What is Towns and Towers?

     Towns & Towers is a mod that aims to expand upon the 1. 14 update created by Mojang with new villages, pillager outposts, and even brand-new ships. The structures themselves are a bit more detailed than their vanilla counterparts, but they still fit seamlessly into the world. Not only that but many are inspired by real-life buildings or architectural styles, giving them a fresh new feel. There are over 50 structures added by Towns and Towers so far (as of update 1. 9), so have fun exploring! And remember, it’s not the destination that’s important, but the journey to get there.

     If you wish to see all of the structures our mod adds, take a look at our gallery here.

 

Compatibility

     For a full list of mods that are currently compatible with Towns and towers, please look here.

     The pack should be compatible with most world generation mods, like Terralith, WWOO, BYG, BoP, etc., as well as mods that add also add new structures/villages, such as Repurposed Structures or ChoiceTheorem's Overhauled Villages. However, some features from other mods are not currently present, like the guards from Villager Guards mod or certain buildings from Farmer's Delight for example. This will be addressed in the future via a series of datapacks, which will implement features from those mods into ours.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is it safe to update Towns and Towers to a newer version?

     In general yes. Just note that sometimes when we update a few things get changed, so there might be a bit of console spam. If any serious problems arise because of that, let us know. And, as always, make backups. Better be safe than sorry.

 

2. Is it safe to add Towns and Towers to an already existing world?

     Yep. Just note that the new structures will only spawn in newly generated chunks.

 

3. Is this mod for Forge or Fabric/Quilt?

     Both. We have a universal version for both (now three?) mod loaders.

 

4. How can I locate the new structures?

     For 1. 18. 2: /locate towns_and_towers:

     For 1. 19+: /locate structure towns_and_towers:

     Note that some structures have the exclusives tag added in front. Those structures cannot be located if you only have T&T installed. You also need to have one of the mods that T&T is paired with. For a full list, scroll down below (if I rememb

✅ Pros

  • Over 50 structures means tons of new places to explore and build around.
  • Serverside support means you can add it to your server without clients needing it.

⚠️ Cons

  • For newer versions (1.19.3+), you need to install Cristel Lib as an extra dependency.
  • The mod only supports up to 1.20.4, so if you're on the latest version, you're out of luck.
  • Being a structure mod, it may conflict with other mods that alter world generation.
🎯 Is This For You?

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're on 1.18.2 or 1.19.2, you can install the mod without any extra dependencies, but for 1.19.3+ you'll need Cristel Lib.
  • Since the mod works serverside, you can add it to your server and your friends can join without installing anything on their end.
  • Explore new chunks to find the structures—they won't spawn in already-generated areas, so you'll need to travel to new territory.
