FAQ
Can I use this mod in my own mod or mod pack?
Yes, you are allowed to use this mod in your mods and mod packs
Port to another Minecraft version? Which versions are supported?
Sorry, but I do not backport any mod to an older version. Here is a list of all supported and planned versions: Minecraft mod versions of cech12
Is there a Fabric version?
Since 1.20.4 the mod is available for Fabric & Quilt. There is no plan to backport Fabric support to earlier Minecraft versions.
Where is the config file?
There is a defaultconfig directory, where you can find it. If you change something there it has only an effect on new savegames. For existing savegames you need to go to the serverconfig directory of the savegame.
I found a bug or I have a good idea to enhance this mod!
Very good! Open an issue at Github or contact me on Discord.
