Mod Information

Today’s mod is the Supplementaries mod. It is not really a mod to build a modpack around, but it is certainly a welcome addition to any modpack. I have come to use it in all of my survival worlds. This is but one of a series of videos that look at some of the mods that I am using in my games.  You may find that these are worth a look for use in your own games.

A deep dive is probably closer to a tutorial video than a showcase video… but it has elements of both while not exactly being either.  These are more like explanations of what is possible with each mod and are really intended to help you figure out what a mod does… or does not do… and whether it would be a good fit for your game.

I also want to point out that these videos will be directed  from the point of view of PC users using a keyboard and mouse and otherwise running with default settings.   If you running on a Mac or console, or use a gamepad on the PC some of the control options and elements will undoubtedly be different, but the functionality demonstrated should still be valid.

The mod can be found on CurseForge:

I strongly encourage you to go download the mod and try it for yourself.  If you like it, please reach out to the mod owner and let them know.  It is always good for mod authors to hear that all their efforts are appreciated and enjoyed and used. It keeps them going and of course, that means more great mods to choose from in the future.

Music

Ever since I watched The Sting as a child, I have loved Ragtime music. However, I am not a musician, composer, or even a particularly knowledgeable fan of music. I enjoy what I enjoy and that includes many different genres of music. However, Ragtime is the soundtrack for the era I am simulating and this may the first time that modern listeners may be exposed to it. So I am including a general Ragtime link.

 

Additional music was obtained from RagsRag.com, a site run by Ragnar Hellspong of Krusenberg, Sweden. He has spent considerable time collecting Ragtime resources and has graciously made them freely available on his site. Please take a look.
