 year old lmao. Probably a lot.
I remember i accidentally corrupted the textures in my world trying to mod it and i thought it was herobrine, as always.
There's a modern herobrine mod thats arguably one of the mosth faithful towards the classic myth. It's called From the fog and it's genuinely fucking scary. It showcases how scary herobrine could be if he's basically a passively aggresive eldritch entity that only stalks you from a distance or tne corner of your peripheral vision. I extremely recommend that mod if you'd like a lingering sense of dread in your playthroughs. It's highly customizable and the most extreme of configs could even allow it tae outright crash your game.
Seeing the portal mod really takes me back. Valve games had such a chokehold on internet culture back then. Sure, they're still really big, I feel like the widespread popularity of the portal mod for minecraft really shows off that their popularity was on a different scale back then. God, and adventure maps. I have so many good memories of playing through them with my friends when we were younger. Makes me wonder why they died off - the mapping tools for minecraft are better than ever. Maybe it's just a natural progression. I was glad to see you bring up planet minecraft, too. I remember using that site a lot back then, and I still do whenever I'm looking for resource packs and stuff. I'm not as in touch with the minecraft fanbase as I used to be, so I had no clue that most players don't touch the game's files at all when installing mods. Crazy how things have changed, but it's probably for the better. It makes modding more accessible.

clay soldiers gave me so many flashbacks
what a throwback! tbh the old mods were so cool!! especially the "complex" ones with so much content and stuff to know about like thaumcraft or IC2. I remember feeling like the coolest witch after making the sword of zephyr! now most mods are pretty similar, and most modpacks are basically the same but with a slightly different questbook, and sometimes a slightly different take on the same "skyblock" idea...
Sometimes it can get a bit annoying but personally I find that there's juuuust enough outliers that you can pick that the majority of the similar FTB packs are fine. If anything I really enjoy quest books because they let you pin goals straight to your HUD which really helps with staying engaged but there are still those few outliers such as the crashed spaceship sandblock or FTB Continuum with it's primarily Project E(X) and Avartia centered focuses
@@lotion5238agreed I don't rlly think just because a lot of packs are similar in concept it's necessarily a bad thing
Aside a few years when i was a kid playing pocket edition (with mods often times), i always struggled to be into minecraft.
I've spent close to a decade watching minecraft youtubers, learning about minecraft, different parts of it be it modding or multiplayer etc.
But the past 6 or so years i really struggled to find ways to enjoy minecraft. Including finding modpacks i'd enjoy, because i knew that what i would find enjoyable would be extremely niche.
And then my friend recommended me Vault hunters, and i found Vault hunters 3 skyblock version. And honestly, i fell in love with it? I haven't progressed much but it almost perfectly fits what i wanted from modded minecraft.
Skyblock, somewhat linear progression, quests to follow, not focusing on tech based mods which i find boring personally.
It's still a "play when nothing else to do" kind of experience but i'm glad i found something that makes me actively enjoy playing minecraft.
In large part because the whole vault system is quite novel and interesting.
Man didn't disciver Nomnifactory self torture edition, it's a big tech modpack with the focus on automation and progression.
i used to take the Agrarian Skies modpack and just throw in a bunch of mods i liked, and i felt good when i figured out how to fix Forge Microblocks to make it work with most of the blocks it couldn't interact with before.
I would also add Mo Creatures, More Creeps and Weirdos and old Aether. You brought me co much nostalgia ngl. Great video.
Mo Creatures! I really liked that one.
RIP Aether mod. Gone but not forgotten 😞
@@itssandman2u it just returned?
More Creeps and Weirdos...dude you unlocked a Core Memory with that one
I think Mo Creatures was the first ever mod I saw 😮 Mo creatures, More Creeps and Weirdos is such a throw back ❤
Your music is a little loud in the audio mix, but a great video otherwise! Loved seeing some of these mods again, or for the first time. I spent countless hours just messing around with mods in singleplayer when I was a kid.
I remember watching so many of these mods showcased by Antvenom back in the day. Nice video!
man I remember these including elemental creepers and especially clay soldiers. I must have been so obsessed with that last one. was genuinely one of the best mods ever.
I still vividly remember how the mods work, mostly in version 1.7.10 of Minecraft. Those were the days, playing mods on a less powerful computer. Engaging with mods triggers a sense of nostalgia in me, and I'm glad to watch this video.
