Underground Villages Stoneholm Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I find a Stoneholm village?
Stoneholm villages generate deep underground, so you'll need to explore caves, ravines, and mineshafts at low depths to stumble across one. You can also use commands like /locate to search for the village structure directly if you'd rather not wander blindly.
What Y level do Stoneholm villages spawn at?
They generate deep below the surface, well into the underground layers where normal cave systems exist. Digging down and exploring large open caverns is the most reliable way to run into one.
Do Stoneholm villagers trade like normal villagers?
Yes, the villagers living in Stoneholm work like regular villagers, so you can trade with them for the usual goods. Just make sure you have emeralds and a safe path to their trading spots.
Can I use a Stoneholm village as my base?
Absolutely, the village comes pre-lit and decorated, so it's a ready-made shelter. You can claim a room or home, set up storage and crafting, and expand into the surrounding halls.
How do I keep from getting lost in the Stoneholm maze?
The halls and floors form a sprawling maze, so place torches, signs, or blocks as markers as you explore. Mapping out junctions and noting which staircases lead up or down will save you a lot of backtracking.
Are Stoneholm villages dangerous? Do mobs spawn there?
The village itself is lit and decorated, which keeps most hostile mobs from spawning inside. However, the surrounding underground is still dangerous, so watch out for mobs in connecting caves and unlit corridors.
Can I find farms and meeting rooms in Stoneholm?
Yes, the villages include intricate halls, homes, farms, and meeting rooms carved out by the villagers. The farms are especially useful for grabbing food or starting your own crops.
Is Stoneholm compatible with other village or structure mods?
It generally works alongside other mods since it adds its own separate underground structure type. Conflicts are rare, but if another mod heavily alters world generation, villages may generate less often or overlap.
Why can't I find a Stoneholm village in my world?
They only generate in newly created chunks, so worlds made before adding the mod won't have them. Try exploring fresh areas far from your spawn or start a new world to see them.
Does Stoneholm hurt performance or cause lag?
The villages are large multi-floor structures, so loading one for the first time can cause a brief lag spike. Once generated, performance is usually fine, but exploring many at once on a low-end machine may strain things.
