Vanilla Refresh Mod aims to improve the vanilla Minecraft experience by adding small quality-of-life features. These features range from simple things like player sitting to more complex features like player souls.
Vanilla Refresh Features:
Drop Ladder: This allows the players to extend the length of a ladder down and hang midair by pressing sneak while on a ladder.
Player Sitting: One of the most popular features of Vanilla Refresh is player sitting. This allows players to sit down on blocks.
Subtitles on Biome Discovery: Players will see the name or category of a biome when they first discover it.
Daycounter: keeps track of the number of days that have passed on the server.
Mob Health Display: Displays the health of a mob near you above your hotbar
Homing Experience Orbs: Experience orbs will fly straight to the players, making it easier to collect them.
Better Armor Stands: This feature allows players to customize armor stands. Players can now give armor stands arms and change their poses, which can be used to create all sorts of creative displays.
Spectator Ghost and Spectator Actions: Players can now see other players as ghosts and they can also use a UI to spectate a random player or exit spectator mode.
Tips: Gives players helpful Minecraft tips every 10 minutes. These tips can be about anything from crafting recipes to mod tips.
Player Statistics: Give a variety of statistics about the server-tracked events. These statistics can include things like the number of blocks mined, the number of mobs killed, and the number of items crafted.
Wither Drops Head: Players can now collect the Wither’s head as a trophy. This can be a great way to show off your victory over the Wither.
