MMR Moog’s Mineshafts Reimagined Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I find a mineshaft in my world?
MMR mineshafts generate randomly underground in biomes just like vanilla structures—dig down, explore caves, or use commands like /locate structure to pinpoint them. Each biome has its own mineshaft variant, so a desert will spawn desert mineshafts while a taiga spawns taiga mineshafts.
Do I need to enable MMR mineshafts in world settings?
No, MMR mineshafts generate automatically in new worlds once the mod is installed. If you're playing an existing world, mineshafts will only spawn in newly generated chunks.
What's the difference between biome mineshafts?
Each biome has unique architecture and loot—desert mineshafts feature sandstone and archaeology dig sites, jungle mineshafts are overgrown with vines and hidden furnace doors, taiga mineshafts use wood and classic supports, and nether mineshafts contain hazard rooms and warden corridors. The layout and room types change based on which biome sits above the structure.
Are there mob spawners in every mineshaft?
Yes, mob spawners are placed throughout mineshaft branches to create danger and challenge. They're typically found at tunnel junctions and near valuable loot rooms, so expect combat when exploring deeper sections.
How do secret doors work in jungle mineshafts?
Jungle mineshafts hide secret passages behind furnaces—place fuel and an item in the furnace to trigger the door mechanism and reveal hidden loot rooms. Check furnaces you find in jungle tunnels to unlock these passages.
Can I use MMR with other mods that add structures?
Yes, MMR works cleanly in any modpack because it uses only vanilla blocks and mobs without altering default game mechanics. It won't conflict with other structure-adding mods.
What loot should I expect to find?
Mineshafts contain common supply barrels, standard loot chests, and rare treasure vaults hidden deeper underground. Loot varies by biome—desert mineshafts include archaeology dig sites with suspicious sand, while nether mineshafts hold more dangerous rewards.
Do mineshafts generate in the Nether?
Yes, nether mineshafts are a dedicated variant with nether brick tunnels, TNT trap rooms, and unique hazards adapted for the underworld. They generate like other biome variants but with underworld-themed architecture.
Will MMR mineshafts affect my game performance?
MMR uses vanilla blocks and jigsaw-based generation, so performance impact is minimal and comparable to vanilla structure generation. Large mineshaft networks may load more chunks, but the mod is designed to work cleanly without lag.
Can I find mineshafts in old chunks before I installed the mod?
No, MMR mineshafts only generate in newly created chunks after the mod is installed. Pre-existing terrain won't have MMR structures unless you explore far from your original spawn area.
