    Note: The current version of the pack works on 1.20. For the 1.18.2 and 1.19 version, check the Older Versions section. The pack doesn't work in 1.18.1 for technical reasons. There will also be no back-ports.
    With a possible exception for 1.19, some day.

    Also available on CurseForge and Modrinth as a fabric/forge mod for both 1.18.2 and 1.19.2! (Although it is no longer universal. You'll have to chose one for your mod loader and version)
    We also have a place on Discord on William Wyther's server, which you can join here.


    Description

      Towns & Towers is a mod / datapack which aims to expand upon the 1.14 update created by Mojang with new villages, pillager outposts, and even brand-new ships. The structures themselves are a bit more detailed than their vanilla counterparts, but they still fit seamlessly into the world. Not only that but many are inspired by real-life buildings or architectural styles, giving them a fresh new feel. There are over 50 structures added by Towns and Towers so far (as of update 1.9), so have fun exploring! And remember, it’s not the destination that’s important, but the journey to get there.

    Structure Gallery

      If you want to check out all of the structures we have made so far without playing, you can do so here.

    Compatibility

      The pack should be compatible with most world generation datapacks, such as Terralith (which has exclusive structures if you use both packs together), or packs that add similar structures, like ChoiceTheorem's Overhauled villages. Towns and Towers is also compatible with world generation mods, like BYG or the mod version for Terralith, as well as structure mods like Repurposed Structures. However, some features from other mods are not currently present, like the guards from Villager Guards mod or certain buildings from Farmer's Delight for example. This will be addressed in the future via a series of datapacks, which will implement features from those mods into ours.

    Compatibility Patches
      Down below you can find a list of compatibility patches we have made so far for Towns and Towers and how to install them. These work for version 1.10 and above. NOTE THAT IF YOU ARE USING THE MOD VERSION YOU DON'T NEED TO INSTALL THESE, AS THEY WILL BE APPLIED AUTOMATICALLY.


    Fabric Waystone patch (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/fabric-waystones) can be found here.
      * unzip the zip file and paste the config.json5 file into .minecraft/config/fwaystones (for 1.19.2) or .minecraft/config/waystones (for 1.18.2). You can use this with the other waystone mod as well.

    Normal Waystone patch (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/waystones) can be found here.
      * install the compatibility patch the same way you install a normal datapack. Just make sure you load it ABOVE the base datapack file.


    1.18.2 And Older Versions

    Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    Is it safe to update Towns and Towers?
      Yes. Just note that sometimes when we update a few things get changed, so there might be a bit of console spam. If any serious problems arise because of that, let us know. And, as always, make a backup before upgrading.

    Is it safe to add Towns and Towers to an already existing world?
      Yep. Just note that the new structures will only spawn in newly generated chunks.

    What’s the difference between the mod and datapack versions?
      The main difference is the ease of use basically. With the mod version, you don’t need to add it each time you create a new world, and you can more easily incorporate it into modpacks. The datapack is easier to customize though. Other than that, nothing is changed. Performance, features, and functions are the same.

    How can I locate the new structures?
      For 1.18.2: /locate towns_and_towers:[​structure_from_list]
      For 1.19+: /locate structure towns_and_towers:[​structure_from_list]
      Note that some structures have the exclusives tag added in front. Those structures cannot be located if you only have T&T installed. You also need to have one of the mods that T&T is paired with, such as Terralith, BoP, BYG, or Promenade (hence the name).


    What about the loot of these structures?
      The majority of structures use vanilla loot tables for better mod compatibility, but they also use some custom loot tables to better integrate said structures into the world. You will still find pillager outpost loot in pillager outposts, profession chests in villages, as well as bells, workstations, etc., but also new stuff like food, armor, and other goodies.

    Is there a Bedrock version of Towns and Towers?
      Not as of now. In the future, maybe.

    Does T&T modify vanilla structures or add new ones?
      As of update 1.9, Towns and Towers only adds new structures. The remade pillager outpost has been removed for better mod compatibility (basically a failsafe. If none of our outposts have a certain feature from a mod, at least the vanilla pillager outpost would)

    Can I include Towns and Towers in a modpack?
      Yes, but make sure to give credit and maybe a link to our page. Also, don't use a modified version of T&T in your modpack.

    Can I modify Towns and Towers and re-distribute it?
      If it’s for personal use, you can modify Towns and Towers to your heart’s content. If, however, you want to distribute a separate, modified version to the public, we, unfortunately, cannot allow that. We generally want to keep Towns and Towers as “pure” as possible, as other users may modify our pack in some unexpected ways.

    Basic guides for modifying Towns and Towers
    How do I make a structure spawn more / less frequently?
      Go to data/towns_and_towers/worldgen/structure_set. There are some files defining certain types of structures. Increase the spacing and separation parameters in each of these files to make structures appear less frequently (the first defining maximal distance between structures, the second minimal), and decrease them to make structures spawn more frequently. The values should be at the bottom of the list, for pillager outposts, villages, and ships.

    How can I remove a structure?
      Go to data/towns_and_towers/worldgen/structure (for 1.18.2 it's data/towns_and_towers/worldgen/configured_structure_feature). There, you'll find a list of .json files with names corresponding to specific structures. Delete every file with the name of the structure you don’t want to spawn anymore. After that, go to the structure_set folder (it should be right next to the structure folder) and delete the entry of your structure (for example, towns_and_towers:village_beach. Just make sure you also delete the curly brackets associated).
      Congratulations, you removed your structure. (why would you do that though? ☹).

    How do I update Towns and Towers?

      1. Open the datapack folder of your world, located in .minecraft/saves/world_name/datapacks
      2. Delete the old versions of Towns and Towers
      3. Paste the new version of Towns and Towers
      4. Close everything and enjoy

    If you are looking for even more villages and pillager outposts, also try out Choice Theorem's Overhauled Villages here (though it is recommended to only use 1 of the 2 packs as using both can bloat your world):

    If you have any issues/suggestions/questions, write them down below in the comments and we’ll try to answer them as soon as possible and as best as possible.

    21 Update Logs

    1.13 - A Spontaneously Realistic Upadte : by Kubek727 05/18/2024 4:57:56 pmMay 18th

    - the pack was updated to 1.20.6/5, while maintaining compatibility with every version past 1.20
    - an experimental change has been made to how structures generate (at what "stage" of world generation).
    - swamp village structures have been updated to fit modern T&T vibe better (this structure was actually the oldest one remaining mostly unchanged for almost 3 Years)
    - bone blocks in swiss style structures have been replaced with calcite
    - several changes to various struectures
    - foliage generation in T&T structures now utilises features and should be a lot more random

    Question, I was testing to see if this data pack would work on realms and it seems like it stops working once I upload the singleplayer world to realms. What would cause this? I have tried other data packs like tree capacitor and waystones and they work fine when in realms.

    Worldgen datapacks are not supported by Realms. There's no way we could make it work :((

    Hi! I'm using the latest version on 1.20.1 and it generates only half of the pirates ships (middle to back section all missing). I don't know why (the other structures seem to be ok). I wanna go back to the previous version I had which was better (to me) but I can't find it. Any way I could get it back (so I can get fully generated pirate ships?). Thanks :D

    Edit: If I try to spawn the boats myself they also only generate half of them.

    I have a lot of mods in this save but I also got the same issue in 1.20.4 without any mods (except optifine). I do have a lot of datapacks but usually they play nice together. It's really when I updated this one that I noticed this issue. I have some photos taken in my 1.20.1 save but I don't know if the link works for others (I am not super tech) here

    Tell me if you need any more detail.
