### *"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."*
This is a **fabric-only mod** that aims to recreate the atmosphere of classic magic mods. It is inspired by historical alchemy, and will have strong emphasis on visuals and automation.
Currently Pre-Alpha - Incomplete, but contains some of the ever-increasing number of blocks, items, and worldgen features.
This mod requires TerraBlender. Download it here: [https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/terrablender-fabric](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/terrablender-fabric) Additionally, due to changes since Minecraft 1.18, biome modifications are currently incompatible with other biome mods/datapacks.
## Planned Features - **Automatable alchemy** for extracting energy from materials - **Wisps**, sentient beings that grant the player abilities and control the balance of the world - **Staves** with selectable foci - a unique tool and weapon system - **World generation** - resources, biomes, tree types, and structures - **Progression** based on exploration and crafting (rather than scanning and research) - A **really special book** that hints at lore and progression as the player discovers more - **Good looking blocks** - loads of wood types, building blocks, furniture, and lighting options - **Really cool effects** for staves, alchemy, and wherever else I can make something look good ## Inspiration - **Actual alchemy** - many features are direct implementations of ancient scientific tools and terminology - **BiomesOP** - foliage and custom biome implementation - **Thaumcraft** (what magic mod isn't?) ## Currently Implemented - Six new tree types with entirely custom (but work-in-progress) generation - Their respective log/wood/stripped variants, leaves, plank variants, stairs, and slabs - Some worldgen (one custom biome) - Crafting recipes, furnace recipes, and blast furnace recipes - Base models and texture work ## Common Questions - **When will this be done?** Not sure. I'm a novice modder and life is a thing. Major updates will be on my [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/c/trufflezmc); in the meantime, progress is available [on GitHub](https://github.com/trufflezmc/trufflez-arcanum/commits/master). - **Will you support older Minecraft versions?** This mod depends on features from 1.17 and the upcoming 1.19 update, so, no. - **Can you implement X feature?** Maybe! I'm always open to suggestions. There will eventually be a Discord server to make this process easier. - **Did X feature rip off Y mod?** Probably not. Each feature was designed from a blank slate with tons of historical research. For this reason, many concepts and terminology overlap other mods. - **Will this be available on Forge?** No.
