Shadowforms
Challenging survival datapack where mobs are stronger in the dark and weakened in the light. Shadowforms expands on the worlds below and adds many magic-related features
Feature List
Shadowforms also includes an in-game guide book to help the player.Shadowforms
In dark places mobs turn into Shadowforms, which are stronger and faster than normally. In bright light, they're slow and weak.
Some mobs are Strong Shadows, which are stronger and faster than regular shadowforms and don't weaken in light.
Blackened Heart
Blackened Heart is a block that can be obtained by killing Strong Shadows and is used in a variety of rituals!
Structures
Shadowforms adds a new structure, called Mortuary, and a new biome, called the Smog with their own challenges.
Good to know
- Shadowforms and Crop and Kettle have additional features if you have both datapacks installed!
- Due to datapack jank, the in-game guidebook may spam the chat with command gibberish. Fortunately, Shadowforms includes a handy tool called Dynamic Command Feedback which can be toggled with /function dcf:on and /function dcf:off.
- The Unjank mod is also recommended but not at all required!
