"ORIGINAL MOD AUTHORS" are given credit for their work in a separate discussion.

"danielmratliff21" created this pack with "GUTS" and compiles various mods.

"CoreHowl" created the first picture used for our previous mod-packs and compiled "CoreMod Pack" and gave permission and inspiration to "danielmratliff21" who used it as a template to establish the first "Vanilla as it should have been".

"steffire3" assists with writing documents, photo-painting pictures, and various other tasks.

We appreciate all of your replies and suggestions; HUD's, UI's, and Big Bag forces everyone into a box that will always restrict somebody... we prefer to allow _all_ Users their choice of UI pack loaded alongside our mod pack.

We therefore prefer mods that _support_ everyone's mod choices rather than restrict them to override or work around a mod that blocks them from their prefered style.

We are thankful for any test feedback you can give us especially if this pack is compatible while in use above or below the HUD, UI, Storage, Overhaul, Gear, Drop, and Map mods of your choice and also give your opinion on how the mods inside Better Vanilla affect the balance of the game.

We certainly want this to have a functional 99% compatibility with Synergies (and without) and the class mods of anyone's choice... it's why we choose to focus on other aspects and leave UI's to individual decision.

I think it's worth stating that some mods included are intended to make the game easier by a %... for us it's a question of whether this "easier" is balanced and what action should we take to fix whatever issue there may be and if this is good for most everyone since it seems 1 of 10 visitors have subscribed to this mod pack and we try to consider as much of everyone's needs as possible while staying balanced.

Feel free to ask for that mod's removal since any mod deemed, voted, or felt to be too powerful by you and anyone who says so will be considered and with enough proof and feedback we will move that mod over to "Better Spicy".

Also remember that we are considering a "Bitter Difficult Game" for a much more oppressive and less rewarding experience for those who feel "Vanilla" is not hard enough.
