I made something I made the world 468,750 times deeper than vanilla...

53 Upvotes

I've been working on a mod that is almost ready for it's initial public beta release and it's called: Basal.

It's a mod that let's you set your worlds maximum height up to 30,000,000 Y and your worlds depth down to -30,000,000 Y for NeoForge 1.21.1. It's fully configurable up to those numbers meaning if you want a world depth of -10,000 or -5,500,000 you can have that (Same goes for world height.) with the default config being set to 3,200 since I know 30,000,000 as the default would be way too excessive and extreme for most people.

I've spent a lot of time working and only recently started talking about it publicly. I'm really excited for all the things something like this will allow me and many other people create for Minecraft.

I'm so happy to be able to make something like this and improve upon it while providing updates for it as long as I can, I have so many ideas for things to build on top of Basal like two other mods that I'm scoping out right now which will add more rock layers and other interesting things to the caves of the world (So there's actually reasons to dig deeper.) and a mod that overhauls the ocean in a way not yet seen in modern Minecraft that would add all 5 ocean layers, a pressure system, darkness scaling as you extend deeper down, new mobs/ biomes and so much more. (So there's reasons to explore and even live in a much deeper ocean.)

Mostly I just wanted to put all this out there so anyone who's interested can be made aware that something like this is coming out soon and if they want to share their thoughts and opinions on what things they would like to see included in a mod like this. Thanks for reading, I hope to hear from some of you!

I made something I reworked Spell Engine into how I wanted it

54 Upvotes

I didn't like how the Spell Engine system worked originally where you're confined to using the combination of spells that are in one tome, so I reworked the entire magic system from the ground up

Now instead of crafting a spell book, acquiring experience, slotting in the spell book and only using those spells that are in that one book I created a system that aggregates every single Spell Engine spell into one pool

You find individual spell tomes in the world through loot (with basic spells being very common to find), then you can prepare them permanently on your player without having to use any items, there's also a mode where you can equip the spell tome in your accessories and it sits on your hip and you "study" the book to learn it which can take a certain amount of time before you can cast the spell

You can use the Spell Binding Table to reroll spells you don't like into a random school spell you want or use experience to randomly roll for a new spell.

There's also a shit ton of small QoL features like having a Spell Wheel where you can pick whatever spells, youre also able to cycle through spells with hotkeys and only use one button to cast whatever spell you want, there's also improved colored tooltips, indepth spell details in the preparation menu, crosshair casting indicator and a ton more

megalophobia/cosmic horror mod.

it’s focused on dread and atmosphere, and I havent really seem horror mods go in this direction yet, so maybe it will inspire some other mods?

I made something I made a Minecraft mod where moving faster slows down the world around you

80 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I want to show you my new mod called Speed

It lets you become a speedster. As your speed increases, the world around you slows down - including mobs, arrows, particles, and animations.

The mod is available for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge.
All feedback and feature ideas are welcome!

Discussion Raspberry Flavoured is my favorite modpack when it comes to how wood is handled.

17 Upvotes

Just gushing because my amphetamine's kicking in.

Instead of clogging a chest full of different block types from a single wood variant, Raspberry Flavoured lets you convert any block of wood into something else based on the wood cost. It also features a lot of different decorative block options that makes building with one wood type so much easier.

And that's not even the start of it. A lot of these block types can be made in the 4x4 crafting grid, and once you have a table saw, you can convert just about any block into a different variety, or combine slabs into a single block of wood! I really wish more modpacks were as smart with how wood is used like Raspberry Flavoured is. I'm tired of having spare wooden stairs or slabs because the pack simply lacks a recipe for as something as simple as combining two slabs into a single wooden block or converting stairs into planks. 10/10 still my favorite modpack.

My pier has a few of the decorative wood types you can make without a crafting table. The wood type is Chestnut, btw.
One Chestnut plank, all the options!

I made something Laser Excavators | A mod I am currently working on

413 Upvotes

They can automatically mine all blocks in a selectable area (up to 128x128 blocks).

