Dependencies

What Improved Happy Ghastdeclares it needs, from the author’s own release metadata. A required one has to be installed alongside it or it will not load.

Fabric APIRequired. Lightweight and modular API providing common hooks and intercompatibility measures utilized by mods using the Fabric toolchain.

Frequently asked

Does Improved Happy Ghast work on Minecraft 26.3?

Yes. 26.3 is the newest Minecraft version Improved Happy Ghast declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.

Which Minecraft versions does Improved Happy Ghast support?

Everything the author has declared, from 25w15a up to 26.3. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.

Do I need to install Improved Happy Ghast on the client or the server?

The server only. Players join with an ordinary Minecraft client and install nothing.

What does Improved Happy Ghast need to run?

It declares Fabric API as required, so that has to be installed alongside it or it will not load. Each one is linked in the dependencies section above.

What licence is Improved Happy Ghast under?

LGPL-3.0-or-later, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.

How do I install Improved Happy Ghast?

Data packs install per world: put the downloaded file in that world's datapacks folder and run /reload, or add it when creating the world. No loader is involved. On a server, the world folder lives next to the server jar.

Where do I download Improved Happy Ghast safely?

Start with the author's page on Modrinth, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference does not host or repackage files. When available, recorded download links go to the source for that release; verify the publisher, filename and any available checksum before running it.
