Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install this separately or does it come with Cataclysm?
This is a separate data pack that works alongside the base Cataclysm mod—you need both installed to use it. The data pack adds compatibility layers without modifying Cataclysm itself, so it loads on top of your existing setup.
Which mods does this pack actually make compatible with Cataclysm bosses?
It adds boss destruction support for blocks from Twigs, Habitat, and Autumnity, and integrates with creature mods like Alex's Mobs. It also works with Endergetic Expansion, Infernal Expansion, and Dungeon Now Loading.
Why do Cataclysm boss attacks sometimes not destroy modded blocks?
Without this pack, bosses only recognize vanilla Minecraft blocks as destructible during their attacks. This data pack registers blocks from compatible mods so bosses can smash through them like they do stone and wood.
What does 'sticky items' mean and which weapons get this?
Sticky items are special weapons and tools from Cataclysm that now attach properly to targets when they hit, instead of bouncing off or behaving unpredictably. This applies to weapons designed to stick in the base mod.
