Rivencraft Wiki
Rivencraft brings Mystcraft-inspired books, symbols, and player-authored Ages to Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge. A separate, incomplete Minecraft 26.3 beta port is also available. This wiki's gameplay guides describe the 1.21.1 release, not the beta. See Installation for both tracks. The source repository contains the technical documentation and issue tracker.
Latest experimental port: 26.3 beta 1.0.1.98-beta.1. Beta 1.0.1.98-beta.1 adds seeded completion for omitted terrain and biome controllers, structure-aware missing biome pools, full Native Cave pools distributed in Tiny regions, and stacking Accelerated random block ticks. Earlier celestial, eclipse, feature and structure support remains included. Settings persist per Age. Accelerated currently affects crops and other random-ticking blocks; machine acceleration is deferred for both versions under issue #112. Full writing recovery, discovery/stations, instability, crystal portals, optional-integration parity and random-page eligibility config remain unfinished. Modded biome surface-rule integration is also pending. Catalog protocol is 10: use matching client/server builds. Back up worlds: new populated Native Cave profiles cannot be read by earlier betas. Existing chunks are not rewritten.
