Troubleshooting/faq

This page is here to help if you have any trouble or bug by installing Incendium and to know more about the contents of the pack, most of it is spoiler-free.

Why is the Nether no different?
- Make sure you installed the datapack correctly, you probably did load it without activating it. You would have to recreate a world and install it correctly for it to work. If you did install it correctly, but on an already loaded world, only newly loaded chunk will generate with Incendium, either reset your Nether or recreate a new world if you want already loaded chunks to be generated with Incendium. For a server, you will have to make that world in singleplayer then copy it onto your server because most of them tend to load the world before a player even joined.

Why isn't Incendium working on my server?
- What are you using for your server host? If its paper or forge, download the specific version for that.

Why is my world is corrupted after installing the datapack?
- Any worldgen datapack added after the world was generated will corrupt your world if you have other worldgen datapacks. The main reason being the fact that custom biomes can't have a set ID like the vanilla ones and for this reason, they are put in alphabetical order, so adding a worldgen datapack that adds custom biomes on another one will cause this alphabetical order to change, corrupting your world. This bug will allegedly be fixed by Mojang in 1.18, but for now you should never add a worldgen datapack on an already generated world. So make sure that you have all the worldgen datapacks you want before loading your world for the first time. For a server, you will have to make that world in singleplayer then copy it onto your server because most of them tend to load the world before a player even joined.

Can I install other world generation datapacks or mods with Incendium?
- It heavily depends on how the datapack or mod is made. If the worldgen mod or datapack doesn't affect the Nether, there is no risk. Otherwise, it recommended to just try and see. A list of compatible and non-compatible worldgen datapacks and mods will be added.

How do I update the datapack?
- Updating a worldgen datapack is risky depending on the changes, it's not recommended if new biomes are added. If the changes are minimal, here is how to install it on an existing world, replacing the old file should do the trick. If the changes are major, you will have to make a new world.

Q: Who is Starmute?
"A: Starmute is the creator of this pack (although a bunch of other people have helped)"

Q: Am I allowed to use Incendium's code/biomes for my own project?
"A: You should ask first and be clear about what you want to use it for. You're free to use Incendium with any combination of datapacks, and you're free to use my biomes as a resource to learn (of course). But please don't rip my biomes and assemble them into a Frankenstein's monster. (Starmute)"

Q: What's going on with this blackstone arena in the Quartz Flats or the Cathedral in the Withered Forest?
"A: They are just cool structures for now, but they will have bosses later :)"

Q: How can I get the custom items in creative?
"A: Type '/loot give @s loot starmute: ' then scroll through the options"

Q: How can I find a piglin castle in creative?
"A: Type '/locate bastion ', if that doesnt work, go away from that area and try again (it works better in basalt deltas)"

Q: Now that I've read through all of the FAQ page, how can I find the hidden netherite in all the structures?
"A: Thats for me to know, and you to find out ;)"
