Familiar Additions - a Minecraft Mod
@familiaradditions.bsky.social
Familiar Additions, a Minecraft Mod, introduces new yet familiar content: scrapped features, elements from Minecraft spinoffs, and completely new ideas. FA is built off of Mojang's design philosophy to make new content fit the game, with some exceptions.
At long last, after over a year of attempts, I have finally figured out how to do emissive textures in Neoforge 1.21.1. Figuring out how to do stuff like this where you can go back on many existing features and update them is an indescribable feeling. #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
I felt that music discs needed a little freshening up, so I locked in and gave them exactly that. Music discs never really read as flat discs to me so I gave them all an edge highlight. #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
3 minutes of Redstone Labs ambience. The Redstone Labs do something that no other structure does; play unique ambience in the structure's bounding box. There are many different sounds that play, including some that only play under specific conditions. #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
Random features including Hanging Cables, which as of today, are feature complete! They serve as a decorative and functional block that, when powered, propagate Redstone power down the entire column with no distance limit, but they only power the block below. #minecraftmod #mcdev #gamedev #minecraft
a very familiar addition that deserves to be in vanilla minecraft: nether brick fence gates. also I have no idea what was going on with the crafting, when I manually place items to craft it was glitchy, but when I used the book, it was fine??? h e lp #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft

after so many hours of development, the Redstone Labs COMPLETELY GENERATE! this has by far been one of my biggest achievements and I have you guys to thank for the support. this is only the beginning of the journey to making this structure an experience. #mcdev #minecraft #gamedev #minecraftmod
the block that doesn't care if it's vanilla friendly or not, the siren, doing what it does best; blaring. the warden is not particularly fond of it. the siren serves as a distraction for the warden but punishment for those who try to cheese the redstone labs. #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
chests now give visual and audible feedback when trying to open them with an obstruction, and compasses can now be placed and point towards the nearest entity with a matching compass type. #mcdev #minecraft #minecraftmod #gamedev
a new crafting type has been added to FA along with lab table functionality! reconstitution is data-driven and serves as balanced uncrafting! recipes define an input, up to 9 outputs, decay & processing time. when no items are processed, a fail effect plays! #mcdev #gamedev #minecraft #minecraftmod
bluesky is not letting me share a video so here's something else. I might have locked in after my first json system success and completed my own recipe type. this might be the most useful thing in all of FA but y'all will have to wait to see more. #mcdev #minecraftmod #minecraft #gamedev
I am so good at keeping track of development like I definitely totally write now development progress each update (HELP MEEEEEEE RAHHGGGHHHHHH) I have so much insane stuff to share but I don't know how. hamburger 🍕
I have been making a LOT of sound types recently, many of which are for vanilla blocks, and I had the idea to give beds a custom soundtype but it resulted in something more: beds now play sounds for jumping, sleeping, and waking up. much fun #mcdev #minecraft #minecraftmod #gamedev
gone are the days of hardcoded block chiseling and crushing. chisels and maces are now used in a new block conversion system that's purely data-driven. with this system, you can use any item to turn any block into another while playing any sound + cooldown! #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
I am looking for help in structure generation! does anyone know why this structure is cut off during world generation but not with a jigsaw? this structure is made of 25 segments which are template pools themselves but the outer segments are cut off. #mcdev #minecraftmod #minecraft #gamedev
redstone cables! these are extremely versatile blocks as a decoration but they are also planned to work as vertical redstone but with only 1 redstone power and with no distance limit. I have no idea where to start when it comes to powering these... #mcdev #minecraftmod #minecraft #gamedev
Minecraft's inventory problem can so easily be fixed, but not entirely eliminated, by increasing stack sizes of items such as these. literally why are cakes of all things unstackable? #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
mixins are goated. I have changed cave spiders to have smaller eyes to match a new low resolution texture, they also have less health but are smaller in size. monster spawners now emit random ambient sounds similar to trial spawners but with a looping sound #minecraftmod #mcdev #minecraft #gamedev
countless quality of life changes/additions to the food and brewing system along with more utilities! there is so much, I am not great at showing and explaining things, so if something is interesting, do ask! there is much more to come from these changes. #mcdev #minecraftmod #gamedev #minecraft
even more fire axe improvements! the fire axe can now scrape blocks such as crusted bricks and rusted steel on impact to revert to previous stages. (copper support is coming) additionally, returning fire axes with loyalty can now pull items along with them #minecraft #minecraftmod #mcdev #gamedev
ducts and fans: the perfect pair of blocks. fan blocks are pretty self-explanatory, they push entities, specifically ones in an entity tag. ducts are multi-face blocks that can be crawled through. they went from a log type block to a very versatile one thanks to a suggestion by @coolbug.bsky.social!
fire axe updates! fire axes can now strip logs upon impact and have received a unique enchantment, lumberer, that allows for them to break any blocks tagged as logs. additionally, lumberer is compatible with efficiency. #mcdev #minecraft #minecraftmod #gamedev
the chisel has finally received a new animation for chiseling blocks, along with updated sounds! now that I've figured out item animations, do expect to see more. also, I am very aware that this is not how chisels work, but this is simple Minecraft logic. #mcdev #minecraft #minecraftmod #gamedev
these things creep me out the most out of everything in FA for some reason #mcdev #minecraft #minecraftmod #gamedev
