HARD NEW

# HARD NEW — Technological Evolution and Hardcore Survival Welcome to **HARD NEW** — a monumental project for Minecraft 1.21.1 on the NeoForge platform. This build is designed for those who find standard survival games a child's play, and have long since mastered traditional technological mods. HARD NEW completely rewrites the rules of the game, transforming a block-mining simulator into a deep, hardcore experience, integrating advanced engineering, realistic physics, harsh climates, and a vibrant, responsive society. --- ## Key Focuses and Features of the Build ### Industrial Engineering and Full-Fledged Aviation Technological progress in HARD NEW isn't just about crafting advanced workbenches. It's about creating massive kinetic systems and logistics chains based on the **Create** ecosystem. * **Create Aeronautics:** Forget about standard limitations. Build fully-fledged airships, flying fortresses, and cargo ships from any blocks. This mod brings true flight physics, mass, and inertia to the game. * **Industrial Add-ons:** *The Factory Must Grow (tfmg)* module adds large-scale production, smelting furnaces, and heavy chemical processing. Establish crude oil production and refining with *Diesel Generators*, and generate megawatts of power with *New Age*. ### Space Program The Earthly world is only the first stage of your development. This pack includes the **Creating Space** mod, which unlocks the full-fledged space race. Design and build multistage rockets, calculate resources, enter orbit, and explore other planets for unique materials unobtainable on Earth. ### Living Civilization and City Building Villages in HARD NEW are no longer a collection of faceless NPCs. * **Intelligence and Sociality:** Thanks to the combination of *Minecraft Comes Alive (MCA)* and *TownTalk*, each villager becomes a fully-fledged individual with their own character, history, and relationship system. You can communicate with them, hire them as guards, or even accompany them on long expeditions. Advanced guards from *Guard Villagers* ensure settlement protection. * **MineColonies:** If standard villages aren't enough for you, lead your own colony. Build cities, assign workers (miners, builders, farmers), manage resources, and defend your holdings from raids. ### Uncompromising Survival and Anatomy The world around you has become truly hostile. The environment will punish any carelessness. * **Thermoregulation and thirst:** The *Cold Sweat* and *Thirst Was Taken* mods will force you to adapt to the weather. Build insulated shelters, sew warm clothing, protect yourself from heatstroke, and maintain sources of clean drinking water. * **Zone Medicine:** Forget the classic health bar. The *First Aid* system divides the character's body into zones (head, torso, limbs). Each part has its own health pool. A broken leg will slow you down, and a serious head injury will be fatal. Coordination in combat becomes vital. * **Devastating Elements:** Dynamic weather from *Weather2* brings storms, gusty winds, and devastating tornadoes that can destroy your structures. The changing seasons are controlled by *Serene Seasons*. ### Endless Horizons and Next-Gen Graphics * **Distant Horizons:** Revolutionary technology that allows the world to be rendered hundreds of chunks ahead using simplified LOD models. You'll be able to see distant mountain ranges and space launch pads without a critical performance drop. * **Optimization:** This colossal amount of simulation runs on a modern graphics stack (*Sodium, Iris, ImmediatelyFast, Lithium, FerriteCore*), guaranteeing a stable frame rate while using complex, realistic shaders. * **Co-op:** For perfect interaction with friends, the pack features positional voice chat (*Simple Voice Chat*), which broadcasts sound taking into account distance and obstacles. --- ## Important technical information and system requirements This build performs a huge amount of parallel calculations: from calculating the physics of flying ships to simulating the lives of hundreds of NPCs and rendering temperature maps. Please read the requirements before running. > ### Recommended specifications: > * **Dedicated memory (RAM) in the launcher:** Strictly **at least 12–16 GB**. > * **Total system RAM:** Preferably **32 GB** or more. > * **Strong recommendation:** It is strongly recommended to run the server on a **dedicated server**. Playing in local host mode (mixed client-server) on a single PC may cause micro-freezes during chunk generation and automatic factories. Separating the calculations between the server and client will ensure the smoothest possible gameplay.
