Japanese Style Village Map FAQ

Create a new world and select 'Japanese Style Village Map' as your world type during world creation. The mod will generate the custom village automatically when you spawn in.

You can build freely in the map—it's a fully editable world. Many players choose to build their bases in cleared areas near the village or on the small islands to avoid disrupting the existing structures.

The small islands and water areas around the village offer good building spots without conflicting with existing buildings. Alternatively, you can clear an area in the dark forest surrounding the town, though watch out for low light and mobs.

The shrines are decorative structures built into the map's design. They're great landmarks for navigation and photography, but they don't have mechanical functions.

Yes—the dark forest has low light levels, so hostile mobs can spawn frequently. Bring torches, weapons, and armor if you plan to explore beyond the lit village areas.

The onsen is integrated into the village layout and should be visible as you explore. Check near the water features and decorated buildings if you're having trouble locating it.

The map itself is generally compatible with most mods, but performance can depend on what else you have installed. Mods that heavily modify terrain generation or add many new blocks may cause issues.

The detailed decorations and structures can be demanding on lower-end systems. Try reducing your render distance, disabling fancy graphics, or lowering other video settings if you experience lag.

Explore thoroughly around the shrines, islands, and edges of the village—the map has many detailed areas worth discovering, though there are no documented secret structures that unlock special mechanics.
