Ever thought the world of Minecraft is a little static? I mean, the potential for extraordinary things to happen is there, but nothing ever happens before an enderman or the player picks up a block.

This mod uses Forge 9.11.1.942 and supports Minecraft 1.6.4. This mod is a work in progress mod, which means bugs, glitches and instability can be a case as new versions come by!

This is Nature Reborn. The successor of my previous mod Natural Disasters Mod which was discontinued while still only supporting Minecraft 1.4.2. As you might have guessed by reading the introduction; this mod adds elements to make your Minecraft world more dynamic. Especially in the form of Natural Disasters, but it also gives trees, tall grass and flowers the ability to grow, water to erode and lava to smelt the ground. All these elements will over time change the Minecraft world you survive in.

There are currently 4 disasters in the mod: Volcanoes, Meteorites, Sinkholes and Earthquakes. More are to come!

Downloads:
Latest version: Nature Reborn 0.0.4
Previous version: Nature Reborn 0.0.3_1


I have also included some pictures:

Past the stages of growing, the volcano charges up and eventually releases things from rock, to diamond blocks(now those are very rare, so don't go around expecting them to appear!), this goes on for quite a while, and eventually it goes to sleep and CAN die permanently. If it doesn't die, it takes quite some time and then it wakes up again and spits out blocks once again and the cycle repeats.

Sorry about the inconvenience. I was really in a hurry I guess for releasing the mod. I'll have it fixed ASAP!

Update: Now it should be fixed.

The new mod is here!

THIS MOD IS DISCONTINUED, I WILL NOT BE HELPING WITH ANY ERRORS THAT YOU MAY REPORT. IF YOU WANT TO HELP ME CREATE THE NEXT VERSION YOU CAN CHECK MY TWITTER @Jokiboyy
You can expect me to create a new similar mod, just be patient and wait. While staying patient though, you can check in on my twitter @Jokiboyy to give me feedback on the new things I add. I have plans making this next version much more detailed, and feedback is crucial for me!

Howdy folks, this is an extension of the previous Volcano Mod I made. I've just been developing over the Volcano and added more Natural Disasters. You may find Earthquakes, Volcanoes, Meteorites, Sinkholes, Tornadoes, a new mob, and many other things that will turn your static Minecraft world into a dynamic hell.
If you have any problems with the mod: read through the OP and see if you can solve it, if not you should post it on this topic or send me a PM.

Here's a video put together by Co Weetie, and it includes Weather & Tornadoes mod by Corosus and this mod

Also, you may find news on my twitter, make sure to follow me to find out when new versions are out!

Pictures:

Creating the spawner item, right click a block to create a disaster, right click in the middle of nowhere to change between the disasters!


THIS DOES NOT CURRENTLY WORK(1.6)
Creating the Gravity Bender, this item will pick up blocks your right click, throw animals/mobs flying when hitting them and dispose the blocks you picked up when right click on mobs/animals or nothing. Experiement, it's fun!



Volcanoes:
TYPE A:
Type A is not available in Superflat worlds!
Ground perspective:

And here you can see the entire volcano. See that red dot? Thats where the picture over was taken, the volcanoes can get enormous!



TYPE B:
Type B volcanoes are available in Superflat and normal worlds.


Earthquakes:
The Earthquakes looks a lot like a ravine...

Meteorites:
Meteorites are big balls that falls from the sky, slowly falling apart in mid-air.

Any bug reports, spotlights or suggestions should be posted on this topic!

Just putting the news out here for those who don't watch my twitter: I'm soon going to release a snapshot of the Volcano, the first disaster to visit Minecraftia and wreck worlds again since 1.4.2 If you want the news as I am developing, you really should check out my Twitter in the OP

I plan on making some new types of meteorites, and improving them drastically too(these news are fresh, live from The Minecraftforum!) and I hope to, in some way, improve on the way the earthquake works when I'm creating those too. I also plan to add the sinkholes too, I think most people REALLY liked them, maybe I'mm add some new features for it, it seems like the best way to add some dungeons or things like that And maybe the Terrainmonster will come back too, they've been dead for far too long even though most people didn't know how to kill them.