I've been sinking dozens of hours into the old crash landing modpack for 1.6.4
@@hoonfox5087dude that one’s so good. I just started replaying it again today
All my homies remember the silver age that was 1.7.10
We all dreamed of having friends in a server with Flans and having a fun war RP, or experienced the true birth of modpacks.
Woah thats right, why was 1.7.10 so popular with modding?
@@narnex3179 It was the longest lasting version of Minecraft, there was over a year with no updates due to the Microsoft acquisition.
This video is nostalgic trip, i remember seeing old Minecraft CZcamsrs showing off and using these.
Man this brought back some great memories I’d totally forgotten about. In my first ever modded world I used the gulliver’s mod with the clay soldiers and a small block mod to create arenas for the clay soldiers to fight in and I’d join in to help my colour.
from all the mods here, i feel like Clay soldiers were something everyone played back then, forgot about it after 10 years and now felt soo much nostalgia
God I used to LOVE the Clay Soliders mod, I would play around with it for hours just getting them to build their own homes(by putting logs in chests I think?) and having a cute little civilization. I miss that mod so much, I'd give anything for it to be updated again
On curseforge there's an update for 1.12. Not the latest, but still something
@@zoruauser 1.12 is like the definitive version for mods so
One of my favourite mods was The Spider Queen Mod, I remember downloading and playing that for so long, was up there with Clay Soliders. The ideas and stuff implemented with Spider Queen was so cool to me as a kid and I still think about it fondly nowadays
More Creeps and Weirdos was an amazing mod back in the day, and there wasn't quite any other mod like it.
Seeing all the wacky unfiiting mobs and structures to boot livened up the game so much.
I remember when i played mods for the first time, my parents had installed tekkit on our computer so i made one of the buildcraft quaries in creative mode because i had seen it in a video and thought it was the coolest thing ever, then i did that and then i found a nuke block and i wanted to see what would happen if i were to blow up like 20 of them at the same time and then the computer crashed because of that...
My favorite older mods, the first one I ever played with, was something called buildcraft. It had chunk destroying quarries and little flying robots. It also had pipes and you could see as items traveled through them. I played it for so long and was so annoyed when it was no longer updated.
I think there is build craft for the latest versions now
@@airgeadlamh The latest version it was on was 1.12. There's news of it being updated for Fabric for modern versions, but that project has been going on for years, so I'm not holding my breath. Still, there are plenty of 1.7 and 1.12 packs that make good use of it that are tons of fun to play even today!
I think dan had that included in the diamond dimensions
If you weren't there for IC2/BC/RC/Forestry servers, you've missed a lot. Still one of my favorite combinations.
I loved it, if you liked their quarry, you might wanna check out quarry plus
All of these mods are so nostalgic to me and I remember using every one of them! Takes me back to a time when mods felt really magical. I still love them, but now they almost feel too polished if that makes sense.
oh man, Clay soldiers and zeppelin mod were a huger part of my childhood. This is really unlocking some old forgotten memories haha
There's actually a pretty cool mod similar to Zeppelin for modern minecraft called Valkyrien Skies, however, you will need the Eureka! expansion for it to make it compatable with survival.
I have that mod downloaded, it’s really cool and works very similarly and you can make boats and airships respectively with it
There's been a few versions of the mod over the years. Zeppelin, Davinci's Vessels, Valkyrien Skies like you mentioned. I feel like I'm forgetting one though.
Airship Mod@@0osk
Archimedes Ship as well@@0osk
The cool thing about Valkyries skies is that it's a library mod, meaning that any mod can hook into it and create something that uses physics.
The music is a bit loud, but the video is fast paced and engaging, and your narration is good
I love to see people giving actual good feedback
I remember most of these!!
This was a trip down memory lane, thank you!!
Oh my gosh this takes me back so far into my child hood watching people use these mods and seeing full playthroughs of it
Loved getting nostalgic about this. I remember deleting many METAINFS. As for old mod suggests there's the old equivalent exchange mod, mo'creatures mod, planes mod, moon mod, scuba mod, smart moving mod, tv mod and little blocks (big one). I also think it'd be cool to do an old adventure map video, stuff like deep space turtle chase and the super hostile series.
