Shadowlands is a mod which adds 6 new dimensions, each with biomes and dungeons, there's loads to explore! First you must summon an kill a huge flying magical construct and then you can visit the wonderous lands this mod has to offer.
It adds:
- 6 new dimensions
- 47 new mobs
- 211 new blocks
- 17 new armor sets
- 66 new plants
- 9 new bosses
- 118 new structures
- 274 new recipes
- several other things such as GUIs
The Shadowlands dimension is a dark shadowy dimension with grey trees and black stone dungeons along with occasional red cactus forests, here you will find the keys to the Glowshroom Forest and Vellium dimentions.
The Glowshroom forest has glowing mushrooms everywhere, but be careful - some of them can move and are not at all welcoming to outsiders. The dimension also has strange stinging Jellyfish and Spore Mines (inspired by Warhammer 40k) the spore mines seem harmless but will explode without warning if you go near them. And of course there are plenty of towers and dungeons to loot and explore.
The Forgotten Desert dimension can be reached by acquiring a gold coin from a Trader robot, the desert has huge ruined rusty metal towers and generators - the remnants of an advanced civilisation lost to the harsh sandy wasteland
The Vellium dimension is a bright sunny cheerful place - but do not be fooled - the strange yellow one-eyed beasts which inhabit it are deadly, and if you're not careful you can get hopelessly lost in the low lying fields of fluffy cloud.
The Bloodlust dimension is an evil dark place, full of hostile mobs and covered in sharp spikes which without the right armor can tear apart the player, a powerful boss can be summoned here - but it's very powerful so make sure you can get back to the altar if you get killed (don't worry it won't despawn)
The Sparkpolia dimension is a vast ocean with forested islands, it is a dimension full of creepers and strange ghostly mobs. There are currently no structures there but that will may change in the next update.

UPDATE 2.6!
Fixed a lot of non-game-breaking bugs, buffed several of the bosses to include occasional healing and extra damage, made rare mushrooms obtainable (although very rare), removed Bloodlust overlay, doubled Cyprendium ore spawning. 1.18.2 support may be added next update, I do not yet know when that will be. It is very unlikely that 1.17 support will be added.
UPDATE 2.6.1, 2.6.2. 2.6.3!
Several bugfix updates have been made.
2.6.1 Changelog:
Fixed Toxic Spore being unobtainable, also changed Sacrificial Circle to say how much power it needs and changed shadowmetal cooler GUI to warn that it can only hold 2 ingots.
2.6.2 Changelog:
Doubled rusty trader spawn rate to 2k per 1m chunks as their small size made them very hard to find, fixed batteries being unobtainable, fixed Casting Furnace using wrong item to craft, fixed Spore King not attacking. Removed Meteoric Descent advancement as it was unobtainable. Improved AI on several mobs.
2.6.3 changelog:
Fixed Creepership not spawning, fixed Red Nightmare not giving advancement upon death, fixed Large Creepers not having the right loot table, made instructions on Watershrine clearer.
UPDATE 2.6.4
2.6.4 Changelog:
Fixed Creeperships spawning in every dimension
UPDATE 2.6.5 - 2.6.6
2.6.5 - 2.6.6 Changelogs:
Bug fixes
UPDATE 2.7
2.7 Changelog:
Replaced copyright screen with a less intrusive once-per-player chat message, added Polished Shadowstone Wall recipe, fixed a few spelling mistakes, added chance for Void Fruit to drop from Shadow Spirits since the void forest does not generate. Replaced the old ore drops system with proper loot tables. Added various items (such as leaves) to vanilla tags. Removed various unused textures.
Biome spawning had to be redone due to 1.19.2 worldgen, this means biomes are larger and some biomes had to be excluded, you may need to travel a long distance (1k - 2k blocks) to find all the biomes in a dimension. Biomes do have more varied heights now though, removing the need for separate mountain biomes.
Biomes which no longer spawn:
Void forest, Shadowlands Red, Shadowlands Mountains, Glowshroom Forest Mountains, Glowshroom Forest Huge Mountains.
I also updated the mod to work in 1.19.2
The custom sky is actually just an overlay (like what a pumpkin does when worn) it looks alright in screenshots but it can be a bit annoying when playing, I'll probably replace it with something else next time I update the mod. I've tried other ways of making a proper custom sky but I wasn't able to find anything which works.
It might be possible to make a resource pack change custom dimension sky, some packs which use Optifine can change the sky in the vanilla dimensions, and resource packs can change modded items if the folders and files have the right names, but I haven't tested doing that myself. Another way might be adding a huge cube shaped entity as the skybox, but you would need a different mod to change how Minecraft renders entities, as entities which are very large often become invisible, I don't know if any mod fixes this (Optifine doesn't)
Nope, sadly there is no way to obtain 4 sticks, I just tested it, and classic wood also gives the same amount. I hope to see fix for that, because I'd love to see these dimensions, they look really interesting (that deserty especially, I love wastelands with such atmosphere)
