QuestBook

QuestBook is a quest management mod for Hytale inspired by FTB Quests and Better Questing from Minecraft. Create custom quest lines to guide players through progression, tutorials, or adventures.

Features

• Quest Book UI - Full-screen interface for browsing quests organized into chapters
• Quest Tracker HUD - Persistent on-screen display showing current quest progress (press Q with book in hand to toggle)
• MultipleHUD Compatible - Works alongside the MultipleHUD mod without conflicts
• Multiple Task Types - Crafting, killing, mining, item collection, and location discovery
• Wildcard Patterns - Use * wildcards for flexible matching (e.g., Ore_* matches any ore)
• JSON Configuration - Define quests in simple JSON files for easy customization

Creating Your Own Quests

Quest File Location

Quest files are stored in your Hytale save folder:

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Hytale/UserData/Saves/Modding/plugins/QuestBook/quests/

Windows: %APPDATA%/Hytale/UserData/Saves/Modding/plugins/QuestBook/quests/

Edit the included vanilla_quests.json or create your own .json files. Use /questadmin reload to apply changes without restarting.