So im not nostalgic for playing the mods themselves, but im nostalgic for watching youtubers play these, and this is giving vibes to like mod showcases but with the new minecraft video style and I love it, great video man
Aww man. I really enjoyed this because I wanted to see some of these old Minecraft mods and I remember the clay soldiers mod and it brings back so many memories.
Back around 1.2 or so, around when the Ocelots were added, there was one mod I used that I absolutely loved called the freerunning mod. It added the ability to climb walls of differing block types, charge a jump to reach higher ledges to climb, even added haybales to drop into like Assassin's creed. It was really cool but they stopped updating it by the next version and never picked it up again. Closest I could get to it was the SMART parkour mod but that didn't do it the same way.
Bro, seeing this hit me with a massive wave of nostalgia. I remember looking up how to get mods on Xbox. Watching old minecraft mod reviews, playing on the first version of Xbox 360 minecraft. Those were the days
Nice throwback to a bunch of old memories!! I'd love to see a part two to this with stuff like the gullivers travel mod or maybe the original aether dimension!! keep it up!
I remember at one point in my life, my goal was to finally get mods running! It took me until I was 14 to finally figure out how to add actual mods and get forge running, but when I did, my face lit up with so much joy when I saw that after years of trying to get it to work and years of seeing DanTDM and Popularmmos vids on mods, it finally worked-that joy that I felt-and I still feel that joy to this very day!
Duuuuude this takes me back, I remember watching so many mod showcases back in the day from CZcamsrs like SkydoesMinecraft, PopularMMOs and folks like that.
Very well done editing and good to see people still care about the past, hope to see more.
Clay soldiers is so cute. I wanna get this and build little battle arenas for them to bet on fights in SMP hehe
that's what people did with them. There should be some videos on CZcams that you can watch
One of the mods I loved few year's ago was Morph when you can turn into any mobs you killed. The rush to a cave in the first second just to kill a bat and can fly a few second before get one shot by as arrow shot by a random skeleton... the good time
The first mod I ever played was Tinker’s Constructs, in 1.6. I vividly remember triumphantly figuring out how to install it after like a month of not knowing what to do because I was like 9. Super nostalgic for me
ah the portal gun mod... good memories
“our friend will start walking over here and.. explode and kill it until it’s dead.”
Yes, that’s what “killing it” means.
What a nostalgia trip, I discovered minecraft a few versions before they added the pistons, and I did play every single one of those mods, that's so awesome
This video is so nostalgic I literally remember watching old mod videos when I was a kid and I even had some of these myself
i love finding these gems on my yt recommended
Dude I just wanna tell you that the pacing and script of your video is extremely well done. Your commentary is really pleasant and relevant. You demonstrate the mod in an entertaining way without dragging out or overexplaining. Great video. I love the subtle dry humor. Very pleasant watch
Man, I remember seeing all of these mods back in the day as well. Captain Sparklez, the Diamond Minecart, and SSundee were all the mod showcasers I watched and these mods were the bomb. Elemental creepers was probably one of my favorites as well. I guess more complex mods are still awesome, but seeing this makes me want to just put together a bunch of individual mods I like. Thanks for showing these off
Man this was a blast from the past. One of the mods I remember was the micro blocks mod that let you build using blocks up to 1/16 the size of a regular block, letting you make stuff like detailed furniture and dioramas.
I watch a lot of videos like this but not ones from new creators I don't already watch, amazing video man, I'm subscribed!
ohhhhh i miss the creepers mod ... i can remember it being everywhere on youtube too . and i liked the editing btw!! waiting to see more from u:D
This brought back a ton of memories of messing around with the Zeppelin mod and Single Player Commands.
