Shimmer Mod

World Generation

Minecraft now features small underground grottos filled with the unique Shimmer liquid. These caves form just beneath the surface, so be careful not to accidentally fall into them while exploring.

Phasing Ability

Coming into contact with Shimmer liquid puts your character into a special phase state. Your body becomes intangible, you lose the ability to act, and you begin to slowly sink through solid blocks. Control only returns when you enter an empty space or cavity in the ground.

Item Deconstruction

Certain items that fall into Shimmer undergo reverse transformation and break down into the component materials they were created from.

For pack developers: items tagged with shimmer:dont_uncraft will not be deconstructed. Items tagged with shimmer:dont_uncraft_into block the selection of recipes containing these items when deconstructing other objects.

Transmutation

A special category of items undergoes deeper transformation and acquires completely new unique properties. The result can be something familiar or completely unexpected and unknown.

For developers: the transmutation process is controlled through game data, allowing new options to be easily added via datapacks. Transmutation takes priority over item deconstruction.
