[1.2.5] The Lion King Mod v1.4.2

Thanks to Jamie1051 for the trailer!

The Lion King Mod is a mod which aims to bring together the worlds of Minecraft and Walt Disney's famous film, The Lion King, by adding various Lion King-themed things - content from the movie, and other features which enhance this experience.

When you install the mod, you will find that Lion King ticket booths have started appearing in new worlds you create, and unexplored areas of old worlds. The Ticket Lions inside these booths will sell you a Lion King Ticket in exchange for a gold ingot, which you can then use to activate the portal inside the theatre.

This portal will take you to the Pride Lands, an entirely new realm with many new animals - all of which can be bred - new trees, flowers, materials, ores, and different biomes just like the normal Minecraft world. At the centre of the world Rafiki lives in an enormous tree and he can entrust you with a quest, which will reward you with such things as Rafiki's own stick, access to the dark, dangerous Outlands dimension, and ultimately a Star Altar which can be used to summon your own companion Simbas, who will fight for you and carry your items.

Requires ModLoader, AudioMod, and Minecraft Forge for Minecraft 1.2.5. Install those mods before you install this one.

First, you will need to obtain a Gold Ingot. Take the gold and go wandering until you come across a Lion King Ticket Booth - they're most common in swamp, plains, and desert biomes, because of the flat terrain, but they can rarely be found elsewhere.

Give your gold to the Ticket Lion to receive a ticket, then go through into the back room and activate the portal with it. You may want to take some supplies, but the Pride Lands are fully habitable, that is, all materials needed to live and thrive in the Pride Lands can be obtained in the Pride Lands.

Stepping into an activated Lion Portal sets your spawn to the portal. If you die in the Pride Lands, you will respawn in the Pride Lands, and beds work normally in the Pride Lands.

Should you lose your portal, you can use a compass to find it again. The compass will point towards whichever portal has been most recently used.

Once you're in the Pride Lands, if you want to find Rafiki and start his quest, make your way to the centre of the world at x and z co-ordinates 0. Interact with Rafiki and he will give you tasks to complete. The first task is to collect 64 hyena bones.

When you give Rafiki a full stack of hyena bones, he will give you a Rafiki Stick. In addition to being a (relatively weak) weapon, the Rafiki Stick can be used to grow Pride Lands saplings, harvest the leaves of their trees like shears, grow Pride Lands flowers on grass, and fertilize wheat. More Rafiki Sticks can be purchased with additional stacks of hyena bones.

The next stage, and the last one I will detail here, is to find Scar and kill him. Scar will be in a cave up to layer 30, from X co-ordinates -80 to 80, and Z co-ordinates -80 to 80. Scar only takes damage when you hit him with the Rafiki Stick. The Rafiki Stick also does not take damage from hitting Scar.

Scar is quite difficult to kill, so "Be Prepared!" After killing him, there are a few more things to do before the quest is complete and you receive your final reward. When Rafiki asks for 'ground' items, you will need to use a Grinding Bowl - see the crafting recipes below to find out how to make one.

At any stage in the quest, you can give Rafiki three silver ingots and he will swap them for a special coin which teleports you back to him.

If you're not yet ready for Rafiki's quest, or you just want some useful items, head to Timon and Pumbaa, who can be found somewhere fairly close to (but not right next to) Rafiki's tree. Timon and Pumbaa are extremely hungry, and who could do a better job of finding them some food than yourself?

Timon and Pumbaa like to eat bugs which live under logs. Fallen logs can be found throughout the Pride lands, although they are far more common in forests, and when one is broken, a bug may crawl out from under it. Bring Timon 5 of these bugs to purchase an item from him.

There are currently 3 items which Timon can give, all of which are unavailable anywhere else:

- The Tunnah Diggah, an extremely fast pickaxe which is very good for digging tunnels, although it doesn't last very long;

- The Pumbaa Flatulence, a throwable item which inflicts huge damage to any creature in a large radius, enough to kill most animals and severely damage monsters;

- And the Hakuna Matata Crystal, which automatically restores full health once it drops to 2 hearts or lower. (But only if you are still alive - the crystal isn't just an extra life.)

Pridestone, Silver, and Peacock tools, and Gemsbok, Silver, and Peacock armour, are crafted in the same arrangements as normal tools and armour, so they are not shown here. There are also a few secret recipes.

(When crafting the bed, you can use any type of planks or rugs.)

Grinding Bowl recipes:

You can also grind leaves, flowers, and feathers from the Pride Lands into some of the available rug dyes if you wish to dye a Fur Rug. Before it is dyed, the rug must be crafted with Rug Whitener, which is obtained by putting a white flower in the Grinding Bowl.

Thanks to braun1700 for this amusing video which shows some of the things in the mod.

Thanks to Mr1Pyrotechnician (this is one of the best playthroughs I've seen! There are two other parts to this series)
