45+ Magical Accessories & Exploration Content for CuriosPaper
Hats ยท Necklaces ยท Belts ยท Gloves ยท Boots ยท Mimics ยท Campsites
A content addon for CuriosPaper โ explore, loot, and equip.
A unofficial server-side port of the popular Artifacts mod by ochotonida.
No client mods required. Just drop it in alongside CuriosPaper and your world fills with discoverable treasures.
๐งฉ What is PaperArtifacts?
PaperArtifacts brings the beloved Artifacts mod experience to Paper & Spigot servers as an addon for CuriosPaper.
It adds 45+ unique magical items with custom textures that players can discover through dungeon loot, mob drops, and abandoned campsites โ underground structures that generate naturally in your world. Some chests in those campsites might be Mimics โ hostile mobs disguised as chests that attack when opened!
Every item is fully configurable, has a custom resource pack model, and works out of the box.
๐ What's New in v1.2
- ๐๏ธ Modern Double Jump Engine: Double jumping with the Cloud in a Bottle now utilizes modern input-packet events on Paper servers for unmatched responsiveness, preventing conflicts with creative flight or client mods.
- ๐ก๏ธ Lucky Scarf Anti-Exploit: Implemented block placement tracking via metadata, preventing duplication exploits. The +1 Fortune bonus now correctly applies strictly to natural ore blocks.
- ๐พ Database-Backed Mimics: Mimic chest locations are now stored asynchronously via CuriosPaper's Storage API (supporting SQLite, MySQL, and MongoDB) for reliable cross-restart persistence.
- ๐ GeyserMC & Bedrock Support: Fully integrated automatic bedrock pack extraction and custom mappings injection.

๐๏ธ Campsites & Mimics
Abandoned campsites generate underground in caves. They contain beds, crafting stations, furnaces, barrels, and loot chests โ some with artifacts inside.
But be careful โ some chests are actually Mimics. They look like normal chests, but when you open one, it transforms into a hostile mob with custom animations and sounds. Mimics only exist inside campsites and won't activate unless you interact with them. Defeat one to earn a random artifact!
Chests can also be trapped with TNT underneath. Exploration is rewarding โ but risky.
