Middle-earth Minecraft Mod
It's a mod that takes place in the famous legendary universe of Tolkien, Middle-earth, in the popular and most played game of all times: Minecraft. There are many factions (Gondor, Rohan, Mordor, Lothlorien, etc.) with more blocks and items than the base game itself or any other minecraft mod.
I started this mod in early 2023 to learn how to do modding on Minecraft Java(and OpenGL).
With time, with only word of mouth, my project got over 16k downloads and over 1600 members on our discord server.
Our latest alpha update, we brought over 80 concurrent players through multiple servers we publicly know of (and many more in single players or LAN groups).
This community is growing fast, working on many translations, wiki, streams, videos, etc. and I am learning a lot as a dev. lead of our team of seven artists and four developers.
Thanks to it, I have mastered procedural generation as I "reinvented the wheel" by doing the world generation from scratch.
My algorithm places block by block for each chunk according to a procedural map that follows the lines of Middle-earth map.
