FairyFactionsRevived

by HeyImAmethyst

FairyFactionsRevived brings fairy factions into Minecraft as a port of the earlier Fairy Factions mod, with fairies that work, breed and tend the land.

FabricForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.18.2 – 1.20.1

What it does

Fairies in the mod gather crops, cut trees and collect drops from modded blocks once a data pack tells them which items and crops to pick up. Fairies also take damage in dark places, can fall ill with Withering Disease, and are healed by a glistening melon carried into an area the sun or moon can reach. Fairies need more light than they get in many caves and shelters, which is why they are sent out under open sky.

The mod is a port of the original Fairy Factions by KodaichiZero, reworked from earlier community ports. It needs Architectury API on both Fabric and Forge. Its files run on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files cover 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.3, 1.19.4, 1.20 and 1.20.1, and the latest file for both loaders is 1.20.1-1.7.1 for 1.20.1. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Fairy farming

    Fairies harvest crops and replant them, and modded crops need a data pack tag before fairies will pick up their drops.

  2. Tree cutting

    Fairies cut down trees, including modded ones, though some wood at the base can be left behind.

  3. Withering Disease

    Fairies can catch Withering Disease, which a glistening melon heals when it is carried into open light.

  4. Modded sheep and animals

    Fairies can shear sheep and breed animals, with modded animals still under testing at the time of writing.

Questions

Does FairyFactionsRevived need Architectury API?

Yes. Architectury API is required on both Fabric and Forge, so install it next to the mod.

Do both the server and players need the mod?

Yes. The server and every player need the mod installed.

Which versions does the mod support?

Files cover 1.18.2 – 1.20.1, with the latest file for Fabric and Forge being 1.20.1-1.7.1 for 1.20.1.

Why won't fairies pick up some modded crops?

Fairies only collect drops from items listed in a data pack tag, so modded crops and seeds need a custom tag added.
