ATLAUNCHER HOMESTEAD MOD
It remains compatible with much of the existing mod ecosystem, and dropping in new mods should work without requiring configuration. Homestead was designed to work as a base for new survival-focused packs. There are very few "magic blocks" instead you are provided the tools to assemble and automate your own creations. This is a difficult pack, and experience with modded Minecraft is suggested. A custom nutrition system was also written to encourage dietary variety in a realistic setting. Homestead offers unique mod interactions so the pack feels more cohesive, and less like a "kitchen sink". Different tiers of metals are scattered through the world, and may require unique methods to obtain.Īn optional quest book is provided to explain gameplay changes, and to nudge the player in the right direction if they're stuck. Highly inspired by TerraFirmCraft, it offers a revamped tech tree and new game mechanics.įocusing initially on wilderness survival, you will progress to mechanical energy for early automation and ultimately learn to harness electrical energy. Homestead’s source files can be found on Github, and the pack itself can be downloaded through the ATLauncher.Homestead is a quest-based hardcore survival pack. After many months of development, I’m thrilled that the response has been positive. With little promotion the pack has received over 6,500 downloads, 430 server installs, and has been played cumulatively for over three years. I released Homestead just under two months ago, and the response has been very positive.
In the rare case of mods being abandoned, I was able to supplement my own fix or create special forks to solve many bugs instead. In addition to these mods, I wrote several thousand lines of custom scripts to change recipes and other gameplay interactions, and submitted dozens of bug reports. An example of this is burning sticks on a campfire to create torches. The first was Nutrition, and the second was a companion mod which offered tighter integration between normally incompatible mods. To address this I created two mods specifically for this pack. Not all features I wanted to implement were available in other mods. In total, the pack is built using 125 different mods, all configured specifically with this goal in mind. Homestead is my attempt at building a similar experience, while remaining compatible with other mods and using a newer version of the game engine. This makes it difficult to include in other packs or expand upon. Unfortunately, the mod has not been updated to the latest version of the game, and remains largely incompatible with the majority of other mods. TerraFirmaCraft is a wonderful mod that offers many interesting and unique features. The design for Homestead was largely based on an existing mod, TerraFirmaCraft. The pack is designed around a wilderness survival theme, and has the player picking up sticks and stones, filtering water streams for iron nuggets, and generally trying their best to survive the harshness of the world. I’ve been working on a modpack titled Homestead for a little over eight months. Modpacks can change the game in even more significant ways, and well designed packs can offer the game a completely different feeling than unmodded play. Mods will often be included in larger compilations called modpacks. I first released Watering Cans late last year, and Nutrition more recently. I’ve been playing with mods for many years, and developing them for about a year. Despite the game never being designed for it, a vibrant modding ecosystem has emerged upon which thousands of mods have been developed. One of the things I love about Minecraft is how open its modding community is.
