NovaCraft(1.7.10) V1.5.0

NovaCraft V1.5

New Blocks

Added Infused Iridium Bricks Used to get secondary output in Iridium Furnace: watch YT video for details copartz -> possible additional redstone tsavorokite -> possible additional emerald larimar -> possible additional lapis yttrlinsite -> possible additional iron aether -> possible additional diamond echo -> possible additional vanite null -> possible additional iridium
Added Vanite Anvil x3 the uses of the vanilla anvil, Unlike the vanilla anvil the "too expensive" limit is removed, Main use is to to create enchanted books and add them onto tools/equipment with max level + 2, Example Protection IV + Protection IV -> Protection V,, Protection V + Protection V -> Protection VI but you cannot make a Protection VII You cannot use it to rename items or equipment; use vanilla one for that(Do not like when mods make vanilla mechanics obsolete), While you can, you do not want to use this anvil to create lower tier books as the xp cost is 21x the vanilla anvil without any reductions, Placing any of the various clusters from the mod within a 3x3x3 volume around it will reduce the xp cost down to x7 the vanilla anvil, You can have a maximum of 24 source blocks that reduce the cost around it, (Copartz, Tsavorokite, Larimar, or Yttrinlisinte) = 1, Vanite and Aether = 2, Echo = 3, Null = 4: 24 is the max reduction

Added The Crimson Dragon Summoned by right clicking the Crimson Dragon egg on the Floating Island with a Crimson Star This boss is not as difficult as the Deep One but more difficult than the HEE Ender Dragon The boss has similar AI to the Deep One but deals less damage and the fire attack does not bypass fire resistance entirely The Dragon will also fire fireballs like the 1.9 Ender Dragon kinda does, will explode and deal a good amount of damage The Dragon summons Wyrmlings to aid it in battle Lower Armor compared to deep one Drops Crimson Scales, Crimson Dragon Bone and Anomalous Essence You will get the Egg back as well

Existing Mob Alterations

Wither Boss Changes HP is doubled from 300HP to 600HP The Wither is faster overhaul Once at half HP 3 Wither Skeletons will spawn as aid When below half HP upon damaging the Wither there is a 5% chance more Wither Skeletons can spawn Once below half HP the Wither's speed is about 80% faster Once below 63% HP, the Wither can break blocks with hardness equal or less than that of obsidian in a 4x4x4 radius around the Wither(Issues when he was powering up and being able to do this so that is why the weird %) It is the same vanilla entity so if other mods add drops to him, then it will not be a problem
Spider/Cave Spider Changes Simply move and jump faster
Creeper Changes The explosion is now tied to their HP where a max HP creeper is normal and at 1HP the creeper exploded equivalent to a charged creeper explosion This effect stacks with charged creepers
Enderman Changes Deals double damage More likely to teleport when attacked
Warden Changes Buffed Warden damage and speed Added some animations for melee and ranged attack The ranged attack animation is similar but not quite the same as in 1.19 The hitbox of the Warden is smaller now, near the heart so that is what you need to target The Warden no longer applies a blindness aura around it but still does weakness and slowness for random bursts The ranged attack will happen more often now Most damage dealt to the Warden is now negated if the player does not have blindness active(You will have to craft these before you summon the Warden) The Warden also heals massively when damaging the player if they do not have the blindness effect active When blindness is active a trail of particles will lead you to the Warden

World Gen Additions/Changes

Added Mansion Starts generating in Forest type biomes where the magnitude of both x and z are 12k or larger It is similar in layout to the one in 1.11 but with more chests and mobs Vindicators, Ravagers, and Cryologers are found throughout the structure There is a secret floor you can find without breaking blocks which will take you to a basement is which is built with NovaCraft blocks and features that is a bit more difficult than the other floors You use the vindicator insignia to find them

NovaCraft(1.7.10) V1.5-snapshot3

This is a larger snapshot but I will not tell you everything that was changed/fixed, only the notable additions/changes.

WARNING - The config has been broken up into different files and several new options have been added. Delete your old config and reload the game to the tile screen then make your changes. Make a backup of your existing saves to ensure your world is all good updating

Stronghold Additions/Changes

• I disabled the vanilla strongholds and replaced them with my own. My additions/changes to the stronghold are not anywhere like that one mod in modern versions; the original style and layout is the same but I will add a few more chests, spawners, and rooms. They instead can generate about x3-4 times further from spawn(similar to in 1.9) and there are only 3 per world but can be found at similar distances as in 1.7 depending on the seed. The original chest loot tables are still included for mods that add things to them. I did remove all the torches from the stronghold though... There also a few new rooms in the stronghold.
• Several end portal frames are now cracked in the portal room which must be repaired using end portal sealant on the end portal frames. (I do not think the recipe is difficult to craft, the farlander shards are found in chests within the stronghold but will be able to found in Mansions and other distant structures in the mod.)
• Fixed large meteor craters sometimes not carving out entirely in the -X direction.

NovaCraft(1.7.10) V1.5-snapshot2

• Fixed crash due to Sculked Stone spreading to deepslate
• Luminant log and saplings can now be used in smelting
• Moved Strongholds to generate out on average x4 further away and x2 in size.

NovaCraft(1.7.10) V1.5-snapshot

Do not feel like listing it all out but will only note the important content as it is a snapshot. I will let you discover it for yourself.

• Mansions are almost done but playable in survival, they are just missing the unique loot in them and the Boss fight at the end is not complete yet.

• Fixed the issues with chunk freezing/slow down due to sculked mineshafts and meteor craters; only reason I am actually uploading this.

• This is playable in survival but several features are not complete and/or not accessible in survival.

Happy New Years, have fun!