But, once again you should check out my Twitter feed, so I can get some feedback from you guys when I'm asking questions or maybe you guys have some questions you want answered?

The reason why this mod take forever, is because I'm trying too hard to make it realistic. I don't really know if it's my way to do it. I want to make a real earthquake, but some shaking, falling blocks and a cracked ground is really hard to code, and especially when you don't play Minecraft anymore(sry). I don't really have that same motivation as before, but I feel like it's a thing I need to do. I've finished the Volcano ages ago, and it looks quite good, but I've not really finished many other disasters, and sometimes I wonder how I'm going to approach to create a more realistic disaster. Take the sinkhole as an example: In the older versions, it's a simple and gigantic hole created by removing the block on top and continue doing this until you reach a specific time period. In reality it's water eroding the ground under an area and after a while the pressure from the ceiling of the eroded room is too much for the ceiling to handle and the ceiling simply falls into the room. Imagine this in Minecraft and that every second the entire visible world is being scanned for such pressures and after that the sinking needs to be executes in a WAY more complicate way than in the older versions. Making the volcano was easy, because I had a very clear sense of how to approach it, and I have much more experience making volcanoes than other disasters.

And I have to apologize for being lazy too. I really want to make this mod, but it's just stomping me into the ground whenever I open eclipse.

So my question is: Should I continue trying to make a realism mod, or go back to more destructive and not exactly real things?

Quote from JoseCraftMCA

And when you can do the new mod? I love nature and natural disasters!
PD: This is a very very great mod!

I hope to be able to do it once the modding API comes out.

Quote from Pitchfork

guys you realize to make a mod into a new version of minecraft isn't exactly easy. and considering how GINORMOUS this mod is it could take time . Don't rush the mod creators when they get it done it'll be done. Also as far as I'm aware, Minecraft will be in 1.5 soon correct? So what would be the point of making it compatible with 1.4.7 when you might as well wait for 1.5.

This is correct, and with all the new features that have arrived lately, especially the virtual server in ssp, has made it very hard to find ways to mod in specific things. I'm actually looking forward to 1.5, as far as I'm aware they'll add some mod support in that version?

I have no plans continuing this mod, but I do have a plan making a new mod. It'll be more focused on natural phenomenons, not just disasters. Disasters will be included though!

wow this is so long then i thought it would be

Yes, I haven't been working

I can release a pre-release version

Quote from AlexDini

Looks awesome. Definetely trying it...
Also, my rep point made this mod "popular"

Awesome

-- We have made it into Minecraft 1.7! --

My main goal with this post was to make the community interested in more biomes so that Mojang would prioritise that aspect in their busy schedules. And it seems we have finally made it happen! Additionally we also got 2 of my suggestions into the game, which of course is fantastic.

---------------------------------

Blossom Grove

Now put down your guard and enjoy the moonlight in this mob free but oh so rare environment. Unfortunately, the underground isn't as peaceful. If you are lucky you will also encounter a deserted old vineyard for some delicious grapes. This rare fruit replenish only 0,5 hunger each, but they are all eaten at the same time, making it the quickest but most expensive food source.

Rumours say the farmers have noticed crops grow faster.



Old version:

Oasis
Take your horse and embark on a journey to discover the Orient. These warm and barren deserts might contain a scarce amount of watering wholes, a common place to find various merchants with donkeys full of goods to trade. Make sure to have your wallet full, for these rare goods cannot be acquired elsewhere.




Fungi Biome
The luminescent mushrooms proves to be a perfect, yet mystique light source in the deep caves of the underworld. Rumours speak about small glowing angler-fishes that thrive in nearby underground lakes.

Thanks to Hansentale for the inspiration.




Tropical Islands
Palm trees grow on the beaches of these plant rich atoll islands located on the great oceans. Breaking palm leaves spawn coco nuts, which are an essential food source out here.




