ARRP but It’s Different but It’s Still ARRP Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know if ARRP is working after I install it?
Check your game logs for ARRP initialization messages, and look in your game directory for a generated assets folder (usually in `.minecraft/generated` or similar). If you see generated resource pack files appearing during gameplay, the mod is active.
Can I use ARRP with other mods that also generate assets?
Yes, ARRP is designed to coexist with other mods, but if multiple mods generate the same asset, load order matters—whichever mod loads last will typically take priority. Check your mod loader's configuration to adjust load order if conflicts occur.
Do generated assets disappear if I remove the mod?
Generated files are created in real time while the mod runs, so they won't persist after you remove ARRP. If you want to keep custom textures or models, export them as a resource pack before uninstalling.
Why do my custom resource pack textures not override the generated ones?
ARRP places generated packs at lower priority by design, so your resource packs should override them automatically. If they don't, check that your resource pack is enabled and ranked higher in your resource pack list than any generated packs.
Can I use ARRP to generate recipes and loot tables, or just textures and models?
ARRP can generate custom data including recipes, loot tables, tags, and other data pack files at runtime, not just visual assets. This lets mods add complex game logic without bundling heavy data files.
Does ARRP work on both Fabric and NeoForge?
Yes, this version of ARRP supports both Fabric and NeoForge loaders on modern Minecraft versions. The NeoForge version includes specific event handling (BeforeUser events) to ensure proper asset loading.
Will using ARRP slow down my game or cause lag?
ARRP generates assets on demand during gameplay, which may cause brief pauses the first time new assets are needed, but this is typically minimal. Once generated, assets are cached, so performance impact is usually negligible.
How do I make sure a mod is actually using ARRP to generate its assets?
Check the mod's documentation or source code—if it uses ARRP, it will declare it as a dependency. You can also monitor your generated assets folder to see if new files appear when the mod loads.
Can I manually edit generated assets, or will they be overwritten?
Generated assets are created fresh each time based on the mod's code, so manual edits will be overwritten when the game restarts or assets are regenerated. Instead, create a resource pack to override them permanently.
What's the difference between this ARRP fork and the original ARRP project?
This version is a revised fork with updated mechanics for modern Minecraft and adds NeoForge compatibility alongside Fabric support. Check the mod's documentation for specific improvements over the original.
