Questions about Macaw's Roofs.
4 questions
How do I install Macaw's Roofs?
Install Fabric, Forge or NeoForge for your Minecraft release, then drop the matching mod file into the mods folder and launch with that loader's profile. On Fabric, add Fabric API as well. Forge and NeoForge files need no other mods.
Does Macaw's Roofs work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, but it is needed on both sides. The mod is listed as required on the client and on the server, so install it on the server and on every player's game. It runs only with the loader its build was made for, installed for the same Minecraft version.
Can I use Macaw's Roofs in a modpack?
Yes. The creators allow modpack use as long as you credit them and reference the Modrinth page. The project is listed as all rights reserved and links no source code, so those two conditions are the permission stated.
Will Macaw's Roofs be backported to older Minecraft releases?
A backport to 1.15.2 and lower is very unlikely, according to the creator's page. A final 1.12.2 release could happen at some point, but nothing is promised. Current builds target newer releases only.