Savannah - IMPLEMENTED IN 1.7
In the never ending terrain of the African wilderness, animals thrive in the shadows of the acacia trees. Clay is commonly found in nearby watering holes.




Wild West desert - IMPLEMENTED IN 1.7
This arid landscape consists of a new reddish stone, and a new matching sandblock*. Lone wanderers need to watch out for the vultures, for they will attack any trespasser carrying raw meet.


*)The sandblock is not present in this screenshot since it's very time consuming covering the grounds.


Autumn forest biome
A colourful forest arises as you continue your exploration. No one in these woods will ever starve, as the ripest apples fall from the trees and the ground is covered by mushrooms galore!




Frost biome
A cold breeze caught the landscape by surprise, which immediately froze the tiniest straw of grass. Make sure you wear some armour, or you will soon be history.




Darklands

The sky darkens as you enter this gloomy realm. A great challenge awaits the one who seek to face the death. Now grab your diamond equipment, you will need it.

ModLoader 1.6.2
A mod, kind of like a mod manager, that stops conflicts with mods that alter rendering, recipes, add entities, gui, smeltables or fuel. If you're a modder, feel free to decompile this and learn how to make mods work with it. Inherit BaseMod and override any methods as necessary. The mod's main class file should be prefixed with 'mod_'. Read the Javadoc for information on methods available.

Elemental Arrows 1.6.2
The Elemental Arrows mod adds four new types of arrows; explosive arrows, fire arrows, ice arrows, and a joke weapon, egg arrows.. They are crafted the same way as normal arrows, but the head is replaced based on the element; gunpowder for explosive, coal for fire, snowball for ice, and egg for, well, egg. Crafting an explosive arrow only gives you one arrow, and it explodes upon impact. Crafting a fire arrow gives you one arrow, that will ignite stuff upon impact. Crafting an ice arrow gives you one arrow, that will freeze water into ice, lava springs into obsidian, put out fire, and break torches. Egg arrows spawn chickens upon impact with the ground, but there's a secret too. Lightning arrows strike lightning where ever they hit, use diamond in recipe. Homing bow recipe is same layout as regular bow, but diamond instead of sticks. Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

More Stackables 1.6.2
This mod makes saddles, doors, and signs up to 8 in a stack, minecarts and boats up to 4 in a stack. This is great for storage and for using workbenches, chests, or furnaces, as you no longer consume your food! Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

Sign Tags 1.6.2
Type [time] into a sign, and it will show the current time. You can also type [x], [y], or [z] and find the current position of the sign in regards to that axis. [a|b] is a redstone input function for signs, where text replacing 'a' will be shown when the sign is powered, otherwise 'b' is shown. Type [light], and it will show you the current light level of the sign's position. [biome], [temp], [humid] each tell you the biome you're in, the temperature of that area, and the humidity of that area, respectively. [temp], [humid] will no longer function in Nether.

Death Chest 1.6.2
When you die, if you have a chest in your inventory, it will be placed where you die, or in the closest available spot. The chest will be filled with as many items as possible. Items stored in the crafting slot are still lost, as usual, and any excess that won't fit in the chest will be dropped.

AudioMod 1.6.2(Not updated for now)
AudioMod is an upgrade of sorts, and a modder's utility. Included in this mod is CodecIBXM, created by Paul at www.paulscode.com, who is the creator of the sound system used in Minecraft. It allows Minecraft to play (in addition to ogg, wav, and mus files), xm, s3m, and mod files. The only readily available feature of this mod is the ability to add new music, however, it adds support for modders to add new records and sound effects. There is a slight increase in load time when using this mod. Using this, you can also use custom sounds, alongside the originals. Custom music and sound goes into the resources folder, music in mod/music. Custom sounds go into mod/sound. For example, if I were to add a new footstep sound effect to stone, I'd put the new stone1.ogg in mod/sound/step. In game, the new sound would occasionally be played, alongside the originals. Custom sounds for things like the menu click and water do not always work, at the moment.

