Troubleshoot Missing or Invisible Planets

Check Installation and Compatibility

1. Verify the mod is loaded — Check your mod list in-game to confirm Planetarium Mod appears and is enabled.

2. Confirm Minecraft version compatibility — Ensure your mod version matches your Minecraft version. Mismatches prevent proper loading.

3. Test without other mods — Disable other mods temporarily to identify conflicts. Some mods alter sky rendering and may interfere.

Visibility Issues

Planets not appearing at night:

  • Ensure you're looking at the actual night sky, not just a dark area. Planets render as part of the sky texture.
  • Check if your render distance is high enough. Planets may fail to render at very low distances.
  • Verify your brightness/gamma settings aren't hiding them.

Planets invisible with shaders:

  • Confirm your shader supports Planetarium. Not all shaders are compatible.
  • If using Complementary or similar, set Sun/Moon Style to "Reimagined" as described in mod documentation.
  • Try disabling the shader temporarily to see if planets appear without it.

Still not working:

  • Delete the mod's config file and let it regenerate with defaults.
  • Reinstall the mod from a trusted source.
