I’ve been a bit curious about 1.21 and that so anyway here’s my teency weency questions:

1) are there any random ass wipes that are 1.21

2) what mods do I need beside Skyblocker Sodium and Nochangethegame (also like chat copy mod but eh)

Anyway if the poll says yes- after the week I will give a review of 1.21 sb
 
1) are there any random ass wipes that are 1.21
Nope. It will be a part of a foraging update which isn't here yet
2) what mods do I need beside Skyblocker Sodium and Nochangethegame (also like chat copy mod but eh)
Do you need like whole ass long list of performance mods?
Sodium. It is like optifine - if optifine was good (OF on modern versions causes only harm)
Concurrent Chunk Management Engine
Entity Culling
More Culling
Cull Leaves. There is a cooler mod that looks less ugly but it is not updated
Lithium
Iris Shaders. Yes having mod for shaders improves performance as long as you don't use shaders
ImmediatelyFast. Doubles your FPS if not more
Sodium Extra
Very Many Players
Particle Core
also nvidium if you have nvidia gpu 16xx (2018 year) or newer | Not updated to a recent version

Saved too much FPS and that 500+ FPS counter is annoying you? Wanna get fancy? Let's do it together!
Bobby. Must have "Dynamic World Management" enabled in config! After you set render distance to high values you can see whole skyblock world. It doesn't hurt FPS this much either...

Language Reload
QDAA. Anti-Aliasing if you need it (you probably do - as long as your PC doesn't run on coal)
Zoomify. Self-explanatory
Sound Controller. Let's you disable/lower some specific sounds
Remove Reloading Screen
Gamma Utils OR Methane. GU is just fullbright while methane is a cursed mod that just kills light engine for FPS. Yes, there is a difference - even with cracked gamma from full bright shading still works and it looks nicer
Dynamic FPS. Locks FPS to 15 when you are NOT at your minecraft window, saving you computing power (New version have built in FPS reduction)
Adaptive Tooltips. Aaron ported it to new version - you have to build it yourself (edit: it is now merged but still no official build for some godforsaken reason)

Aaron's mod. Mod for skyblock by one of maintainers of skyblocker. Has some niche skyblock stuff + M7 stuff
(also get all depends for those obviously)

UPD month later:
since I sometimes share this link to ppl as guide on "which mods do you get", here are links to sodium and NCTG:
UPD 2 like half a year after:
some mods are not updated so I marked that

NoChangeTheGame. Solves 99.5% of compatability issues with hypixel's servers that admins didn't fix. Will be useless once we get proper support tho | As for making this edit - not updated

You also need to get libraries and other depends those mods have. Good launcher will grab them for you, otherwise you just see which mod you lack.
You will probably need

uhh what are those
a way to lose a lot of FPS because this combo will give you that cancerous sidebar with items so you can, in theory, click on them for recipe. And items are expensive to draw because minecraft moment. Stuff like this is justifiable in content modpacks, not in game that has several ways of viewing recipes
/recipe <query> and recipe book in skyblock menu are a thing

I’ve been a bit curious about 1.21 and that so anyway here’s my teency weency questions:

1) are there any random ass wipes that are 1.21

2) what mods do I need beside Skyblocker Sodium and Nochangethegame (also like chat copy mod but eh)

Anyway if the poll says yes- after the week I will give a review of 1.21 sb
ive tried it, and i kind of like it. there are just a few more features i want on skyblocker but other than that it seems pretty solid

dont play dungeons on it though
 
That’s a lot of mods
yep. A lot more space for squeezing performance = more mods to do so
Damn now I gotta like look at what half of them do
in 1st block just get all they add FPS
in 2nd block they fix mojank moments like bad language handling or that stupid screen when you change resource pack
in 3rd block only major skyblock mod you missed

theres a skyblocker modpack on modrinth if you want to just easily download a whole bunch of mods
 
