Towns and Towers in All the Mods 10

Towns and Towers is a world generation mod that adds new structures to explore. It brings new villages, pillager outposts and even new ships, all built to fit into the world while being a bit more detailed than their vanilla counterparts. Many of them are inspired by real-life buildings or architectural styles, so they feel fresh.^[1]

There are over 50 structures in the mod as of its 1.9 update. This pack ships version 1.13.11, and the mod has been in the pack since 2.25 or earlier.^[1][2]

Who it's for

If you like exploring and want more variety than vanilla villages and outposts, this is for you. It adds structures rather than machines or progression items, so there's nothing to unlock and no tech to learn.^[1]

Good to know

• It only adds new structures and does not modify existing vanilla ones.^[1]
• Most structures use vanilla loot tables, plus some custom ones. You still find the usual pillager outpost loot, village profession chests, bells and workstations, along with extras like food and armor.^[1]
• New structures only generate in newly generated chunks, so chunks you've already explored won't change.^[1]
• To find one, use the locate command in the form /locate structure towns_and_towers:[structure_from_list] on 1.19 and newer.^[1]

Unverified Where the mod fits in this pack's progression is unconfirmed. No quests or ATM Star path steps involving it were found in the available sources.

Here's the good news: Towns and Towers doesn't ask you to craft anything first. It's a structure mod, so there's no starter tool or machine to build. Your first steps are about finding its structures, and the project page says it adds new villages, pillager outposts and even new ships.^[1]

The structures are more detailed than their vanilla counterparts but still fit into the world, and many are inspired by real-life buildings or architectural styles. The project page counts over 50 of them as of update 1.9.^[1]

Your first steps

1. Explore in a freshly generated area. The new structures only spawn in newly generated chunks, so ground you've already explored won't have them.^[1]
2. Use the locate command if you don't want to wander. On 1.19 and above it looks like /locate structure towns_and_towers:[structure_from_list], where you swap in a structure name from the mod's structure list.^[1]
3. Open the chests when you arrive. Most structures use vanilla loot tables, so you'll still see things like pillager outpost loot and village profession chests, plus bells and workstations. Some custom loot tables add food, armor and other goodies.^[1]

The mod only adds new structures and doesn't modify the existing vanilla ones.^[1]

Unverified I couldn't confirm any recipes, quests, config options or in-game item descriptions for this mod in this pack, so there are no crafting steps to show here. The project page also only lists support up to 1.20.4, and I couldn't verify how that lines up with this pack's Minecraft version, so check that your /locate command syntax works in your game. This site does hold All the Mods 10's own recipes, read from the pack itself: look the item up in the item browser.

Here's the thing to know up front: Towns and Towers is a world generation mod, not a tech mod. It adds new villages, pillager outposts and ships, so you won't find machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or item automation to learn here. The mechanics that matter are about how and where the structures show up.^[1]

What the mod adds

The structures are a bit more detailed than their vanilla counterparts but still fit into the world, and many are inspired by real-life buildings or architectural styles. The mod's page counts over 50 structures as of its update 1.9.^[1]

The mod only adds new structures. It does not modify existing vanilla structures.^[1]

How generation works

• The mod works serverside, so it is safe to add to an existing world. Keep in mind that the new structures only spawn in newly generated chunks, so areas you've already explored won't change.^[1]
• It is described as compatible with most world generation mods, such as Terralith, BYG and BoP, and with mods that add their own structures or villages, such as Repurposed Structures.^[1]
• Some features from other mods are not currently present. The page names the guards from the Villager Guards mod and certain buildings from Farmer's Delight as examples, and says these are meant to be addressed in the future via datapacks.^[1]

Finding structures

You can find structures with the locate command. For 1.19 and above the page gives the format /locate structure towns_and_towers:[structure_from_list], where you replace the bracketed part with a structure name from the mod's structure list.^[1]

Loot

Most structures use vanilla loot tables for better mod compatibility, plus some custom loot tables so the structures fit into the world. You'll still find pillager outpost loot in outposts and profession chests in villages, as well as bells and workstations. The page also mentions new food, armor and other goodies.^[1]

Unverified Pack-specific details are not confirmed: the sources include no config files, recipes, quests or in-game descriptions for this mod in this pack. The exact structure list, spawn rates and loot contents here are unverified. This site does hold All the Mods 10's own recipes, read from the pack itself: look the item up in the item browser.
