Minecraft Millénaire Mod

Current version: 1.7.2

Provide feedback to me on Millénaire: Google Survey

Millénaire is a single-player mod for Minecraft. It aims to fill the
"emptyness" of single-player worlds by adding NPC villages to it, with
loose 11th-century Norman, North Indian and Mayans themes and additional
cultures planned.

Villages are populated with men, women and children of various kinds,
who perform tasks such as trading with the player, expending current
buildings or improving existing ones, cultivating crops such as wheat in
Norman villages and rice in Indian ones, crafting tools and powerful
amulets, etc. As the village expends, the number of villagers increases
as couples have children who grow up into new adults.

Help villages grow by trading with them and be rewarded with unique
items such as Normand and Indian food or statues and tapestries to
decorate your house with. And if they start liking you enough, they
might even build you a house of your own.

Millénaire is available in the following languages:
French, English, German, Russian, Polish, Spanish, Czech, Swedish,
Dutch, Portuguese and Slovenian (more coming!)

- This release is experimental. Due to the big reworks of many core
areas, bugs are likely. I recommend backing up your old world before
upgrading.
- "Generic NPCs": NPCs are now defined in text files, similarly to
village types. This big overhaul of Millénaire has the following
impacts:
* New "official" cultures will be much easier to add
* Custom cultures by players can now include custom NPCs (though limited to actions already coded)
* Somewhat better performance, as Minecraft now keeps track of one mob type instead of a dozen per culture
* NPCs from old saves will disappear and be recreated the first time the world is loaded in 1.4
- Tradable goods, shops and prices are now all defined in text files for easier modding
- Villages and villagers' names are now loaded from text files, so they can be customised for new cultures
- Reorganised millenaire-custom to allow for entire cultures to be defined there
- Fixed bug where children would instantly swap in and out of playing
- Many fixes and tweaks

Type of villagers

There are currently seven types of villagers:
- Farmers, who grow crops in the fields around their house, and bring the resulting wheat back to their house chest.
- Lumbermen, who chop trees, plant new trees with saplings they get from
destroying leaves, and gather cider apples from leaves as well. They
put the wood and apples they gather in their house chests.
- Wives, who have the most complex work: taking resources from their
husbands' work to the various public buildings, making bread from wheat,
making cider from cider apples, trading with the player and building
new constructions.
- Children, born at night, and which grow up to become adults when bread is available and new houses are built.
- Guards that patrol the village
- Priests that visit the church (and the tavern...)
- Smiths, which makes Norman tools in the forge

Expansion of the village

The main "aim" of the villagers is to improve their village. There are
six initial villagers, but their number will grow as they have children
and build new houses. They can also build new types of buildings and
improve existing ones. For this they need building materials: wood,
cobblestone, glass and stone. The first they can get themselves, the
rest only through trade with the player. A complete village currently
includes a bakery, a tavern, a church, fountains, a presbytery, a guard
tower and an (ugly) castle, plus custom buildings if advanced.


Advanced village, with almost all the default buildings as of 0.4.5

Trade with the player

There are three locations at which the player can trade with the
villagers: their Town Hall, the bakery and the tavern (when built):
- Town Hall (present at start): you can sell wood, stone, cobblestone,
iron and glass (plus extra blocks at time). Payment made in deniers, a
special item. You can also buy wood there, and the "village wand".
- Bakery (when built, requires only wood, so normally they can do it without help): buy bread.
- Tavern (when built, requires glass, so only after you've sold enough
to the villagers): buy cider and in upgrade taverns calva. Cider and
calva can be used multiple times and give back health.

To trade, go to one of the locations in question and stand near the
chests. If no woman is around one will arrive shortly. Right-click on
her to bring up the trade screen.

Hold the left shift key while clicking on a trade good in the trade
screen to trade 8 by 8 or the left control key to trade 64 by 64.

Finding a village

Since 0.1.4, the easiest way to find a village is to press the V key. If
a village is nearby, it will display its name, the distance to it and
the general direction. Most new worlds should have villages near the
spawn point. If you can't find one at all, check in the world with the
seed b. If there are none there, there is an issue with the mod install.

Creating a new village: the Village Wand

With enough deniers, you can buy a "village wand" from the Town Hall of a
village. When used on a obsidian block, it will attempt to generate a
new village around the block. Warning: using a village wand is
dangerous, as the village can end up being built on top of you, killing
you if the ground level goes up. Don't use it you can't afford a
respawn...

Help Wanted

- There is a lot of content to fill up in the Millénaire Wiki, feel free to help: http://millenaire.org/wiki/
- Female and children sounds
- It would be very useful if people who have been playing for a while
could post detailed accounts of how they play Millénaire, what they
like/don't like, what their goals are when playing, etc. I need more
comprehensive feedback, not just small reactions to individual features.
- People with experience in working with MediaWiki
(particularly setting up extensions ect.) would be very useful, PM me if
that is your case

Making new cultures

Since Millénaire 1.4, the bulk of a new culture can be made without code
(not just buildings and village types like before, but new NPCs as
well). As such I'm interested in player-made cultures to integrate in
the main game, provided they fit the general theme of Millénaire of
"real" cultures from around the 11th century. Players interested in
producing one for Millénaire should PM-me about it. If we agree on the
idea, I'll provide support in the form of help on how to mod Millénaire
and in the form of whatever new code might be needed (for new items,
blocks or good productions), though likely not with the buildings and
NPCs themselves. I reserve the right to change anything I might not like
in a culture I'm shipping with the mod itself, but in practice I intend
to leave as much of a free hand as possible to culture
designers.Contribution welcome, it helps make Millénaire a rich game!
