Difficulty Enhancement Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I open the Difficulty Enhancement Mod menu?
Press the designated menu key (configurable in your controls settings) to open the mod's interface. The menu appears as an overlay on your screen and closes when you press the key again or click outside the panel.
Can I change difficulty settings after I've already started my world?
Yes, you can adjust all settings at any time without restarting your world or server. Changes apply immediately to new mobs and damage calculations.
What's the difference between damage multipliers and health multipliers?
Damage multipliers control how much harm mobs and players deal to each other, while health multipliers change how much health mobs and players have. You can adjust these independently to create different difficulty curves.
Does Cozy Mode disable achievements or progress?
Cozy Mode is a preset that lowers damage and health values for relaxed play. Whether achievements are disabled depends on your world settings—check your world options to confirm if you're playing on a world that allows them.
Can I use this mod on a multiplayer server?
Yes, the mod is server-compatible and settings apply globally to all players on that server. Only players with the mod installed can access the menu, but the difficulty changes affect everyone.
If I set a damage multiplier to 0, do mobs stop dealing damage completely?
Setting multipliers to zero will eliminate damage from that source. This creates a peaceful-like experience where mobs cannot hurt you, though you may still take fall damage or other environmental damage depending on your other settings.
Does this mod work with other difficulty mods?
Using multiple mods that modify difficulty or damage can cause conflicts or unpredictable behavior. It's best to use only one difficulty mod to ensure your settings work as intended.
Will adjusting these settings cause lag or performance issues?
No, the mod applies multipliers without adding extra processing overhead. Your game performance should remain the same regardless of what difficulty settings you choose.
Can I make the game harder than normal Minecraft difficulty?
Yes, you can increase damage and health multipliers above their default values to create a more challenging experience than any vanilla difficulty setting.
Do the difficulty settings affect boss mobs differently?
The global multipliers apply to all mobs equally, including bosses. If you want bosses to feel different, you'll need to adjust the overall multipliers or use Cozy Mode as your baseline.
