About this Mod
A mod that adds a new dimension to Minecraft, known as Vulcadia. It is still under heavy development and all feedback or suggestions are welcomed.
Three mobs, 5 biomes, 2 ores and a new 4x4 crafting table are added by this mod. It doesn't require anything special, and ask me on discord about recipes if you need to.
You must make a hammer from sticks and iron, and use it on netherrack to make dust. Putting the dust in a blast furnace turns it into ash, and putting the ash into a smithing table with blaze powder make compressed volcanic ash, the portal frame block. Brewing a blaze rod into a lava bucket makes an essence of pyro, the portal igniter.
As of now, only one wood type exists, the smoky trees, but more are planned to be added in the future.
A new mob in the dimension, known as the firecow, can be killed to get fire cured beef and fire cured leather. Eating the beef gives you temporary fire resistance, and the leather can be used to make armor that gives fire resistance permanently.
If you have any more questions, you can either ask me on discord, or watch my devlogs on youtube, channel name is Royal.
