📌 Features:

Over 800 food items!

Every villager will select up to two random food items for each level, with each getting harder to make. Can you fill their needs? Based on Farmer's Delight, there are mods like Create: Food, End's Delight, Ube's Delight, a custom version of Farmer's Respite, Brewin' and Chewin and many more adding a broad selection of eatables! All production lines and prograssion steps have been carefully designed resulting in hundreds of custom recipes!

Technology blocks must be bought from Villagers!

By leveling up your villagers they will sell you powerful technology and tools based on their profession and level. Unlock mighty machines, enchanted tools and easy resources! Set up contraptions from the Create Mod, adding kitchen elements with Slice 'n Dice and even offering you ComputerCraft to automate your farm with code! Learn how to control little drones to take care of your crops for you! Powered by our own custom version of Numismatic Overhaul you get money to spend money!

Build your unique village, town or megacity!

With a few selected building block mods you have more than enough at your disposal to build anything you can imagine! Set up a cute village with lots of town folk roaming around buying your produce, or lock them up in an highly-efficient noodle soup factory - we don't judge! Grow different crops in specialized biomes and dimensions and connect them by building your very own fast-travel road system with Via Romana!

Food has nutritions which give effects!

You not only take care of your villagers, but also yourself. NutritionZ activates your nutritional needs. All food items have been customized to give you points in 5 different needs which will unlock powerfull bonuses to you - if you eat properly. But lacking certain nutritions will resolve in you being more vulnerable than ever!

A living, beautiful World

Enhanced world generation by Tectonic and a few extra biomes from Nature's Spirit, Aquamirae, Geophilic, Twigs and Spelunkery! Immersive Weathering further enhancing your world by making plants grow everywhere around you! Seasons change and bring rain and snow to your home, changing the behaviour of your crops and cattle! Further immersive yourself in the wilds with an advanced soundscape, rolling thunder and beautiful new particles!

All new game machanics!

Fertility is packed with game altering mods and custom scripts! Grind down grain not just with heavy machinery but also manual labour. Crack stone bricks with a pickaxe or wash dirt with a sluice to gain a few extra resources! Do you love to build rusty stuff? Well, put down some iron fences and watch them oxidize, especially while it is raining! Tired of breeding chicken? Just leave their eggs on a haybale and they will hatch themselves!

Return to the GRIND!

Custom ore generation, custom ore loot tables and custom gameplay changes make managing resources more tedious but also so much more rewarding! Create's automatic ore machines will not work anymore, as ore generation has been disabled for those machines! Ore veins will be harder to find as all metals have been made rare - yet again, when you find them, they will be huge and take days to deplete! But be sure to bring good tools, because ores will drop more, the better your tool is! The enchanting table has been removed, rendering you dependant on the fortune of your villagers to provide you with magical books from their ancient knowledge! Setting up a farm will also demand more of you than just your little average plot. Crop growth has been significantly decreased, while also being dependant on the biome or season. Think big to reap big results!

Mobs, Pets and Critters!

New, cute animals to pet and breed with Naturalist, Mythic Mounts (End Game only!)! New Monsters and variants roam the land and darkness, if you are feeling brave tonight!

Special In-Game Guide Book <3 (and Advancements)

Fertility help you play the game and achieving your goals with a handy little in-game guide book and a lightweight advancement tab. Are you a completionist looking to collect every advancement in game or a cozy farmer with nothing but sunshine and crops on your mind - the truth probably lies in the middle somewhere. Do what you want!

Days are longer, nights are easier!

Fertility changes the day-night cycle a bit, offering you longer days to tend to your farm and take care of everything on your plate. Nights are therefore a bit shorter and usually not that many monsters come out on the surface. But be careful in caves...

Daily Shop for decorations!

At the Daily Shop you will have the chance to buy new decoration every day! The shop offers items, that you can not craft by yourself! Paying it a visit every day is very rewarding!

Bounties for some spice!

Looking for quick and easy money? If you are stress resistant enough for quickly running timers and random orders, head on to the next Bounty Board and grab yourself a ticket! The fast and handy will be rewarded lots lots of money and the occasional treasure!

Performance optimized!

Fertility comes equipt with eye-candy like Shaders and Distant Horizons - both turned off by default. To compensate for all that added content, this modpack features the best optimizations out there, while also being tweaked as good as possible with configs and settings. Don't believe anybody who claims magical frame rates, but we do our best to offer every hardware the options they can carry!

Multiplayer first!

Fertility is designed to be played together! While you certainly can master the challenges offered alone, things get easier and more fun with friends! Specialize your productions and barter with each other for money or goods! Use Teams and Claims to divide the endless land! Or meet up and chat with Proximity Voice Chat!

VR ready - just activate both ViveCraft mods and go! <3

For the stereoscopic beings out there Fertility comes with Vivecraft installed (but off by default). Immerse yourself in this world and fully dig in to the work of feeding the hungry!

📗 Lore! (Yes, couse we love stories!)

Ah, finally! You packed your little bag, got some sandwiches, a fishing rod and the knife your mother gave you - and off you go! There have been tales of hungry villages all across the land and no decent farm to feed them!

Find your spot on these beautiful islands, build your campo, grow as much stuff as you want and cook it up! Maybe even help out the hungry neighbours? They might offer you more than just a smile!

Fertility is a modpack build around Farmer's Delight, Create and CC:Tweaked. Your journey is spiced up with an extended hunger system and nutritious needs, but also lots of food related items and a focus on automation. You will need to think about setting up small factories and systems to supply you with resources as ore gathering by hand is made a very tedious task.

❓FAQ

• Mining is so slow!
  • This is by design: get better tools or level up your villagers. They will sell you resources, too! Mining by yourself is nerved: you will need better tools to yield more drops from mining. Mechanical drills will have the best output. Further machanical processing will also increase materials.
• I can't find ores!
  • Ore generation is different here, too: all ores are now clumped together and less frequent. So, you will need to search harder but once you find a vein, you will find plenty!
• My crops don't grow fast enough!
  • Also a design choice. You are encouraged to set up bigger farms and tend them properly. In case you want to enhance your farm, think about using rich soil and fertilizer.
• Some of my crops don't grow at all!
  • Crops grow dependent on the current season. In winter most crops will not grow at all.
• My animals don't breed!
  • Animals will not breed in winter.
• Why do I have negative effects all the time?
  • Establish a healthy diet: by mixing up your food, you can get additional positive effects. All food items have nutritional values.
• I don't know where to start!
  • Find a village or set up one yourself. Then, get more villagers!
• I cant find seeds or crops!
  • All crops can be found in the world but might take some time to be discovered. Some just grow in special biomes others just in the nether. Still there are other ways to get seeds! Set up a bounty board with a Seed Market decree or find a wandering trader. You can also find seeds by washing dirt in sluices.
• I have more questions!
  • Read the in-game guide book or join discord for help ;)