Floodgate 1.6.2
Floodgate block can be used as either a floodgate, allowing toggleable water and lava falls, or as a trapdoor. When you place the floodgate control block, it will place a gate in front of the control block in the direction you are facing. Applying redstone power to this will remove the gate. Use the control block to open the GUI where you can place supporting blocks that will replace how the gate looks. Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

Spawner GUI 1.6.2
Adds a GUI to all mob spawners, that will allow you to pick what mob to spawn. I also reallowed mining spawners. You can disable spawners with redstone aswell. Should be compatible with all mobs, but don't expect the mobs with special spawn conditions to work everywhere. Animals require grass, Monsters require darkness, Slimes require being in their special chunks, and 0-16 depth. Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

Block Distortion 1.6.2
This mod is just an experiment. Everything that is 3D (Mostly noticeable on blocks) has a random distortion. Known issues include: Clouds randomize as they move across the sky, held items look rather odd, and GUI elements may be screwed up. I don't recommend using this mod long.

Biosphere 1.6.2
This is a new generator. You may select this generator in More World Options when creating world. In this generator, the world is made up of massive spheres with glass domes. Inside these spheres are random biomes. There is a random chance of a lake being placed in the center of each sphere. Usually water, but rarely lava. Bordering this lake you will find sand for water, or gravel for lava. Connecting each sphere is a wooden bridge with fence rail. Beside each sphere is a smaller sphere, which is where you will find diamond and lapis lazuli. These ores only occur here, the others are equally spread throughout the spheres. The cave generator used here is a modified Nether cave generator, where like on the surface, will generate lava below a certain level. if this lava reaches the outside, an obsidian wall will be made to hold it in. Many options can be changed in ".minecraft/config/Biosphere.cfg". Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

More mods to come!

Are you an Alphabro who always posts on how you miss the good old days of Alpha, and how the game was fun? Or are you a more recent player who just wanted to see what the game looked like before you even knew of Minecraft? Well, you are not alone. Not even close to alone. There are hundreds of thousands of players who think this way.

So ever since Alpha 1.2.0 when the terrain generation was altered (and in my opinion, screwed up), I've wanted the classic Alpha terrain with the current version's features. In December '10, I was happy to see MCNostalgia, as it allowed me to play Alpha 1.1.2_01, which had what was my favorite terrain generator. I loved it, but the loss of current features and the heavy presence of bugs kept me from staying there.

I am requesting a mod that allows for users to change the Minecraft version that it generates terrain from, and that being the only thing that changes; gameplay, items, blocks, ect will all be as of the client's version.

I am fully aware of the mods out there that do this by changing all worlds made to preHalloween Alpha, but the reason I am calling for this mod is for extreme convenience and flexibility.

I propose that the terrain type would be set upon creation of a new world, as shown here:


These are the versions you can choose from

• Alpha 1.1.2_01 (3rd gen Terrain)
• Beta 1.1_02 (4th gen Terrain w/o new trees)
• Beta 1.7.3 (4th gen Terrain w/ new trees)
• Beta 1.8.1 (5th gen Terrain w/o snow biomes)
• Minecraft 1.0 (5th gen Terrain w/ snow biomes)

Now about those other mods I talked about earlier: The best part of this mod would be the fact that you could make a 1.1.2 world, make a house and stuff on that terrain, then make a new world using 1.7.3 terrain without switching out mods/.jars. Another selling point of this mod would be that you can take your first world that was generated with an Alpha client, set the terrain type that corresponds to the version you made your world in, and play the game. Now, any new terrain that you would enter without this mod spawns 1.0.0 5th gen terrain and causes sudden, ugly chunk borders. With this mod, there would be no chunk borders: your 1.0.0 client would make the old terrain for a seamless world. No more backdating .jars to expand your old worlds with the old terrain.

Remember, a built in way to customize which seed a world generates from was added in Beta 1.3, so this mod would allow for 1st through 3rd gen terrain to be made from specific seeds; this is something that backdating your client can't do.

