Updates/Renewed

Legacy Renewed On April 10th 2020, it was officially announced that the Lord of the Rings Mod will be gradually ported to 1.15 alongside the release of Update 36 for 1.7.10 (which is the last major update for the older version of Minecraft). Branded as the Mod Renewed, the 1.15 version is being released in relatively frequent 'snapshots' (akin to the vanilla snapshots) and will adapt all of the content added to the mod thus far to newer Minecraft versions.

This page will chronicle the snapshot process for the Mod Renewed until it catches up with the mod as it currently exists, after which point further updates will be dealt with as usual on the main updates page. It will also showcase several of the images posted on the mod's Facebook page, and the highlight videos made by Glflegolas, for each snapshot.

Read the full, official announcement of the Mod Renewed here.

You can read the full changelog for the Mod Renewed here.

The renewed version of the mod can also be found on CurseForge here.

If you use the Just Enough Items Mod (JEI), you can download a LotR plugin (made by Malvegil) here.

The focus for the snapshots around the time of 1.7's release is to add most of the major biomes so that Middle-earth map generation can be added without leaving too many gaps. For this reason, the sizes of biomes in this snapshot was reduced by around a quarter, to allow easier exploration of new biomes until map generation.

The 2.0 snapshot added the long-awaited Middle-earth map generation, as well as 30 biomes to fill it up a bit - including a greatly improved ocean. The system is more customisable than the legacy form, with the use of data packs to change several map settings, as well as the image itself. It also retextured and added several blocks, as well as chrysanthemums, bronze nuggets and lanterns, and spiky Uruk bars. Notably, this was also the first snapshot to be posted on Curseforge.
