• Added a boss health bar to the naga, lich and hydra
• Added “panic particles” to the kobolds when they flee, to make them more pathetic and make the animation more understandable

• Fixed uncrafting table recipe

---

• Added model and entity for Kobolds
• Redcaps updated to new AI with new avoid frontal assault task
• Code reorganizations for features

---

• Developed new technology so that players should only be hurt harvesting and walking on hedge maze blocks and not from incidental clicking.

Version 1.8.0 (April 8, 2012)

• Updated to minecraft 1.2.5 and the new forge modloadermp replacement
• Added work-in-progress versions of several new items, including naga scale armor and new wands you will be able to acquire from the Lich boss.
• Fixed a nasty issue with "overkilling" the naga causing a crash
• Several other internal fixes

Version 1.7.2 (April 1, 2012)

• Added firefly jar decorative block. Shapeless recipe = firefly + glass bottle.
• Added many attacks, abilities, and animations to the Lich boss. Still working on him, but he's playable now.
• Added "natural" darkness-based monster spawning to hollow hills and mage towers
• Many tower revisions: made them dark, made stairs rickety, added stair crossings, changed around some room layouts, added more and better treasure, tweaked generation to make the towers larger and more elaborate.
• Added variant larger canopy tree.

Version 1.7 (March 8, 2012)

• No multiplayer in this release, sorry. On the plus side, you don't have to install ModLoaderMp. I'll update in a week or two with multiplayer.
• One more bug fix to portal placement detection. It's really working well now.
• Hydra (preliminary) and Lich (nearly final) models are in the game and you can spawn then in creative mode, but most of their AI isn't hooked up yet.
• New region code changes the landscape generation into a series of biomes with rivers seperating them. Each region has one major feature, like a hollow hill, hedge maze, or boss fight. Some regions are rare.
• Fireflies are now more aggressive about being lit. No more dark fireflies. If you catch any, look at them and they'll light up.
• Ravines are now rarer and don't have lava bottoms in the Twilight Forest.
• A ton of tweaks to biome settings. Ferns are back, bushes grow in some biomes, the swamp should have vines, and more.
• Penguins for the glaciers!
• Removed the top and bottom "cut wood" texture from all the Twilight Forest woods. Let me know if you think this makes it look stupid or "un-minecraft" because I think it looks great!

Version 1.6.1 (Jan 20, 2012)

• Added ModloaderMP to the dependencies. You need it even for single player.
• Multiplayer is now working! Probably still a few bugs, but I think I got most of them.
• Throwing a diamond in the water now makes the diamond fizzle if your pool is built wrong.
• Fixed a dumb math bug that made the portal not work for some negative x and z values.
• Added an option shouldOtherModsGenerateInTwlightForest defaulting to false.

---

Version 1.6 (Jan 20, 2012)

• Updated to Minecraft version 1.1
• Added mob eggs in creative mode for all new mobs. I even included not-really-new mobs like the hostile wolves from the hedge mazes. Beware, nagas will grief your world hard.
• Fixed the situation where the player would respawn in midair and fall
• The world should have bedrock again
• Other mods should no longer spawn features (like Millenaire villages) in the Twilight Forest that are supposed to only happen in the normal world
• Updated a lot of features to support variable world height. You'll need another mod to change the height, but this mod should be compatible
• Redid a lot of the generation code to support multiplayer better soon
• Had to remove the mazes from under the hollow hills, as some of the code was too old to redo easily
• Redid some of the monster code to better work with multiplayer

---

Version 1.5 (Nov 29, 2011)

• Updated a bunch of code to Minecraft version 1.0
• Fixed all the animal models (deer, bighorn, boar) so that they support baby animals.
• Changed the code that lets axes effect the new blocks so that it no longer crashes if mods have modified the axe class files (also this code seems unnecessary now that axes automatically effect all wood blocks).
• Similarly changed the code that left fire effect the new blocks for better compatibility.
• Reverted the spawn point changing code (so that it never changes the spawn point). Back to the drawing board.
• Slightly changed the code that supports holding the new wood blocks as items.
• Added bigger giant mushrooms that mesh into the canopy layer in mushroom biomes
• Added swamp coloring. It's less intense than regular minecraft. There's still no good transition.

---

Version 1.4 (Nov 2, 2011)

• Wizards towers, the stronghold-equivalent of the Twilight Forest
• Normal strongholds still generate, but steps have been taken to shove them back underground where they belong
• Oceans have been mostly banished from the map, replaced with large, deep lakes.
• Revised the generation table for "features" like the hollow hills, hedge mazes, naga courtyards, etc. There should be more forest space between features, and some features are rarer.
• Naga adjustments! The naga now only takes lava, fire, or explosion damage from direct head hits. He can attack at a greater vertical range, so don't try to hide in holes. Finally, his health has been decreased, depending on the difficulty setting. Hard = 125 hearts, normal = 100 hearts, Easy = 60 hearts.
• Naga scales can be used to make diamond armor (chestplate and leggings only). This is a placeholder. My intention is with the release of 1.9 to have naga scales make a custom armor type, which comes automatically enchanted with something appropriate.
• Skeletal druid spells finally have effects. The druids still need a little more work, which could be the subject of a future update.
• The players spawn in the twilight forest is set to the portal where they first enter.
• The mod generates a config file in which the block IDs can be changed.
• Axes and fire effect the new blocks, and they should properly have names.
• Fireflies and cicadas fall off properly when the block they are on is destroyed.

---

Version 1.3 (Oct. 4, 2011)

• The first boss: The Naga, and his ruined temple courtyard.
• Glaciers should appear rarely in the world, surrounded by snow biomes (currently without snow).
• A new and unique portal-pool.
• Fixed a bug where the player would be stuck underground in the normal world when loading or respawning in a Twilight Forest save game.
• Fixed oceans to be slightly more forest-y. Still deciding about them.
• Bighorn sheep no longer appear in white. Instead they have many colors (mostly brown).
• Smoothed the transition between temple/maze platforms and the surrounding terrain.