I’ve played every single one of these mods, except for the pistons, and this video brought me so much nostalgia. I even still call JustEnoughItems/NotEnoughItems "TooManyItems". Thank you
I remember watching all the mod showcases for these mods when I was a kid. Thanks for bringing back those memories
these mods are so nostalgic remember seeing them in modded lets plays also damn good taste in music you have
Oh my god the nostalgia that suddenly came
I used to love those mods and played with pretty much every mod on this video except the creeper one
zeppelin is still my favorite single mod, it really was mindblowing seeing it for the first time and realizing something like that was even possible
I remember playing the shit out of the portal gun mod, and elemental creepers was the first ever mod review I watched on CZcams (fairly sure it was AntVenom's review at that haha)
ahhh this video sure brought back some memories of absolutely borking the game when installing mods on my pirated copy of minecraft 😭
I love the Elemental Creepers mod! It's a relatively simple mod that, at the same time, adds so much personality to the game :)
Oh the Clay Soldier Mod brings me back! Didn't even have minecraft yet but watched a lot of Mod Showcases, and was amazed at that one! I wrote down hundreds of short links to all my favourite mods to one day install when i got minecraft. Obviously they were all, deactivated once i got it but still
I loved this video, I like the idea of old mods reviews and your way of explaining things
Underrated! Keep up the great work I heavily enjoyed the video
I love this, and i am excited for more content from you
Bro the clay soldiers mod just unlocked a memory!!! Had so much fun with that mod. Super advanced for its time imo
God, the elemental creeper mod. It brings me right back to the old days of uberhaxornova's tri mountain survival series. That things been stuck in my brain for more than a decade.
Great video, very nostalgic! However I feel like the music was too loud at times, and you were constantly fighting to talk over it.
i really liked this video! you should do a part two with the aether mod or the too much tnt mod or even the og lucky block mod :)
holy crap dude, this is insane. the wave of nostalgia. i was just a lil kid watching stampy and squid and all that. i remember watching the. crazy craft series. i always wanted to play this game, best thing i ever played!
Man this video was a throwback, thank you
this is so nostalgic.... the clay soldiers are really bringing back strong memories. also, does anyone else think the music tracks in this video are too loud? I'm struggling a little bit to hear what he's saying but idk if it's my computer or something
This nostalgia trip was WILD, thanks
I remember really liking the Nexus mod and watching so many videos of people’s bases to try and fight off the attacking mobs! The Clay Soldiers mod was always one of my favourite too
Clay soldiers will always remain as personal favourites of mine. That mod was very unique even for its time, such a great canister of old Minecraft moding
The herobrine jumpscare at the end made me jump hahahaha
Clay soldiers? Clay RACISM
Claycism
Great video! Would love a part 2 to this.
God i remember so manny of these.
I guess i am going to go watch some mod reviews from the time.
Basicly part of my childhood.
Adventure maps and mod reviews feel so forgoten now.
100 days now trend more than mod reviews , and i haven't played an adventure map in a while.
I can remember one of my favourite youtubers back in the day was making clayman batles for a while.
Such a weird bunch of memories.
DIRT!
I think the most memorable mod from the beta days, to me, was the Mo Creeps and Weirdos mod. Wonder what the creator is up to nowadays.
Insane nostalgia for that one
Lovely trip down memory lane, definitely a stand-out for me was Lycanites Mobs (now Schism).
Omg Clay Soldier was such a throwback, i LOVED THAT MOD SO MUCH, i made coliseums for them
9:00 man that mod was advanced for its time. Not even today do we have a mod like it where you can have moving structures THAT YOU CAN MOVE AROUND ON. Every mod after Zeppelin that was made for aircraft or moving ships has failed miserably when it comes to the player being able to walk around perfectly.
Idk much about the Create mod but can't you do something similar with that mod?
ok
I loved the Clay Soldiers game so much, thank you for the beautiful reminder and nostalgia
Fantastic CZcams channel, I saw your other video about the old server before this one and assumed you had loads of subs. This content is very impressive for someone who is so new to the platform, keep it up and you could easily be 100k before the year is over, if not 250k.
14:20 HEoBaiN!1!?1!1!1??

Clay soldiers was one of my favorite mods of all time. My friends and I would build competing cities and once they got close enough to each other, the war would begin and it was glorious.
Holy wow clay soldiers was so nostalgic, I played with all of these mods back then but I totttttally forgot about that one
What got me into watching CZcams during my 10-11 year old years were Minecraft Mod showcase Videos specifically remembered watching someone build an airship with the zeppelin mod and used flan’s ww2 mod for the guns, a lot of clay soldiers vs challenges, and the old nexus Invasion mod with castle defenders as the defenders
Mo Creatures was my first Minecraft mod and it holds a very special place in my heart as well as the Witchery mod and Pam’s Harvestcraft
I remember playing all of them! There were a few more things I used to do like more tnt which my old pc barely could handle.
But clay soldiers would be amazing to have them back plus building an arena with chisel
The little clay dudes! I fucking adored that mod, building little arenas for them, throwing items on the ground to test what they'd pick up.
Watching then _slaughter each other_ for my amusement.
