What's new?

As with the other mods provided by this team, this mod will cease active development as of the end of March 2022. If another wants to pick this up, they are more than welcome too.

From The Depths has a new home for discussion on our discord server! Feel free to drop on in and discuss some of the cool encounters you've created, or new functionality you'd like to see added! https://discord.gg/qpkPnfays5

The 1.3.0.0 version came out today (10/09/2021). This version a large expansion on the functionality provided to mod-pack developers in terms of restrictions they can set for the totems so they can only be used under those restrictions. Files from 1.2.0 will work with slight modification to the recipe. Recipes which provide the totem must have their result changed to "from_the_depths:totem_|SPAWN KEY|". Example: "from_the_depths:totem_custom_creeper"

The 1.2.0.0 version came out today (7/5/2020). This version is a large re-write of the mod but adds a bunch more configuration for Mod Pack Developers!

When updating to this version please take care to review the "Pages" section of this project page to see all of the new configuration options available and the new layout of the files.

The old files will not work and there will be some manual update involved.

Although there will be some additional up-front work; I believe these changes allow Mod Packs to deliver better and more dynamic fights to their players.

General Summary

You can summon any monster in the game as long as you set up the files necessary for it. You can even summon monsters from other mods as long as the mod has been loaded.

If you want to set this up yourself, details for the files can be found on the Pages tab.

By default, this mod does nothing but add the block and items to the game. The Mod Pack Developer has to create the files necessary for creating the recipes for the Totem of Summoning.

Sample Fights for examples can be found here: Sample Fights


Blocks:

Altar of Summoning:

This is the main block used in this mod. It is used in conjunction with the Totem of Summoning to create monsters in the world.

The main monster summoned will appear after four lightning strikes and appear on the 5th. Additional monsters (adds) can be summoned at regular intervals after the boss is summoned too!
