**BlazeandCave's Advancements Pack** is one of the first advancement datapacks ever created and is also one of the largest and most feature-packed. It adds over 900 new advancements to your world so you have some extra challenges to do in your survival world. ## Notable features: ### Over 1000 new advancements! BlazeandCave's Advancements Pack adds over 1000 new advancements to your world, bringing the total up to 1144, which brings numerous new challenges to your survival world or a competitiveness to servers. Some new advancements are inspired by various existing pre-1.12 achievements as well as achievements that are exclusive to the Bedrock or Console editions of Minecraft. Many are purely original ideas of my own or of other people (see extra credits section). **You may find a list of advancements [here](https://bit.ly/3DEOBzY).** ### 16 Advancement Tabs in total! All five of the tabs in vanilla advancements have had many more advancements added to expand upon what was already there, and many new advancement tabs have been added for more specific categories. - **BlazeandCave's Advancements -** Contains a few basic advancements that start you off in a brave new world, as well as all the milestone advancements, which keep track of how many advancements have been obtained in each of the other tabs. - **Mining -** The mining-related advancements from the vanilla tab "Minecraft" have been taken and expanded upon greatly into the "Mining" tab with more advancements relating to each of the different ores and what you can do with them. - **Building -** A brand new tab that is all about crafting and building using various blocks. - **Farming -** The vanilla "Husbandry" tab has been split up into the Farming and Animals tabs. The Farming tab focuses on crops and various plants in Minecraft. - **Animals -** The Animals tab is largely about breeding, slaughtering and taming animals in Minecraft, and fishing. - **Monsters -** A brand new tab that takes some of the monster-related advancements from the vanilla "Adventure" tab and expands upon them greatly with unique advancements and challenges for nearly every monster in Minecraft. - **Weaponry -** A brand new tab that is about weapons, both conventional and unconventional. - **Biomes -** A brand new tab that contains advancements relating to various biomes, including the ocean. - **Adventure -** The vanilla "Adventure" tab has been expanded upon greatly with more advancements relating to exploration, villages, trading, raids, and various structures like the ocean monument and woodland mansion. - **Redstone -** A brand new tab that is all about crafting and using various redstone components. - **Enchanting -** A brand new tab that is all about enchanting items. - **Statistics -** A brand new tab that keeps track of various statistics. - **Nether -** The vanilla "Nether" tab has been expanded upon greatly with more advancements relating to the fiery dimension and the monsters and structures within. - **Potions -** The potion-related advancements from the vanilla "Nether" tab have been expanded upon in this tab containing more advancements relating to many of the different potion effects. - **The End -** The vanilla "The End" tab has been expanded upon greatly with more advancements relating to the dark, barren dimension and the monsters and structures within. - **Super Challenges -** Contains the most difficult advancements in the datapack. It is unlocked upon defeating the Ender Dragon. Many of these test the limits of what can be done in Minecraft. ### Advancement scoreboard There is a built-in scoreboard that will count how many advancements you have obtained so far in your world. Great for seeing your progress or for competing with your friends! ### Item Rewards and Trophies given via functions. Item rewards give you a little bonus for completing many of the advancements, while trophies are special decorative items that are awarded for completing many challenge advancements. ### Cooperative Mode An option that can be toggled on, cooperative mode makes it so that advancements are shared across all players on a world, allowing you to work together to complete advancements. This is best used in worlds with a small number of players that work closely together. ### Teams If you wish to compete in groups, you can join teams and have your scores get added up and contribute to your team. To join a team, use the following command: **/team join bac_team_ ** You can press tab after typing in bac_team_ to see the list of teams. ### Full translation support. All advancements are fully translatable using the BACAP Language Pack, including Spanish, Russian, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Pirate Speak LOLCAT and more.

Troubleshooting and FAQ's

I am aware of a number of issues involving installing advancements, particularly if you try to install them on servers. I am not an expert on servers, but here are a few questions I've been frequently asked and how they were solved: **Why is "X" advancement not working?** Some advancements will break on Spigot and Paper servers. Any server that runs the Advancement Pack must be a vanilla server, or else some advancements may not work. This is due to these servers changing around data that makes the detection for these advancements break. Some examples of these broken advancements may include, but are not limited to: When Piglins Fly, Custom Boss Fight, Trick or Treat, Slenderman, Mollusc Man, Captain Etho, Rock Paper Scissors, This name sounds cooler, I'll be back, Event Horizon, The Beginning, The Perfect Run. **How to turn on/off item rewards and trophies or display the scoreboard:** The config menu lets you do that using the following command: /function blazeandcave:config For more information read its section above. **The config menu won't show up when running the command:** The config menu only shows up if you are opped on a server or have cheats enabled in singleplayer. **The scoreboard is not working even when using the config menu:** Type in these commands in order: /scoreboard objectives add bac_advancements dummy {"text":"Advancements"} /function bc_rewards:update_score /scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar bac_advancements **Rewards or Trophies are not given:** Make sure to check they are enabled on the config screen. By default they are turned on. If you are on a server and are positive they are turned on, this would likely be occurring due to permissions or due to server plugins (e.g. Spigot will almost always screw with this datapack) because, sadly due to the way advancements and functions work, if a non-opped player gets an advancement they may not actually trigger any function rewards. **I lost a trophy! Help!** You can use the following command to give yourself the trophy of a specific advancement back: /function bc_rewards:trophy// **Some advancement tabs (such as the Super Challenges tab) don't show up:** A tab will not show up if you haven't gained any advancements in that tab yet. For example the Super Challenges tab is not unlocked until after defeating the Ender Dragon. **The custom advancements are plain not showing up at all:** If the above don't work, any number of things could be happening to cause this to happen. Try restarting the server or using the /reload command. Remember when placing the advancements into your world's folder, you have to paste the "bac_advancements" folder into the following folder directory: /datapacks. Do NOT copy them into plain /advancements - that's the folder that contains player files (i.e. a list of each player and what advancements they have gotten), not the advancements themselves. If your question is not answered here or my advice doesn't work for you, you could try messaging your problem on my Discord and you may be able to get help. Or try searching on Google for advice on how to fix these problems. I cannot guarantee compatibility with any other datapack, or with mods. This datapack modifies the vanilla advancements so if any other datapack(s) you attempt to use alongside this datapack relies on or also modifies the vanilla advancements there may be compatibility issues.
