Doomlike Dungeons

Table of Contents

This mod is for those who want adventure, danger, and, uh, violence. Yeah, there are plenty of dungeons mods out there, but why not one one more? This was inspired by Oblige, a random level generator for Doom, Heretic, Hexen, and similar games, and attempt to put similar, Doomlike content into Minecraft. The goal is to create interesting, tactically challenging, and highly varied multi-room dungeons that are fun to explore and rewarding to conquer.

See Minecraft Forum page for more information: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/minecraft-mods/1293843-doomlike-dungeons

(There really isn't much in the way of new features I want to add to this now, but do hope to keep updating to new game versions. There may however be a sequel or more heavy-weight {meaning, mobs, blocks, etc.} mod coming out sometime, though, depending and how I manage my time concerning other idea and real life.)

Note that in Minecraft 1.12.2 you may get some "Cascading Worldgen" warnings. This is the results of intended behavior; its a design flaw but not actually a bug. There is no cascading chain reaction.

This really is almost certainly the final version of this mod -- even if I update to the next game version it will be with no new features (same mod version). Any further development, if any, will go into a sequel written from scratch to do somethings right that Doomlike Dungeons simply does wrong.

Thanks. Doomlike Dungeons is basically done, but I have ideas for a kind of sequel that might coexist with it.

Yes it does. Technically it doesn't even have to be on the client (like a plugin).

(This is one things that might be different in a sequel of heavy-weight counterpart, if such a thing ever exists.)

Hi,I'm Ansuz,the one who has problem on chinese input.
At same time while JAVA learning,I'm still trying find a way to bypass the problem of chinese and special symbols input,to tell the truth,I have no interest in programming,it just a need.
Now I found a way to bypass the problem,just use notepad++ change the coding format of nbt.cfg to ANSI,and just typing the special symbols or chinese normally as the string example,but don't use double quotation mark,cause that I don't find the way to add space in the string.
So I said it here just to get other people who want to input special symbols to know the way.

Now I don't need to learn programming,but bypassed problem,can concentrate on my modpack now,such a good ending.

In reply to AnsuzPantognestous:

Yes, I knew that would work. I guess its not obvious to everyone. Java handles the special characters. The quotation marks are completely optional; I add the ability to use quotation marks to make typing things with spaces easier. No one has to use quotation marks.

The way you are doing it is how I expected people to do it.

how rare are the "rare treasure chests"? the ones, where loot level 8 stuff generates? i think i remember from really long time ago that they only generate in the nether, is that right?

In reply to Flemmli97:

That depends on difficulty -- better loot is found with more / harder monsters, and higher difficulty give more / harder monsters (especially if you have modded mobs). Also, dungeons with more entrance have fewer treasure / boss rooms.

Basically, you only treasure chests in special destination rooms, where they sit over a spawner for a harder mob. That chance that it will have level 8 loot depends on how hard that mob is, but it is very rare unless you have hard or nightmare dungeons set in the config, and only common on nightmare with a spawner that produces actual bosses such as Withers.

Hey, it seems like you're fairly active here BlackJar72, so I thought I'd ask a question about the chests.cfg file.

I'm setting up my own loot tables, and I've noticed that your dungeons seem to generate random enchanted books in the chests. But, the chests.cfg doesn't seem to have any entries for :

loot, 1, minecraft:enchanted_book, 1, 1

Or anything similar. I would like to keep these enchanted books spawning (I think they are a nice feature), is it perhaps these entries that are causing it to generate the enchanted books?

loot, 2, minecraft:book, 1, 1

Thanks again, and the best to ya.

In reply to Teeto_Kaziim:

Yes, its those -- it basically see's a book and says, "OK, now act like an enchanting table" (except treasure enchants are allowed). It then converts the loot level into levels to enchant with.

I'm no sure if enchanting an enchanted book would work -- I didn't see it when I was adding that. Maybe later I could have it see enchanted book and then convert it to a regular book it could enchant? Not now though, I have several other things going and the current system works well enough.

No worries, knowing this is plenty perfect. I just didn't want to accidentally eradicate all enchanted books from my loot pools.

Thanks again for the help and information :D.

Currently the only way to do this is edit the chests file and add items.

ah ok, I just noticed I have another modpack with an altered chest config. would it be safe to just replace the one i have? the items or mods i don't have installed from the other pack would just get ignored I'm assuming? thanks

That is not safe, I don't have time to test it now, especially with newer version, but it might put invalid item into the chests, I'm not sure.

Actaully, most like the would just be less loot -- Minecraft is good to just delete thing it doesn't understand (instead of crashing) -- but not sure.

It probably won't crash.

The main thing about testing without new dungeons is that what is in the chests depends on what the config was when they generated.

Try /dldspawn somewhere (away from other thing) to test for sure.

ok thanks for the assist :) am i right in thinking that chest loot is determined from when the chest is spawned rather than the time you open it?

Yes -- its a fair old and simple system, the chests are placed with loot in them.
