Big Globe When Dungeons Arise Compatibility Data Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Do I need to start a new world or can I use this data pack on an existing one?
You should create a new world after adding the data pack to your datapacks folder, since structure generation happens during world creation. Adding it to an already-generated world won't retroactively place structures in chunks that were already created.
Why aren't any When Dungeons Arise structures spawning in my Big Globe world?
Make sure both Big Globe and When Dungeons Arise are installed and enabled, the data pack is in your datapacks folder before world creation, and you've confirmed the data pack loaded by checking the data pack list in-game. If structures still don't appear, try using `/locate structure` to verify they exist in your world.
Can I use this with other structure mods or data packs?
This data pack is specifically designed for When Dungeons Arise compatibility with Big Globe. Using it alongside other structure mods may cause conflicts or overlapping placements—test carefully and load this pack last if combining multiple structure additions.
What's the best way to find dungeons in a Big Globe world?
Use `/locate structure ` to pinpoint specific dungeons, or equip an Explorer's Compass to passively track nearby structures as you explore. For ocean structures from Seven Seas, search near deep water biomes where ships are more likely to generate.
Do structures spawn at weird heights or clip into terrain?
This data pack fixes height compatibility so structures should place naturally on Big Globe's varied terrain. If you see clipping or floating structures, verify the data pack loaded correctly and that Big Globe terrain generation is active in your world settings.
Will this data pack affect my world's performance?
The data pack itself has minimal performance impact, but Big Globe's massive terrain combined with many custom structures may increase chunk generation time. Performance depends on your hardware and how many structures spawn in your explored areas.
Can I disable specific dungeons or structures I don't want?
This data pack doesn't include built-in toggles for individual structures. You would need to modify the data pack files directly or use a mod manager that supports selective data pack features.
Do ocean ships from Seven Seas spawn in regular oceans or only specific biomes?
Seven Seas structures spawn in ocean biomes across your Big Globe world. They're more common in deeper waters, so exploring vast ocean areas increases your chances of finding ships and sea hazards.
What should I bring before exploring dungeons in Big Globe?
Bring armor, weapons, healing items, and torches since dungeons contain hostile mobs. Big Globe's terrain is massive, so also pack food and consider bringing a bed or waypoint markers to avoid getting lost far from your base.
If I remove the data pack, will existing structures disappear?
Structures that already generated in your world will remain, but new chunks won't generate When Dungeons Arise structures without the data pack active. Reinstalling the data pack won't regenerate structures in already-explored areas.
