Advancement Plaques Mod FAQ

19 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I open the Advancement Plaques config screen?
Open the mod list from the main menu or pause screen, select Advancement Plaques, and click the config button. From there you can adjust position, distance, and which advancement types are shown.
Why aren't my advancement plaques showing up at all?
Check that the advancement type you just earned is actually enabled in the config, since tasks, goals, and challenges can each be toggled separately. Also make sure the plaque position isn't set so far off-screen that it renders outside your view.
How do I move the plaques to the bottom of the screen?
In the config screen, change the position setting from top to bottom. You can then fine-tune the distance value to control how far the plaque sits from the screen edge.
Can I stop task advancements from popping up and only see goals and challenges?
Yes, the config lets you toggle each advancement type independently. Disable tasks and leave goals and challenges enabled to only see the more significant notifications.
Do advancements from other mods work with this mod?
Yes, Advancement Plaques hooks into the vanilla advancement system, so any mod that registers its advancements normally will display plaques too. If a modded advancement isn't showing, check that its type is enabled in your config.
How do I make my own plaque textures with a resource pack?
Create a resource pack that overrides the mod's plaque texture files in the assets folder, matching the existing file paths and dimensions. Once enabled, the mod will use your textures instead of the defaults.
Where can I find resource packs that change the plaque look?
Resource packs like Embellished Stone are made specifically for this mod and can be applied like any other resource pack. Just enable them in your resource pack list alongside the mod.
Does this mod hurt performance or cause lag?
The mod only renders a plaque when an advancement is earned, so its performance impact is negligible during normal play. If you notice stuttering, it's more likely from other mods or resource packs.
Can I change how long the plaque stays on screen?
The config includes a duration setting that controls how long each plaque remains visible. Increase it if you keep missing notifications, or decrease it if they linger too long.
Will this mod conflict with other advancement or notification mods?
It generally works fine alongside other mods, but mods that also replace the vanilla advancement toast may conflict since both try to control the same notification. If plaques don't appear, try disabling the other notification mod.
How do I open the Advancement Plaques config?
The mod's options are exposed through the standard mod config menu for your mod loader, so open your mods list and select Advancement Plaques to reach its settings. From there you can toggle plaque placement, distance, and which advancement types are shown.
Can I move the plaques to the bottom of the screen instead of the top?
Yes, the mod lets you choose whether plaques appear at the top or bottom of the screen. Change the position option in the config, and use the distance setting to control how far the plaques sit from that edge.
How do I stop task advancements from showing up but keep goals and challenges?
The mod has separate toggles for tasks, goals, and challenges, so you can disable just the type you don't want. Turn off tasks in the config and the other two types will still display as plaques.
Do advancements from other mods show up as plaques too?
Yes, the mod hooks into the advancement system itself rather than only vanilla advancements, so advancements added by other mods display as plaques as well. They follow the same task/goal/challenge toggles as vanilla ones.
How do I change how the plaques look?
Plaque appearance is controlled through resource packs, so you swap in a pack that retextures the plaque assets. Packs like Embellished Stone are made specifically for this, and you can also make your own pack that overrides the same textures.
Is Advancement Plaques available for Bedrock Edition?
No, this mod is built for Java Edition and its mod loaders, so it can't be installed on Bedrock. Bedrock players would need a behavior/resource pack alternative instead.
Does this mod work on a server, or only in singleplayer?
The plaque display is handled client-side, so it works in singleplayer and on servers as long as the mod is installed on your client. Other players won't see your plaques unless they also have the mod.
Will Advancement Plaques hurt my performance or cause lag?
It only replaces the notification rendering, so the performance impact is negligible. If you notice stutter when a plaque appears, it's more likely a resource pack with heavy or high-resolution textures.
Can I make the plaques appear closer to or further from the screen edge?
Yes, the config includes a distance setting that controls the gap between the plaque and the top or bottom edge. Adjust it alongside the position option to place the plaques exactly where you want them.
