  • fixed a crucial bug in the config generator preventing creation of modded biome configs
  • you can now wash chaos creepers with a water bucket! this resets their biome to a biome they are washed in.
  • chaos skeletons are optimised a bit
  • there's a new toggle in the config to force all random biomes to only allow full blocks as their surface - thus preventing biomes covered in doors, fences etc.
  • there's also an experimental toggle to disable chaos mobs from spawning
  • you don't need the altar anymore to include modded content in dimension generation! the game does it by itself! wheee!!
  • that said, the transfinite altar is still kept as a decoration block
  • biomes are now included in auto-detectable modded content, together with their surface rules! that was the most code-heavy part
  • you can also configure the maximum number of biomes that can be observed in multinoise / checkerboard worlds. default is 6
  • the biomes should hopefully mix a bit better as i restricted their multinoise generation parameters to between -1 and 1 (before it was -2 and 2 - on extreme ends, biomes think they are super rare e.g. mushroom islands and refuse generating :/)
  • cassian fixed an annoying f5 bug with custom shaders - thanks to them :3

i believe that from this point on all roundabouts like altars and commands and needing to delete files to update the mod - are gone. now the mod is just playable without needing to do weird stuff even once :D

  • Amount and scale of stars can be now customized.
  • Multiple moons can now be present in the sky.
  • For each moon, texture, tint, axis and speed of rotation can be configured separately.
  • These sky options are now actually used in dimension generation.
  • Fixed a startup crash related to the autoupdater
  • Even more sky customization options
  • Added support for custom sky textures.
  • Red, green and blue dimensions for shader testing.
  • More fixes to spawn requirements: now passive mobs don't check for grass when in modded biomes.
  • Naturally spawned sheep in modded biomes can be any color :D
  • Added an auto-updater for config files, hopefully this puts a stop to manually purging configs.
  • Fixed chaos mobs lacking spawn restrictions and thus spawning in midair.

Merged pull requests by cassiancc and JPeroutek:

  • EMI integration for mod's "throw a thing into a portal" recipes;
  • fix for a crash with throwing empty books into portals;
  • consistensy between unsigned and signed books;
  • portals auto-opening when portal key is empty;
  • F5 doesn't get rid of dimensional shaders;
  • File.separator in use for config generations instead of hardcoded "/".
  • Added the Reset Charge: an item that disables dimensions on activation by deleting their datapack. The region files are not deleted, so a dimension can be regenerated later (after the server restarts) and all the blocks will still be there. This is meant for use on servers to reduce the amount of unneeded dimensions in a server's memory.
  • To activate the charge, place it and shift-right click with an empty hand. A normal rightclick will pick an inactive charge up.
  • The charge is completely safe outside of the mod's dimensions and can even be used as a light source.
  • Added two new advancements related to the reset charge.

Bugfixes:

  • Fixed a crash with entities forgetting their getWorld implementation
  • Taught the Easterizer to respect the differences between operating systems
  • Gravity can now vary between dimensions.
  • Added the Classic density function type and the Pyramid structure.

Bugfixes:

  • Attempting to leave an "easter" dimension through a portal now works correctly.
  • Removed debug messages that are no longer needed.
  • Solar scale, lunar scale and temporal scale are now all customizable.
  • Weather in the mod's dimensions now obeys the /weather command.
  • Shaders and other custom options for all dimensions are now stored on the disk alongside the rest of the dimension's datapack.

Bugfixes:

  • Chaos slimes now have an appropriate hitbox.
  • A weird crash with chaos mobs losing track of if they have a custom name or not is fixed.
  • Loot tables for chaos pawns are fixed.
  • Easter worlds now can properly be assigned shaders and other custom options (this process was broken before).
  • Added the ability to force a shader upon a player depending on the dimension they are in. It is used by some random dimensions for simply changing the colors around (the chance for it is config-governed), but...
  • ...there is a way to embed any vanilla-compatible post-processing shader into a custom "easter egg" dimension.
  • Also fixed a broken file in the pack that was spoiling the #minecraft:mineable/pickaxe block tag.
  • Also reworked the model of a book box so it's a bit less cursed to mine/outline/observe from small angles.
  • Also made the chaos mob family respect the power of Jeb.

Minor update dedicated to tweaking surface rules for generated biomes in such a way that prevents generation of top layer blocks in unstable positions.

Also fixes being unable to dye the transfinite altar in purple.

  • Added the Transfinite Altar, the block an interaction with which replaces the /generate_configs command.
  • Made the generation of configs on the altar be deployed immediately without the need to restart.
  • Fixed the book box not dropping its loot table.
  • Reworked the naming convention for "easter egg" dimensions: their dimension IDs now use readable text instead of hashed numeric IDs.
  • Added five new advancements related to the mod.
  • Chaos pawns now spawn in infinity portals much like zombified piglins do in nether portals.
  • Chaos pawns are now neutral mobs with group aggression.
  • Added a way of obtaining the Box of Infinite Books by throwing a bookshelf into an infinity portal.
  • Finally added the box of infinite books and the library dimension to go with it.
  • Added two more mobs: the chaos creeper, that sets the surrounding area to a certain biome upon explosion, and the chaos pawn, a very fast mob that drops random items.
  • Reworked the easter dimension format: they are now registered automatically without the need for a map.
  • Added content created by cassiancc.

Finally I'm starting to add actual new features. Onwards to beta!

This update introduces two new mobs: the Chaotic Slime and Chaotic Skeleton. I have larger plans for them, but for now both of them are exclusive to a dimension of their own to find :D

  • The Chaotic Slime has a random color tint to it and a random block in its core, which it drops upon being slain.
  • The Chaotic Skeleton is soaked in a random harmful potion and shoots arrows tipped with its effect.

Oh, and I've also updated the translation file.

Merged pull requests from unilock that fix a bug impeding the mod's functionality on servers and make the mod more other-mod-friendly overall via the use of a dimension loading event some mods use that I didn't know existed.

Updated the credits accordingly.

  • Added a new noise generator
  • Added the Menger and Skygrid custom density function types
  • Fixed vanilla trees being unable to generate in dimensions which don't have dirt
  • Fixed Infinity portals consuming keys on use even when their dimension is already generated
  • Added the /generate_configs command, which auto-generates compatibility packs for all loaded mods to the best of its ability, placing them in the /config/infinity/gen folder.
    • The command currently generates weighed lists for blocks, fluids, mobs, particles, items and sounds.
    • The command has two blockPos arguments. To properly use it, input the first block position to be surrounded by air and the second one one block above a stone block.
    • To use generated files as compatibility packs, for now you should manually drag the contents of /config/infinity/gen over to /config/infinity/modular, merging folders and replacing files. Make sure to reload the world after that for these changes to pass.
  • Added the Chaos custom material rule.
  • Prevented dimensions from generating structures too frequently (which can be very laggy due to mobs spawning in them).
  • Made the config/infinity/modular/.../extra/structures.json's format more mod-compatible.
  • Prevented several frequent features from using laggy blocks for generation.
  • Added custom material conditions for "easter egg" dimensions
  • Added floating pieces of text
  • Silenced excessive warning spam
  • Fixed a bug with some dimensions trying to find minecraft:air in the fluid registry, failing, and not generating at all
