DESCRIPTION (Compatible with 1.21 to 1.21.5)


From MC 1.21 onwards, you no longer receive the bad omen effect instantly after killing an illager captain. Instead, an Ominous Potion is dropped, which must be drunk to get the effect. While this adds quality to gameplay, it is illogical from a lore perspective, as it implies that, illagers need your consent to raid a village. Using this datapack, it becomes possible to recapture the thrill of facing the consequences of your actions, and hence gives the player an instant Bad Omen effect upon killing the Illager Captain.


INSTALLATION GUIDE

  • Go to your saves folder located here on Windows:
C:\Users\(your name)\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\saves

Put the datapack file (.zip) in the datapacks folder, and while in game, run /reload. Manually reloading the world also works.

ADMIN COMMANDS

  • To open configuration menu, type /function toggles:classicomen


UNINSTALLATION GUIDE

  • Open the world where you have installed this datapack.
  • Type /function uninstall:classic_bad_omen


OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

  • You can still find and use ominous potions in trial vaults
  • If you are unable to stack 2 or more Ominous Banner/Ominous Bottles, then throw both of them on ground and pick them up after they merge together.

Would it be possible in the data pack to have an option/gamerule that both enforces classic bad omen, but still drops the potions?

We're playing a quasi-RP server and want the non-consensual battles at settlements, but also want to be able to use dropped potions in a trial chamber, or to deliberately trigger raids at locations for RP purposes.

I have released a new version of the datapack. This will make stacking raid farms work. I have created a guide which I will paste it down here.

Okay so the concept is,
  1. You will have to use this farm only https://youtu.be/D_mmAJtbL1g .
  2. To create raid loops, you cannot use autoclicker because it has a chance to expire a raid. So you have to manually control the raid.

To control and loop a raid, you will need to ensure 2 things:
  1. First, when you come closer to Stacking Raid farm, your Bad Omen effect will be replaced with Raid Omen effect. Eventually, you will see the "Raid Omen" effect icon blinking/fading away (the effect icon only blinks/fades away when there are less than 10 seconds left for the effect to expire). So when you see the "Raid Omen" effect icon blinking, you have to make sure not to hit the armor stand at all and stay still. The reason is, there is a very small chance that you can pause the raid permanently by hitting the armor stand at the exact time when Raid Omen Effect is 10 milliseconds away from expiry. So ensure not to hit armor stand when raid omen effect icon is blinking.
  2. When you see the Raid bar at the top of your screen no matter if it is recharging or not, you have to do only one thing. Hit the armor stand only once with the sword. After that, wait until you hear the last piston move. Once the last piston moves, the raid bar will disappear, and eventually, you will hear raid horn. If the raid bar does not disappear after the last piston movement, repeat this process. If you fail to make the raid bossbar disappear, you will then have to go all the way back to pillager outpost to get bad omen.
  3. If both Raid Omen effect icon is blinking as well as Raid bar is appearing on top, you should do the 2nd step.
  4. To safely stop the raid farm, ensure that you do not have Raid Omen/Bad Omen effect. Now, if you do not see raid bossbar, you can just leave the farm alone and the illagers will despawn. If there is a raid bossbar, make it disappear using 2nd step and wait for the raid horn sound and leave.

Best datapack ever. It even makes more sense.

Killing a captain deserves a punishment. The punishment is a Bad Omen effect, not a bottle which can give you punishment. It is now more like, "drink this potion to get punished". Hell no!

Bad Omen effect represents "You have killed a Patrol Captain. You will be watched and followed by high amount of illagers from the back. They will wait for you to go back to your hometown(village). Once they get to know about your hometown (like you enter a village), they start sending forces to destroy your house, destroy you, and destroy your neighbours (villagers)."

The Ominous potion does not even make any sense. Thank you for this datapack.
