Welcome to the Journeyman's Expansion! A world where beautiful landscapes and frightening structures await! A world where there are worlds to explore within! A world where each adventure takes you one step closer to accomplishing greatness to be immortalized within it! (One that aims not to fry everything but a God PC)

I am BB9K and I present you with not a challenge, a quest, or a wish. But a vast world of experiences. Centered around expanding all dimensions and seamless integration of some of the best fabric mods into a forge modpack I have created and continue to work on a growing survival experience.

There are quests to guide you through the earlier steps of the game; and then after the world is yours!

For best results when generating your world to get the most out of the custom terrain use BetterX world type for the End and be sure to turn off the BetterX Nether world gen in the customization tab for world gen options. In the future this will be fixed to implement Better End biomes to default but due to technical issues and limited time this fix may take a while.

Planned Updates:

Currently learning how to use Incontrol to customize mob spawns. Once finished "The Nether Update (Part 2)" will be released integrating new spawns, updated loot pools, and biomes oh plenty!
"Macabre-Call of False Prophets" may be added in the future as an ultra endgame experience.
Still awaiting 1.20.1 version the "Schism" lycanites rewrite. I appreciate the hard work being done by both development crews an patiently await the polished finished product!

1.3.5 Reptilian Agendas has Dropped!

Reptilian Agendas is easily the biggest update this modpack has seen since it's 1.3.0 version dropped! Featuring the "FINAL" final boss battle tweaks, dragons, more nether biomes, an overhauled overworld and more. Infernal Altars were added to the Magma Land nether biome to make them more common! Cataclysm bosses were reworked for the last time! Ambient fog was introduced as well as more building blocks. Quark was also added. Above all else though is the full introduction of the Ice and Fire Dragons as well as Alex's Mobs featuring over 20 new quests in this update as well more opportunities for a tankier endgame build. Deep Aether was also updated introducing the new "Eye of the Storm" boss in a new Aether dungeon!

1.3.4 (Hilt and Blade)

Hilt and Blade reintroduces many lost features that were present in previous in versions! The most notably of which are the apotheosis gems; which have since been rebalanced to fit better with the ingame progression! Many of the bosses were once again rebalanced as well! In order to make progression follow closer to the outlined process in the quest book End Dust has been added to the Etchings Crafting recipe! Additionally the Black Ice Glaciers from Jaden's Nether Expansion have been added into the pack! With the beginnings of a shop added through Feed the Beast and valuable loot added to multiple structures questing will be easier than ever. Additionally the two known crashing bugs have been fixed and the Magnetic Caves will now work smoothly and Reskillable no longer causes crashing!

1.3.2 (Quest to Impress) has Dropped!

Introducing detailed quest lines to better guide ingame progression and providing extra loot the questing update is here. Additionally some much needed nerfs have been made to temperature debuffs, sea serpents, and a handful of cataclysm bosses!

1.3.1 The Nether Update has Dropped!

S

wiftFollowing the release of 1.3.0 version 1.3.1 has dropped! What is the 1.3.1 update you may ask? Well it is the Journeyman's Expansion Nether Overhaul! BetterX terrain is cool and all but it does not give the jaw dropping cliffs and extended height of incendium. In it better nether biomes are sadly overwritten by Regions Unexplored; leaving BetterX as the default and Regions Unexplored out of the most recent release. 1.3.1 intends to change that while completely overhauling the generation biome generation (As better nether does not work with default terrain generation) and mob spawns, with a few small tweaks added as well. The changes are as follows:

- Nether Fog Reduced

- BetterX terrain is no longer the forced default

- Better Nether biomes added to default world types

- Default world types use incendium to generate terrain

- Regions Unexplored Added

- Nether biomes, cinderscapes, better nether, and regions unexplored nether biomes all got custom generation parameters

- Wither was buffed

- Nethers Exoticism Added

- Connected glass textures added

- Custom mob spawning will be added in a Nether Update Part 2 when I have more coding experience!

Here are some pictures of what the new generation has in store:

First we have the Upside down forest. Currently set to be the safest of the nether biomes.

Here we have the soul plains; which will now generate along other cold or dry biomes. Cold biomes being Luminous grove and warped forest. Dry biomes being Quartz Flats and Blackstone Shales.

The bone reef will generate beside warm (Nether Jungle and Crimson Forest) and moderately wet (Crimson Forest and Flooded Deltas). The glistening meadow also had a low chance to spawn near this biome.

Th crimson forest will now generate beside warm (Nether Swampland and Ash Barrens) and wet (Bone reef and Warped Woods). Piglin Brutes will now spawn here naturally.

Be warned though; progressing is not always easy and leveling up before confronting more powerful mobs and realms is always in your best interest! So journey with caution and good luck!

Installation: I recommend that you install this modpack directly through the curseforge app:

https://www.curseforge.com/download/app

Through the curseforge app you can install the modpack and access it as its own individual profile in the app. Additionally any changes that you want to make to the modpack will be far easier through the modpack profile. :)

P.S. I run my memory at 7550 for this modpack. If it is not running well for you in the curseforge app click on "settings," the "minecraft." Scroll down the page until you see Java settings for allocated memory and switch it to the recommended value using the slider! If it still does not run removing some of the heavier mods may increase performance!
