AstikorCarts MOD perfect support
[https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/astikorcarts
Done! Originally, diamond hoe was used for Plow, but since there is no diamond in Middle-earth, I chose iron hoe. Since there are many situations where farming is left to NPCs, I think that this level of change will not be a problem.
Enjoy!
SublimeText and Mediawiker Setup
Mediawiker is an addon for SublimeText that allows you to edit pages directly within SublimeText. River from Gamepedia has a great blog about it here where she shares more about it and her setup. I am similarly putting my setup here for my own and possibly others' reference.
- 1 Pros and Cons
- 2 My Plugin List
- 3 Configs
- 3.1 Mediawiker
Overall, I find SublimeText/Mediawiker pretty helpful because I often copy and paste page/template source into a text editor anyway so that I can do find/replace (although this will be built into the editor in UCP!), see if curly braces match up, etc. I think it's definitely better for templates or code pages than content pages though.
- (Pro) Syntax highlighting is quite nice overall but has some quirks (ex. when callin…
Treecapitator Config
I changed the config file of Treecapitator MOD so that it can cut down trees in Middle-earth, so make a note of the setting.

Granite, Andesite, and Diorite -- Where Would They Be Found?
Hello folks,
This blog post was written in response to a discussion with Mevans on the mod's Discord (where he got really jealous of my proximity to the Eastern Shore Granite ridge) where we were trying to establish: where would vanilla granite, andesite, and diorite spawn in Middle-earth? I took some inspiration from the Geologic map of Nova Scotia, and here are some of my findings.
- 1 The Rocks
- 1.1 Andesite
- 1.2 Granite and Diorite
- 2 Where would they be
found?
- 2.1 Andesite
- 2.2 Granite and Diorite
- 3 New rock type?
Andesite is an igneous extrusive rock, which means it's typically associated with areas that are currently or used to be volcanic. They generally have small crystals, due to being formed from lava that solidified fairly quickly on the earth's sur…
How do you make all the pictures look like the minecraft wiki?
How does the developpers make all the pictures look like the minecraft wiki? I mean not like screenshot. Do you just take a screenshot from the right angle with the good daytime and you remove the background? Im talking about the blocks and the structure wiki picture not the texture.
where can we find the npc skins?
as the title said, i think the elven skins are really well made and i would like to use one myself, any idea where i may find the npc skins? or at least that high quality skins? (sorry if this is not where i should ask, im new to this page)
Music Pack: Music of the Ainur
Music of the Ainur is a music pack that adds a variety of classical-ish music to Middle-earth. With famous works such as the symphonies of Beethoven to folk songs of the Middle-east, Music of the Ainur contains over 100 unique works. It's my hope that this adds a new element to your exploration of Middle-earth.
It is highly recommended that you increase the minimum time between tracks (you can do this by clicking 'mods' from Minecraft's main menu), or that you use it in conjunction with another music pack.
Due to the way the music system works, sometimes tracks will continue to play even if you've left the area they are meant to play in. If this bothers you too much, you can reset the music by going into your options, turning music off, returni…
Restarting the LOTR Font Pack
The LOTR Font Pack that I "teased" a few months ago will have to be remade from the beginning again, I lost the original pack I was working on due to my computer breaking down (It was seven years old, so should've been no surprise). I'll start working on it again very soon.
Fan-Made Update 36 Rundown
Made by me (Nakras) and FroggisMe/Owen, here is a more cinematic rundown of the latest update, with custom music etc. as a quality start up for our new channel. We’ll be posting tutorials, gameplay and guild related stuff based within the Lotr mod and other things of entertainment. Feel free to subscribe or share the video around. It’ll be much appreciated
Mordor Renewed ~ Download Available!
Hey comrades, it's been a while.
As those of you in the Community Discord may have heard, I have begun completely revamping my old Mordor map. Progress has been made, and now it is once more time for a WIP version to be put out.
The link to download, the link to some pics, and a list of everything that's on the map can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bZRxSdROIuzhGQP-FGznW_7tu6s_fTb_Q8Z8f3RXHn0/edit

I've often been on servers where I found a lot of simple "wood cubes" as houses. They were often built by new players who need a cheap and useful shelter.

