QnA
Q: Can I include this in my modpack?
A: Yes! This mod was made to mainly help modpack creators.
Q: Can I upload this somewhere else?
A: No, you cannot upload this anywhere else.
Q: WHY 1.6.4?
A: 1.6.4 is a very underrated version that I wish would get more mods. Don't worry I am porting forward.
Q: Why does my config file say it's for a different version?
A: That's just the last major change to the code. It is still for the version you downloaded.
