π HX Events β Version 0.1.0
Seasonal Server Events, Custom Items, Loot Mechanics & Collectibles for the HX Server Network.
π What is HX Events?
HX Events is the dedicated seasonal content and event gameplay expansion for the modular HX Server Suite on Minecraft NeoForge 1.21.1. While HX Core provides the network-wide challenge tracker (/events), economy (HXUser coins), and admin dashboard (/hxadmin), HX Events brings your seasonal festivities to life with custom physical blocks, collectible currencies, trick-or-treat loot bags, themed consumables, interactive tools, and dynamic monster drops!
Starting with the Halloween Foundation Update, players can hunt monsters for spooky treats, search for glowing Cursed Pumpkins using a Soul Radar, crack open Goodie Bags for rare treasures and server coins, and collect shimmering Pumpkin Coins!
