Datapacks take advantage of running something called Functions, many of which run every single tick. That is just how they have to work, what this plugin does, is take all the end results of each individual datapack in VanillaTweaks, and make it much more performant.
Each datapack/module can be individually toggled on/off for complete customization. All modules default to being disabled, so make sure you enable some!
This plugin is still being developed! As such, there are sure to be issues found. The faster someone reports an issue to the issue tracker, the faster it is fixed.

Excellent plugin! There's definitely a noticeable difference between how fast this runs compared to the datapack.
My one comment/request would be; can you add a permission for the ArmoredElytra module? I'd like the option for this to be something unlockable at higher ranks, and configurability is always a plus!
Thanks for a great plugin. =) -

great plugin, dev is a good dude
great for SMP servers, and the tag event is a good way to keep player engaged and active -

Exactly like the datapacks. But would you mind adding an option in the graves config to allow other players to loot your grave

This is great! I came looking for a working AFK display plugin since the datapack wouldn't work with some one of my other plugins. I've now replaced all my datapacks with this and it works flawlessly! And with slightly lower MSPT in identical situations! I just wish the mob head drops were configural per mob type, or at least wish I knew exactly how it functioned... It doesn't seem that mobs have to be player killed, but one of my players thinks there's a radius near the player involved?

good plugin, but I can't see the vanilla tweaks tab when I press "L". I looked in their discord and it said that's how you can configure it

Really nice plugin. Love the datapacks from VanillaTweaks.
and now I can use them as plugin. Only one little thing is a bit unfortunate.
t would be great, when we had the opportunity to enabel/disable the individual modules. This would make this plugin perfect. -

Phenomenal Plugin, I look forward to armor stands. This is definitely a great alternative to the datapacks!

Fantastic plugin, especially this early in its development! The only working version of the Tag game I've seen--the VanillaTweaks Datapacks don't work on many (all?) servers running paper. This? Works (as do all the other modules). Highly recommended.

What a great idea to recreate the best datapacks as a plugin! I'm excited to try out the Tag, not many plugins for a Tag game.
