With these words scribbled on the back of a student's exam paper, the English writer and professor J.R.R. Tolkien began a series of books which have enthralled millions and contain within their pages the greatest fantasy universe ever created.
Now, a team of builders of all nationalities and ages, united by their love for Tolkien's works, have embarked on a singularly ambitious project - to recreate Tolkien's Middle-earth at a scale and level of detail never before seen in any video game.
We have combined our knowledge - not only of building, but of geology, botany, history and Tolkien's every word and letter to ensure that this project surpasses any other of its kind.
We have a friendly community of skilled builders, and are always looking for new members! Our community is made up of people from a range of backgrounds, nationalities and ages - united by a love for Tolkien's work.
If you need help installing this modpack, see our guide here.
This modpack is designed for players joining ArdaCraft. The two main content mods are Conquest Reforged and Create, alongside a suite of visual and performance-optimisation mods aimed to make players' experience as smooth as possible.
Although the server is aimed at re-creating Middle-earth, we also have a plots world where anyone can join and try their hand at building using the Conquest Reforged mod. You can also add your friends to your plot to build together!
When you join, you will be given an guidebook which gives you basic information about how to explore our world, claim a plot, and participate in the community. We highly recommend that you join our Discord for announcements, events, project discussions, discourse around Tolkien's work, screenshots of the server, tech support, discussion around film and TV, art, music and more!
Our Discord is also the place where you can apply to join our team, once you've built on our plot world. We look forward to seeing you online!
The ArdaCraft Resource Pack is made by the ArdaCraft team.
ArdaPaths, ArdaRegions, ArdaMobs, ArdaGrass, Arda LODs Downloader, ArdaSettings, and Axiom Overrides were made by the ArdaCraft team.
Xonks-Bliss-ArdaCraft-Settings is our own edit of the Bliss shader pack which changes saturation and shading, as well as providing compatibility with Conquest Reforged blocks. The developer, X0nk, gave us permission to redistribute this here.

Caelum
Thanks to Aj, we now have a custom version of the Caelum mod installed. This adds a variety of fantastic features to the skybox, including:
- Accurate positions for the sun and moon, including the sun getting higher in the sky the further south you go in Middle-earth (works with shaders)
- Accurate star map (not working with shaders at the moment)
- Accurate server date when you press G
This mod will continue to be updated in the future, including adding planets (Eärendil), and a telescope that will allow you to zoom in and see the names of various celestial bodies in English/Sindarin/Quenya.

- Updated paintbrush texture
- Changes made with the paintbrush are pushed to an edit session allowing for undo, redo, masking, and other WorldEdit features.

- Brown water in River biome
- New names for many previously added blocks
- Hanging pig!
MusicTriggers
Added new track for Moria’s West-gate (thanks to @Nolram).
NotEnoughCrashes
This will make it so most crashes exit to the title screen instead of quitting the entire game.
Auth Me
This allows you to re-auth your MC account from the multiplayer screen in-game if your login token is invalidated.
Remove Reloading Screen
This removes the loading screen while you're reloading a resource pack so you can still interact with the game while it loads.
Mouse Tweaks
Mouse Tweaks replaces the standard RMB dragging mechanic, adds two new LMB dragging mechanics and an ability to quickly move items with the scroll wheel.
Controlling
Adds the ability to search for keybinds using their name in the KeyBinding menu, this allows players to easily find a key binding in the menu.
Adds a button that will only show KeyBindings that conflict with each other, which makes it easier to fix them.
