  I’ve used both of those mods and they’re great. These days I use a pre-built modpack like “fabulously optimized” to update and include all the mods for me. (there are tons of similar packs like this). Those can still play on vanilla servers.

  Avoid the “steam deck” modpacks, as many of them are abandoned or straight up don’t run at all. Stick to the very popular, well-tested packs if you do use a modpack at all.

    Although it’s been half a year, that was the route I went with as well. Fabulously Optimized is a great place to start as a base for making ones own custom modpack.

  There’s also a couple modpacks on Modrinth for the deck that include Controlify alongside some graphics mods to make things run smoothly: modrinth.com/…/minecraft-steam-deck-edition

    I chose not to include them since they aren’t updated frequently, and in my experience often require the user to do some fiddling.

      I mean, Prism makes it dead simple, probably moreso than even just a single mod because you can do it from the “Create Instance” menu.

        Yes, but then you need to go in and change out some of the mods that aren’t up-to-date, which for some users is intimidating.
