Mod Overview: Elomod
Elomod is an expansive content mod that enriches your Minecraft world by introducing new resource tiers, unique armor sets, custom tools, weaponry, and a complete wood type.
1. New Resource Tiers
The mod introduces several custom geological resources that can be mined, smelted into ingots or dust, and crafted into storage blocks:
- Cilium: A tier complete with its own ore, blocks, and gear.
- Garinium: Includes mineable Garinium Ore or Garinium Blocks and gears.
- Lifium: Features Lifium Ore, Ingots, and unique crafting components like the Lifium Stick and also the Lifesteal Sword.
- Nelium: Generates Nelium Ore, which can be refined into Nelium Dust.
- Rusty Iron: An alternative or oxidized iron variant introducing Rusty Iron Ores, Ingots, Nuggets, and a conversion recipe.
- Zelenium: A rare material set including custom ores and ingots.
- Zen: A top-tier material featuring Zen Ingots, and Zen Blocks.
- Silicon: You know what we do with those things.
2. Armor and Equipment
Nearly all of the new resource tiers feature their own beautifully textured, fully functional gear:
- Tool Progression: Craft Swords, Pickaxes, Axes, Shovels, and Hoes using Cilium, Garinium, Rusty Iron, and Zelenium.
- Armor Sets: Protect yourself with specialized Helmets, Chestplates, Leggings, and Boots for Cilium, Garinium, Rusty Iron, Zelenium, and Zen tiers.
- Special Weaponry:
- Lifesteal Sword: A unique magical blade equipped with a custom hit procedure that drains health from your enemies to heal you upon impact.
- Zen Sword: An endgame blade.
3. Bluey Wood Ecosystem
Elomod adds a brand-new tree and wood ecosystem called Bluey. It behaves like standard vanilla wood types but offers a fresh look for builders. The set includes:
- Bluey Logs, Stripped Logs, Wood, and Stripped Wood.
- Bluey Leaves.
- Planks & Construction: Planks, Slabs, Stairs, Fences, and Fence Gates.
- Redstone Components: Buttons, Pressure Plates, Doors, and Trapdoors.
- Signage: Custom Bluey Signs and Hanging Signs (including wall-mounted variants).
- Transport: Bluey Boats and Bluey Chest Boats to navigate waterways.
4. Technical Integration
- Tag Compatibility: Fully integrated with vanilla Minecraft mechanics, adding items to correct tags (like
#minecraft:logs_that_burn,#minecraft:mineable/pickaxe, and#minecraft:swords). - World Generation: Utilizes NeoForge's biome modifier system to dynamically generate Cilium, Garinium, Lifium, Nelium, Rusty Iron, and Zelenium ores naturally into your underground world.
- Composting: Includes mod data maps to ensure natural items (like Bluey Leaves) can be thrown right into a composter.
