Frequently asked questions

How do I craft copper tools and armor?
Copper tools and armor are crafted using the same recipes as iron or diamond tools, but with copper ingots instead. You'll need a crafting table and copper ingots obtained by smelting copper ore.
Do rainbow bookshelves stack their enchanting power?
Yes, rainbow bookshelves provide double enchanting power per bookshelf, and their effects stack when multiple bookshelves are placed around an enchanting table. The more you place nearby, the higher your enchantment levels will be.
What's the difference between empty bookshelves and regular bookshelves?
Empty bookshelves are purely decorative and don't provide enchanting power, making them ideal for custom library displays and storage aesthetics. Regular bookshelves still boost enchanting tables but take up more visual space.
How do copper hoppers work differently from normal hoppers?
Copper hoppers automatically drop any items placed inside them instead of transferring them to containers below. This is useful for item sorting systems or preventing accidental storage of unwanted items.
Can I place lanterns on walls?
Yes, lanterns can now be wall-mounted for cleaner builds, and they can also float on top of lily pads for decorative water features. This gives you more flexibility in lighting design.
What does the weather detector actually do?
The weather detector emits a redstone signal that changes based on current weather conditions—different signal strengths for clear, rain, and thunder. You can use this to automate redstone contraptions that respond to weather changes.
Does the shulker shell helmet work in the regular world or just the End?
The shulker shell helmet prevents levitation effects anywhere they occur, but it's most useful in End Cities where shulkers are common. It will protect you from any levitation source in the game.
Are there leaf carpets for every wood type?
Leaf carpets are available for the major wood types in the mod, and matching wooden ladder variants exist for each as well. Check your creative inventory or crafting recipes to see which wood types are supported.
What brick variants does this mod add?
The mod adds cracked, mossy, and chiseled variants for bricks, mud bricks, prismarine, and purpur blocks. These give you more decorative options for building with these materials.
Where do Illusioner cabins spawn?
Illusioner cabins generate naturally in taiga and mega taiga biomes as unique structures. They're worth exploring for loot and as inspiration for your own builds.
