Details Update Mod
This dev-log is about the development of version 1.4 and version 1.5 of the Mod.
Based on the solid structure of version 1.3, v1.4 adds more than 400 blocks (most of them are derivatives), new creative mode inventory sections, and the compatibility with Minecraft version 26.1.2.
This version includes every missing rock block from the vanilla game, in addition it adds Pale Mossy Blocks, more Wooden derivatives such as Barrels and even Hollow logs.
Starting with this new development cycle, I'll also try to advertise the project around the web, not an easy task, but a great opportunity indeed!
This version has three features made by other creators of the Minecraft Community!
There are:
In version 1.4 I removed the Overgrown Forest. The reason behind this choice is simple: it didn't meet up with expectations. It was a too large and common biome, and overall it was not that unique.
The removal of that feature allowed me to use ideas and resources into the overhaul of existing vanilla biomes.
So, in v1.4 I overhauled the following biomes by using new and existing mod's features:
Dark Forest: better terrain details, Blueshrooms and Glowshrooms, a more alive look.
Birch Forest and variants: better grass details and three new types of Birch Leaves.
Plains and Savannas: better grass details and different kind of boulders. (will be completed by the release)
Meadows: better grass details and small boulders.
Snowy Plains: as in v1.3 I added Frozen Bushes, I improved the biome with the Snow Drop Flower. In addition to this, I'm currently planning on adding a new dungeon and, the first ever mob of the Mod!
I don't currently have a release window for this version, however I can already say which kind of update will it be.
First of all, expect a small update, well, smaller than 1.4, but still a consistent pack of new features!
The entire update will be revolving around nature and biomes, here's the main objectives:
Improve every vanilla biome with the addition of new plants and terrain modifications
Add new underwater plants and details
Improve the overall mod's quality and textures.
Add compatibility with newer versions of Minecraft
Add missing derivatives from the new updates.
This is a small patch I already planned to release after v1.4. It will be a special update that I aim to release on Halloween 2026!
Without making spoilers, all I can say is that:
I'll improve, once again, the Spooky Weeping Willow.
I'll tweak, for the very first time, the Spooky W.W. textures.
There will be two Spooky additions related to the Soul Sand Valleys!
