Exploration Reloaded
Maps, loot, mobs, and travel reloaded.
About this Mod
Exploration Reloaded
Exploration Reloaded expands Minecraft's sense of discovery without turning it into a different game. It brings selected exploration-focused ideas from Fixed Minecraft into a standalone Fabric mod: more reasons to follow maps, revisit structures, travel with animals, fish, search ruins, and prepare for longer journeys.
The mod adds new exploration routes through structure maps, Map Book tools, reworked travel loot, sniffer rewards, fishing changes, Dragon Firework progression, and small creature-focused improvements. It is built for players who want the world to feel a little richer while staying close to vanilla Minecraft.
This project includes code and data derived from Fixed Minecraft by green_jab, used with permission.