uhh what are those
Firmament
  • Item List of all SkyBlock Items
  • Grouping Items that belong together like minions
  • Recipe Viewer for Crafting Recipes
  • Recipe Viewer for Forge Recipes
  • Image Preview in chat
  • A storage overview (not a full on overlay that allows you to interact with all pages, but that is planned)
  • A crafting overlay when clicking the "Move Item" plus in a crafting recipe
  • Cursor position saver
  • Slot locking
  • Support for custom texture packs (loads item models from firmskyblock:<skyblock id> before the vanilla model gets loaded)
  • Fairy soul highlighter
  • A hud editor powered by Jarvis
  • Fishing Helper for Fishing particles (currently not working if you sneak because of 1.20 messing up positioning, but there will be a fix for that once i get confirmation by an admin that that fix is allowed)
  • Basic Config Gui (/firm config). Still needs improvement, but for the basics it's enough. You can also use /jarvis options to search through all config options

    Roughly Enough Items (REI)
  • Clean and Customizable. An easy way to browse recipes.

    But as @TheKingDucky said jsut download Skyblocker Modpack.
 
i used 1.21 once and the tentacle mobs's tentacles are steve's heads which is horrifying

here's an issue
  • Item List of all SkyBlock Items | expensive to render. We are here to gain FPS, not to lose them
  • Grouping Items that belong together like minions | if it is a part of previous feature then also big no
  • Recipe Viewer for Crafting Recipes | already in skyblock, /recipe <thing>
  • Recipe Viewer for Forge Recipes | on alpha, will be on main soon tm. Also pretty sure skyblocker were preparing like TWO prs that do recipe viewer
  • Image Preview in chat | images are gone. Also already in aaron's
  • A storage overview (not a full on overlay that allows you to interact with all pages, but that is planned) | already in skyblocker. Also "full overlay with all pages" is not only ugly (subjective), but also expensive (look at 1st thing in list)
  • A crafting overlay when clicking the "Move Item" plus in a crafting recipe | already in skyblock, /recipe <thing>
  • Cursor position saver | Already in Aaron's mod
  • Slot locking | Already in skyblocker. Also it is worse implementation than in skyblocker as skyblocker's one don't interfere with dungeons. Also both implementations are useless just use protect item
  • Support for custom texture packs (loads item models from firmskyblock:<skyblock id> before the vanilla model gets loaded) | Already in CIT Resewn, but it haven't updated past 1.20.4 so ig this is first not useless/not harmful thing in this mod. Congratulations!.. Until Skyblocker/Aaron's/CIT resewn updates to have it back
  • Fairy soul highlighter | Already in skyblocker
  • A hud editor powered by Jarvis | No image for this, huh? Also since when having config menu is a feature?
  • Fishing Helper for Fishing particles (currently not working if you sneak because of 1.20 messing up positioning, but there will be a fix for that once i get confirmation by an admin that that fix is allowed) | Working fishing helper already in skyblocker + do you even need one? Vanilla timer exists
  • Basic Config Gui (/firm config). Since when having config menu is a feature?
  • Not mentioned, but they also recommend DulkirMod - another mod that is fully outdated and should not be used. And none of them point at skyblocker, which is older than those and was around when none of those mods existed! L

    Roughly Enough Items (REI)
  • Clean and Customizable. An easy way to browse recipes. | I think I made my opinion on mods that spam your GUI with items pretty clear. This mod is used in fat content modpacks that you know, lack wiki, lack /recipe <query> and offer too many items to even try to remember their recipes
So yeah... One thing I hated in 1.8.9 is having few mods that intersect with 80% of each-other features so I have to go and disable that crap, keeping track of it. It was annoying. It was stupid. Only reason to install Firmament is to have texture packs working - and only because mod that does that better haven't updated yet and skyblocker dev team is focused on differnt things. Rest of features are either harmful or intersect with Aaron's or Skyblocker. And between Firmament and Aaron's mod choice is ultra obvious - and it is not in Firmament's favour

Hence reason why I don't recommend Firmament when people ask for mods to play new version
