Lord of the Rings Mod: Renewed - FULL Q&A W/MOD TEAM

[@goatbern510]

I seriously love the fact that the team still supports and develops this mod, you guys are doing great work!

[@-104th-cmdwolffe6]

Please make those sick shields working like a normal one.

[@mrmarmolerox]

maybe it should work as a skin that overwrites the shield

@@mrmarmolerox it should be crafted for my opinion.

[@nurithegolden5755]

Add Horse meat. If there's a Nomad faction we need Horsemeat and Horsemilk like Kumis. Would be cool and quite accurate. If you need Horse food designs and drinks. Kazakh Food has a lot of variety :D

[@-104th-cmdwolffe6]

Yeah. That reminds me of the Wainriders/Balchoth. They really need to add stuff for them. And for the Avari Elves of the East. There are no waypoints who discripe a city for the Avari Elves.

I'm glad you guys are updating this. This mod is a beautiful piece of work and if it was to stop I think many people would be sad

[@pd7961]

I remember playing this mod a long time and I love it, it will always be remembered by me as a amazing mod

[@ianrivero8512]

Like seriously this is my favorite mod ever. I am so excited its finally being updated

[@harripotta165]

I want to say thank u for creating this amazing mod

[@frggdeckkkydexhhgg]

It's just dumb that in order to get a fruit you need to destroy the tree. There's already a chestnut tree in the mod that drops conkers naturally. Why not to make fruit trees work in the same way?

[@gbaesthetics2275]

Jaŭhen Žuk What’s better is that you could just right click on the leaves and you yield the fruit.

[@frggdeckkkydexhhgg]

@@gbaesthetics2275 a lot of players actually asked Mevans to make fruit trees work like berry bushes, but he always said that he's satisfied with fruit trees mechanics. The variant with chestnut trees seems obvious for me. I'm surprised that the mod team hasn't come up with this idea yet. Probably they just forgot about the chestnut trees lol +My idea seems more balanced as for me, because the player cannot affect the process. I mean you can use bonemill on berry bushes and get unlimited amount of berries, but conkers drop naturally

[@dayneboudreaux8371]

@@frggdeckkkydexhhgg I agree just look at pam's harvestcraft -there is a way to make it work.

[@AlexDulay]

I thought y’all forgot about this mod😭 thank you for supporting it WE LOVE IT

[@BaccarWozat]

I saw lapis and was all excited, but then I realized you're in a vanilla world because you were fighting monsters.

[@tora9915]

Thanks so much for the updates! Be sure to stay safe!

[@-104th-cmdwolffe6]

We need more eastern factions - now (I do not demand anything, I only wish that there was something in the mod like the Avari elves and the Red Mountain Dwarves, Balcoth/Wainrides etc.) At least 1 of those mentoined factions would be so satisfying.

[@rocketlad7403]

Red dwarves

[@jameseld54]

Really great amount of information here, so glad that this mod is still getting huge support

[@MrChancebozey]

The key to the original mod was emersion. To retain this value all structures must be an included priority. People will love your passion for this project as it will be reflected in it's results. :)

[@forsyth5793]

Man, I take a sort break and I miss this!

[@marcjuguilon6050]

Would you add all the structures in the LOTR mod or would it take too much data to do so? Edit: Structures such as the tower of mordor, minas tirith, and hornburg.

[@aigenproductions6]

Great video! I hope that the dwarves get more diverse units like dwarves of the Iron Hills.

[@rocketlad7403]

Dwarves of the Red Mountains hello?

[@aigenproductions6]

Titus Quintius yes but Durin’s Folk could have a little more diversity. Either way I love the mod!

[@korvangray7107]

Will Saruman be less glitchy?

[@TheSmileBC]

Saruman works exactly as intended :D

[@dayneboudreaux8371]

No magic in Lotr? What about the wizards? Saruman,Gandalf,Radagast, Alatar and Pallando?

[@TOWER_ACTUAL]

When will u be able to play on 1.15

[@bornkinggamer3347]

Wait are you serious? You guys didn't call Gandalf by his name for copyright reasons? If the Tolkien estate is giving you trouble surely you're screwed as the whole map is copyrighted. Why is Gandalf different?

