About this Mod

The Moon and Sun mod is here!

This is my first mod and after much waiting (from really just my friends), it has arrived in version 1.0!

What this mod does:

This mod adds a new dimension, and 2 new ores mainly. The following is a full explanation of exactly what the mod does.

Moonstone

Once you go to the end dimension, on the outer end islands you will find Moonstone Ore. Once mined only with a diamond pickaxe or higher, you will get one Raw Moonstone. Putting 4 Raw Moonstone, 4 diamonds, and a netherite ingot in the center, will get you one Moonstone. From now on, in every end ship chest, there will be exactly one Moonstone upgrade template. You can duplicate this template with the template, an end stone brick, and 7 diamonds. Putting a Moonstone, the armor or tool you want to upgrade (netherite only), and a Moonstone upgrade template, you will get Moonstone armor/tools! These are exactly 3x stronger than netherite.

Sunstone

Putting 9 Moonstone in a crafting table will get you a Block of Moonstone. Make this in the shape of a nether portal and light it with a Sunstone Igniter, made from 2 Moonstone in a crafting table. Lighting this portal will take you to the Sun dimension This is made solely of Sun Blocks which take 2x longer than deepslate to mine. Here you can find the VERY rare Sunstone ore, which takes 2x longer than obsidian to mine, and drops 1 Raw Sunstone. This has the exact same process as moonstone, but different materials. You put 4 Raw Sunstone, 4 netherite ingots, and a nether star in the center to make a Sunstone ingot. Putting this in a smithing table with a Sunstone upgrade template made from 9 Moonstone upgrade templates in a crafting table, and a Moonstone armor/tool. This will get you Sunstone armor/tools, which are 10x stronger than netherite. They are also invisible, so no one will know you have the armor.

Why do you want this mod?

When me and my friends play minecraft, we find ourselves getting bored after netherite, because there is no more to progress. To fix this problem, I spent weeks making this mod so we could play longer while it still being captivating and fun. I believe that this has the same effect on most people too, so that is why you should download this mod.

Info about the current version:

This is Beta 1.3, the first version to be released publicly. I have fixed most giant bugs but there are still many small things I need to fix. Please don't get mad at me for having a lot of bugs, you have been warned.

The main version of this mod is NeoForge, but fabric works fine, and Forge will come soon.
