What it does

The mod is a small datapack that places abandoned camp structures into worlds on older game versions. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack for server platforms. One version of the backport is based on the first structure revision, and a later one on the sixth. A 1.18.2 data folder is included for that older version, and the loot table format was changed to match the format used there.

Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Server owners who want the camps on a 1.18.2 world, or on any other version 1.18.2 – 26.2, install the build for their loader. Snapshot builds are published as well. The author notes that spears were removed and that copper tools and stone copper armor behave differently from the newer versions, and asks that any issue affecting older versions be reported on the GitHub issue tracker. The code is not open source, and the content is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license.

Key features

  1. Abandoned camp structures

    Places the abandoned camp structures into worlds that would otherwise not generate them.

  2. Datapack delivery

    Ships as a data pack, so it is added through the world's data folder rather than as Java code.

  3. Loot table format

    Loot tables were rewritten to match the format used by the older versions the backport targets.

  4. Removed spears and tool changes

    Spears are removed, and copper tools and stone copper armor behave differently from the newer versions.
