Update on Patreon Mods Going Forward

Hey everyone! First of all, thank you guys so much for the support so far. With your help, I've been able to both pay for the development of the Exploration Mod as well as the development of future mods to come! You guys are all absolutely amazing. However, I am going to be making some changes to how I do my mods from now on.

I recommend watching this video on it to get you up to speed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6XbhP4Y7D4

Long story short, the Patreon will now become a place for us to post early version of future mods for you guys to play and give feedback on. While we develop future mods, we'll post every new version to this Patreon. You guys will be able to test the new features, give any feedback/ideas you have, and we'll use that feedback to make the mod as good as it can be. Then, when both the mod and video are done, we'll post both at the same time publicly.

I'm super sorry for the switchup only one month in here, I didn't properly think this through when it comes to the ethics of having a fully paywalled Minecraft mod. I want as many people to enjoy the mod as possible, and I think this is the best way for that to happen.

Because this is a different system than I initially advertised, if anyone at all wants a refund I'll be happy to give it to you. Just send me a private message here on Patreon and we'll get it all sorted out.

Thank you lads for the support so far, and I can't wait to keep making awesome content for you all :))

July Newsletter

sorry for radio silence! i've been away for about a week so I haven't been as active as I've wanted to be.

first of all, HUGE THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE CHANNEL! you guys are absolute legends, seriously. I try super hard to make my videos as high-quality as they can be rather than just pushing out slop for views/ad rev, so even if you're just here for a month the support means so much! 

but let's get back to business. the first thing I want to add to the patreon is a minecraft server, and I wanted to ask you guys what exactly you'd want from a patron server. should there be a claims system in place, or should it be free-roam? how strict should rules be enforced? how often (if at all) would you guys want world resets? if you have any suggestions at all, drop them in the comments or in the ⁠patron lounge section of my discord server. I really wanna make sure this server is the most fun it can possibly be.

again, thank you all for the support and I can't wait to bring you guys more awesome stuff in the future!

Jet's Pack 1.20.4

Here is the resource pack commonly seen in my videos! It's all updated for 1.20.4.

View Post

Jet's Better Exploration v1.0.0 (1.20.4)

Jet's Better Exploration strives to tweak and improve all things... well... exploration.

If you just want the mod and don't care about all this boring changelog stuff, just scroll down to the bottom of the page and the download should be right there.

Minecart acceleration logic adapted from Audaki's Cart Engine. Please check out their work too: https://github.com/audaki/minecraft-cart-engine

If you did stick around, congratulations; you're one of the only members of my audience that can read for more than 8 seconds. Here's all the changes we've made in this mod:

Ancient Cities

Ancient Cities, as we all know, are useless as hell. But here are a couple changes we made to make them better:

Ancient Explorer Map

  • Leads directly to the location of an Ancient City, similarly to other explorer maps

  • Obtained from Cartographer Villagers as a master level trade (2/3 chance)

  • Trade will only become possible to obtain after the Ender Dragon has been defeated

Spawn Rate

  • Ancient Cities now spawn 2x less often

Sculk Vial

  • Can store up to 1395 Experience Points (30 levels)

  • Shift right-click to store all available experience

  • Drink to instantly obtain all stored experience

  • Crafted with seven echo shards

Loot Table

  • The Ancient City's Loot Table has been updated to include ALL types of diamond armor/tools, not just pants

  • Seriously why did they make it just pants? smh

Woodland Mansions

Remember these things? No? Exactly. They suck. Here’s what we did to fix that:

Spawn Rates

  • Woodland Mansions now spawn 3x more often

  • You’re welcome

Recovery Compass

  • The Recovery Compass is now exclusively found in Woodland Mansions (you will find approximately 0-2 per mansion)

  • Its texture has been updated to fit this (this texture sucks if you know how to make textures please reach out I need help)

  • Its crafting recipe has been removed

Biomes

Remember the last time you were excited to discover a jungle? Yeah, it was probably over a decade ago. Hopefully, these tweaks will fix that:

Biome Diversification

  • Biomes can now have different properties when it comes to ore spawning, crop growth, and librarian book trades.

  • For example, the Jungle now has more diamonds than usual, faster crop growth for Melons, Bamboo, and Cocoa Beans, and more of a chance of unlocking Unbreaking, Feather Falling, Projectile Protection, or Power books from a librarian

  • Specialized attributes like this exist for almost every biome in the game. Here’s the full documentation:

These changes are meant to give more incentive for players to settle in different biomes; maybe you build a farm in one, or mine in another. Either way, it gets you out and about and not holed up in your stupid-ass wooden plains house.

Transportation

Everyone loves minecarts–but nobody uses them. Why? Because transportation is fucked. Like, seriously fucked. But I’m gonna try to fix it anyway:

Minecarts

  • Regular Minecarts now go 1.5x faster (12m/s)

Rails

  • Crafting recipe now gives 24 rails, up from 16

Powered Rails

  • Crafting recipe has been changed to require copper instead of gold

  • Texture has been updated accordingly

Super Powered Rails

  • Delivers 1.5x more minecart propulsion than normal powered rails (18m/s)

  • Crafted with the vanilla powered rails recipe (gold)

Horses

  • Horses now have a sprinting mechanic

  • While sprinting, horses go 10% faster than their vanilla spee

  • Horses can only sprint for a set amount of time before they become exhausted

  • While exhausted, horses go 40% slower than their vanilla speed

  • Horses can sprint for a max of 20 seconds

  • The stamina bar takes 20 seconds to fully recharge

Horse Gamerules

  • Added several gamerules to adjust the horse sprinting mechanic:

  • horseStaminaTicks: adjusts the amount of ticks horses are allowed to sprint before becoming exhausted

  • horseStaminaRegenTicks: adjusts the amount of ticks to add back to the stamina bar per tick of not sprinting

  • horseSprintBuff: adjusts the percentage of movement speed to add when the horse is sprinting

  • horseSprintDebuff: adjusts the percentage of movement speed to remove when the horse becomes exhausted

Horse Armor

  • Horse armor now has durability

  • Horse armor is now enchantable

  • Horse Armor Enchantments include Protection, Fire Protection, Projectile Protection, Blast Protection, Unbreaking, Thorns, Respiration, Frost Walker, Feather Falling, Depth Strider, and Soul Speed

Striders

  • Striders no longer get cold when they are outside of lava in the Nether

  • They will now only get cold in the Overworld/End (unless they are in lava)

  • Striders now spawn on land in the Nether

Boats

  • Boats no longer move quickly on ice (fuck you)

  • Can be changed via the gamerule allowIceBoatSpeed

Ice

  • All forms of ice blocks now melt when placed in the nether

  • Say goodbye to your nether highway dumbass

And that's about it for what the mod adds. This is the first one I've ever made, so feedback is greatly appreciated (I have no idea what I am doing). Head over to my Discord server and check out the patron lounge to submit feedback, report bugs, or get any questions you may have answered.

The minecart speed changes are only possible thanks to the great work of the Audaki Cart Engine mod! The creator has allowed us to use parts of its code for our mod, which we wouldn't have been able to make without them.

Like I said at the beginning, the download for the mod should be right below this post. Thank you again so so much for supporting the channel, hopefully this (and the future mods I plan to make) will be worth it. seeya :))
