Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Recycler work in XMod Additions XL?

Power the Recycler with a redstone signal and feed either unstackable items or full stacks of standard stackable items into its single slot via a Hopper to convert them into experience nuggets.

How do you upgrade Sifters up to the Blazing tier?

Upgrade a regular Sifter with a Block of Emerald or Block of Diamond at a Smithing Table, then combine the Sifter (Diamond) with a Block of Netherite to make a Sifter (Blazing) and place a heat source underneath it.

Why don't Hardwood trees drop logs when chopped?

Hardwood trees in Spoopy Forests drop Hardwood Chunks instead of logs, requiring five Hardwood Chunks and four String to craft four Hardwood Planks, and none of the mod's custom trees can be replanted.

What makes the Glass Sword special in combat?

Crafted from two Glass Bottles and a Flint Chopper, the Glass Sword has low durability but can be brewed with level-one vanilla potions to apply status effects on hit.

How do you obtain Ethereal Shards and Crystal Armor?

Ethereal Shards can be smelted from Sculk Sensors in a Furnace, mined in the Ethereal dimension, or traded from Ethereal Strays, while Crystal Armor is made by smithing Glow Crystals onto Diamond Armor.
