About this project

What does Regions & POI Names add?

RNPOIN (Regions & POI Names)

Last Update:

Version: 0.1.0 – Initial Release
Date: 2026-01-13
Highlights: First public release; Procedural region naming system; HUD overlay added; Configurable name dictionaries.
Status: Beta

RNPOIN (Regions & POI Names) is an immersive exploration mod that gives your world a true RPG feel. Drawing inspiration from games like Breath of the Wild or Skyrim, it procedurally generates and displays majestic names for the regions you traverse based on their biome and location.

Features

Biome Awareness: Names are context-aware. Expect "Whispering Woods" in forests and "Scorched Wastes" in deserts.
Immersive HUD: A clean, fading title overlay appears when entering a new region.
Deterministic: Names are tied to the world seed and coordinates. "The Iron Peaks" will always be "The Iron Peaks" for everyone at that location.
Fully Configurable: Customize the adjectives, nouns, and prefixes via rnpoin_names.json to fit your modpack's theme.

Configuration

The mod generates a config file at config/rnpoin_names.json. You can easily add your own words!

{
  "stability_ticks": 20,
  "adjectives": {
    "forest": ["Dark", "Ancient", "Misty"],

    "generic": ["Lands", "Territory"]
  }
