Content
Moths
Moths are harmless and rather stupid flying insects. They spawn at night, especially in forests. They are attracted to light sources, even harmful ones like fire. However, they can clutter up torches and break them.
Hidebehind
The Hidebehind is a fearsome critter believed to be responsible for the disappearances of woodsmen and other forest travelers. It stalks its prey silently, and will duck behind trees and seem to melt into them if spotted, but gradually move towards its quarry. However, its vibrant eyes can give it away, and its eyes are sensitive to light and it will try to avoid bright lights. If it manages to reach its prey, it will consume them in a few violent bites, leaving no remains...
Wisps
Wisps are strange gaseous spirits found in forests and swamps. They often flit around aimlessly, and tend to vanish if approached. However, a few Wisps can rip the soul from a person, and try to burn it up as fuel for its fire. If this happens, it can only mean certain death, unless the Wisp is killed in time and releases the soul. When a Wisp is killed, it may drop a Ghost Light, which can be placed as a light source.
Ghost Lights
Ghost Lights are wisp-like lighting that can be placed anywhere, producing a colorful flame and a moderate amount of light.
Wisp Lanterns
Wisp lanterns are crafted by putting iron nuggets around a ghost light.
Hirschgeist
The Hirschgeist is a mini-boss spirit of the forest with powerful flame attacks that can summon wisps to fight for it.
Hirschgeist Skull
An item dropped upon the death of a Hirschgeist. It wards off dangerous spirits. It can also be placed down as decoration.
Hand of Fate
An occult artifact used to summon spectral beings from the Otherworld. It can be lit with ghost lights or blaze powder as part of the wisp recipe (press SHIFT while viewing its tooltip to get recipe information)
Zotzpyre
A vampiric beast found in caves and at night in the jungle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Below is a collection of frequently asked questions.
Can I use this mod in a pack?
Yes, so long as it is hosted on Curse or private. If you wish to publicly host a pack on another platform (like technic), please ask or consider using Curse as it supports developers.
Where can I find the configs?
Singleplayer: saves/(world)/server-config/whisperwoods-server.toml
Servers: rootdir/(world)/server-config/whisperwoods-server.toml
Is this mod compatible with (Insert biomes mod here)?
Yes, so long as the mod uses the Biome Dictionary provided by Forge. This includes Biomes O Plenty and Traverse, as well as many other biome mods.
How do I disable/modify the spawning of (insert entity here)?
Use the configs, you can see where to find them in "Where can I find the configs?" above. Switch doSpawning to false in order to disable spawning. You can also adjust weight and what biomes they spawn in.
How can I set a default / automatically place a server configuration in 1.14 because new worlds don't have my configuration?
Placing whisperwoods-server.toml in the defaultconfigs folder will make it automatically be copied into new saves.
1.12 backport?
No.
Why isn't the Hidebehind doing anything or moving?
The Hidebehind doesn't wander about, it stalks its prey. However, it won't stalk prey that are in the light, and it won't stalk prey during the day unless it's in a dark place. This isn't a bug, it's intentional. They aren't creatures that typically exist outside of stalking prey.
Can I tame Zotzpyres or anything?
No. This is a mod meant to add horrors to the forest, not to add cute pets and animals friends
Will you make Zotzpyres or anything tamable?
No. See above. If a mob is not tamable, there is a good reason for it. Also, if any mob is not tamable upon release, it will not be made tamable later.
