This is a continuation of FlowerChild's Better than Wolves total conversion Minecraft mod. Its aim is to both recapture the feeling of that first time you played Minecraft, hiding in a dark hole on your first night with monsters all around, as well as extending gameplay by creating a deep tech tree that lets you slowly master your surroundings, as you craft windmills, kilns and crucibles and eventually reach steel production.
In order not to distribute Mojang's code, we generate the source code on the fly. The way to get the source code is to set up the addon environment and then run the Gradle genSources task.
If you need help with this process or learn how to make addons for BTW, join our Discord server.
