Troubleshoot blocks not rotating or deforming
Common causes
If falling blocks appear static and don't rotate or squash-and-stretch:
1. Check if the block is disabled in your config file—some blocks may have rotation/deformation turned off by default
2. Verify the mod is loaded by checking your mods list in-game
3. Ensure you're on a compatible version of Minecraft and the mod
Fixing the issue
Open your config file and confirm the affected block has rotation and/or squash-and-stretch enabled (set to true or a value above 0).
If the block is enabled but still not working:
1. Delete the config file entirely and restart—this regenerates defaults
2. Check that you're actually watching *falling* blocks (blocks affected by gravity), not placed blocks
3. Ensure the block is falling from a height; effects may be subtle on short drops
Reloading
After editing the config, fully restart Minecraft rather than just reloading chunks. Changes to block settings require a complete game restart to take effect.
