add actual download links, touchup

Actually making the polymc instance is a bit manual, but it has the permanent url to the packwiz pack now, so should be pretty stable.

<h2>Is this still Minecraft?</h2>

We've optimized this for combat, exploring, and looting, because these are actually fun to do in VR.
The usual mining and crafting and building are still possible, but we've found that they just don't lend
themselves to actually moving your arms around; inevitably, everyone just logs on in flat mode instead.

If it's your first time playing, you'll get some books in your inventory that explain things.
Open them up to read them. We've also put up signs around the starting town to help you figure things out,
hopefully without ever opening the overlay or taking the headset off.

<h3>Is this still just Minecraft?</h3>
<p>
No. We've optimized this for combat, exploring, and looting, because these are actually fun to do in VR.
The usual mining and crafting and building are still possible, but we've found that they just don't lend
themselves to actually moving your arms around; inevitably, everyone just logs on in flat mode instead.

<h3>What's actually in the mod pack?</h3>
<p>See <a href=mods.html>the full modlist</a> for a nicely categorized list, with expandable full descriptions
and links to the modrinth pages.</p>

<h3>How is the modpack download so small?</h3>
<p>
The modpack doesn't actually have the jars in it. It uses <a
href="https://packwiz.infra.link/tutorials/installing/packwiz-installer/">packwiz-installer</a> to
actually download all the jars for you from modrinth, as well as keep the modpack up to date to the changes
we make in
<a href="https://git.vrg.party/hiina/minecraft-crawler">the git repository for the pack</a>.
It's a lot of autism, and packwiz ain't perfect, but it's a lot more maintainable than a directory full of
jars.
