We are excited to announce the release of Britannia_mod 0.1.2 for Ultimacraft!
This patch delivers a major content update focused on mining, decorative housing, and economic immersion—building toward a richer Britannian experience.

Patch Highlights:

Custom Ore Veins
The mining system now supports fully customized ore veins across Britannia. Each region features its own unique distribution of ores, designed to support a dynamic economy and meaningful trade routes.
New Ores Added
This update introduces Verite, Valorite, Shadow Iron, Agapite, Silver, Copper, and Tin (Dull Copper) ores. These resources are distributed throughout the world’s mountain ranges, each with specific rarity tiers and regional availability.
Mining Regeneration System
Mined blocks will now regenerate after 6 hours, maintaining environmental consistency while still rewarding resource gathering. Players can return to previously depleted regions to find refreshed ore veins.
Blacksmith Vendor Fixes
Issues with the Blacksmith merchant’s inventory and pricing behavior have been resolved. The vendor now correctly consumes inventory, refreshes stock based on supply, and calculates prices in accordance with the live economy.
Interior Decorator Tool
Introducing the Interior Decorator—a powerful new tool for home customization. Players can now rotate decor items in-game to perfectly design their homes, inns, or castles.
Housing Decor Items
Two Britannian furniture pieces are now available:
The Magincia Throne, fit for nobles and governors alike
Large and Small Candelabra, perfect for mood lighting in homes or dungeons.
Website Leaderboard Enhancements
The online leaderboard now includes tracking for all commodities, allowing players to view and compare economic activity in real-time. This includes mining, crafting, and trading statistics pulled directly from the game server.
Playguide Expansion
The official Playguide has been expanded with new entries for ores, mining mechanics, housing tools, and updated economic systems. New players can now get up to speed faster, and veterans can dig deeper into mechanics.

Patch 0.1.2 marks a pivotal step toward Ultimacraft’s full living-world economy and regional progression.
From miners to merchants, decorators to defenders of Britannia—there’s something new for every adventurer.

Let us know what you think, and we’ll see you in the mines!

Patch Notice for 0.1.0

We are excited to announce the release of Britannia_mod 0.1.0 for Ultimacraft! This update introduces new NPC merchants, advanced crafting tools, and a dynamic economy system, allowing players to interact with a fully operational blacksmith and trade in refined materials.

Patch Highlights:

- Journeyman Blacksmith
- A new Blacksmith NPC is now available in major towns, offering specialized weapons and tools.
- The Viking Sword is now crafted by vendor and available for trade at the Blacksmith, provided the city has the necessary metal supply. The Blacksmith’s inventory dynamically updates based on the town’s metal reserves, meaning resource management and trading will directly impact the available stock. Transactions are recorded in the game’s economy, with all purchases affecting the city’s metal supply.
- Metal Merchant
- A new Metal Merchant NPC has been introduced, allowing players to sell metal ores and ingots.
- Metal supply levels fluctuate based on sales and blacksmith purchases, ensuring a realistic economy.
- Trade values update dynamically depending on market conditions, similar to the existing Wood and Fish economy.
- Stone Merchant
- Players can now interact with the Stone Merchant, a specialized vendor for various stone types. This NPC buys and sells refined stone, creating a functional stone economy within each town. Stone availability in cities will determine the value and demand for different materials.
- Large and Small Forge Block
- The Large Forge and Small has been added as a functional blacksmithing station.
- The block serves as a Point of Interest (POI) for blacksmiths, meaning villagers can now take on the Blacksmith profession and dynamically work at forges. Future expansions will include custom crafting recipes for refining ores and crafting weapons.
- New Pickaxe
- The UO Pickaxe has been added as a functional mining tool, with a unique mining speed and durability based on material type. This tool will be a staple for resource gathering and future expansion into enhanced mining mechanics.
- Added Commodity Leaderboard to website
- We've introduced a brand-new City Economy Leaderboard, allowing players to track their contributions to the economy in various resource categories!

Patch Troubleshooting Tips:

Verify Your Installation:
Ensure your mod files are updated. Delete any old patches or unnecessary files from your Minecraft directory (default location: C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\mods).
Check Website Sync:
Confirm that your in-game economy data is syncing with the website. If data discrepancies occur, refresh the webpage or relog into the game.
Run a Virus Scan:
Before installing the patch, scan your computer for potential viruses to ensure a clean update.
Reposition Off-Screen Windows:
If any in-game UI elements (like the inventory or merchant menus) are off-screen, reopening them will automatically reposition them within view.