The new terrain just sucks. Once you have seen what a biome looks like, you've seen them all. Forests, swamps, deserts, taigas, grasslands, and tundras are flat as hell. Mountains are cool, but they are very difficult on gameplay as it takes 5 minutes to find a single tree. The underwater terrain is just this hodge-podge of dirt and sand, and looks extremely ugly. Swamps' coloring looks cool when you are in it, but the sudden boundaries of dark to light grass looks retarded.

(Those links are giving you a hint; thousands of people are reaching the same conclusions)

Now, 3rd gen terrain was based on 3D Perlin noise and created these very dynamic and visually appealing terrain. A new world felt new, and you really don't know what you are going to get, compared to now, a biome makes it extraordinarily obvious what the terrain is going to look like. 4th gen terrain lessened the extremity of the terrain, but was still random, and biomes were just an add on and did not affect the terrain as much as they do now.

Take a look at this video that has 3rd gen terrain of Alpha 1.1.2_01. 3rd gen worlds will generate cool terrain like this in almost all times you made a new world.


People who complain that new Minecraft sucks and how Alpha was epic are usually only miss the terrain generator; they played the game for a sense of fantasy and light-hearted gameplay, not this new dark and demanding game that has come of. This mod will be able to shut those people up for good, combining the new version with old terrain, and in combination with a texture pack, can make these guys love playing Minecraft again.


I backdated my client for the fun of it to play some mid Alpha, and after only 6 tries for an epic world, this is what I got. This is why I love Alpha.

If you make the mod and do a good job with the design and promotion, you could later rewrite it to allow custom imput of terrain. Then other mods will use your mod (Similar to what happened with Risugami's ModLoader) which will really push you high into the modding community.

Also refraining from making this mod because you don't actually have backups of the generation code? Well MCNostalgia will allow you to revert your game to these versions and just go from there.

There is a person out there who is walking to the Far Lands (Kurtjmac), and he is stuck with using 1.7.3 because the Far Lands were removed in 1.8. As time goes on, he will be stuck with using this old version while the Minecraft community passes him by, so by making this mod, you will allow him to generate pre1.8 terrain with the newest gameplay aspects, spicing up the videos for more enjoyment on his part, and others'. So please, someone create this mod, after all, Kurt is doing it for charity (and has already raised $11,000!).


Well this topic has about 50,000 views, which is really amazing, but still there are thousands of people who would love this mod but do not know about it. The use of the signature I made really draws people in, like you, to see this topic.

I put it as my signature for a month and regularly posted on the Survival Forum, and brought in 2,000 views. Two weeks later after I allowed others to use the sig, this topic has reached 7,000 views. After a month, we're up to 27,000. Just imagine if another hundred people used this sig for a month.

Thank you. Your mod corrupted my saves and bin.

No, it shouldn't. If that happened, then it was your fault. Don't blame other people when YOU do something wrong. I can perfectly uninstall and reinstall the mod every time i want and it won't corrupt my save. Instead of being sarcastic, try asking what happened. After all, for installing this mod, you OBVIOUSLY should have backed up your saves. It's a disasters mod, for god's sake!

EDIT: By the way, what's with your username? I thing you are only trolling him.

Million Block Walk is going N.D. as of tonight. I am afraid =)

Why are people hating on how the volcanoes form? That's how real volcanoes form! Well, except they don't shoot out perfectly square cubes, but you get the idea.

It's a simple idea.

Translucent blocks.

Light from objects such as Glowstone, Torches, etc. from behind these blocks (or below, but you get the point) would shine through these blocks, creating a bright light around the block that is the color of the block. This could be used for "Neon" signs, cool lighting effects, etc.

Let's pretend that this is the 3x3 crafting table, 'd' is the dye, and 'g' is the glass:

DDD
DGD
DDD

The block would be whatever color the dye was. All dyes can be used (Except for Ink sacs).

no information, no clicks.

no pictures, no clicks.

no proper name, no clicks.

no version information, no clicks.

no rules, no clicks.

If they add natural disasters they should only hurt/move the character and there be no possibility of affecting blocks they placed.

I think random wildfires would be nice, lava lakes don't cause enough forest fires. :/
Also on top of that, fire spreads faster now so it would be cool.
