## 1.3.0 — Survival Horror Rework A major rework focused on atmosphere, threatening encounters and a more consistent survival experience. Minecraft remains on **1.20.1**. Forge has been updated from **47.4.0 to 47.4.20**. The installed mod inventory has been reduced from **235 to 158 archives**, excluding generated Connector caches: **23 additions, 100 removals and 65 updated or patched files**. ### Horror and survival - Replaced the original **The Anomaly** with **The Anomaly Rephased**. - Added **Distant Friends**, **Eyes in the Darkness**, **The One Who Watches** and **Nyf’s Spiders**. - Kept **From The Fog**, **The Man From The Fog**, **Better Cave Dweller**, **The Midnight Lurker**, **The Pale Hound** and **Slenderman: The Revival**. - Set The Knocker to its **rare** spawning mode, independently of the selected difficulty. - Reduced The Midnight Lurker’s Overworld, Nether and gateway spawn settings. - Adjusted The Man From The Fog to spawn less frequently and only at night, disabled its lightning effects and slowed its block breaking. - Added a default Cave Dweller configuration with a **5–10 minute spawn timer** and a possible **17-minute additional cooldown**. - Added block protection rules for supported horror entities. The Pale Hound can still break fragile materials, including glass, wooden building blocks, doors and leaves. - Disabled From The Fog’s base-burning and torch-breaking events through pack-specific overrides. - Added a starter kit containing **five cooked beef** for a player’s first arrival. ### World generation and exploration - Replaced **Terralith** with **Biomas Vanilla Renovados** for a world closer to vanilla Minecraft. - Updated **Tectonic** and added **YUNG’s Better Caves**. - Kept YUNG’s Better Dungeons, Better Mineshafts and Better Strongholds. - Removed many additional structure packs, biome additions, bosses and equipment mods to reduce competing content. - Added **Enhanced Celestials 2: Core** and **Default Lunar Events**. - Configured Blood Moons with a minimum interval of **8 nights** and a **1.5× monster spawning multiplier**. - Configured Super Blood Moons with a minimum interval of **32 nights**, a full-moon requirement and a **2× monster spawning multiplier**. ### Immersion and presentation - Added **First-person Model** and **3D Skin Layers**. - Added **Panda’s Falling Trees** and **Spawn Animations**. - Added **Particle Rain**, with reduced particle density and a maximum of **700 particles**. - Disabled Particle Rain’s additional fog and dust-haze effects. - Added **Sound Physics Remastered** with adjusted reverberation settings. - Added **Entity Model Features** and **Entity Texture Features**. - Adjusted Better Animations Collection’s entity exclusions to avoid conflicts with custom entity models. - Reworked the main menu, title, loading screens and pause menu. - Updated Discord Rich Presence through CraftPresence. - Reworked BetterF3 with clearer colours, coloured coordinates, a separate days-played line, white FPS text and CPU/GPU information. ### Music - Added the **Inside the Darkness Ambient Music** resource pack. - Replaced vanilla background music with **eight dark ambient tracks**, using Minecraft’s normal playback timing and silent intervals. - Preserved gameplay sounds, creatures, footsteps, weather effects and music discs. - Added a separate FancyMenu soundtrack using **The Distant Sun — Scott Buckley**. Included ambient tracks: - Horror Atmosphere / Post Apocalyptic Wastelands - Ancient Caverns - EmptyCity - Factory Ambiance - Searching - Dark Ambient Drone - Dark Ambient Loop 13 - Dark Ambiance ### Performance and compatibility - Disabled Entity Culling’s **tick culling** to address interrupted entity movement and delayed hit reactions. Rendering culling remains enabled. - Set the default simulation distance to **8 chunks**, render distance to **12 chunks** and FPS limit to **120**. - Disabled shaders by default; players can enable them in the video settings. - Changed Sodium Dynamic Lights from **REALTIME** to **FAST** mode. - Applied pack-specific fixes to **BetterF3**, **Dynamic FPS** and **Sodium Dynamic Lights**. - Added **Darkness Tweaks** and global datapacks for the starter kit, compatibility fixes and block protection. - Added a compatibility resource pack containing door-model, lantern-model, texture-atlas and sound-definition fixes. - Corrected an invalid From The Fog function. - Added **spark** for performance profiling. - Removed obsolete mod configurations, old key bindings, configuration backups and generated Connector files from the export. - Added a consolidated **Credits and Licenses PDF** containing the inventory and third-party notices. ### Resource packs and shaders **Added:** - Fast Better Grass - Dot Crosshair - Patrix 32× — optional - Inside the Darkness Ambient Music - Inside the Darkness Compatibility Fixes - Solas Shader **Updated:** - Motschen’s Better Leaves: **9.2 → 9.6** - No More Clouds: **0.1.3 → 0.1.10** - New Hearts: **1.3–1.9 archive → 1.9–1.20.1 archive** - BSL: **8.4.02.2 → 10.1.8** - Complementary Reimagined: **r5.4 → r5.9.3** **Removed:** - Just Fancy Torches - Environmental Water - Spryzeen’s Knight Armor - SE Vanilla Consistency - Chocapic13 V9.1 Extreme beta 5 - MakeUp Ultra Fast - Old shader settings files **Retained:** - Even Better Enchants - More Cave Sounds - Insanity Shader Patrix remains optional and disabled by default. It requires stronger hardware and should not be combined with Insanity Shader. ### Important compatibility notes - A new world is recommended because world generation has changed and many content mods have been removed. - Enhanced Celestials 2: Shader Support is not included in this release. Its shader-specific moon-colour integration requires the separate extension. - Shaders remain optional and are disabled by default. <details> <summary><strong>All added mods and libraries</strong></summary> -
