FAQs
Do I need shaders to use this mod?

Is Medievalism Mod compatible with vanilla Minecraft blocks?
Yes, it works alongside vanilla blocks, but its unique geometry and textures are best used in dedicated builds or themed areas.
Can I use the lower texture resolutions for better performance?
Yes, the mod offers 256x, 512x, and 1024x texture packs for improved performance on lower-end systems.
Does this mod add survival or gameplay features?
No, this is a purely aesthetic and architectural mod designed for Creative Mode building and visual enhancement.
Which version of Minecraft is supported?
The mod is designed for Minecraft 1.20.1 using the Forge loader.
