Description

Welcome to the Rewrite of Cave & Cliff Fundamentals, now called NovaCraft.

This Mod's main goal is to expand upon the base game and make Survival/Hardcore Mode more challenging for experienced players and to expand upon the base game in a way that does not strive too far from vanilla.

Main Features of The Mod
As of V1.4 my take of the Ancient City from 1.19 has been added, they only generate 5k from spawn in the x and z directions and are not exactly common

1) Complete Overhaul to Ore Generation

- Ores generate more rarely overhaul but will generate more commonly within caves to encourage Cave Exploration

- Y levels at which Ores will generate have been altered

- Gravel will not be found below y=32 in generation anymore and dirt blobs are completely removed

- Diamond Ore is rarer in world generation

- Similar to 1.18, Coal Ore does not generate at low y levels (Only generates above y=24)

- Iron and Coal Ore try to generate within stone above y=90 again and rarely gold and emerald can be found as well

2) New Cave Decor and Structures

- Sculk Blocks and Sculk plants can be found at low y-levels in the overworld (NOTE: Sculk does not function in the same way as in vanilla, read the changelog for more information)

- 3 Different Types of Lichen, New mushrooms, cave stalagmites and stalactites
- 5 Different types of Geos can be found, some are rarer than others (Very important for progression in the Mod)

- Sculk Geos are basically dungeons but more challenging, there are a few variations of it

- Vindicator Settlements(They generate on the surface in most overworld biomes)

3) Mobs

- There are many new mobs in the mod, all but 3 are hostile as of V1.1

- Many of them can be found within the caves, others are found in the Nether, and the most challenging ones are found in the End.

- These mobs are quite powerful, so do not underestimate them

- The spawn rates of all Vanilla Overworld and Nether mobs have been increased

4) Expansion of the End Dimension

- NOTE: Many of the new End features are based to be played along side Hardcore Ender Expansion

- The End has been made a much more challenging/punishing dimension overhaul
- Depending on the mob, they can kill you in 1-4 hits in Unenchanted Diamond Armor, so you will need to actually prepare when traveling to this realm
- Blobs of Endstone and Frontierstone can be found throughout the End now
- A new "tree" type, flora, new ores and blocks have been added to the dimension
- Much of the mod is locked behind obtaining specific resources in the End, look at the achievements page for help on where something may be located

For goal driven players, the main goal is to fight the Warden (vastly different fight compared to in 1.19) to acquire the materials to create your own custom End Portal(NOTE: In 1.7.10 there are only 3 strongholds per world and sometimes the portal room is not connected to the body of the stronghold) and the final tier right now, Crystalite. You can also x9 Duplicate many types of ores, the legendary beacon and enchantment table are also some nice goals to work toward in the mod. The Deep One and The Bloviator are other bosses that you should work toward.

There will be more things to do after fighting the Warden in later build of the mod.

- Special thanks to both Roadhog360(main author of Et Futurum Requiem) and Delirus(author of Netherlious) for all their help with the code and helping me troubleshoot issues I have had during development.

This mod would not be anywhere close to what I envisioned and it would not have nearly as many features so go check out both of their mods out.

Ancient City Image 2 See Ancient City Image 1 Description

More Tools/Armor

The Phantom Unlike vanilla the Phantom only spawns in the End, AI is very similar to the ones from Netherlious.

Vindicator Settlements Settlements that house Vindicators. They are hostile normally but by wearing any variant of the Vanite Crown, they will be neutral and can be traded with
Vaild Ores for the 9x Duplication Diamond, Gold, Emerald, Iron, Vanite, Klangite, Tophinite, Ancient Debris, Rupee, Armimite, Realmite, Zanite, Continuum, Arkenium, primeval artifact, and endium. Note it may take some time for it to activate

The Retextured Squid The glow squid is in the mod, spawns natually like a squid does in rivers, deep oceans, and ocean biomes. Their ink sacs can be used to ink glow lichen and sculk blocks.
How to obtain Null Shards The block that is placed in the center must be an echo block not budding echo, surrond it in sculk tentacles on sculk endstone. in the +X +Z direction is where the orange crystal goes. All crystals below it are budding blocks. Only can be done in the End.
Deepoid Fortress Image 2 The Deepoid and Ionizatior are exclusive to the dungeon There are spawners for Magma Cubes, Deepoids, Ionizatior, and Slaughters here. All the mobs here can damage you even if you have fire resistance.
The Ender Ray A Large part of this mod is End exploration, however the End is a far more hostile place, these guys from Ender Stuff Plus have a nasty projectile attack but their projectiles are quite slow.
Blazing Serpent Dungeon Found on top of lakes in the Nether. Has Blazing Serpent Spawners. Similar loot to the Nether Dungeons with a few additional things
More Random Sculk Generation
Void Entity Since Sculk Dwellers no longer spawn in the End, I added a new mob to take it's place, Void Entites. Very dangerous mob that spawns only with in the End. However it has useful drops. The mob can easily kill you so be prepared

Larimar Geo Look at Copartz Geo description.
Structure to Summon the Warden Nulllwart is one you will need, it is found in dungeons growing on nullstone or is found within Vindicator Settlements. You will need to right click the altar with a sculk star to activate it. It is symmetric on all sides
Random Sculk Generation in a Cave Sculk works differently in this mod, it will generate naturally in caves below y=25, very important later in the mod for the various rituals.
