+Wastes dimension

The frame is made of Bone Spines, while the igniter is the Bone of Destruction which can be obtained by killing the Smoldering Knight.

Spawns in the temple to keep intruders away

1.5 - Better Dimensions Update - 05/22/2019

+Murkwoods

A biome in the Wastes Dimension

+Murkwood Log, Leaves and Planks

The trees in the Murkwoods are made of Murkwood (obviously)

+Walking Geyser

It spawns in the geyser lands (in the Wastes dimension). It is a walking geyser. Not much to explain here, just beware of it.

+Zombie of the Wastes

Another zombie variant that spawns in some biomes in the Wastes dimension. It actually has a custom model, it looks a bit more... zombie-like.

+Green Hunter

A monster that spawns in the Murkwoods. Shoots arrows using a bow.

+Green Hunter's Hut

Can be found in the Murkwoods. Just guess who's there...

+Wonderrock

Can be found in some biomes of the Wonderland. Currently useless.

+Granite, Diorite and Andesite pillars

They're decorative blocks.

+Silver Apple

Provides no food points, but completely heals and clears all the status effects.

+Horizontal Glass Pane

It's a weird decorative block. The original idea was to add a block that can be used as a roof for things made with glass panes, then it ended up being a bit weird... You can still use it as a carpet if you want. An uncomfortable glass carpet.

~Now Wither Skeletons and the Wither also drop Wither Bones

~Now the Magical Mirror can also be used to turn all logs added by Hodge-Podge into Oak logs

---

1.6 - Dark Brewing Update - 07/05/2019

It uses some Lava in a Bottle, some Fulmenblaze Powder (I don't really remember its name now...) and an ingredient.

+Obsidian Bottle

Made with obsidian. Obviously.

+Lava in a Bottle

No, you can't fill the obsidian bottles in the world, you have to craft them with a bucket of lava. :( (Don't worry, you will get the bucket back)

+Potion of Lava Traversing

It's like frostwalker but it's a potion, is for lava and... well, sometimes it's a bit buggy so be careful.

Brew a Wither Bone in a Dark Brewing Stand and you will get it.

+Fully implemented the Werewolf

It's a friendly villager during the day and a deadly wolf during the night. The villager drops no experience.

+Tumtum, Tulgey and Murkwood Bookshelves

Like vanilla ones, their power can be drawn by an enchanting table.

I haven't added vanilla variants for bookshelves because there already are many mods for this.

+WIP Block of Voltslime

~Done a few tweaks

!Fixed custom block rendering when in hand, inventory, dropped, etc.

!Fixed some bugs

+Collector's Tower

A tower in the DarkWorld where the Collector can be found

+Collector

A Dark Elf who prefers to collect ancient rarities rather than to fight. Give him precious (and useless) treasures and he will give you some rewards.

You can't give him the same item more than once. The reward is not based on the item you give him but on how many items you gave him before. This information is stored per player and not per Collector, this means that if you have a duplicate treasure you can't give it to a Collector (but another player in the same world can, if he hasn't already).

He will also sometimes give you hints on where to find a rarity.

Found in the DarkWorld

+Golden Sapling

It grows into a Golden Tree after about one day/night cycle. Given by the Collector as one of its rewards.

1.9 - Tainted Update - 06/14/2020

This update introduces the third dimension of the mod (the Taint), some new structures, a new powerful armor, many new mobs, a few features directly from Hodge-Podge II and more.

This is also the last 1.12.2 update, so make sure to report any bugs so I can release a patch before porting to 1.14/1.15.

+Ghoul Dungeon

A structure found directly underneath the Cursed Tree. A portal of Ravenbricks can be found here. (The structure won't retro-generate in old chunks, you'll have to explore new ones and find another Cursed Tree if you're in a old world)

+Ghoul

Found in the Ghoul Dungeon, is very slow until it finds a target, then accelerates

+Eerie Bricks

+Ravenbricks

Lit their portal with a Tainted Scepter to go to the Taint

+Taint Dimension

Used to be a beautiful realm, is now corrupted by a noxious toxin. Consists of 3 main biomes: the Tainted Wasteland, the Skeletric Woods and the Dusk Desert

+Tainted Skeleton

A mob found in the Taint, probably used to be one of the explorers who came to the dimension

+Tainted Jabberwock

A Jabberwock that was corrupted and weakened by the Taint's toxin, can be commonly found in the Taint

+Tainted Stone

+Tainted Crystal Chunk

+Tyrianite

Crafted by surrounding a Diamond (or a Cursed Diamond) with 8 Tainted Crystal Chunks

+Tyrianite Armor

More powerful than a Diamond Armor, but not as much as an Armor of the Light (from RaolCraft). Since it's kind of toxic, wearing it might poison you a little (power comes at a cost :/).

+Aurora Helmet

Lets you produce light from the head like a Kobold

+Kobold of the DarkWorld

A Kobold found in the DarkWorld, you might notice it by the light it emits from the candle

Finally!! I forgot to add them in the last update XD

Unfortunately, due to a bug the slabs can't be crafted in survival (I don't know why, the stairs work fine), but at least this update fixed an important bug :/

! Taint biomes generated in the Overworld

! Dusk Sand didn't have gravity

Beta

30 new blocks in total :P

+Loot Vase

Break it to get some random loot! Found in structures

+Questgiver's Island

A floating island in the skies of the Tulgey Forest where the Questgiver lives

+Questgiver

A Wonderland Elf who tasks you with quests to complete for getting a reward. Quests you can complete right now are defeating a Jabberwock and curing a Werewolf.