So I started developing starter bases. They should look nicer as the cubes but should cover everything a new player needs. You'll find everything from a crafting table, to a small kitchen garden in a faction specific building. I only use blocks from the lotr mod and vanilla minecraft, so everybody can build this. P…
JEI LOTR for LOTR Renewed-1.1
I officially announce the JEI plugin for LOTR Renewed - JEI LOTR.
If you didn't know, NEI (NotEnoughItems) doesn't exist at 1.15.2 anymore, instead, there is JEI (JustEnoughItems).
Feature-wise they are comparable, so nothing to worry about.
To make it compatible with the LOTR Mod, a plugin is needed, which I just made - JEI LOTR.
The benefit of JEI LOTR is, that JEI has a much better structure as NEI, and thus NEI Recipe Handlers isn't neeeded anymore - just the LOTR Mod, JEI and JEI LOTR.
JEI LOTR is open source and licensed under the GPL 3.0.

In Eriador and Minhiriath, that is where they take refuge, that is where the…Currently Working on a Resourcepack
I am trying to make a resourcepack that will simply change the Minecraft font into some higher quality LOTR font. I'm sure there is probably another resourcepack that already does this, but this pack will only change the font, and is higher quality. Heres a little test of the pack so far, I might need to fix some of the spacing still, and I'm not too happy with the G yet. Let me know if there are any LOTR font resource packs already.
lotr structures - reworked
We alle know them and we all love them - the generated structures of the lotr mod! They serve as starter bases, looting areas and as beautiful decorations of the landscape. There's no doubt that everybody that these strucutres truely bring middle earth to live.
However I think those structure have another purpose: they serve as inspirations for players to build in faction specific styles. So I did it! I took the high elven structues of the mod and mixed them with my own building style. With this faction I've choosen a quite difficult faction because I've always felt that the mods building style doesn't fit my imagination of the high elves because the bright colours look a lot like a "comic" styled version of the high elves. In addition I ne…

How much is a Silver Coin worth??
Hello everyone,
After seeing a certain Game Theory episode, I started wondering: How much is the currency in Middle-earth -- the Silver Coin -- worth in real life dollars?
For this comparison, I am going to use Canadian dollars, due to my living in Canada. As you'll soon see, there are quite a few ways to approach this question.
An ingot of silver consists of 1/9th of a block of Silver, which measuring 1m3, would have a mass of 10.5. That means that the silver block weighs a total of 10.5 metric tons, and each ingot would weigh 1.167 tons.
Now consider that you can get nine nuggets of silver out of an ingot, and each nugget makes one coin. Therefore, each coin weighs 130kg. With today's silver prices ($767 Canadian/kg), that one coin would cos…
MPM LOTR - More Player Models now fully works with the LOTR Mod
Ever installed MPM with the LOTR Mod and experienced the weird blackscreen?
This can be fixed by disabeling the PoV setting from MPM, but sadly, that also disables that feature, which means that for example if you choose the Balrog model, your "Point of View" (PoV) is stil the player one, not the high Point of View a Balrof (or any comparable large model) would have.
I created a small mod which fixes that - MPM-LOTR. Just download it and drop it into your mods folder, voila.
- v35.3/v35.4 of the LOTR Mod

