This datapack aims to recreate the classic pre 1.14 Minecraft villages.
The datapack comes in 4 different versions:
- Classic Villages: Restores villages to their classic, pre-update design.
- Classic Villages (Gravel Paths): Same as Classic Villages but with gravel paths instead of the newer path blocks.
- Classic Villages (Workstations): Classic villages with additional workstations and features like camels in desert villages and beds in houses.
- Classic Villages (Workstations and Gravel Paths): Combines both gravel paths and the added workstations/features of the previous version.
Known Issues:
- Zombie villages generate vanilla villages.
- All village houses are 1 block too far from the streets. (I didn't find a good way of fixing this)
- Houses will never spawn mirrored.