[@TheSmileBC]

It's a bit too complicates to elaborate on in KZbin comments, but all I can really say is that Copyright, IP, fan art laws and algorithms are incredibly tricky, specific, and weird.

[@bornkinggamer3347]

@@TheSmileBC Interesting, thanks for the quick reply. Is this what will happen in the future for all the characters?

[@matjp99]

Red dwarves for life

[@rocketlad7403]

[@atroxmanibus6349]

will the 1.7.10 version continue to be updated?

[@ilililil490]

Doubt it since the forge support will be soon withdrawn.

[@alwyndsouza1067]

No it won't be

[@alwyndsouza1067]

They have made this clear at the wiki

[@doodle4658]

is there something wrong because the villages arent loading for me like they arent there when i fast travel to them.

[@TheSmileBC]

They aren't included yet in the Renewed mod. It's still being developed. Once we start adding faction content, structure generation will also be added.

[@GrimmSmile]

for the mount issue on servers , an easy fix would just be adding the "chunk gen limiter" mod to the server with the lotr mod , tho cant remember if the mod is available for 1.15.2 , its definitely not available for 1.7.10 but what it does is limit the chunk generation for every player to 2 (or a configurable number in the config file) I have private modded servers where even when giving them 8gigs of ram will still tend to rubberband and lag in general but with the chunk gen limiter its like night and day. Makes the server run almost perfectly.

[@directtestercoversxd3190]

[@Randomdudefromtheinternet]

Stupid question: Are there any official servers of this mod I could join?

[@zzorken7153]

Yes, the mod has an official server. The IP is lotr.g.akliz.net

[@alexps6522]

Not just an official server, in the main fandom web u have a servers section: lotrminecraftmod.fandom.com/wiki/Servers

[@Mihajloaleksandrov]

I would really love if they make helms deep and many other strutctures

[@N4kras]

Great video!

[@SomeKindaSpy]

I don't really like that there's only one type of gate.

[@killercyclone16_4]

? There's many types of gates. My question about adding more was because the faction I play as on the server doesn't have one, but others like gondor do have a separate gate specific to their faction. EDIT: My question at 30:30.

[@galacticboy2210]

Keep up the good work

[@SomeBlueStuff]

How do you start off in this mod? I got a server with a friend today for it and was expecting the grey wizard to appear or something but had no luck

[@turtl4083]

I love the 1.15 version so far, i hate that i Cannon spawn in for example ( helms deep ext)

[@qq-lw2vp]

zero dislikes. that's what i like.

[@RandaleBittle]

So the LOTR is being ported into the newer version?

[@LOTRMinister]

Yes.

[@lazarjutub]

will i need to start a new world if i switch to new version

[@TheSmileBC]

>> Will it be compatible with my 1.7.10 worlds? Eventually - yes*. At first - NO. Do not try to load your 1.7.10 worlds in 1.15! Not only will most of the content be missing, but much of the save format - especially how blocks and block sub-types, and items in inventories, are saved - is completely different. Because of this, 1.15 is incapable of loading modded 1.7.10 worlds, unless those mods use Mojang's DataFixers library to tell the game how to transform the old save data. And this data wizardry is what we'll work on once the 1.15 version has all the matching blocks, items, and entities. We know that it will be extremely important for more than a few servers out there! But we have to add all the physical content first. * At the moment we don't know for certain if this can be done, simply because we haven't tried yet. But there's no reason to doubt it. Although lots of mods that updated from older to newer versions can't load old worlds, that's presumably because those mods didn't attempt to include a DataFixer - it's something you have to specifically program, and it is a tricky process, from what I've seen, but it does seem entirely capable of being adapted to a mod with some effort. Suffice to say that we will make an extraordinary effort to ensure it works, so don't panic.

[@bradleywoods3742]

Have you guys thought about doing orc variants? Not new types of orcs just changing the shapes and skin colours of current orcs to include a greater variety without too much effort and make the world more immersive.
