3.2 Changelog - nonamecrackers2/crackers-wither-storm-mod GitHub Wiki

Added/Tweaked:

  • New tainted blocks
    • Stairs, slabs, fences, logs, and so much more!
    • Mob statues are now their own block
    • Huge thanks to Nazaru!
  • Wither Storm head revamps
    • Heads now have "hit counts." Hitting a head will increase this count until it becomes injured
      • The required hits can range between 3-5 and is rerolled every time a head is healed
    • Heads will now turn red when hit, like any typical mob
    • Heads will shake when hit, and when healed a sound will play to indicate the tractor beam reactivating
  • Amulet
    • The amulet has been completely revamped and given a new use
    • The amulet will track the nearest Wither Storm, and will pulse blue when held if your facing the general direction of the Storm
    • The amulet can also track up to four extra mobs (and players!), which can be set by right clicking a mob. These colors will also pulse when facing the general direction of the tracked mob. Shift-right click the amulet while held to swap colors. Each color can track one mob
    • A variation of the amulet can be crafted that will track all entities of the bounded type
    • The amulet can be locked as well to prevent players from changing bounded entities
    • Added a config option to disable the Wither Storm force tracking the nearest player with an amulet
  • Withered Beacon
    • Crafted using a withered nether star, the withered beacon is a much more powerful variant of the normal beacon being able to apply various effects in a much larger radius
    • Support beacons can be connected nearby that can apply more effects in an infinite distance in the angle their connection makes with the main beacon
    • The withered beacon can be used to resummon the Wither Storm by right clicking it with three wither skulls
    • The beacons beams can be seen from any distance
    • More info in the beacons GUI when placed!
  • Sickened Villager
    • A withered sickened variant of the villager, texture by McFella
    • Villagers and zombie villagers will convert to this sickened variant and can be healed via golden apple stew, retaining all their trades, gossips, and trading experience
  • Performance Improvements
    • Introducing vertex buffers, which store vertices and uploads them right to the GPU instead of going through all them each frame, improving performance astronomically
      • This system is used for the Wither Storm's mass and block clusters
    • Removed the "Block Cluster Coloring" config, as these new improvements fixed shader incompatibilities with block clusters
  • Patreon cosmetics
    • Added in-game cosmetics for Wither Storm backers on my Patreon
    • Backers will receive a cute little formidibomb block that will float around their head
  • Bowels Reworks
    • The bowels have been completely overhauled, featuring more structures, caves, loot, tunnels, and so much more!
    • When entering the bowels, you'll also now be transported somewhere random, with a bias towards the dark-lit cave systems. Configurable, of course

    • Configurable via "Smart Bossbar" in the server config
