Spyridon: Odyssey [v2]

Version 0.2.9-beta – FROSTFIRE UPDATE

HugeClown provides the following insights regarding this update:

"Huzzah! A Man of Quality! That's right, folks, we’ve got a lineup that’ll make your diamond pickaxes jealous. First up, we’re rolling out Amendments to give your world a fresh splash of decor—because who doesn’t love a bit of fancy flair in their blocky life? Oh, and shoutout to the Blossom Blade! Imagine you’re Arthur pulling the sword from the stone, except it’s in a serene Cherry Blossom biome, and you don’t need Merlin, just some serious arm strength. You pull it out, you keep it. Simple as that. And yes, it’s got some enchanted magic you can’t get anywhere else. YouTube Rewind, eat your heart out!

Now, I hear ya—'But HugeClown, what’s new with the villagers?' Well, listen up, kiddos! Thanks to Chef’s Delight, you’ve got not one but TWO new villager professions: Chef and Cook! Just pop down a skillet or cooking pot, and voila! Your village is now a five-star restaurant (with a menu mostly consisting of bread and pork chops, but hey, it’s a start).

Plus, we swapped out Embeddium for Xenon, bringing in better optimizations so your gameplay will be smoother than a Creeper sneaking up on you at night. Oh, and BadOptimizations—we’re looking at you, pal, helping make sure your game doesn’t act like a Baby Boomer trying to use Snapchat.

And what’s a HugeClown update without a quick shout to HugeSmoke? That dude is STILL out here, chilling in his Sawmill, turning logs into planks like it’s nobody’s business. Keep it up, champ!"

BETA DISCLAIMER

This version is still in beta testing, meaning some features or configurations might not work as intended and could cause issues, especially in the End dimension. We’re focusing on refining the Overworld and Nether first, with the End to follow. Please back up your worlds regularly and proceed with caution.

EXTRA INFO

We’re aware of some texture issues, but a fix is on the way, scheduled to roll out with 0.3.0-beta. We also updated our modpack home page to reflect our new roadmap and memory specs. Heads up: some images might be a bit blurry due to Imgur upload quirks. And don’t forget—finish up that Halloween 2024 quest before it vanishes like a phantom after October!
