Grunkle Steven’s Bees (for Minecraft 1.15)

This week saw the release of version 1.15 of Minecraft, and that means it’s time for a new modpack! Introducing Grunkle Steven’s Bees!

I’ve not only created a Technic modpack, but I’ve also been playing around with MultiMC, so you can import the modpack as a MultiMC instance (or download the zip) from here: https://git.faithcollapsing.com/GSBees/blob/master/GSBees.zip

I’ll be updating both versions simultaneously, so for example, when Optifine/Optifabric are updated, it will be added to both versions at the same time. You can find the full list of my modpacks at the Senor Wombat page. The full list of tweaks, mods, etc as of this time of writing is below!

And as always, join us online at MyMinecraft! (server: play.myminecraft.com)