+Jabberwock Egg

Can be found in nests in the Tulgey Forest. Break it to summon... nothing. What would you expect from breaking an egg?

+Jabberwock

My jaws that bite, my claws that catch! (I know it's a reference of a reference but if you got it you have my respect.)

Breaking the eggs might enrage the mother. Just wait a bit until it finds you!

It is immune from damage until you hit it with a Vorpal Sword! Then you will be able to damage it with any kind of attack for a few seconds (you can obviously attack it with a Vorpal Sword again to be able to damage it more)

Unlike other bosses, it can't summon any allies (actually, this is more like a mini-boss, even if it has more hp than the Smoldering and the Tainted Knights)

+Sunrise Dagger

If you are holding a Moonfall Dagger in the off hand it strikes a lightning and slows down enemies. Obtained by the Questgiver as a reward for defeating the Jabberwock.

+Moon Talisman

A rarity obtained from the Questgiver by completing the Werewolf quest. Can be given to the Collector for a reward

+Murkwood Oasis biome in the DarkWorld

A biome made of grass and Blood Lilies where some Murkwood Trees can rarely be found

+Voltgrass

The grass of the Murkwood Oasis

+Voltgrass Path

+DarkWorld Well

A decorative structure found in the Murkwood Oasis

+Stygianstone

A very dark rock which constitutes the aforementioned biome

~Custom spawn eggs are now all moved to their own bar (which has a search bar)

~Updated textures to match Jappa's style

~Added tags to custom logs and leaves (they might support decay now)

~Now any log tagged as "logs" can be converted into oak logs using a Magical Mirror

~It can also turn Dead Grass into Coarse Dirt (and vice versa), Dirt into Podzol (and vice versa), Grass into Mycelium (and vice versa)

I mean, while playing modded you usually don't have time for exploring every single biome in the world (especially with biome mods)

~Werewolves are now faster during full moon nights

~Werewolves can now be cured during full nights moon by feeding them a Silver Apple while they are affected by Weakness effect

~Eating an Oun Eye will now grant night vision for 3 seconds, just enough to check the surroundings

~Tyrianite Armor will now apply Hunger rather than Poison

~Renamed the Trader Dark Elf into DarkWorld Jeweler

~Improved rendering of some blocks and items

~Temporarily changed the Golden Pillar to be a vanilla pillar-like block with log rotation, since there is no connected textures mod for 1.14.4 (this change will be reverted when the mod will be updated to 1.15.2)

~Geysers do now temporarily produce steam blocks rather than fluids since gas fluids don't work properly in 1.14.4

~Many more tweaks

-Barrels (they now are in vanilla)

! Smoky Quartz did not generate in the DarkWorld making the Wonderland inaccesible

! Weapons dealt too little damage

! The Healing Statue had weird rotation

! You couldn't craft slabs

! Fixed a few more bugs

---

2.0.1 - Ammit Update - 09/30/2020

+Ammit

New neutral mob found in the Murkwoods (only in the Wastes though, not in the Murkwood Oasis in the DarkWorld). Attacked by Green Hunters, drops leather and its flesh.

+Phantom Ammit

The Ammit cursed counterpart which spawns while the Tainted Knight is alive. Unlike the normal counterpart, is not attacked by anyone. Similarly to Grim Haunters, it has 1 HP and is immune to almost anything, but its weakness are arrows, and not direct attacks. This means you'll need both a sword and a bow to fight the Tainted Knight!

+Ammit Flesh

Dropped by regular Ammits and found in Murkwoods loot chests. Restores moderate hunger and saturation, but requires double the time of normal food to be eaten.

~Improved Oun, Elgeth and Grahl AI (they were way too dumb)

~Cursed Diamonds will now disappear in 600 ticks rather than 300

~Improved Tainted Knight battle (changed which minions he summons and how)

~Increased attack of Knightcards

~Increased Jabberwock's nest generation frequency

~Renamed Fulmenblaze Rod to Spark Rod

~A few more tweaks

! Both kinds of Jabberwocks acted aggressively against Dark Elves rather than players

! The Jabberwock's Egg dropped itself

---

2.0.2 - Buzzy Bees Update - 10/01/2020

~Updated the mod to 1.15.2

+Potion of Spectral Sight

Created in a Dark Brewing Stand using Occult Pearl, makes you able to go through walls for a few seconds, then returns you to the place where you drank the potion. Useful for checking for nearby structures (especially underground).

~Increased the hitbox of Ammits and Phantom Ammits

~Now the Golden Pillar uses the old connected textures, since ctm is available for 1.15.2

~Now Hodge-Podge potions give Obsidian Bottles after drunk rather than regular ones. Also, they are no longer consumed in creative

~A few other tweaks

! Walking Geysers erupted the pre-1.14 geyser fluid which is buggy
