Advanced Netherite - Frequently Asked Questions

General questions

Can you do a backport to [older-minecraft-version]?

Netherite is a 1.16+ feature, and I will only develop for versions still supported by the mod loader.

Can you add support for [other-mod]?

I'm always up for discussion, feel free to join my Discord Server (bottom of the page) and we can have a chat about it.

Can I submit translations?

Sure, you are more than welcome to add new and/or improved translation(s)! Create a 'Fork' of the GitHub repository and add your translation to Common/src/main/resources/assets/advancednetherite/lang/ and submit the translation by creating a 'Pull Request'. It is also possible to send me a pastebin or gist with the translation on Discord (link at the bottom of the page)

Where can I leave suggestions/feature requests?

I would appreciate if you leave suggestions in my Discord Server (bottom of the page). If it's a more technical suggestion/feature request, create an issue on the GitHub issue tracker using the 'Feature Request' template.

May I feature your mod in my CurseForge and/or Modrinth modpack?

Yes, of course!

Can I repost your mod somewhere else? I will give you credit!

Please do not repost mods. In order to guarantee the safety of users I wish to have full control over the distribution of the mod. Reposting mods hurts both the mod author and mod users. For more info see: stopmodreposts.org

Gameplay related questions

How do I craft [insert item from mod]?

• Option 1: install Just Enough Items (JEI)
• Option 2: check this page on the wiki

How do I upgrade my gear or tools?

Upgrades are done through the Smithing Table. Upgrading works as follows: Netherite (vanilla MC) > Netherite-Iron > Netherite-Gold > Netherite-Emerald > Netherite-Diamond. The upgrades must go in this order. It is not possible to upgrade directly from vanilla Netherite to Netherite-Diamond, for example. You can find the recipes here or in-game through mods like Just Enough Items.

Where's the config file on Fabric?

Unfortunately the Fabric version of Advanced Netherite does not come with a config file. This is due to the fact that there's no standardised config system on Fabric, unlike with Forge and NeoForge. As of writing there also aren't any config mods available on Fabric that would meet the requirements for Advanced Netherite.

Is it possible to disable one of the armor perks?

Yes, this can be done with a datapack as of version 2.2.0. This includes Fabric as well. Previously, on older versions of the mod, this could be done through the common configuration.

Is it possible to change the item properties?

Not by default. This is a planned feature, however.

Huh?! Why is Netherite-Diamond better than Netherite-Emerald?

Diamond ore may be more common than Emerald ore, but there are other ways to create infinite sources of emeralds making them way more common than you may think. Think about: trading, raids, looting chests, etc. No, I'm not going to change this because you don't like doing any of the above.
