You can craft planks, bark, stairs, slabs, fences and fence gates. blocks from it. More features will be added in future.

Fir stairs, bark, log, planks, fence and fence gate.

Cherries are new trees generating in cherry flower forests. Their wood can be used as any other type of wood. If you shear their leaves you can get cherry berries.

Cherry wood.

New items

Food

This mod adds lots of new food items. There are wines, cakes, fruits, meats and some vanilla foods have changed recipes.

Example of how to make salted meat.

Bacon is made from three salted porkchops.

Crafting recipe for flour.

Pastry. It is default ingredient for lot of baked stuff.

Bread is made from three pastries.

Recipe for Sachertorte.

Now you can cut bread into three loafs.

Magic

This mod also adds new magic books and items to minecraft. Magic books are similar to enchanted books, however they are used not to enchant weapons, but to magically change the environment. There are around 15 new magic books in this mod. Some are used to summon bosses. Those cannot be crafted and must be found. There are also some special magic books that cannot be crafted and must be obtained by killing mobs or looting chests. Those which can be crafted are crafted on new workbench called "Writer's Desk". It can be found in ruins in either frozen tundra or volcano biomes. Recipes can be viewed in-game on writer's desk, so I will not show them all here. But there is one common item used in all recipes and that is Guide to Magic and Advanced Guide to Magic. These two items can be obtained by trading with wizard villager, wandering wizard or bartering with pillagers in exchange of rubies(yes you can now barter with pillagers if you are o their side). These guides are not lost after you use them in crafting recipe and after crafting of the book, they will return to your inventory. They have same texture s books so it is easy to confuse them with books. They are always used in middle of every recipe.

Because of magic books being very powerful, there is also a danger connected with them. That is the Specter. Specter is ghost-like creature teleporting around destroying, making terrible sounds Killing you, summoning monsters and such evil things.

How is the Specter summoned?

Specter can be rarely summoned by magic books that can change the time of day or by the "random"magic book that executes random magic.

How to know i've accidentaly summond the Specter?

Water will start freezing even if he is in hot biomes. He will change all cobblestone to mossy and all planks to jungle planks. He will destroy light sources and windows. Sometimes you may see a ghostly figure looking like hreobrine but don't worry it's just a Specter. You will also hear footsteps and ambient sound randomly, invisible creature will open doors and even attack you!

How to prevent it?

Villager female priests and wizards have abilities to destroy specters. So to prevent such a disaster happening do this:

1. If you like to change the time of a day by magic book, or want to use random magic book do it far away from your base, in company of villager female priests or wizards.
2. After executing it, run away so Specter (if he will be summoned) won't be interested in you and will be easier for priests and wizard to destroy.

From left to right: Gemtrader, Cook, Blacksmith, Goldsmith, Enchanter, Wizard, Miner, Lumberjack, Money Exchanger, Baker, Rancher.

Female villagers

Female villager don't have trades. Their function is to breed them with new villager professions or to use them as a delivery system. How does that work? Right click on them and their inventory will be opened. Put things like food or emeralds into their inventories and they will share them with entire village. Why is that important? More of this items villagers have, more they are willing to breed. Villagers can also regenerate their health if they have some food in their inventory. You can also pick things up from female villagers inventory.

It is hard to overlook thems because they are 4 blocks tall and their health bar will be displayed same as withers or ender dragons. They have 200 health points and they deal 24 damage to you. Also their voices are terrible. Best way to kill them is to push them by your shield off the cliff or into ravine. They don't have fall damage so i probably will not kill them but they will not be dangerous to you anymore (of course if you will not fall into ravine with them).

Ghosts are spooky mobs spawning in ghostly biomes. I will not tell you everything about them but you shall not forget to believe into people that do not exist.

Now every illager will stop attacking yo but villagers will. Doing this has advantages (you will be on stronger side), but also it has disadvantages (you will not be able to trade with villagers).
