Bountiful is a mod centered around a single block called the Bounty Board, and items which appear within: Bounties!
The Bounty Board:
Mechanics:
Finding a bounty board is easy, they show up quite often in villages (There is a config option to enable a simple recipe as well). Once you have found a bounty board, it will start to fill with bounties. These bounties come and go at random, and each bounty will ask you to collect a couple of items, or kill a couple of mobs of a certain type. Each bounty also has a list of rewards which you'll get once you fulfill the bounty. If you don't like any of the bounties that are available, you can come back later. Old bounties get taken down and replaced with new ones all the time! Once you see one you'd like, bring it with you.
Once you're collected all items that the bounty is asking for, and/or you have killed all of the mobs that it is asking for, just right click on the bounty board with the bounty to turn it in, and your reward will be given to you in return.
By default, the only items that show up in the bounty board are from vanilla minecraft, and the only rewards are gold ingots and gold nuggets. The intention is for modpack makers to add their own possible bounty items to the board through the use of the config JSON files. You can also specify entirely different rewards if you would like.
A simple Bounty:
Bounty Tiers:
Just like items, bounties can have a tier of rarity. As you find more rare bounties, the reward for fulfilling them will be greater than that of normal bounties. Rarity follows the same pattern as in vanilla: Common, Uncommon, Rare and Epic.
Why?
I originally made this mod so that I could be given some goals to accomplish, which would stave off boredom. Also, this mod works well on servers. If your server uses a common currency, you can set the rewards to be said currency.
Commands:
- "/bountiful reload" or "/bo reload" reloads the bounty json data in-game without having to restart.
- Additional commands, as well as instructions on how to modify bounties, can be found on the wiki.

Is there support for killing enemies of a certain "name" ?
all of CNPC entities are technically the same entity, for example. but we have 100's of different types of creatures with different stats/visuals. but are essentially the same entity.
Hey nice mod! Setting up the rewards and bounties has been pretty simple so far. One thing I'm confused about is if oredictionary is supported when it comes to the bounties. For example I want to have a bounty request copper ingots but I'm not sure how to do it so that any copper ingot will work from multiple mods. There might be a simple solution but i couldn't find anything about it on the github page.
So question and I dont know if this is in the plans for an update or something so ill ask just to be sure.
Is it possibel to add diffrent type of bounty boards, like type A reads quest from list A and B reads quest from list B so you can split them in like easy, medium and hard quest or tie them to like bounty board A spawns vanilla quests, bounty boards B spawns nether quests and bounty boards C spawns X-mod quest.
Like I said I dont know if thats planned or even will work, but I was making some quest for a friend and we talked about how it would be nice to have diffrent type to sort out the quest so we could have our twilight forest quest spawn on one board and vanilla on an other.
Hope you see this and have time to reply.
In reply to HerskerMS:
This is kind of my idea for v3.0. You'll be able to pull bounties/rewards from different lists for each board, and you'll also be able to modify which lists each board pulls from with the use of different items. Once Forge 1.14 is more mature I'll look into it for a rewrite for that version - but for now I'm just kind of fixing bugs for 1.12 when they crop up!
In reply to ejektaflex:
Sounds good, keep up the good work.
We are still learning how to add diffrent type of items to quest :D
Also bonus question:
Is it possibel to make two demands for one quest, i know you can have them have more in one quest but like a single quest like kill 10 zombies, kill 2 creepers kill 1 ender dragon as one quest?
In reply to HerskerMS:
Since bounties are randomized, you unfortunately can't really guarantee that they will show up together. This mod is all about randomly generating bounties. However, I've had requests for this before so I might think about a separate config section for completely pre-made bounties. It's not my top priority, though. We'll see what gets done! I just started looking into a 1.14 port.
If you need any help, use the wiki. You can also send a friend request to Ejektaflex#4616 on Discord, and I can help you from there if you need it.
Would it be possible to add support for currency from economy mods like Grand Economy and Forge Essentials as a bounty reward?
In reply to Darkiceflame:
Sure, just read the wiki. You can add anything as a reward!
his mod is amazing! I really love this mod! But I think it's weird that a bounty board's model is a block, I think it will be really good if its model is more like a sign block or something:D
In reply to charlobo_:
This has been on my list for quite a while, I just haven't got around to it yet!
I love this mod, and was wondering if you would be able to add the ability to name Bounties and add descriptions for them?
I'd love to use this mod in my RPG-ish modpack, and being able to name and describe bounties would help a lot with the immersion.
In reply to vizthex:
Something similar to this (a little bit more flavor) is coming to v3.0.
In reply to ejektaflex:
Awesome, cantt wait!
Could it be possible to create multiple bounties files so that different regions can have other bounties? Would be nice when you have a mod that increases difficulty further from the spawn or if you want a bountiboard for the nether or other dimensions and so on. Desert people could ask for water or something desert related.
EDIT: Looked into the code.. could be messy to change the registry and make it modular.. don't get my hopes up as it's a special case.
In reply to kantsche:
Not currently, but that's in the works for v3.0, whenever I decide to get around to that. I definitely have this kept in mind (though I have the rewrite in a different repository, so you won't see said changes online)!
I'm gonna try experimenting myself when I get to my home computer, but I figure I'll also ask here in case you see this before I get back: do the config files accept the namespace ID's? For example, to add lapis as a reward, would it accept "minecraft:lapis_lazuli", or will the fact that lapis is also classified as "minecraft:dye" cause problems with that?
Also, is there any way to tie a given reward to a specific bounty? I was thinking about adding spawn eggs as rare rewards, but I'd prefer to tie the spawn egg reward to the entity kill bounties so, for example, the only time a skeleton spawn egg shows up as a reward is for a bounty asking you to kill skeletons.
In reply to JRutterbush:
I'm not sure what other namespaces there could be, because lapis lazuli in item form is exclusively "minecraft:dye:4", so that's what you'd want to use. If you are unsure of what the ID of an item is, install CraftTweaker and use the command "/ct hand" to check!
You can't currently tie specific rewards to specific bounties, but a solution to that is coming with Bountiful v3, whenever I decide to work on it. For now, your only real solution is to group things based on Game Stages.
I've only just played around with it in my single-player world and wow! I've used Bailey's Dailies which is somewhat similar in concept but nowhere near as elegant in solution. Congratulations -- this is definitely a mod that's going to be going into ... pretty much every pack I ever make.
In reply to Noobanidus:
Hey, thanks! I really appreciate it. Bailey's Dailies is and was super cool - but I always felt like it has a little bit of a balance issue and didn't play well with other modpacks, so this was my solution. I'm glad you like it!
I'm running the Life in the Village pack, and right clicking on the board with completed bounties isn't doing anything. I've also tried changing it so just right clicking should submit for rewards, and that doesn't work either.
Any idea what could be causing this issue?
