🦕 Welcome to New Dawn! 🌅

Life, uh, finds a way... and so does creativity!

New Dawn is a dinosaur-themed building modpack created for the New Dawn SMP community on Twitch by StewmansKitchen. Whether you're recreating iconic scenes from Jurassic Park, building the fantastical cities of Dinotopia, or bringing the Great Valley from Land Before Time to life in Minecraft, this pack gives you all the tools to make your prehistoric dreams a reality!

What Makes New Dawn Special?

🦖 Bring Back the Dinosaurs

At the heart of New Dawn is Fossils and Archeology: Revival - excavate ancient bones, revive long-extinct creatures, and build habitats for your prehistoric friends. From the mighty T-Rex to the gentle Brachiosaurus, the Mesozoic era is yours to explore!

🏗️ Build Without Limits

We've packed in tons of decoration and building mods (Macaw's collection, Chipped, Supplementaries, and more!) so you have the creative freedom to construct everything from massive dinosaur enclosures to detailed visitor centers. Want to build that iconic Jurassic Park gate? We've got you covered!

⚡ Quality of Life = More Fun

Nobody wants to spend hours grinding for materials when you could be building or hanging out with friends. That's why we've included mods like Cagerium for easy mob farms, Botany Pots for automated crop production, and tools like the Construction Wand to speed up those big builds. More time creating, less time mining!

🐾 It's Not Just Dinosaurs

The world feels alive with Critters and Companions and Faunify adding adorable ambient creatures that make exploring a joy. Little birds, butterflies, and friendly critters populate the landscape - perfect companions for your smaller dino friends!

🌍 A World Worth Exploring

Terralith transforms terrain generation into something spectacular, giving you beautiful landscapes to build your prehistoric paradise. From rolling plains perfect for Triceratops herds to dense jungles hiding your next fossil site, every biome is an opportunity.

Made for Friends, Built for Fun

New Dawn SMP was created for friends from Twitch to hang out, collaborate, and create together. Some of us are building massive theme park recreations, others are crafting cozy dino sanctuaries, and some are just vibing and going with the flow - and that's exactly how we like it! There's no "right" way to play New Dawn.
