Hey, Hey you! This is important!

The version support numbers are strict!
If a version says it supports MC 1.18.1 it will NOT work on 1.18.2!

And: the mod is still in alpha. Things may change, break, crash or otherwise go wrong. You have been warned!
Although if you have problems feel free to leave an issue on the project's GitLab.

FAQ:

Q: Forge or Fabric?
A: Both in the same jar.

Q: Shaders?
A: Some shaders may work with Optifine, however your millage may vary.
Iris needs to add DH support for DH to function with it.

Q: Does this work with player created structures?
A: Yes.

Q: Is there multiplayer support?
A: Yes. Although currently the mod is only client side so you have to explore chunks for the mod to use them.
