Extra Eeveelutions [Cobblemon]
Extra Eeveelutions is a Minecraft datapack for Cobblemon that expands Eevee’s evolution family with 11 fan made forms representing types that do not have an official Eeveelution. Each addition brings its own identity, evolution conditions, visual model, statistics, and battle potential, giving trainers more meaningful choices while exploring or building a team on a Minecraft server.Designed for Java Edition, the pack works alongside Cobblemon and includes support for custom learnsets and TM moves in its published release. Our BoxToPlay team recommends it to players who want fresh collection goals, unusual strategies, and a broader Eevee experience.
No Caves
No Caves is a collection of Minecraft Java Edition datapacks that changes underground world generation by preventing selected cave systems from appearing. Choose the option that removes every cave, disables the newer noise caves introduced with the Caves and Cliffs update, or keeps those while stopping the older carver caves.This flexible world generation tool suits creative building, controlled survival challenges, and adventure maps where large underground openings are unwanted. It works in singleplayer and server side environments across supported Minecraft versions from 1.18 through 1.21.x. Our BoxToPlay team recommends it for a cleaner terrain profile and more predictable mining on a Minecraft server.

Recipes can be checked through JEI, making experimentation easier for solo players and communities. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for servers seeking a more cohesive culinary experience without changing the core identity of CobbleCuisine.
Darceno's Minecarts
Darceno’s Minecarts is a server side Minecraft datapack for Java Edition that makes railways a practical transportation option again. It increases the speed of minecarts carrying a player or mob, while chest minecarts also benefit from improved movement. A slower speed variant is available for servers that prefer a more vanilla feeling.Minecarts with passengers and chest minecarts can load nearby chunks while traveling on rails, letting them transport entities or supplies over long distances without a player nearby. The pack also improves powered rail crafting yields and leaves empty and utility minecarts largely untouched. At BoxToPlay, we see it as a useful addition for connected bases and automated logistics.
Craftable Nametag

At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for communities that want more freedom to personalize their bases, farms, and animal collections.

This community driven fork focuses on exploration and scenery without adding items, mobs, or gameplay systems, making it a flexible choice for our BoxToPlay server experiences.

A progress bar tracks the next drop, while custom mode allows timing changes.

It brings atmosphere and discovery to any Minecraft server while preserving the classic game style. BoxToPlay makes this maritime adventure easy to enjoy in a server world.
Fortunate Ancient Debris
Fortunate Ancient Debris is a Minecraft datapack that changes how ancient debris rewards are obtained in survival.
