[1.5_01]Millenaire - NPC Village Mod
All Credits goes to this Thread
Millénaire is a new mod, in early alpha, that aims to "fill" the Minecraft world a little by adding pre-generated villages to it, with a loose 11-th century Norman theme to them. Those villages will appear occasionally in newly-generated areas, with villagers of different kind working. You can trade with them, helping them develop their village and getting easy wood and bread as well as cider out of it. Think of it as a mix between MineColony and Builders.

Older updates:
Type of villagers
There are currently seven types of villagers:
- Farmers, who grow crops in the fields around their house, and bring the resulting wheat back to their house chest.
- Lumbermen, who chop trees, plant new trees with saplings they get from destroying leaves, and gather cider apples from leaves as well. They put the wood and apples they gather in their house chests.
- Wives, who have the most complex work: taking resources from their husbands' work to the various public buildings, making bread from wheat, making cider from cider apples, trading with the player and building new constructions.
- Children, born at night, and which grow up to become adults when bread is available and new houses are built.
- Guards that patrol the village
- Priests that visit the church (and the tavern...)
- Smiths, which makes Norman tools in the forge
Expansion of the village
The main "aim" of the villagers is to improve their village. There are six initial villagers, but their number will grow as they have children and build new houses. They can also build new types of buildings and improve existing ones. For this they need building materials: wood, cobblestone, glass and stone. The first they can get themselves, the rest only through trade with the player. A complete village currently includes a bakery, a tavern, a church, fountains, a presbytery, a guard tower and an (ugly) castle, plus custom buildings if advanced.
Advanced village, with all the default buildings as of 0.2.2
Trade with the player
There are three locations at which the player can trade with the villagers: their Town Hall, the bakery and the tavern (when built):
- Town Hall (present at start): you can sell wood, stone, cobblestone, iron and glass (plus extra blocks at time). Payment made in deniers, a special item. You can also buy wood there, and the "village wand".
- Bakery (when built, requires only wood, so normally they can do it without help): buy bread.
- Tavern (when built, requires glass, so only after you've sold enough to the villagers): buy cider and in upgrade taverns calva. Cider and calva can be used mltiple times and give back health.
To trade, go to one of the locations in question and stand near the chests. If no woman is around one will arrive shortly. Right-click on her to bring up the trade screen.
Hold the left shift key while clicking on a trade good in the trade screen to trade 8 by 8 or the left control key to trade 64 by 64.
Finding a village
Since 0.1.4, the easiest way to find a village is to press the V key. If a village is nearby, it will display its name, the distance to it and the general direction. Most new worlds should have villages near the spawn point. If you can't find one at all, check in the world with the seed b. If there are none there, there is an issue with the mod install.
Creating a new village: the Village Wand
With enough deniers, you can buy a "village wand" from the Town Hall of a village. When used on a obsidian block, it will attempt to generate a new village around the block. Warning: using a village wand is dangerous, as the village can end up being built on top of you, killing you if the ground level goes up. Don't use it you can't afford a respawn...
Compatibility / installation
Millénaire is compatible with Minecraft 1.5.1 single-player only.
Millénaire uses ModLoader 1.5v3 and should be compatible with all other ML 1.5v3 mods as long as they do not use block ID 126. To install it, first install ML 1.5v3, then copy in the minecraft.jar the class files, the gui and the mod folders. Then place the "buildingplans" folder directly in the minecraft folder (alongside bin, saves etc.). Millénaire requires quite a lot of CPU on top of the regular game, especially when generating new areas, so is not recommended for computers where the regular game lags.
Known issues
- When reloading a village, sometime two women will end up building the same thing
- Buildings should face the Town Hall, but often don't
- Occasionally pathing issues will cause a CPU-spike
- Ladders and stairs sometime not placed properly
Credits
- Razulra, cubex3 and TheDoctorMouse for skins
- Nandonalt and karahan : some buildings
- The MCP team, without whose work I would not have attempted this mod
- The #risucraft and #mcp-modding channels, and specifically _303, ZeuX and ProfMobius, for saving me a lot of time with timely help
- MineColony and Builders, for inspiration and useful examples of modding Minecraft

Before installing, make sure your saves are backed-up. I make no guarantee Millénaire won't damage your saves. Also, future releases might not be compatible with current villages.
