Garfield Totem of Undying Resource Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Do I need to do anything special to start using the Garfield totem?
No setup required—the resource pack automatically replaces your standard totems of undying with Garfield the moment you load a world. If you don't see the change, make sure the resource pack is enabled in your world settings.
Does the Garfield totem work the same way as a normal totem?
Yes, it has identical mechanics to the standard totem of undying. It still activates when you take fatal damage, restores your health, and grants temporary status effects—the only difference is the appearance.
Can I see the Garfield totem in my inventory and hotbar?
Yes, the pack replaces the totem's texture everywhere it appears: in your inventory, hotbar, hands, item frames, and even when dropped on the ground.
What happens when the totem activates in combat?
When you would take fatal damage, the totem activates just like normal—it saves your life, restores health, and applies temporary buffs. The Garfield model will display during this animation.
Can I carry multiple Garfield totems at once?
Yes, you can hold as many totems as your inventory allows, and each one functions independently as a separate life-saving item.
Does this pack work in multiplayer servers?
Resource packs are client-side, so it works on any server without requiring server-side installation—only you will see Garfield totems on your screen.
Will this pack conflict with other resource packs?
If you use multiple packs, load order matters; place this pack higher in your list if you want Garfield totems to take priority over other totem textures.
Can I use this pack with mods that add new totems?
This pack only replaces the vanilla totem of undying, so other mod-added totems will keep their original appearance unless a separate pack covers them.
Does the Garfield totem affect game performance?
No, resource packs have minimal performance impact since they only change textures and models, not game mechanics or entity behavior.
Can I display Garfield totems as decoration in item frames?
Yes, you can place totems in item frames on walls or displays, and they'll show the Garfield model just like they do in your hands.
