Updates

8/7/23 - Wabi-Sabi Structures 1.2.0 / 2.0.0 has been released to the public! The biggest update yet, it marks our final update for 1.19 and our first update for 1.20. A long time in the making, it adds over a dozen new structures and makes numerous balance tweaks and changes in both versions. New crop patches, camps and forts, steamboats sunken in the mud, museums, floating helixes in the End, even remnants of ancient settlements in the Deep Dark. You name it!

In the 1.20 version, we have added a few additional structures, such as the Bamboo Firework Site, and updated several old ones with new content. Most notably, many of our structures now contain suspicious blocks where you can practice archaeology! You can dig up the rubble in the Concrete Mill Ruins, carefully extract the contents of Monster Eggs, find rare loot in the gravel around the Basalt Castle in the Nether, and more.

Wabi-Sabi Structures adds a plethora of new structures that generate throughout your Minecraft world, all designed with the Japanese philosophy of "Wabi-Sabi" in mind - embracing imperfection while still being aesthetically interesting.

Our structures uniquely complement Minecraft's generation with little extra spices. Expect anything from patches of natural crops, to various cozy cabins, degraded stables, dangerous towers, ominous monoliths, underground eggs of mysterious creatures, and more. Our aim is to provide newfound excitement in exploring new terrain, in a way that allows each world, biome, and dimension to have enhanced variety.

In addition, many of our structures utilize mechanics present in vanilla Minecraft in order to showcase these features to players or alleviate issues in the base game - a tower in the Forest that teaches lighting and extinguishing Campfires, factory ruins in the Nether with a Basalt generator, an orchard in the End featuring different Note Block instruments, to name just a few. The loot found in certain structures might also include items that cannot be obtained otherwise in survival Minecraft, but in a way that is not game-breaking.

Features

Currently, Wabi-Sabi Structures contains 58 new structures, including:

51 new structures in the Overworld
6 new structures in the Nether
1 new structure in the End
Variants, loot, and block randomization for many structures to increase variability in generation

The mod will work alongside other mods that add new biomes, but currently our new structures will not spawn in the modded biomes. We plan to add full support for more popular biome mods in the future.
