Sweet Boreal
by To0pa
Sweet Boreal, a Forge mod for 1.18.2, adds Canadian boreal biomes with maple trees, moose, lumberjacks and sugar shacks to the world.
What it does
Sweet Boreal generates new biomes in the overworld: boreal forests, frost areas and maple groves. Maple trees grow in these biomes, and their sap can be collected and processed into syrup over a wood fire. Players can explore mountains and forests themed on the Canadian landscape, and the mod's content is meant to be found while travelling through these regions.
The mod also populates the new biomes with living creatures and settlers. Moose can be found and tamed with a maple leaf, and players can ride them. Lumberjacks live in tents and sugar shacks, and they are friendly toward players, though they will chase a player who has provoked them by throwing tree trunks. Sugar shacks can be looted for supplies and recipes.
Sweet Boreal runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.18.2, and the 1.0.0 build dates from 2023-06-07 on the beta channel. The code is released under the Creative Commons Attribution No Derivatives 4.0 license, which means the mod is not open source.
Key features
Maple groves
Maple trees generate in their own biome and are the source of the sap used for syrup.
Maple syrup crafting
Maple sap is collected and heated over a wood fire for about 10 minutes, a slow process that yields maple syrup.
Moose riding
Moose can be tamed with a maple leaf and ridden, giving players a mount suited to boreal terrain.
Lumberjack encounters
Friendly lumberjacks live in tents and sugar shacks, and they throw tree trunks at players who provoke them.
Campfire cooking pot
A campfire pot lets players cook ingredients, and the mod's recipes are listed in the recipe book.
