WHAT
----
This is a compilation of many various mods for Minecraft which greatly enhances the single player experience. It adds new mobs, secret chests, battle towers full of monsters and treasures, new biome caves, new items, and so much more.


New key commands:
M - Zan's Minimap Options/Waypoints (if installed)
Z - Change zoom setting on minimap (if installed)
V - Display direction of nearest Millenaire town
CTRL/SHIFT/ALT + Click on a stack of items to move the whole stack or just one item to and from crafting/inventory.
Holding a number + clicking on an item will move that item to its corresponding slot.
Middle clicking in a box or inventory will sort all items.

Airship controls:
SPACE - Ascend
LSHIFT - Descend
C - Fire arrows
B - Airship chest (put arrows in here to arm yourself!)


Recipe Book:
-Combine an ink sac and a book. Right click while holding it to open it, left click advances through entries while right click goes back an entry. Escape closes the book.


Magic Wands:
-Craft gilded bones first with ink sacs, gold ingots and bones. Then craft 2 gilded bones with either a slime ball, tnt or an iron block.

-Explosive wand - Left click on mobs to make them go BOOM. Right click for a massive area explosion.

-Lightning wand - Left click on mobs to shock them. Right click for bolts of lighting to rain down. Holding this wand gives you the passive ability to be immune to fire and lava.

-Jump wand - Left click on mobs to fling them sky high into the air. Right click while looking at the ground to bounce yourself up high. Holding this wand gives you the passive ability to be immune to fall damage. (it's also possible to wall climb too)


Notable hints:
-Increase your max health by defeating tower golems. Also you can possibly find heart containers and pieces in dungeon chests. Craft 4 pieces to create 1 container.

-Craft bones and coal to make bone torches. It yields 2 instead of the normal 4, but they're brighter and very helpful when stuck in the dark depths with no wood or sticks.

-Right click on fairies with at least 9 flowers of any type to befriend them. Right click them again and you can glide jump while they ride you.

-Slime Boots can double your jump and reduce fall damage.

-Bellthorn flowers can be harvested and tamed. Dig the earth beneath them for a chance to harvest their bulbs. Hold a bulb and their scent will disguise you, keeping you safe from harm.

-Twisters may occasionally pull items from the ground.

-Craft two succubus horns and a bone for a leech sword. About as strong as an iron sword, but has the ability to leech more items from mobs while continuously hit.

-Spider Queens' crown jewels can be harvested. Weaken them until they go back to their human form, then right click them for a finishing blow to collect their jewel. Combine two crown jewels and an iron ingot to make a Shock Blade, which is about as strong as an iron sword, but has the added ability to do area damage to foes around you. Great for when you're swarmed!

-Instead of using flint for making arrows, try various other items...

-There's many other secrets as well, can you find them all?


HOW
---
Make sure you have a fresh MINECRAFT.JAR before installing! Also if you have an existing MODS and/or MILLENAIRE folder, remove them or back them up before installing to avoid possible issues!

Extract the contents of this zip into it's own folder, then run the NOW Installer.jar and follow the on screen prompts, select the optional mods/features provided if any then play!

Known conflicts:
Optimine -- GLSL shaders (will not work at ALL)

The optimine mod can possibly improve performance on your system. Just drag the zip's contents into your minecraft.jar. Please note that optimine and GLSL shaders do not work together.

If you're still having performance issues, try disabling Advanced OpenGL.

WHY
---
Why not? I've played through many, MANY mods. Many good, many bad and some just downright AWFUL. These are the mods that have been tried and tested to ensure that Minecraft's single player survival mode is greatly enhanced without distracting from the core experience. Many people out there are just too lazy or not technically inclined enough to install these on their own, so I've decided to package up what I feel is a premium experience and share with the world.

If you greatly enjoy this compilation, please, please, PLEASE reward the original mod authors with praise and/or paypal donations. Just visit their respective urls for more info. Don't be a part of the whine brigade that is known as the stereotypical Minecraft community member and do your part to show these mod authors the respect they truly deserve!
