Frequently Asked Questions¶

Where can I find the resource pack?¶

Keep in mind that it is entirely optional and is not required for the pack to work.

Before 2.2.0¶

Go to Stellarity's page, then to the downloads section and click on the title (NOT the download button) of the datapack version the resource pack is for. Scroll down and you will see 2 downloadable files - one for the datapack itself, and the other one for the optional resource pack.

2.2.0 and after¶

Resource pack is available as a separate project for the ease of locating it. Click HERE to go to its Modrinth page.

Music Addon (2.2.0+)¶

Starting from Stellarity 2.2.0, music and biome ambience tracks are not included in the optional resource pack or the mod version as to not inflate the file size.

2.2.0: The music addon is found in the same place as the optional resource pack
2.3.0+: You can download a different resource pack which contains background tracks for the mod HERE, on the addon's page.

I removed/uninstalled Stellarity and now my world doesn't load/How to uninstall your projects?¶

Removing datapacks which alter world generation isn't as simple as with just pure function datapacks.

Why does that happen?¶

After a world is created with a worldgen datapack, the game loads the custom biome IDs into the level.dat file. After removing the pack and loading the world, it tries to find the files for those IDs, but fails and causes you to be unable to access your world. This is kinda what's happening, it is a bit more complicated on the inside.

In order to remove a worldgen pack without locking yourself out of your world/server, you have to remove all traces of that datapack's worldgen modifications from level.dat, which is very hard if you have never edited that file before.

Sawdust¶

@catter1 from Stardust Labs has created a website called Sawdust dedicated to removing Stardust worldgen data from level.dat, but also decided to include Stellarity. Thanks to them, the process is incredibly simple and is definitely way easier than doing it manually!

Does Stellarity have a configuration file¶

No. It is just a datapack, so it isn't even physically possible for me to add a config file. I mean it would be if I learned Java, but I am too lazy to do that.

im working on a stellarity mod "fork" that may use that - Progames723

There is however a per-world configuration which allows one to edit a very limited amount of features. You can access it by doing

/function stellarity:cmd/configuration

or

/function stellarity:cmd/configuration.reset_to_defaults

to reset all options back to default.

Since Stellarity is only a datapack, it will never be possible to make a global config file. It is also not possible to disable/enable biomes at will. Singular items cannot be disabled as well.

Current config options:¶

Whether to send a message when a world is loaded (default: true)
If the Dragon Egg should generate every time the Ender Dragon is killed (default: false)
Maximum health of the Ender Dragon (default: 300; range: 1 - 1024)
Maximum health of the Empress of Light (default: 500; range: 1 - 1024)
Whether to enable separating enchantments on the Altar of The Accursed (default: true)
Whether to allow Treasure Heads to generate in loot chests (default: true)
Loop delay in ticks of Ender Dragon's music track (default: 4230)
Loop delay in ticks of Empress of Light's music track (default: 3800)
If respawning The Ender Dragon should cause a slight screen shake effect (default: true)
If End Crystals in End Cities should prevent placing and breaking blocks until destroyed (default: true)
If boosting an Elytra should damage the item (default: true)

Will you ever backport to version...?¶

My projects are only datapacks, so not everything can be backported as some stuff is only possible in newer versions. Also, remember I work on everything almost fully by myself, so maintaining several projects with a few versions, each for a different version of Minecraft, would be pretty much an overkill for me.

Just update. There is no valid reason to stay in versions that are long overdue.

I can't find the Altar of The Accursed anywhere on my server!¶

Please refer to the installation guide.
