Additonally, Fathoms is best enjoyed blind...** # Frequently Asked Questions ## Major Questions **Q:** Why is the pack is not appearing on my Modrinth installation? **A:** Modrinth does not properly install datapacks into worlds directly. You will need to manually insert the datapack and resourcepack into your world's datapack folder and your resourcepack folder respectively. **Q:** Why is this visual thing not looking right? **A:** Install the resourcepack. If you are having trouble finding the resourcepack on Modrinth, click the version you are downloading, *not* the download button. Scroll down and download the resourcepack. **Q:** Is Fathoms compatible with ? **A:** Fathoms is not designed to be compatible with any fishing mods or datapacks. It may be compatible with some datapacks that make minor changes to fishing loot tables (like [Myriad](https://modrinth.com/datapack/myriad)), which can be done by [Welding](https://weld.smithed.dev/) packs. ## Content Questions **Q:** Is this a datapack? **A:** Yes. We all make datapacks exclusively, not mods. They all use modern technology (and Smithed conventions!) to ensure the experience is integrated just as a mod. **Q:** When are you updating this pack to this Minecraft version? **A:** We don't know, don't bother us about it. **Q:** Will there be a Bedrock port for Fathoms? **A:** We do not make content for Bedrock. **Q:** Can you/I port to this Minecraft version/can you/I port to Bedrock? **A:** No. ## Ingame questions **Q:** How do I spawn in items/mobs? **A**: For items, run `/loot give @s loot :item/`. For mobs, run `/function :commands/summon/`. **Q:** I am having an issue that has not been fixed by installing the resourcepack! **A:** Datapacks are not compatible with lots of server software such as PaperMC made by lazy devs who do not take them into account. If you are running a non-vanilla server software, this may be the reason. Fabric, Quilt, Forge, and Neoforge are *probably* compatible. **Q:** Why am I not catching any of the custom fish? **A:** Fathoms is not compatible with other mods and datapacks that modify fishing loot tables. We can not fix this. # Credits ## Contributions [Lead](https://modrinth.com/user/LeadIngot) - Lead (ha) developer, artist, and idea haver [FracturedFlux](https://modrinth.com/user/FracturedFlux) - Ideas, critical feedback, beta testing, moral support [CreeperMagnet](https://thecreeperscode.com/) - Assorted borrowed and referenced [code](https://thecreeperscode.com/) [ninesnow](https://modrinth.com/user/ninesnow) - Ideas, critical feedback, art help, overall inspiration [InspectorJ](https://www.jshaw.co.uk/inspectorj) Sound effects source ## Translations [Phiphi](https://modrinth.com/user/Phiphi) - French [Narcikitty](https://modrinth.com/user/Narcikitty) - Brazillian Portugeuse Special thanks to the [Hadal Zone](https://discord.gg/cRTVrgVS7F) communities - We would not be here without you!
