A variant of the "Lost Cities Modern Tweaks" datapack which shares the same content but removes most light sources, providing a more challenging experience.
Tweaked City Generation Without Lights
Library Without Lights
Dark Railyway Tunnels
This datapack (packaged as a mod) is a variant of the Lost Cities Modern Tweaks datapack. It shares the same content except that most light sources are removed. It provides a more challenging experience and better fits into some post apocalyptic settings.
⚠ You need to have The Lost Cities installed to use this datapack ⚠
The lighting option provided by The Lost Cities currently on works for torches, not other light sources. Therefore, I need to make this separate datapack.
Detailed changes:
⚠ See Lost Cities Modern Tweaks for additional details. ⚠
⚠ DO NOT install this mod and the original Lost Cities Modern Tweaks at the same time. ⚠
Feel free to use this datapack in any modpacks. The MIT license also gives you a lot of freedom to do additional tweaks yourselves (as the source code are just json files included in the pack).
This datapack has been tested with various vanilla Lost Cities profiles. However, it is impossible to test every heavily modded environment that heavily modifies worldgen. So if the datapack works flawlessly, that's great and enjoy it! If not, you may have to remove it, or manually resolve the issue if you are experienced. Do not report issues caused by this datapack to the Lost Cities mod!
Before 1.0.10 for Minecraft 1.20.1 and 2.0.7 for Minecraft 1.12.1, the answer is highly unlikely for the following reasons:
Starting from 1.0.10 for Minecraft 1.20.1 and 2.0.7 for Minecraft 1.12.1, general compatibility has been improved because the datapack moved the majority of the tweaks under its own pack namespace lcmt. The datapack only overrides the following datapack files from the base Lost Cities mod:
lostcities/lostcities/worldstyles/standard.jsonlostcities/lostcities/worldstyles/standard_everywhere.jsonlostcities/lostcities/citystyles/citystyle_border.jsonThese overrides help enable all the tweaks by default so you need to manually create new lost cities profiles to enjoy them.
It should be compatible with mods that are compatible with The Lost Cities mod. The lootable chested/barrels added by this datapack are also compatible with mods like https://modrinth.com/mod/lootr.
If you are using the mod version, dependency check should be automatically performed by the mod loader. However, if you are using the datapack version, you must manually verify it is compatible with version of the Lost Cities mod you installed:
