Kronspire (Theo) · Minecraft 1.7.10 Mod Developer & Modder

Who I am

I've wanted to program since I was a kid. I'm a creative person and a bit of a perfectionist, and about a year ago I finally started learning properly: Java, Python, JavaScript, HTML and CSS, plus a little C++. As an independent mod developer (dev) and modder, I'm loving every bit of it, and lately I've been getting into graphic design too.

I've been a fan of the LOTR Mod since the versions before 1.7.10, and for about three years I've been working on PakPacman's LOTR project. It's a passion project, and being part of that community is a blessing.

The Pacman LOTR Discord is where the modpack gets played and where my stuff gets tested. People report bugs, suggest features, share their battles and builds, and help each other get the pack running. Making things for people who play them is the best part of all this.

I do all of it in my free time, next to my job.

What I want to build

I love Minecraft and I love Lord of the Rings, and the LOTR Mod already puts the two together. I want to take that further and bring the books and films to life even more. Mevans built something special, and I'd like to carry that work on: a game you can keep coming back to, with the bigger things people want on multiplayer servers. Wars, sieges, raids, diplomacy, building your own settlements, RPG elements, and server-side mods that tie it all together.

How it works

A peek under the hood, no modding knowledge needed.

It plugs into the LOTR Mod

New factions and features hook into the LOTR Mod's own systems for alignment, NPCs, quests and the map instead of running next to them. That's why they feel like they were always part of the game.
Getting mods to get along

1.7.10 is over ten years old, and big modpacks mix mods that were never made to run together. A lot of my work is making them share one pack, like raising the limit on how many blocks and items a pack can have.
Your world comes first

Minecraft saves everything in your world by name. Rename something without care and it vanishes from people's saves, so when I rename anything, the old name keeps working too.
Made for multiplayer

The bigger systems, like conquest and claims, run on the server, so everyone playing sees the same war, the same borders and the same map.

Commissions

I take commissions for custom mods, and for Minecraft textures if you need art. Everything I put out publicly is free and stays free.

Modding takes a lot of hours, and I fit them in around my job, so commissions and support on Ko-fi really help. They're what let me keep putting that time in.

To ask about a commission, email me at contact@kronspire.com, or send a tip on Ko-fi and message me there.
