Gtnhlib FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need Gtnhlib to play GT New Horizons?
Yes, GTNHLib is a required dependency for GT New Horizons. Without it installed, core addons like GregTech 5U-NH and Hodgepodge will not load and your world may fail to start.
What do I do if my game crashes on startup with Gtnhlib installed?
Check that GTNHLib is placed in your mods folder alongside other GT New Horizons addons, and verify you're using the correct mod version for your pack. If crashes persist, check your launcher logs for specific error messages about conflicting mods or missing dependencies.
Does Gtnhlib itself add any items or blocks I can craft?
No, GTNHLib is a background library mod. It doesn't add craftable items or blocks—it only provides shared code and tools that other mods in the pack use to function.
How does Gtnhlib help with inventory lag?
GTNHLib includes an optimized item stack map tool that speeds up how the game searches through large inventories and storage systems, reducing the lag spikes that can happen when checking many items at once.
What are HUD text helpers and how do I use them?
HUD text helpers are tools that addons use to display clean, organized information on your screen without cluttering the interface. You don't configure them directly—mods that depend on GTNHLib use these helpers automatically to show their own data.
Can I remove Gtnhlib after installing it?
No, removing GTNHLib will break any mod that depends on it, including GregTech 5U-NH and Hodgepodge. Keep it installed for your world to function properly.
Does Gtnhlib conflict with other library mods?
GTNHLib is designed specifically for GT New Horizons addons and generally doesn't conflict with other library mods, but always check your pack's mod list to ensure no two mods serve the exact same purpose.
Why is my HUD text displaying incorrectly or overlapping?
HUD text issues usually come from mods using GTNHLib's helpers, not GTNHLib itself. Check if another mod's configuration or screen resolution is causing overlap, and look for mod-specific HUD settings in your config files.
Does Gtnhlib require any configuration files?
GTNHLib works out of the box without manual configuration. Addons that use it may have their own config files, but GTNHLib itself doesn't need adjustment for normal gameplay.
How do I know if Gtnhlib is actually loaded in my world?
Check your launcher log file for a line confirming GTNHLib initialization, or verify that dependent mods like GregTech 5U-NH are working—if they run without errors, GTNHLib loaded successfully.
