Summary

This data pack assumes that the Nether is spicy hot!

Real Nether is a data pack which aims to make the Nether a little harder while also providing a new twist to the way that Netherite works, and new ways to traverse the Nether.

The vanilla Netherite has been replaced with Netherite Alloy. Use a Netherite Forge to get real Netherite.

Function

Going into the Nether without one of these will cause you to combust:

  • Full Netherite Armor (not Netherite Alloy)
  • Ice Totem (in off-hand)
    • Icy Soul
    • Frozen Spirit
    • Glaciated Wraith
  • Fire Resistance
  • Inside Powdered Snow

¡ New Features !

-- The Netherite Forge!
(a new player-made structure)

The Netherite Forge is made from polished blackstone (which is acquired in the Nether), and is used to smelt Ancient Debris and Netherite Scrap, producing Netherite Scrap and Netherite Nuggets respectively.

-- The Ice Machine

The Ice Machine is used to make Ice (from Ice Shards), Ice Totems, and Packed/Blue ice.

-- The Netherite Smithtable

The Netherite Smithtable is used to create Netherite Items, such as: Ingots, Swords, Pickaxes, Armor, etc. . .
