Lunara Colonies
by AshenRex
Lunara Colonies is a Forge and NeoForge mod that adds fantasy-style architecture and decoration for MineColonies colonies, with tier-based progression.
What it does
The mod is a catalog colonies style pack for MineColonies. Its buildings and decorations are meant to blend a fantasy atmosphere with the practical gameplay of MineColonies, so that each structure a colony builds is both attractive and functional. The visual style follows one unified identity, and the colony changes as it grows through its tiers.
Two other mods are named as companions in the author notes: Domum Ornamentum and the Solas shader pack, along with the Ashen x16 resource pack. Lunara Colonies runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge across 22 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.2, under All rights reserved and not open source.
Key features
Colony-style architecture
Buildings and decorations are styled for MineColonies colonies, with a consistent look across all structures.
Tier-based progression
The colony's appearance is tied to MineColonies progression, so later tiers look more developed than early ones.
Functional buildings
Structures are built to work as practical MineColonies buildings, not only as scenery.
Unified visual identity
Every block and building keeps to one fantasy style, so a colony reads as a single place.
