Download the newest Modpack of my LOTR project on CurseForge: 

Middle-earth: Complete Map With All Locations And Heroes With Story Quests!

This is only a Modpack and does not work without the Map.
Full info about this project and download links: ►Discord: https://discord.gg/UxDYMmzMNZ

Hello and welcome to Middle-earth.
A place of adventure and epic tales.

This world file was made to combine the LOTR Mod for Minecraft, with all the important locations and characters, as well as other fitting mods like Rings of Power, lore weapons and Custom NPC's with Quests and skins.

It 's in active development over a few years now and the project is growing every day.

Our goal is to recreate Tolkien's world with accurate lore, in a new role play game experience.
All new added structures will be manually edited into the world and improved,
to make sure they fit in a nice transition into the environment.

Experience Middle-earth like never before with a full open world.
Hundreds of lovely created dialog lines, with many different
answer choices, lies ahead for you to explore.

Quest lines that will lead you into the footsteps of your heroes
and many followers you can hire on the way.
But are you able to destroy the one ring, or will you bound to his power?

The world is available in many languages.

English, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish, Slovak, German and Chinese.
More are currently worked on and are planned 2023/24:

Thanks for downloading and playing.

F.A.Q.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How to Download the world/map?
A: Check out our discord for more information and download links in the install tutorial channel:

https://discord.gg/UxDYMmzMNZ

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

►PlanetMinecraft (only Infopage)

Planet Minecraft Page

Edit: If you can download but not open the file,
you probably dont have win.rar or 7zip, you need it to unzip the pack.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I have problems setting up a multiplayer server.
A: Check out the tutorial picture in the folder.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Why are so many particle effects in the bottom layer of Minas Tirith and Pelennor fields?
A: The version 1.7.10 has a high limit of like 260 blocks, so some tall areas have to start at a very deep layer.
You can fix it by changing "Void Particles to :Off" in the options.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Some of the characters like the Nazgul and the Witchking are invisible or have a pink skin.
A: If that is the case, than you have not installed the customNPC folder correctly.
Its need to be put inside your normal minecraft location in "AppData\Roaming\ .minecraft".
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Can i play as an evil character?
A: For now only the good campaign is worked on, but an evil one with an alternative ending where you keep the ring is planed.
Even evil followers like the witch-king, saruman and many more. For now you can just play sandbox style
as an evil faction by earning alignment for them from the lotr mod quests.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: My follower is gone and i cant find the new spawn point of him/her that was created from the soulstone.
A: Go into creative mode, take the NPC cloner tool and clone him again. All followers are saved as clones in the folders.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: My follower died what now?
A: He will be respawn in 2 min at the location you have found him.
If you died, he will wait at your grave.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How do i put of the ring Gandalf gave me?
A: The Rings of power are activated as soon as they are in your inventory,
just use a pouch from the lotr mod to put it off.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I died and lost the Ring, what now?
A: In that case just travel back to Hobbiton, Bag-End and talk to Gandalf.
He will give you the ring back and you dont even have to restart the first mission.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Pressing "L" dont open the lotr menu.
A: Many of the added mods uses the button "L" for something by default.
Just change the keybindings to another button so "L" works again.
(you can copy my Options too /v.3.1 download)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How to import my home base to the new world when there is an update.
A: Install "World-Edit" mod from the optional mods and follow the
instruction in the download folder named tutorial.
If you struggle, there are many YT tutorials for that too. Or just ask us.
To keep your Quest progress copy your Playerdata files over.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: How do i update to the new version of the world?
A: You dont have to install forge again, just put all other mods into the mods folder and
delete the older versions of the mods, incase we added new versions.
Copy the customNPC folder to minecraft location again and the new world
into your save folder, you could even keep the old one.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I want to help in this project what can i do?
A: We are searching for builders, ppl that are know how to work with world edit / MC Edit or CustomNPC mod. Ppl that are familiar with the lore of tolkiens world and can help with quests and dialogs. Or just as a gametester of balancing feeatures. We are sometimes working on the online world together but you can also help in the progress of the singleplayer world with ideas or schematics you can send to "Pacman".