Discord Server and Wiki Conduct
Hello all, I am writing this blog post to inform the community of a collective staff decision that was made this week. As many of you are aware, this wiki has a discord server which is utilized for discussions related to the mod and wiki, as well as to provide a less structured digital hang-out area for LOTR Mod fans, specifically those who are wiki members. The wiki forum is also utilized for more structured discussions of various topics, Suggestions and Bug Reports primarily.
As the wiki staff, we have come to the conclusion that the behavior of many users of both the wiki and the discord server have been allowed to let the rules of both discussions platforms slide beyond what we believe to be acceptable, and the staff as a collective hav…
NEI Emmaitar - a Not Enough Items plugin for Emmaitar
Playing on a server with Emmaitar but wondering how many paintings they have?
Well, here's the solution, use the brand new NEI plugin for Emmaitar (well, it's not that new, but anyway ...)!
You don't know what Emmaitar is? It's an awesome mod from Mevans itself, which allows the addition of custom paintings to Minecraft.
- 1 Features
- 2 Screenshots
- 3 Installation
- 3.1 Requirements
- 4 Important Links and Download
- Integrates the painting recipes in NEI crafting and usage mode - with displaying the actual painting
- Adds a painting button to the crafting table which - upon clicking it - shows every painting registered via Emmaitar
- Contains an integrated version checker which notifies you about new versions
- Make sure the required mods are installed (see below)

Region Spotlight -- Issue 33 -- October 20, 2019
Man it's been way too long since I did one of these, but here goes nothing. Region spotlight is back, and I will hopefully be doing it slightly more often from now on (I'll aim for ~ once a month). But anyways, what region shall I feature this time?
Today I have chosen a region that looks slightly different with the new resource pack than it did in the past and is located just west of the Misty Mountains. It's Dunland.
- 1 Where is it?
- 2 What do you like about this region?
- 3 Any advice for travellers?

Dunland is north of Isengard and west of the Misty Mountains, somewhat to the south of Eregion. If you come from Gondor direction, head along the Greenway and turn north soon after the Fords of Isen. If you come from Bree, follow the Greenway u…
A fix for laggy horses
Good day everyone,
A good many things were changed in , but among them, one of the greatest changes was that to horses & other mounts, so that their movement is controlled client-side, rather than server-side.
While for lots of people, this was a great fix, for a few others, including myself, this change resulted in horses becoming extraordinarily slow, barely the speed of sneaking.
Just this morning, I think I've found a fix for this problem. The fix is quite straightforwards, and takes maybe 5 minutes to complete.
The problem (as far as I gather) occurs when the mod is
downloaded as a .zip file, as opposed to a
.jar file. For more about what's happening, see the
picture below.
When downloaded the mod will end up in your default downloads director…
A New "Retrospective" Series
Hello every, Fronacen here. For anyone who recognizes me, I'll be a sight for sore eyes.
With the latest update out for the mod, I have decided to start a blog series, a retrospective as it were.
Of course, retrospective usually implies something has run its course: that is not what am saying about this mod. Instead, I want to use my experience with this mod and it's many updates to critically look back at what has happened with this mod. This is not meant as a review of the mod.
I would also like to point out a few things:
First of all, for those who don't know, I have been watching this mod for a LONG time (I believe way back in July, 2013, when Mirkwood was added). For people at home, that means since Beta 7. I have seen a lot, both mod-add…

Constructive critisism on how to make this and any other maps better would be gladly welcomed.

- The cold deserts and steppes of Rhun could be a little more inland, (not entirely sure how the sea of Rhun effects things

Name for a LOTR Mod YouTube channel
Hey guys, I've been thinking of making a LOTRMC channel (in addition to my bug related YouTube) for a while now, and recently decided to go for it. I already have my first video filmed and trimmed, but I have yet to come up with a name for my channel. Any ideas?

