PasterDream v0.10.0-pre.5 Has Been Released

2026-10-01 · NeoForge 1.21.1

⚠️ Warning

This is a pre-release version and is not recommended as the main playable version.

This build contains breaking changes. Meltdream Chest loot no longer supports TOML customization, and Windmoor Leaves IDs have been merged. Read the Special Reminder below before upgrading.

Subsequent versions may further alter world generation and other systems. Breaking changes cannot be ruled out.

Special Reminder

Back up before entering an old-version world. If the save is damaged because you failed to back up, please take responsibility on your own.

This build adds a save compatibility layer and automatic backups. A confirmation screen will appear when upgrading old worlds, and you can also trigger it manually:

• /pasterdream save backup
• /pasterdream save status
• /pasterdream save upgrade

Breaking Changes

• Meltdream Chest loot is now data-driven. The original MeltdreamChestLootConfig and the three quality item pool TOML entries — along with their config screen entries — have been removed. To customize drops, override the loot tables with a data pack instead.
• Windmoor Leaves IDs have been merged. windmoor_leaves_0 / _1 / _2 blocks and items no longer exist; they are merged into windmoor_leaves. These old IDs were not added to the alias table — in old saves, all three blocks will lose their mapping.
• The windmoor_leaves_2 "no-collision, walk-through" variant is gone. All Windmoor Leaves now have collision.

✨ New

• Feature (worldgen): Rewrote Wind Journey world generation — 18 wind tree variants, a debug variant crystal, and merged shadow bookshelf variants.
• Feature (API): Added a save compatibility layer — old registry name → new registry name alias table (IdAlias / IdAliasTable / IdAliasRegistry / IdCompatAPI), automatic backups of old saves, an upgrade prompt GUI, and /pasterdream save status|backup|upgrade commands (0286c364).
• Feature (block): Added Windmoor Hanging Vine (windmoor_hanging_vine). Grows downward on random ticks, up to 12 blocks long. Responds to bone meal (5a88a1da).
• Feature (worldgen): Added the Wind Journey dimension noise setting wind_journey_world, and updated 5 structure NBTs (5a88a1da).
• Feature (worldgen): Added WindmoorTreeStructure — trunks require continuous island surface support; canopies are allowed to reach past the island edge (f497c8e9).

🔧 Fix

• PR #12 has been merged (Meltdream Chest accessory drop regression fix + restored configuration entries and config screen).
• Fix (block): Fixed the Meltdream Chest only offering the Myriad Ring and the Bobo Chicken's Splendid Feather. Restored the vanilla dimension loot tables loots_meltdream_chest_0/_1 (fa371beb).
• Fix (item): Wasteland Hero's Sword upgrading and Weapon Workshop forging now preserve enchantments, custom names, and workshop enhancements (ece22028).
• Fix (worldgen): Migrated the residual abandoned arena biome ID (aaroncos_arena_biome → aaroncos_arena) (f04f0fe3).
• Fix (worldgen): Adjusted Windmoor Tree generation — trunk load-bearing validation, canopies allowed past island edges (f497c8e9).
• Fix (worldgen): Windmoor Tree placement sunk to island surface (startHeight 0 → -8) (e69126e7).
• Fix (worldgen): Restored Wind Journey Windmoor Tree generation density (838528de).
• Fix (worldgen): Adjusted ice gates / ice arches / ice pillars / pack ice generation density to medium levels (7ede290c).
• Fix (worldgen): Reduced Meltdream aerial structure generation density and raised cloud bubble spawn height (fab6cb7a).
• Fix (worldgen): Expanded Meltdream Rift origin avoidance radius from 2 to 16, preventing duplicate spawn-point generation (a2c72b51).
• Fix (client): Meltdream ambient particles now spawn forward along the line of sight and move more slowly. Fixed particles appearing behind the view when turning the camera (5a88a1da).
• Fix (block): Cleaned up dead references and orphaned resources after the Windmoor Leaves merge. Removed the invalid SUPPRESSED blockstate property (9d7d9b10).
• Fix (worldgen): Corrected dimension BGM biome mapping misalignment and adjusted the Mushroom Plains generation threshold (0.86 → 0.75).
• Fix (worldgen): Fixed arena ruin infection structure query side effects and permanent lockout. Added a placement confirmation chain and healing flow.
• Fix (block): Added right-click repeat-trigger protection for Guard Crystals and Broken Shadow Portals.

♻️ Refactoring

• Refactor (loot): Meltdream Chest loot switched to native JSON loot tables. Removed TOML item pool configuration and config screen entries (5a88a1da).
• Refactor (block): Decoupled Meltdream Chest loot item set data. Added bonus tables / fallback pools / item tags / plushie loot APIs (6a33c955).
• Refactor (block): Windmoor Leaves merged into one — windmoor_leaves_0/1/2 → windmoor_leaves. Texture randomization now uses weighted blockstate variants (5a88a1da).

Known Explanation

• World generation parameter adjustments require creating a new world or deleting dimension data to fully take effect.
• Some structure generation optimizations are progressive adjustments; subsequent versions may continue to fine-tune.
• Meltdream Chest drops no longer support TOML customization. Override loots_meltdream_chest_*, loots_meltdream_chest_bonus_* and fallback_* loot tables with a data pack instead.
• The save compatibility layer currently does not cover biome aliases, dynamic registries (structures / features), or chunk/NBT data rewriting. It also does not support vanilla 1.20.1 saves.
• Windmoor Leaves' old IDs (windmoor_leaves_0/1/2) were not added to the alias table. In old saves, all three blocks will lose their mapping.
• The new Wind Journey noise setting and 5 structure NBTs are binary changes — in-game verification is required.
