Totemic

We're excited to bring back a fresh version of Totemic for Minecraft 1.7.10!

This is a huge update that backports many of the features that have been added to Totemic over the last 10 years. There are new Ceremonies, Totem effects, mobs and other stuff. Notably, the progression system has been updated and matches the one in the newer Minecraft versions.

This is an early version which is still work in progress and might be unstable. Please report any crashes and other issues that you find to our issue tracker (make sure to mention the Minecraft and mod versions): https://github.com/TeamTotemic/Totemic/issues

Have fun and happy Ceremonies!

• The Totempedia entries in the Ceremonies category are now locked until the required music instruments are obtained. This should make it less overwhelming for newcomers, as only those Ceremonies will be displayed that are currently performable.
  • The Jingle Dress Totempedia entry will now unlock together with the Wind Chime entry.
  • In case you get erroneously locked Instrument or Ceremony entries after the update, they should unlock once you place the relevant Instruments in your inventory.
• Added the medicineBagBlacklist server config option, which allows specifying Totem Carvings that may not be used in Medicine Bags.
• Added a sound when opening, closing or setting the carving of a Medicine Bag.
• Fixed a visual glitch where the music bar in the Ceremony HUD could overflow.
• Added KubeJS integration (documentation pending).
  • It can be used mostly the same as in 1.21.1, but an important difference is that, due to a limitation of KubeJS in 1.20.1, you can't use KubeJS's StartupEvents.registry to register Totemic contents. Instead, use TotemicEvents.registerMusicInstruments, etc.

API changes: See 1.21.1-0.12.18.

• Added the medicineBagBlacklist server config option, which allows specifying Totem Carvings that may not be used in Medicine Bags.
• Added a sound when opening, closing or setting the carving of a Medicine Bag.
• Fixed Red Cedar Leaves not being harvestable with modded shears (they can now be harvested with any tool that has the "shears_dig" item ability).
• Fixed a visual glitch where the music bar in the Ceremony HUD could overflow.
• Expanded the KubeJS integration (still experimental):
  • New Music Instruments, Totem Carvings and Ceremonies can now be created via StartupEvents.registry, using the registry keys 'totemic:a_instrument', 'totemic:c_totem_carving' and 'totemic:d_ceremony', respectively (the letter prefixes are unfortunately necessary to ensure the correct registration order).
  • Added the TotemicEvents.modifyTotemCarvings event.
  • The duration of Ceremony effects can now be changed via TotemicEvents.ceremonyEffectTick.

API changes:

• Completely refactored TotemCarving and other relevant classes. PortableTotemCarving and MedicineBagEffect have been removed and merged with TotemCarving and TotemEffect, respectively, which greatly simplifies the system.
• Removed TotemEffectEvent and MedicineBagEffectEvent and replaced them with setter methods on TotemCarving.
• Added setter methods for modifying Ceremonies.
• The duration of Ceremony effects can now be changed via CeremonyEvent.EffectTick.

• Added the config options ceremonyStartupTimeMultiplierEasy, ...Normal and ...Hard, which allow simple adjustment of Ceremony startup times for each difficulty
  • These options will appear in "<save folder>/serverconfig/totemic-server.toml" when you load a world or start the server
• (@HanJiang-cn) Updated Simplified Chinese translation

Note: I will hold off on adding KubeJS integration for 1.20.1 until the integration is more stable in 1.21.1, since there are substantial differences in KubeJS's API.

The ability to adjust Music Instruments, Ceremonies and other contents has been requested for a long time, and now we are finally delivering on that by adding integration with KubeJS. This is still experimental, and feedback and suggestions are much appreciated.

Currently, Totemic provides the startup events TotemicEvents.modifyMusicInstruments and modifyCeremonies, as well as several server and client events for hooking into Ceremonies, e.g. ceremonyEffectTick.

There is no documentation yet, but for now you can look at the test scripts to see how the events can be used.

Changing Totem Effects is not yet supported since I plan on making major changes to the code first to resolve some problems.

Further changes:

• Added the config options ceremonyStartupTimeMultiplierEasy, ...Normal and ...Hard, which allow simple adjustment of Ceremony startup times for each difficulty without Kube
  • These options will appear in "totemic-server.toml" when you load a world or start the server
• (@HanJiang-cn) Updated Simplified Chinese translation

• Totem Bases will now emit a Comparator signal during Ceremonies, based on the music required to start the Ceremony
• (Note: Forge does not provide a config GUI in 1.20.1)

API changes:

• Added several events for Ceremonies and Totem Effects. It is planned to expose these events via KubeJS integration.

• Totem Bases will now emit a Comparator signal during Ceremonies, based on the music required to start the Ceremony
• The config options (other than customTotemWoodTypes) can now be edited in the config GUI

API changes:

• Added several events for Ceremonies and Totem Effects. It is planned to expose these events via KubeJS integration.

This update contains additions that allow more customization when it comes to interactions with other mods, via data packs. This might be especially useful for developers of modpacks and other mods.

• Added new entity type tags:
  • buffalo_dance_targets and eagle_dance_targets: These mobs will be converted to Buffaloes and Bald Eagles, repsectively, by the corresponding Ceremonies.
  • hymn_of_maturity_blacklist: These animals will be excluded from the Hymn of Maturity baby growth acceleration.
• (Note: Data maps are not supported in 1.20.1, so customization of Steve's Lullaby is not available here.)
• Fixed a few potential crashes when feature flags are used.
• Added a bit of Christmas vibes. You might recognize this if you were around 9 years ago (!).
  Hard to believe that Totemic is now over 10 years old (although the pre-1.7.10 versions seem to be lost for the most part).
