Misc Tweaks Mod (1.21.7, 1.20.1) is a lightweight, server- and client-compatible mod that brings much-needed polish to Minecraft without changing the game’s core identity. Available for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge, it introduces small but powerful adjustments that patch annoying inconsistencies and quality-of-life issues. Whether you’re managing a multiplayer server, assembling a modpack, or playing solo, Misc Tweaks quietly improves the game in ways you didn’t realize you needed until you have them.
From fixing creeper explosions and berry bush damage to improving Elytra mechanics and rebalancing armor durability, the mod focuses on reducing frustration without overhauling gameplay. With customizable options and tag-based tweaks, Misc Tweaks is especially useful for modpack creators and minimalist players who want a smoother Minecraft experience without straying from vanilla balance.
