Catharsis Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need Fabric Language Kotlin to use this mod?
Yes, Fabric Language Kotlin is a required dependency. Make sure it's installed before loading Catharsis Mod, or the mod won't work.
How do I know if my resource pack is compatible with Catharsis?
Compatible packs use Catharsis's custom model data and predicates to target SkyBlock items. Check the pack's documentation or test it in-game—if items don't change appearance, the pack may not support Catharsis features.
Why aren't my custom textures showing up on SkyBlock items?
Make sure your resource pack is loaded, the mod is installed correctly, and the pack actually includes Catharsis support. Also verify you're on a SkyBlock island where the mod can read item data properly.
Can I use multiple resource packs with Catharsis at the same time?
Yes, you can stack resource packs in your resource pack folder, but only one pack's textures will display for each item—the highest-priority pack in your list wins.
Does Catharsis work with armor texture packs?
Yes, the mod supports custom armor rendering including 3D armor models and the ability to hide specific armor pieces. Your resource pack must be designed to use these Catharsis features.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
Catharsis runs in the background with minimal overhead, but heavily detailed resource packs or many location-based rules can impact performance. Test your setup and disable unnecessary features if you notice slowdowns.
How do location-based texture changes work?
The mod detects which SkyBlock island or area you're in and applies different textures to blocks accordingly. Your resource pack needs to include predicates that match these location checks for the feature to work.
Can textures change based on what I'm doing, like when I sneak?
Yes, Catharsis supports dynamic textures that respond to player actions like sneaking. Your resource pack must include predicates for these states to display the alternate textures.
What happens if I uninstall the mod but keep my resource pack?
Your resource pack will still load, but Catharsis-specific features won't work—items won't display custom models, location rules won't apply, and armor changes won't show.
Can I create my own resource pack for Catharsis from scratch?
Yes, but you'll need to learn Catharsis's custom model data format and predicate system. Start by studying existing compatible packs or the mod's documentation to understand how to structure your pack correctly.
