I recently released my mod "The Red Abyss" (Referred to as TRA from this point on) and it occurred to me that people who download the mod may not understand how to get started with it.
The red abyss and how to get there:
In order to start in TRA, you need 5 things:
1 torch
1 rotten flesh
1 flesh block
1 tendon
1 villager
At least 10 blood bricks. (shaped like a nether portal)
The blood bricks can be crafted by combining nether bricks with flesh blocks in a (two for each in a 4x4 pattern), or located in a new structure found in plains/taigas.
The flesh block can be crafted out of 8 rotten flesh in the crafting grid.
Once you have your flesh block, you need to locate a village and place it down. A villager will use it as its jobsite block and will give you the tendon you need for a piece of raw beef.
Combine the one rotten flesh, one tendon and one torch in a crafting grid to get smoldering meat.
Use the blood bricks you crafted or found and build a portal similar to a nether portal out of them.
Finally, right-click on the portal with your smoldering meat to enter the red abyss dimension.
Congratulations! you have entered the first dimension!
(I highly recommend JEI when you play this mod)
The dark abyss and how to get there:
This is the second dimension for the mod. It requires you going to the red abyss first. In the red abyss, look for a flesh biome that is mostly blue. The is the corrupted flesh biome. The blocks here drop corruption which you can craft into compacted corruption blocks (3x3 grid in crafting table) You will need a minimum of 10 of these built into the shape of a nether portal.
The Ignitor for this portal is crafted like so:
1 bucket of acid (found in pools in the red abyss, often times underground.)
2 tough flesh blocks
1 corruption
1 blood bottle (crafted from a bucket of blood and four bottles)
1 Soul (Right-click on a Blood Alchemy Table with a piece of soul sand)
This will give you the hurt soul which is the ignitor for the portal.
Current Bosses:
There are two bosses in this mod currently:
1. The Forsaken God
2. The Flesh God
The forsaken god is summoned by using the Core Of Corruption (crafted by surrounding a flesh clump with compacted corruption blocks, eight of them to be precise)
This is an instant summon, so be ready.
Health: 700
Damage: 15
Drops: 1 netherite block (this may change)
Note that he is only vulnerable to direct player attacks!!!
The flesh god is summoned by breaking the Heart Of The World which can be found rarely underground. This is a flesh block with a diamond heart in the center.
The flesh god won't be summoned right away, breaking the Heart Of The World will grant you an effect called Theophobia which will summon the boss when the effect expires. This means you have time to drink milk to cancel the fight.
Health: 800
Damage: 50
Drops: 1 Flesh Upgrade Template (and a chance to drop regular upgrade templates)
The flesh god is FAST and HITS HARD, so I don't recommend fighting him at all.
The Template he drops can be used to upgrade the Void Sword to the Void Ripper
I will update this guide more when I have time
For now, use JEI for recipes.
