If you enjoy building in Minecraft, Dawn of Time is the essential mod you need.

You'll find a neatly organized inventory, vertical slabs, numerous mosaics and frescoes, elegant furniture, outdoor plants, lamps, and much more for creating unique builds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you plan to port the mod to older versions?

Our small development team works slowly but efficiently, paying great attention to each block and feature. We prefer to focus on adding new content and keeping the mod up-to-date, so we don't plan to release ports for older versions.

🕸️ How to get silk?

Find mulberries in the flowery forest or taiga. When the mulberry is fully grown, there's a chance a silkmoth will spawn. Kill it to get silk eggs that can be hatched with mulberry leaves in the drying tray. Mulberry leaves can be collected by hitting the base of the plant.

🍇 How to get grapes?

Find wild grapes in the flowery forest. Place the grape seed on a pergola and let it grow. When the grapes turn purple, you can collect them; when they darken, you can collect the seeds.

Does the mod generate structures? Will it generate structures in the future?

The mod only generates a few crops in the wild. It's not intended to generate structures - it's purely a decorative mod.

Is there a place where I can offer help or suggest new ideas to the team?

The main discussion place is Discord. We're recruiting developers, modelers, and builders. We also need help with translation files.
