Villages

Villages are now 1.14's villages: plains, desert, savanna, taiga, and snowy tundra. You will find farms, animal pens, lamp posts, a meeting point with its bell, an iron golem, unemployed villagers waiting for work and, now and then, an abandoned zombie village.

Workstations spawn naturally inside village structures. Villages are built from modern blocks added into this mod. Cats can be found in villages.

Mods that add village buildings, like Waystones and RLCraft, add them to 1.14 villages too.

Villagers

Villagers take a job from a nearby workstation and go to work every day. They sell 1.14's trades, level up from Novice to Master, and restock twice a day at their workstation.

Prices climb on trades you use a lot and drift back down when you leave them alone. Villagers remember how you treat them and gossip about it. Curing a zombie villager gives the biggest discount, and the cured villager keeps its old trades.

At dusk they head home to their beds. They breed when they have food and a free bed, so modern breeders work. A scared villager runs and calls an iron golem.

Every workstation does its 1.14 job. The fletching table cuts wood the way the stonecutter cuts stone, and the smithing table upgrades diamond gear to netherite when a mod adds netherite.

Breaking and replacing a librarian's lectern rerolls its books, and each roll shows up in chat. Hover over the message to turn it off.

Raids

Carry Bad Omen into a village and a raid starts. Waves of pillagers, vindicators, evokers, witches and ravagers come at the village while the villagers hide in their houses. Win and you are the Hero of the Village, with cheaper trades and gifts from the villagers.

Pillager patrols roam the world from the fifth day, and pillager outposts generate with their watchtowers and caged golems. The crossbow is in too, with its enchantments.

Everything else

The wandering trader shows up now and then with two llamas and leaves after 40 minutes.

Cats come in eleven coats. Tame one with raw fish and it will bring you gifts in the morning.

Foxes live in taigas. They sleep through the day and hunt at night, carrying whatever they find in their mouths. Sweet berry bushes grow there too, so watch out for the thorns.

Bamboo jungles are home to pandas, each with its own personality. Bamboo makes scaffolding you can climb.

The campfire cooks food without fuel. Put a hay bale under it for a signal fire.

You also get the new flowers and dyes, suspicious stew, brown mooshrooms, leather horse armor, the Globe banner pattern, every new slab, stair and wall, smooth stone, signs in every wood, stripped logs, and blue ice.

Vanilla's textures switch to the 1.14 look, and you can turn that off.

Every feature can be turned off in Backport Core's settings screen, under Mod Options. Each setting has a plain name and a one-line description, and search finds any of them.

Compatibility

Works with Open Terrain Generator (RLCraft Dregora), Biomes O' Plenty, Realistic Terrain Generation, Antique Atlas, JEI Villagers, TradeStages Legacy, Scape and Run: Parasites, and Hunter Illager.

With Update Aquatic Backport installed, the wandering trader sells sea pickles.

Using Village Names? Set Activate New Village Generator to false in config/VillageNames4/newvillages/village_gen.cfg to get 1.14 villages.

Commands

/locate structure #minecraft:village finds the nearest village, or name one type like minecraft:village_desert.

/village shows the beds around you and who has claimed them.

/rollmessages off stops the librarian roll messages for you, and on brings them back.

/raid start starts a raid on the village you're in, and /wanderingtrader spawn brings the trader to you. Both are for operators.

Requirements

Minecraft 1.12.2 with Forge 14.23.5.2847 or newer, and Backport Core 1.1.0 or newer. The CurseForge app installs Backport Core and Fluidlogged API with it.

Delete the old version of this mod before updating.

Also by me: Enchantment Recipes, which lets you craft enchanted books from mod materials, and Villager Tomes, which lets you teach a librarian the books you find.
