About this project
What does Better Questing add?

Description:
I think it's time we had a bigger better questing mod to play with. For a long time now I've wanted to see mod packs do more with the tasks players would undertake on their journey's but as it is, there is only so much you can do with the existing questing mods out there. I took it upon myself to spend the last few months working on a replacement that was completely modular so that any mod developer could create expansions and themes that builds upon the existing mod allowing for pack developers to have limitless choice in what they can do with their stories and adventures.
Notes:
- This is the base mod and contains only the base functionality for expansion packs to build upon.
Please go download the Standard Expansion to get you started.
BQ1 (1.x.x), BQ2 (2.x.x) and BQ3 (3.x.x) expansions are NOT cross compatible! Always check your versions before updating
Optifine may break GUI rendering on some hardware, scrolling regions in particular. If you encounter such issues, try disabling "Fast Render" or other related options to see if that may fix it.
Features:
Lots of in game editors for customising all aspects of your quests
Automatic quest tree generation
Party management
Hardcore lives
Allows pack developers to fully localise their quests with resource packs
Customisable themes to better suit your pack (Requires expansions)
Expandable set of task and rewards types (Requires expansions)
Importers for other mods (Requires expansions)
Skyrim-like notifications when quests are complete
Full screen GUIs for less cramped editors
All quest data is saved in JSON for external editors to manipulate
MODULAR AND EXPANDABLE!
Want more?
If you or someone you know is a mod developer then feel free to download the developer version of the mod and create your own expansion packs. Want a quest task where the player has to do something specific with magic? Go for it! The possibilities are endless.
