About this project
What does Philips Ruins add?

Philip’s Ruins is a Minecraft ruins generator mod for Forge and Fabric, and it supports the latest Minecraft versions to date. The mod adds over 190 different types of ruin variants to the game, each with their own unique custom loot tables. This includes some hidden bosses that you can discover while exploring the lost remnants of ruins. The mod aims to add ancient ruins similar to what you see in real life by introducing lore to Minecraft, thereby enhancing gameplay functionality.
Two interesting features of this mod are:
- Most loot will likely be buried underground or covered with stones from the ruins.
- Unlike other structure mods, Philip’s Ruins makes most of its structures look like actual ruins.
This is achieved by blending the ruin with the terrain instead of having a rigid drop-off at the end of a structure, which is common in most mods during rough terrain generation.
This approach makes the ruins you come across look like they were there before any other structures, like villages, came to pass. It gives a vintage, ancient look to the current ruins, maintaining the structure along with terrain erosion.
