Frequently asked

Does Nether Descent work on Minecraft 1.21.1?

Yes. 1.21.1 is the newest Minecraft version Nether Descent 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 Nether Descent support?

Everything the author has declared, from 1.20.1 up to 1.21.1. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.

Which loader does Nether Descent need?

Quilt, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge. A build for one loader will not load on another, so this is the first thing to check before the Minecraft version.

Which Java version do I need for Nether Descent?

Java 21 or newer, because that is what the newest Minecraft release it supports requires. The requirement comes from the game rather than from the mod itself.

What does Nether Descent need to run?

It declares Fabric API and Oh The Trees You'll Grow as required, so those have to be installed alongside it or it will not load. Each one is linked in the dependencies section above.

What licence is Nether Descent under?

LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved, 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 Nether Descent?

Install the matching loader first, then put the downloaded file in your mods folder and start the game. The loader, the mod and Minecraft all have to be on the same version, which is the usual reason a mod does not appear in game.

Where do I download Nether Descent safely?

From the author's own page on Modrinth, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.