Why this mod is still relavent to me -- even after SIX years!
Good day folks,
I've been around here a while. A long while, actually. In fact, I am the second oldest still active wiki contributor, and have seen my fair share of moments on the wiki, from great collaborations on projects to angry arguments resulting in the ban of multiple users.
Yet I've been playing the mod for even longer, for nearly six years, in fact. Over that time, the mod has also grown greatly, going from a small mod that added a few regions and factions of Middle-earth in a randomly-generated pattern (still accessible if you use Middle-earth Classic world generation) to a mod that adds in the entire continent of Middle-earth, along with almost all of its factions.
Even though all this time has passed, and I've grown considerably o…

Server-side mod: RndTp
If you think baby orcs should not be born in The Shire and then crawl their way down to Mordor (probably why they keep talking about maggots!), or on the contrary if you wonder why those so-called quiet people originating from The Shire are making all the fuss everywhere in Arda, then you may be interested by what follows:
rndtp (RaNDom TelePort) is a server-side mod that you can use for randomly teleporting players into specific areas.
It's designed for server operators to be used in server signs / pressure plates / command blocks in a server spawn in order to spread players on their chosen faction territory.
While not specifically dedicated to the Lord of the Rings mod, this mod has a companion set of directories/files enabling you to teleport a…
Music Pack: Ambience of Middle-Earth
Ambience of Middle-earth is a music pack which adds the sounds of the world to Middle-earth. From a gentle breeze rolling across the shire, the staccato chatter of birds in the jungles of Harad, or the eerie sounds of water dripping from stalactites in a cave, this pack (hopefully!) adds a new element to the environment.
It is highly recommended that this pack be used with an increased minimum time between music tracks (can be changed via "mods" button from Minecraft's main menu), or be used in conjunction with a second music pack.
Due to the way the music system works, sometimes tracks will continue to play even if you've left the area they are meant to play in. If this bothers you too much, you can reset the music by going into your opti…
Greater Rohan Map
Hello Everyone, I've decided to create a Map of Greater Rohan; Including Isengard, Dunland, The Adornland, Rohan and Fangorn
By now, many of you have seen Grevious' Mordor map. And I wanted to try and build on that (not to take away from his or replace) because many people out there might not have the time or the skills to re-create rohan. This is just the start, only including Isengard with; The Tower of Orthanc, Caverns of Isengard, Campsites and a re-done biome and wall. It is available to be downloaded.
Just for the Beginning you will spawn just outside Nan-Curunir, on the path. Later on i will make a camp with supplies and fill out Structures with Resources.
Here’s a list (so far), with descriptions, of the builds included:

Playing with Fire -- Making coloured flames
About a day ago, I got to play around with an oxy-hydrogen torch, that burns at around 3200 oC. I made some solutions of various metal salts, such as NaCl, KBr, Sr(CH3COO)2, CuSO4, and put these solutions into the hot flame. When I did this I got some beautiful colours.
Some of these emission lines, such as Na, K, Li, and Cu, you may have seen in fireworks. Sr can be seen in road flares. But I'm sure you haven't seen all these flame colours.

Cool Decoration
Bear with me, this could be a little confusing.
Now, this is a cool trick I discovered a while back. It's a little resource consuming, it can only be used in pretty specific lighting, but it looks pretty cool.
Here's a picture of the end result in a WIP Gundabad build I started ages ago:
So, looking pretty cool, isn't it? This is how you do it.
Alright, first choose where you want the food item to lie. We'll call that block 1.
Block 2 is directly adjacent to block 1, and you'll dig three blocks down from block 2. Place a torch at the bottom of the hole.

Understand now? Excellent. It takes a little less than 64 food

Region Spotlight -- Issue 32 -- February 13, 2019
Why hello there.
It's been a while since I've done this, but with a rather messy winter storm bearing down on my house, I figured why not do this since I really don't have anything else to do.
The region I have chosen to feature today is actually more of a region variant than a true region. It's rather wet, and is the kind of location where people like to build cottages in real life. That's right, it's a lake.
- 1 Where are they?
- 2 What do you like about this region?
- 3 Any advice for travellers?

