BadWolfMC Gamma

BadWolfMC Gamma is the third server in the BadWolfMC Network and features our magical worlds. It was willed into being at 10:00am on Wednesday October 24, 2018.

Gamma will have storylines, quests, and other RPG elements over time.

Resource Pack

Gamma requires a custom resource pack (RP), and by default you will be prompted to allow the server to download it automatically for you (recommended). The RP is relatively small, about 4mb, and should only take a few moments to install the first time you log in. Thereafter you will not need to download the RP again unless it changes or you remove it from your computer. However, you will still experience a momentary pause every time you log into Gamma as the RP loads. This pause is normal. Download and load times will vary based on your internet connection and computer. If you regularly experience difficulty loading the pack you can download the latest version as a standalone RP by clicking here. Please note that this is a customized version of the RP made specifically for BadWolfMC -- similar versions from other sources will not work.

This custom resource pack is intended to go on top of your favorite resource pack (or the default). It changes items that are (for the most part) not obtainable in vanilla Minecraft, allowing you to keep the look you prefer. We highly recommend either allowing the automatic installation or downloading the standalone pack since otherwise the Gamma experience will be very odd indeed.

Game Play

Gamma's Magic gamemode is quite different from what players have grown accustomed to on our Alpha and Beta servers. Most commands in Gamma have been disabled and are instead replaced by spells which are learned and improved over time by use and advancing through the game.

Your First Wand

The first thing players should do upon spawning in Gamma is to collect the pieces for and craft their first wand. This process is facilitated by a quest given by the mayor in the Town Hall. Upon crafting their first wand, players will have three spells in their wand inventories: Magic Missile, Recall, and Phase.

• Magic Missile is your basic offensive and defensive spell, which increases in power and range as the spell is leveled up. Over time it will likely replace most uses of both sword and bow.

• Recall is your basic warp spell. By default players only have access to the "Camelot" (spawn) warp, but can unlock other warps by visiting those locations on the map. Recall somewhat replaces "/back" functionality (which is disabled) and, as the spell is leveled up, will add the ability to return to your last death location and to add a marker that functions as an extra mobile home. Please note that the usual Residence and /homes command-based behavior persists on Gamma.

• Phase is similar to Recall but has one very important function: it allows you to phase through dimensions to the parallel world of uolɐʌ∀.

uolɐʌ∀

Much like BadWolfMC Alpha, resource gathering on Gamma is prohibited in the main world (Avalon) and is instead limited to the world on "the other side": uolɐʌ∀. uolɐʌ∀ can be accessed by using the Phase spell and contains increased levels of magical mobs and is also patrolled by artificial life forms made up of blocks called "Automata" that run variations of Conway's Game of Life. Like on Alpha, all raiding and mining should be done on uolɐʌ∀.
