Rota Questbook

Rota Questbook is a quest, exploration, and progression mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge), created by Leandro (Rota Mods).

The goal of this mod is to move away from boring gray menus and confusing floating node lines, bringing an authentic handcrafted adventure journal right into your hands: featuring worn leather, aged double-page parchment, and hand-drawn details. In addition to quests, the mod includes a full 3D Bestiary, a spyglass creature study mechanic, an in-game visual quest editor, and built-in multi-language support.

Key Features

• Adventure Book Visuals (Atlas Theme): A custom pixel-art interface shaped like an open vintage journal with leather binding, metal corner brackets, and warm parchment pages. If you prefer the classic Minecraft style, you can switch to the Vanilla theme at any time.
• Quick-Access Side Tabs: Handy bookmarks along the sides of the book to jump straight between your quests, chapters, the Bestiary, favorites, and settings.
• Interactive 3D Bestiary: View monsters and animals in real-time 3D right on the page. Rotate creatures with your mouse, check their animations, health, attack damage, armor, behavior, and the items they drop when defeated.
• Creature Study with the Spyglass (Key C): No need to put the spyglass in your main hand. Simply press C whenever you have a spyglass in your inventory to zoom in. Keep a creature in your sights for a few seconds to study its behavior and unlock its entry in the Bestiary.
• On-Screen Information (HUD): While observing or focusing on a creature, useful stats (such as health, distance, and name) are displayed smoothly on your screen, fully integrated with Rota Core's HUD system.
• In-Game Visual Quest Editor: You don't need to write code or mess with external files to create quests. Open the in-game editor menu to build chapters, quests, tasks, and rewards, then export everything ready as a datapack.
• Smooth Page Turning: Flip pages seamlessly from quest to quest and chapter to chapter without having to constantly close and reopen menus.
• Quick Search Bar: Find any quest in seconds by searching for its title, description, required items, or rewards.
• Spoiler Protection: Hide names, icons, or rewards on locked quests behind stamped ink locks to keep the surprises intact until you complete the prerequisites.
• Compatible with Vanilla & Mod Advancements: Automatically gathers and organizes achievements from vanilla Minecraft and installed companion mods into clean chapters.
• Multi-Language Support: Comes fully translated out of the box in English, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, and German.

Controls & Shortcuts

• L: Open the Questbook (replaces the default Minecraft Advancements screen).
• C: Quickly use the spyglass from anywhere in your inventory to observe creatures and the world.
• O: Open the Rota Core Hub to access mod settings and the quest editor.