Lakes and ponds can be found as uncommon variants of most regions of Middle-earth. The exact location of each lake/pond depends on the world seed, and varies depending on the world, although fixed lakes are found near Esgaroth, north of the Shire, and s…
New funny bug in the sauron mob
ok so im using the 1.6.4 version of lotr and what im going to say is funny
i spawned in multiple saurons on some elves to see what would happen
they defeated the elves but they dealt damage to eachother with the mace and look at this meme i made becuase they started hitting eachother XD
one does not simply make the dark lord angry at himself
Ahoy!
This is just a quick announcement to let you all know that I'm working on an updated Pirate Speak translation for the mod. It doesn't appear to have been updated for a long time, as more than half the blocks and items have no translation. My plan is for it to be totally comprehensive, like any good translation, and include everything from weapons and armor to gui and achievements.

Complete with color maps and in-depth battle profiles, each chapter explores 1-3 months of the Clone Wars at a time, treating the conflict as one massive story, from the widely-known battles of…
Has the LotR Mod Lost Its Charm? Applying AntVenom's Video to the Mod
Good day,
Today, I watched a video on AntVenom's channel, in which he tries to answer the question, "is Minecraft (vanilla, modded, otherwise) dying?" By all accounts of sales figures and active players, the answer to that question is no. The game is still selling well, and more people have played Minecraft in November than in the past several years. So the game isn't dying by a numbers point of view.
But, you can also look at it from a more philosophical point of view: has Minecraft lost the charm that attracted players years ago? To answer this, watch AntVenom's video on the topic below.
After watching this video, it got me thinking. We're in a similar situation with the Lord of the Rings mod in that it's been around for a good many years (close …

Today I had the... Fortunate? Hardly. UNfortunate? Also not applicable... Let's go with interesting. Yeah, interesting. Well, as I was saying, today I had the interesting privilege of entering the Warhammer Universe(s). I was looking for a long while for a good, relatively cheap strategy game that I can join with little worry of being dominated. Not a "strategy" game like League of Legends, where it seems to be whoever can click fastest (actually, come to think of it, thats a LOT of the games out now) instead of using any brainpower whatsoever. I mean getting down and dirty into the game, commanding, sustaining, and building armies, kingdoms, etc. Most MMO games around this genre I have seen so far give a diagonal view of the battle, when …

Considerations for the College Search
Hello everyone! I know this is not at all related to either Minecraft or LOTR, but I also know that quite a few of you here are high school students in the middle of the college search / decision process, and I decided to write this blog in the hopes that it will be of use to those of you currently in that situation.
- This blog was written specifically with students in the United States in mind, although some of it may also be applicable to the education systems in other countries.
- This is by no means an exhaustive list of questions one should ask potential colleges or situations that one may encounter, but is taken from formal training that I received to mentor high school juniors and seniors going through the college application process, m…
Who are the Variags
As the title implies, who are the Variags? I know there are quite a few loremasters in this wiki. I have been doing some extensive research on the Variags, and have come up with my own theories. This is really just a post on my theories, feel free to chime in.
First off the word Variag, now the obvious answer is that it is a play on Varangian. The Varangians were Vikings that travelled east into modern day Russia, Belorussia, Ukraine, Moldova, Turkey, and even as far as Greece. They are famous for the Varangian guard, a guard of 2,000 Varangians that protected the emperor of the Byzantines. But the true history lies in Russia. See back in the Dark ages the people of Novgorod wanted a strong ruler, so they asked a Varangian chieftain to lead…
My Opinion about the Lotr mod by mevans
I Think this mod is great and that it deserves a lot of attention and that it should continue.
Mevans is a cool mod creator i'm glad he made a mod for Tolkien becuase i love Lotr and read all the books.
The mod is very fun and a great questing mod i have never seen a mod that had a questing system like this.
The plant and worldgen is also very cool and i like how the Mobs will interact and talk with the player.
Mevans is very creative in my words and that this mod should be the 1st best mod for all minecraft.
Book Vs. Movie Azog (And Bolg)
