Stellarity

No shaders so that you can see it clearer.

A total of 23 new biomes has been added, including 4 rehauled vanilla end biomes (technically only two of them since the other two serve no purpose in vanilla).

Biomes in Stellarity can be divided into 4 categories:

• Fields - open and mostly covered with grass.
• Barrens - usually hilly and desolate, featuring a low variety of blocks in their generation.
• Forests - well, it's a forest... really not much to say here.
• Frozen - sub-variants of existing biomes, featuring a sad white color palette, or in other words just frozen.

The screenshot above shows 3 biomes: in the front are Crystal Crags (barrens), on the right right is The Nest (also barrens), behind them there are End Midlands (fields), in the center there are Ender Wastes (barrens) and far back there are End Wilds (fields). Look into the image gallery for more biome showcases.

Islands are also no longer bound to one Y level, meaning that the terrain shape has a huge variety of shapes.

Right after defeating the Ender Dragon, the Altar of The Accursed awakens. It is a powerful crafting station used to craft late-game gear added by Stellarity. It doesn't have a GUI and is used by simply tossing the right amount of ingredients on top of it. There is no JEI support for the recipes yet, but you can refer to the wiki for most recipes.

I don't actually know how many items Stellarity introduces, I didn't count them, but there are at least 40 different new items for you to find and have fun with. This number includes new potion variants, food items, weapons and even 4 new armor sets with their own effects and set bonuses.

I tried to balance them both in between vanilla standards as well as making them meaningful in heavily modded scenarios where there would be plenty of bosses to defeat.

If the weapon abilities don't feel vanilla, that's because they aren't supposed to - most of them were inspired by games like Terraria, meaning that they don't follow the one-dimensional design MC weapons have, that being just click and damage.

Stellarity isn't just all about world generation and gear - it also adds many mechanics to The End unique in their own ways.

Shown above is what I like to call Cauldron crafting - tossing a bottle of Dragon's Breath into a Water cauldron dilutes it and allows for crafting of items via tossing them into the Cauldron. There are more than a dozen of recipes for it, most of them revolving around new food items or potions that combine effects.

Those recipes aren't in the recipe book, and JEI doesn't work for them, but for now you can view everything here.

Stellarity also adds Void Fishing! Cast your Fishing Rod anywhere into the air below you in The End (but not directly into The Void - no fish dare to swim that low) and wait until something bites your hook! Almost every End biome has its own loot table with a variety of items you can catch in the process, including (but not limited to!) a few new types of fish.

Other smaller mechanics which aren't really that notable:

Endermen drop Chorus Fruit in the Overworld in place of Ender Pearls. I honestly don't remember why I changed it.

Apart from Endermen, The End also features a new list of mobs that can spawn in their Voided variants. They are stronger than then regular counterparts, posing a greater threat to unprepared explorers.

The Ender Dragon fight has been reworked entirely, making it feel more like an actual bossfight while trying to stay true to its vanilla feel. It has more health and some native armor points, meaning it takes reduced damage. Crystals have also been reworked - Dragon is invulnerable for as long as at least one exists and is no longer healed by them. It also got a few new attacks to spice up the difficulty. When brought down to 1 HP, Dragon lands on the exit portal and waits for the player to deliver the final blow. Was it necessary to add that? Nope, but it sure is climactic.

Looking for a challenge? Head to The Hallow and search for the Chapel of Light. You can summon the Empress of Light there...

And that's where I am going to cut this part. Please don't fight this boss. It's due to a rework for more than a year now. It's bad. But I promise it's going to be amazing once I finally get to reworking her. And yes, she was heavily inspired by Terraria. In case it wasn't obvious enough.

Strongholds have been redesigned completely. The walls of this fortress are home to the Illagers who guard the End Portals.

They are about 5x larger and feature huge amounts of the aforementioned Illagers who can also drop a few new items that might help you while fighting the Ender Dragon.

End Cities have been redesigned from ground up in order to increase their difficulty and reinforce their position of endgame structures. Inspired by Trial Chambers, they are filled with Trial Spawners which spawn upgraded versions of the Overworld mobs and drop keys used to open Vaults. Just in case the City Trials weren't difficult enough, almost every tower contains a protective End Crystal which prevents nearby players from both placing and breaking blocks.

Both large and functional structures as well as small ambient ones have also been scattered across The End to give it some more life, lore and personality. Because it badly needed those. Yes, that is a Village in The End. Yes, Villagers sell different things there.

• 🟢 Nullscape - you can download compatibility addon HERE. Available for 1.21+.

• 🔴 BetterEnd - causes a huge amount of of micro-biomes to generate scattered around the dimension. It also makes some small changes that break some of the workarounds I need to do in order to make this data pack work. For context, doing some of the stuff I'm doing is repeatedly hitting the game with a baseball bat and joining it with super glue.
• 🔴 YUNG's Better End Island - there is really no way to make these 2 projects compatible since they both handle the main island changes in different ways. Compatibility is planned for 1.21.4 and onwards.
• 🔴 Any mod/datapack which grants players all recipes upon joining the world (unless you can disable that feature specifically).

• 🟡 Quark - make sure to disable unlocking all recipes in the config.
• 🟡 Enlightend - I've had reports that Stellarity's biome take priority over Englithend's, making the latter unable to generate. You can fix it by manually editing Stellarity's the_end.json file. Just simply replace some biomes (preferably ones that look similar to the one you want to replace them with!) with Enligthend's biomes and you should be good to go. It might take a few attempts to get it perfectly and not create micro-biomes.
• 🟡 End's Phantasm - same problem as Enligthend which can be fixed the same way.
• 🟡 JEI - like I stated, Stellarity is only a datapack packaged as a mod, so its items will not show up in JEI's recipe and/or loot browser.
• 🟡 Spellbound Weapons - Endlight Bow and End Excalibur will not generate in End City chests. I am thinking of a way to make them do so as intended.
• 🟡 Lithium Known to cause issues with item and structure markers.

• 🟣 CIT Resewn - applies some additional textures to things like Elytra variants and fixes the issue where new armor sets break with shaders. Both of these are fixed in 1.21.4+.
• 🟣 Fabric Skybixes - adds a new skybox everywhere in The End.
• 🟣 Entity Texture Features - gives all new end mob variants their own textures.