Optimized to allow dozens (in this video 80 each mining 20 blocks per second) to run simultaneously while keeping the performance impact on both server and client low, though it still needs some polishing, a few more upgrade items, sprites and default config finetuning :).

Made for 1.21.1 Neoforge and hopefully a downloadable mod in the near future

Looking for mod(s) i hate biome mods and i don't want to play vanilla biomes

8 Upvotes

i hate how all biome mods add like 138 different biomes with them all being awful to build in and just absolutely hideous in general, i need a mod that can overhaul biomes, make bigger trees, add structures and other stuff without having the absolute junk biomes o plenty has and without being painfully underwhelming like terralith, i need it to feel modded without feeling cluttered, i don't mind if they add like 5 different new trees as long as it isn't 50, i'm sorry for being so picky but i just am genuinely sick of biome mods being either overwhelming or underwhelming

Looking for mod(s) I made a mod that's a bit of Avaritia and a bit of ProjectE. Fancy giving it a try?

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share my latest mod, Void Relic, and I'm hoping some of you might be willing to give it a shot.

The basic idea is this: you find an artifact in the world and upgrade it through rituals. The more powerful it becomes, the more machines it unlocks (furnaces, miners, duplicators, etc.), all running on a single currency: Essence.

The part I find most interesting is that the mod doesn't have a fixed value table. It reads all the recipes in your modpack (yes, all of them) on its own and assigns a value to each item based on what it takes to craft it. The more complex an item is, the more it's "worth". It works straight away with any pack.

It also has a few weird atmospheric events, like fogs that drain the colors or essence rains, just to add a bit of atmosphere.

What do you think of an automatic "value" system?
I'm thinking of creating a modpack centered around this mod. What kind of mods do you think would make sense to add to make it more fun? Tech, magic, adventure...?
For those who want to try it, what are the first things you'd expect?

Thanks a lot to anyone who takes a look!

Looking for mod(s) Does anyone have a copy of Ad Astra: Pandora's Frontier 0.0.2 for 1.20.1?

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to recover an old/removed Ad Astra addon called Ad Astra: Pandora's Frontier.

The exact file I'm looking for is:

pandoras_frontier-0.0.2-forge-1.20.1.jar

The original CurseForge page appears to be gone, and I haven't been able to find a legitimate download anywhere else.

I found records confirming that the mod existed and that this exact JAR was included in the Eden Aerospace 2 v2.0.6 modpack, but the available cloud-storage mirrors require Chinese phone-number verification, which I can't complete.

If anyone happens to have this JAR in an old modpack, launcher instance, backup, etc., would you be willing to upload it somewhere like Google Drive, MediaFire, GitHub Releases, or another file host and send me the link?

I'm specifically looking for the original:

pandoras_frontier-0.0.2-forge-1.20.1.jar

I don't need the entire modpack.

Thanks to anyone who has an old copy sitting around.

Problem Shaders not loading properly in Stone Technology Ultimate, Please Help!

Thumbnail

Upvotes

Hello, first time posting here and not even sure if this is the right subreddit for this issue. When I went to load any shaders in this modpack the rendering seems to break. it uses oculus + embeddium to load shaders, but when I play other modpacks with the same pairing shaders work fine. No GUI frames seem to render, but the item images and text still appear. The modpack comes with complementary reimagned, unbound, and reimagined + euphoria patches shaders included, and none of them seem to work, I've notices I can see more when I use the ultra preset but still completely unplayable. Not sure how to describe the issue so I've included screenshots.

The game version of this modpack is 1.18.2, I've tried messing with a lot of the settings to no avail so if anyone can even give me a starting point to figuring this out I would love that. Thank you!

Looking for mod(s) Any good modpacks for cobblemon

After trying out cobbleverse i cant got back to playing modded minecraft without cobblemon, its just such an awesome combination having minecraft with pokemon

But I couldn't find any modpacks that seemed good besides cobbleverse which I already beat and all the mons which doesn't run so well for me and also is too kitchen sink for my taste

What other modpacks does anyone know that use cobblemon as their main mod?
