Soul Forest Mod 1.9.75

[1.7.10] Soul Forest 1.9.75 (Ores, Vines, Dimension, Mobs And more!!)

There is a wiki available for this mod (Soul Forest Wiki) to explain everything in detail including images. This is still Work In Progress.

This is my first mod. But i can say that it is becoming quite a big mod.
So far it adds 29 new ores, where 6 of those generate in the overworld, and the rest generates in the new dimension called Soul Forest. In this Soul Forest Dimension you will find Laterite Grass & Dirt, Porphyry, Slate and Bauxite, my custom tree which is called the grape-tree (more trees to come). There are already some different biomes with different mobs in them aswell.

On these grape trees (I know grapes don't grow on trees, but who cares Its an alternate universe) you will find 6 types of vines (Baneberry, Blueberry, Blackberry, Cranberry, Razzberry, Raspberry, Strawberry).The world is a giant underground world with a dark-green fog color, having large pools of water at the bottom and large patches of grass on the middle-top.

To get to this dimension you will have to create a portal (same frame as the nether portal frame) but instead of obsidian you use Silver Blocks and to activate it you lit it with a Soul Lighter, like you would normally do with flint and steel.

This mod adds about 12 new tool sets and 2 tiers above diamond, more information about that on the wiki.
Also this mod adds 7 new armor sets. It also includes a couple of new weapns where one of them is The Frost Wand, which shoots frost shards (using them as ammo).
I have put a lot of work in this mod, and ANY ideas are welcome. To see my to-do list scroll down to the "To do list".

There is a gemcutter where you use a bucket of polishing liquid and a bunch of polishing towels to clean the uncut versions of the gems. As a result you will get nice clean versions.

It now also includes a boss (The Ice Queen) and a mini-boss (King Kotek) both can be summoned using an item. Additionally you will need to build an altar to summon The Ice Queen as shown in one of the pictures above.

Recipes:
There is this very neat mod called Not Enough Items (NEI) that lets you see all the recipes and usages for a certain item, so how to create it and what to use the item for. I have used the API of this mod to be able to also see the recipes of my mod so if you find it hard to figure out the recipes (cause it is hard) I suggest you install this mod along with my mod to learn about this mod with ease!

To use NEI you also need the core mod (called CodeChickenCore or CCC) to be in your mods folder.
You can get both of these on the NEI mainpage.

Special thanks to BansaiKiwi for making some of the awesome textures (the re-textured storage blocks for example)
Special thanks to MamiyaOtaru for helping me to fix the problem that i had since a month ago (i had not much time to look into it as i had to deal with important stuff for school).

Mod History:
Current version: 1.9.75 (minecraft 1.7.10!!!)

Latest Release information:

Changes for 1.9.75 : Hotfix

Latest Release information:

A small but important update, it seemed that Uranium was still unminable (as its mining level was set to 5 (Firyised, which can only be obtained in the Soul Forest dimension which you need Uranium for to get to.).

- Fixed Uranium mining level to be 4 (Steel or Cobalt)
- Fixed Gemmeration table removing enchantments from the weapon. It is now possible to repair a weapon with enchantments, but only if you are using a fully charged amulet stone.

Please report any errors, glitches or alike as soon as you see one so I can fix it right away!
Also if you want to show off something amazing you made, don't be afraid to share so I can post it (pictures, mod showcase or anything else)!!!

Enjoy!!
