Mo' Structures (NeoForge/Fabric) in All the Mods 10

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

Mo' Structures is a world-generation mod that adds new structures to your world. Think mini-dungeons with lore, dark mazes, floating castles and pillager-filled buildings. It's built around the RPG side of exploring: loot tables, advancements, jigsaw-built structures and bosses that were never used before.^[1]

The project page lists a few of the structures: a Jungle Pyramid, a Villager Market, a Pillager Factory, the Castle in the Sky, a Barnhouse and a Killer Bunny Castle.^[1]

Who it's for

This one is for you if you like finding things while exploring. The mod pitches itself at players who want more to discover without adding new blocks or items to the game. It lets you shape your own survival experience around the structures you choose to hunt down.^[1]

In this pack

The pack ships the NeoForge build, version 1.6.0+1.21.1. It has been in the pack since version 2.25 or earlier. Starting with Minecraft 1.21, the mod requires Architectury API.^[1][2]

Unverified The sources don't show where this mod fits in the pack's progression, including any ATM Star path. They also don't show any quests or an in-jar guidebook for it, so treat it as an exploration extra rather than a required step.

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

Good news: you don't need to craft anything to get started with Mo' Structures. It's a structure mod, so the first step is simply to explore your world and find what it has added.^[1]

The project page describes the mod as adding structures with mini-dungeons and integrated lore. It also lists loot tables, advancements, jigsaws and unused bosses among the tools it uses. The page presents it as a mod for players who want to keep a simple vanilla world with no new blocks or items.^[1]

What to look for

The project page shows pictures of a jungle pyramid, a villager market, a pillager factory, a castle in the sky, a barnhouse and a killer bunny castle. It says you can run through dark mazes, explore floating castles and fight evil pillagers. These are good targets for your first expeditions.^[1]

Before you go exploring

1. Gear up the way you would for any vanilla dungeon crawl, because the page promises fights against pillagers and other enemies.^[1]
2. Head out and look for the structures listed above. The page says the mod is built around loot tables and advancements, so check chests and your advancement screen as you go.^[1]
3. If you ever run the mod outside this pack on 1.21 or later, keep in mind that the project page says it requires Architectury API.^[1]

Unverified There are no confirmed in-pack recipes, quests, guidebook entries or item descriptions for this mod, so there is no verified crafting order to follow. The structure list above comes only from the mod's project page, and I can't confirm which structures generate in this pack or where.

Good news and a heads-up: the sources for this mod show no machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or item automation to learn. Mo' Structures is a structure mod. Its project page describes it as a way to add mini-dungeons and lore-filled structures to your world, and it even pitches itself at people who want to keep a simple vanilla world with no new blocks or items. So the only system worth understanding is where structures can generate.^[1]

The page also says that from 1.21 the mod requires Architectury API.^[1]

How structures pick their biomes

The mod uses a layered setup of biome tags. First come "collections": named groups of biomes such as beaches, deserts, jungles, oceans or caves. Then each structure has its own "has_structure" tag that points at one or more of those collections.^[3][4][5]

The air balloon is a clean example. Its has_structure tag contains only the beaches collection. That collection holds the vanilla beach biome tag, plus optional beach tags from other tag conventions that only count when they exist.^[3][4]

What the collections cover

Most collections mix vanilla biomes with optional entries from other worldgen mods. Those optional entries are marked as not required, so they only matter if that biome actually exists in your world. The deserts collection, for example, is the vanilla desert plus optional extras, and the spooky forests collection is the vanilla dark forest plus optional biomes from several other mods.^[5][6]

Some collections are purely vanilla, which makes them easy to predict:^{[7][8][9][10][11][12][13]}

• End island land: end_highlands and end_midlands.^[7]
• End voids: small_end_islands and end_barrens.^[8]
• Nether basalts: basalt_deltas only.^[9]
• Nether crimson forests: crimson_forest only.^[10]
• Nether souls: soul_sand_valley only.^[11]
• Nether warped forests: warped_forest only.^[12]
• Snowy mountains: snowy_slopes only.^[13]

Caves are covered too. The caves collection includes dripstone_caves and lush_caves, plus optional cave biomes and underground tags from other sources.^[14]

Collections can overlap. Old growth pine taiga and old growth spruce taiga appear in both the giant taigas and giant trees collections, so a structure using either can show up in those biomes.^[15][16]

Forests are split into several collections rather than one big list: regular forests, birch forests, snowy forests and spooky forests, plus an "any forests" collection built on the vanilla forest tag. Which structure uses which of these is set in that structure's own has_structure tag.^{[6][17][18][19][20]}

Mo' Structures is a structure mod, so it has no tier ladder of its own. What you can check is what its chests give you, and the loot tables show a clear low-to-high spread. Everything below comes from the mod's own loot table files, and I only cover the ones I could read.^{[21][22][23][24]}

Early game: farm and food loot

• The barnhouse chest (loot table barnhouse_3) can give Wheat Seeds (weight 6) or Wheat (weight 2). That's it.^[21]
• The mushroom structure chest has only one entry: Brown Mushroom.^[24]

Mid game: the ice tower

The ice tower chest rolls 15 times with 2 bonus rolls. The entries are Iron Ingot (weight 5), Cobweb (weight 2), Bone Meal (weight 2) and Iron Axe (weight 1). Bone also drops in stacks of 1 to 5. It's a handy stop for iron, but nothing here is high tier.^[23]

Late game: the bunny skeleton chest

This is the strongest loot I could confirm, and it has several pools. The first one hands out special items: Saddle and Name Tag (both weight 20), Golden Apple (weight 15) and Enchanted Golden Apple (weight 2, the lowest in that pool). Horse armor is in there too, from iron (weight 15) through gold (weight 10) to Diamond Horse Armor (weight 5). It also has music discs and a randomly enchanted Book.^[22]

The second pool is for materials. Diamond has weight 15, Emerald has weight 10, Iron Ingot has weight 10 and Gold Ingot has weight 5. A Bucket can also show up here.^[22]

The third pool has a fixed number of rolls and is mostly junk. Bone is by far the most common (weight 30, up to 10 per stack), followed by Gunpowder (weight 7) and Rotten Flesh (weight 5).^[22]

Unverified Loot tables for the other structures (for example the castle, jungle temple and pillager treasure chests) were not available to read, so their contents are unconfirmed.

Mo' Structures has been in All the Mods 10 for a long time. It was first included in version 0.32 or earlier, and All the Mods 10 8.2 ships version 1.6.0+1.21.1 (file mostructures-neoforge-1.6.0+1.21.1.jar).^[25]

Notable changes

• Mod 1.5.0+1.21: this release added NeoForge builds for 1.21. That is the release that made the mod available on NeoForge for this Minecraft version.^[26]
• All the Mods 10 4.6: the pack updated Mo' Structures from 1.5.0+1.21 to 1.6.0+1.21.1. This is the update that brought the mod to the version you have in 8.2.^[27]

Unverified The sources I have don't include the mod's own changelog for 1.6.0+1.21.1, so what changed inside the mod in that update is unverified.
