Description from the author on Modrinth

Corruption

Mod by Cooldude1259

WARNING: NO FEATURES ARE COMPLETE!

It is completely fine if you are testing this by yourself, but it is highly recomended not to get onto the server yet, as things WILL change. This is not likely to include worldgen but there may be a huge amount of updates until the mod reaches a finished version, so it is not worth bugging the server owner to update the mod.

Anyway...

Corruption is a mod designed to let a specific user in a server act as a villian of said server for reasons of creating lore for said server.

In the github Repo (wiki link) there will be a guide for the villians on how to use the mod and how to use it in a way that lets people defeat you, for a lore reason without ruining everything.

To manage who the server treats as the villian, a config file needs to be changed server side.

This makes sure that the server owner is actively knowing that the mod exists and who the villian is, so it isnt a suprise.

Current Features

Currently, there are minimal things, but here they are. I am pretty sure that if you look enough and connect the dots, you might understand how this is going to work.

First, we have the corruption skin item.

As you can see, the item has no texture or model, meaning the default model and missing texture are z-fighting with the block.

Currently it only supports grass blocks and stone.
An area on the mod description in the future will show you which blocks are supported to be corrupted, as well as the Mod Extras Page

There are also 2 effects in the mod (so far). Anti Corruption and corruption.

These are intended to be used in potions, but that feature has not been finished yet.

Corruption damages the player or mob of which has the effect.

Anti Corruption Currently does nothing. Anti corruption is designed to be used on the villian player to defeat them. More information will be given out once the feature is complete.

Once again, none of these features are complete, but we are happy for you to try them out, which is why we are releasing the Alpha 0.1.0 build of the mod.

The mod is required on client and server, and Mod Extras is a dependency

Dependencies
This mod has two dependencies:

  • Fabric API (generic dependencie for all fabric mods)
  • Mod Extras - another mod I created, used for applying effects to blocks without permanently damaging the world.

How to install Corruption

  1. This mod is needed on both the server and every player who joins.

  2. Install Fabric for Minecraft 1.21.

  3. Download the .jar file from Modrinth and put it in the mods folder of your .minecraft directory.

  4. Start Minecraft with the Fabric profile.

  5. Easier: in Prism Launcher or the Modrinth App, search for Corruption in your instance's mods and click Install. It adds the loader and the mods it needs for you.
