Welcome to aTFC

Why?

Because we didn't like how TFC-TNG dropped the food mechanics from the original Mod, and were not happy with the current performance of TFC+ which is still being based on Minecraft 1.7.10. We also wanted to dabble in writing Minecraft mods, after playing the game for a decade.

What does aTFC stand for?

The term aTFC stands for another TFC, because this is yet another rewrite of the most amazing Minecraft mod that was ever made. Our goal is to recreate the original TFC mod, running on the newest Minecraft version (1.16.4), as well as introduce changes we enjoyed by both TFC+ and TFC-TNG.

This mod is different to...

• TFC+: as it is not based on the original code for Minecraft 1.7.10
• TFC-TNG as it is not dropping the food mechanics

How to build & run

1. run gradlew build
2. run gradlew runData to generate json files (models, blockstates, ...)
3. run gradlew build
4. run gradlew runClient or use the runClient.launch config in eclipse to start the game

After the first build you only have to run steps 2, 3 and 4. If no generators were touched, step 4. is enough.

OR

1. run gradlew buildData to generate json files (models, blockstates, ...) and build, etc.
2. run gradlew runClient or use the runClient.launch config in eclipse to start the game

Some blocks don't load properly?

Delete the src/generated directory or run gradlew deleteGeneratedFiles
