FAQ

Is there a single jar for all versions?

No, on purpose. Each file is for one Minecraft version or a few neighbouring ones, and only where that very file was tested on each of them. See Supported Versions.

What else do I need?

Pipster on every version (QuantaVolt's gases live in Pipster's gas system), and on Fabric the Fabric API. Everything else is optional.

Does it have to be installed on the server and on every client?

Yes. QuantaVolt adds blocks, items and screens, so server and clients need the same QuantaVolt file.

My plant does not form. What now?

Open the controller (or an Inspection Hatch): the screen names the problem and the position, for example "Wrong block at … (expected: …)". Every build page lists the usual messages and how to fix them, and shows a working example layer by layer. Start with Getting Started.

Which cables and pipes work?

QuantaVolt has no cables or pipes of its own. Its machines and ports use the standard interfaces of the loader, so energy cables and item or fluid pipes of other mods connect to them. Gases need Pipster's gas pipes. Details: Energy, Fluids and Gases.

Can a plant destroy my base?

Some incidents explode or damage blocks, but only if you ignore the warnings (or switch protections off). Terrain damage is controlled by the server option incidentTerrainDamage, and safeMode turns all incidents into a plain shutdown. See Safety and Incidents.

Does it work with JEI, Jade or CC: Tweaked?

Yes, where those mods exist for your Minecraft version: JEI shows the machine recipes, Jade shows machine status, and CC: Tweaked computers can read and control the plants (ComputerCraft). They are optional. The exact tested versions are on Supported Versions.

Do the ores generate with world generation mods?

They are added to every Overworld biome of the world generator. This was checked with Terralith and Biomes O' Plenty on Minecraft 1.21.1 and 26.3 on both loaders; other world generators were not tested.

Can I use QuantaVolt in my modpack?

Yes, as long as the jar files stay exactly as published. See License and Permissions.

Where do I download QuantaVolt?

Only on Modrinth and CurseForge. Files from other sources are not official.

I found a bug. Where do I report it?

In the GitHub issue tracker. Please give the exact file name of the QuantaVolt jar, the loader and its version, and attach logs/latest.log (and a crash report if there is one).
