ElvisCraft
by Elviska
ElvisCraft adds ores, bosses, mobs and structures to the Overworld, Nether and End, for players who want new challenges in existing worlds.
What it does
Ore generation covers the Overworld, the Nether and the End. Lead, aluminium and magnesium are among the new ores, and eight new gems are used to craft utility items. Ores and mob drops feed the crafting of boss crystals and armor, so the progression runs from mining to combat.
Four new bosses are added: a Zombie King, a Slime Boss, Chaos Spawn and a Mummy. Each is summoned with a special crystal crafted from the new ores and mob drops. New zombie, spider and slime types also appear among the mobs, and crystals start PvE challenges. Achievements guide players through how to summon bosses and craft items.
ElvisCraft is a Forge mod for 1.17.1 only, with the 1.0 build as the latest file, published on 2023-09-25 under the All rights reserved license. It is not open source. The server and every player need the mod installed. Crafting help from a mod such as Too Many Items can show recipes for the new items.
