Sandbox/Old Mod Compatibility

Mod Compatibility
This page lists mods that the community has tested for compatiblility with Mystcraft. Please add any mods you attempt to use with Mystcraft, and please keep this page up to date. If you need to see how the tables work, see the syntax page.

For a collection of mods that is easy to install and includes Mystcraft, see the [|FTB modpack]. NOTE: FTB Ultimate is not fully tested for compatibility of all mods. Some users have reported issues generating Mystcraft ages.

If you attempt to run a mod not listed on this page together with Mystcraft, please report your findings here. This page is a community effort. Similarly, if you have updated compatibility information on a mod listed here, please update the page with that new information, even if it is only version numbers.

Mods that add biomes
Mystcraft will reference the internal biomes array and add symbols to support generation of those biomes in written Ages. If a mod does not use the default internal biome array, the mod may reference the Mystcraft API to insert the biomes. See the Modding API section of this page.

This does not guarantee that all the biomes will work, as biome or world ID's may need to be edited for certain mods to ensure there are no conflicts.

Mods that use custom terrain generators
Mods that use or create custom terrain generators (e.g. Better World Generator) should be compatible. Should another mod modify the default terrain generator, it will only effect the default world. Mystcraft uses its own terrain generator for its Ages, and thus ignores any custom generators from other mods.

Note that this is just a generalisation, and mods can still effect Mystcraft's generators and create modifiers via the Mystcraft API (See the Modding API section of this page) and that other features of the mod, such as custom worlds, blocks, or features, may not always be compatible.

Mods that use custom liquids
Mods that have custom liquids must register an item version of their liquid (similar to how if you cheat yourself a water source block by using the /give command) in order for Mystcraft to be able to pull that liquid's name when creating symbols. If the item version doesn't exist, Mystraft will crash.

IMPORTANT NOTE
IF YOU CANNOT FIGURE OUT BLOCK AND ITEM ID CONFLICTS THAT DOES NOT MEAN THE MOD IS INCOMPATIBLE!

Special note for Twilight Forest / Underground Biomes Constructs
Twilight Forest seems to do some unusual things in worldgen. There is nothing wrong with what it does, but some other mods make assumptions that break TF.

Known offenders include Underground Biomes Constructs. The key here is the config line in UBC: # Clear the world var in BiomeGenBase for recursive generation B:clearVarsForRecursiveGeneration=true

This must be false, not "true", for twilight forest to generate properly.

UBC stores a world-specific copy of the config file inside the world (save) folder after the world is first made, to prevent accidentally changing the world's settings after it is made. This of course means that while changing the normal config file will fix worlds made later, you have to look at the world specific config file inside the world to fix existing worlds that are crashing.
