Mo-Variants Data Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start using Mo-Variants after installing it?
Run `/function mo-var:config` to open the configuration menu where you can enable/disable variants and adjust their spawn rates. The data pack will begin spawning new mob variants naturally in your world after this.
Can I turn off specific mob variants I don't want?
Yes, use `/function mo-var:config` to access the configuration menu where you can toggle individual variants on or off without affecting others.
What are Boss variants and how rare are they?
Boss variants are significantly stronger mobs that provide greater challenge and unique drops; they spawn much less frequently than normal variants, making encounters with them special events.
How do seasonal variants work?
Seasonal variants are designed to spawn during specific real-world times of year, adding themed mobs to your world that match the current season or holiday.
Where do I find Mo-Items drops?
Unique items drop from specific custom mobs—for example, the Forgotten Miner drops a night vision helmet and the Undead Barbarian drops a battle axe. Check which variant drops the item you're looking for and hunt that mob type.
Do variants spawn in all biomes or only certain ones?
Variants spawn naturally throughout your world, though specific variants may have biome preferences; check the mod's variant list to see if particular mobs spawn in your current location.
Can I increase or decrease how often variants spawn?
Yes, the `/function mo-var:config` menu allows you to adjust spawn rates for variants to make encounters more or less frequent based on your preference.
Will Mo-Variants cause lag or performance issues?
The data pack is designed to be lightweight, but performance depends on your world size and spawn rate settings; if you experience lag, try lowering spawn rates in the config menu.
Are there integrations with other mods or data packs?
Mo-Variants includes optional integrations that can be toggled on or off through the `/function mo-var:config` menu to ensure compatibility with your other installed content.
Will Mo-Items be separated from the main pack in the future?
Yes, custom items are planned to be split into a separate component in a future update, giving you more control over which features you want to use.
