CRLib Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to install CRLib to play Minecraft normally?
No, CRLib is a library mod designed to support other mods. You only need it if you're running mods that depend on it—check your mod's requirements to be sure.
How do I know if a mod requires CRLib?
Check the mod's description page on CurseForge or Modrinth; it will list CRLib as a required dependency if needed. You can also look in the mod's README or documentation file.
What's the custom bucket system and how do I use it?
CRLib adds a new bucket system that handles fluids differently than vanilla buckets, allowing mods to create custom fluid interactions. Once installed, buckets work automatically in your world without extra setup.
Can I use CRLib buckets with regular Minecraft fluids?
Yes, the custom bucket system is designed to work alongside vanilla fluids, though specific compatibility depends on which mods you have installed alongside CRLib.
Why aren't my custom textures or models loading?
Make sure CRLib is installed and loaded before any mods that depend on it, and verify that texture/model files are in the correct directories. CRLib acts as a data pack loader, so file structure matters.
Does CRLib work with the Roost Mod?
Yes, CRLib creates special fluid eggs for the Roost Mod using standard game files, so they work together seamlessly when both are installed.
Will CRLib slow down my game?
CRLib is a lightweight library mod designed to minimize performance impact; it mainly runs background code and helper functions for dependent mods.
Can I remove CRLib after installing mods that use it?
No, you must keep CRLib installed as long as you have mods that depend on it, or those mods will not work correctly.
What happens if I load CRLib without any dependent mods?
The mod will still load and provide its custom bucket system, but you won't see much benefit unless you install mods designed to use CRLib's features.
Do I need to configure CRLib after installing it?
No, CRLib works out of the box once installed; dependent mods handle their own configuration, and the custom bucket system activates automatically.
