What farms does Shulker's Faithful Factories actually automate?

The mod upgrades farms that previously needed a player nearby or some manual step to fully run on their own. This covers crops, mob drops, and other resources that vanilla leaves in a semi-automatic state.

Do I need Forge or does this work with Fabric?

This mod requires Minecraft Forge. It does not have a Fabric version.

Will this break my existing survival world?

No. The mod adds new automation options but doesn't change existing mechanics. You can add it to a world you're already playing without anything breaking.

Does this work alongside tech mods like Create or Thermal Expansion?

Generally yes. It's a small, targeted mod so conflicts are uncommon. If you're running a heavy modpack, check the mod's page for any known issues.

Where do I put the mod file after downloading?

Put the .jar file in your .minecraft/mods folder. If that folder doesn't exist, create it. Then launch Minecraft using the Forge profile.

Shulker's Faithful Factories Mod 1.16.5, 1.15.2 Download

Shulker’s Faithful Factories is a Forge mod that does one thing well: it takes farms that needed player input and makes them run on their own. No new dimensions, no complex crafting trees. Just better automation for players who want their resource production to actually work while they do other things.

It’s built around vanilla sensibilities. Everything here fits in with how Minecraft already works, so nothing feels tacked on or out of place. If you enjoy the technical side of the game and want more to work with, this is worth picking up.

Features

Fully Automatic Farms

Items that were previously stuck in semi-automatic territory now run without player intervention. Set up the farm once and let it run. Crops, mob drops, and other resources that used to require you to be there can now produce on their own.

Renewable Resources

The mod focuses on making useful resources renewable. It’s not about adding infinite supplies of everything, just filling in gaps where vanilla left things semi-farmable but not fully so. Long-term survival worlds benefit a lot from this.

Stays Vanilla-Friendly

This mod adds to what’s already there. Nothing gets replaced or overhauled. If you handed a vanilla player your world, they wouldn’t notice anything weird. It’s a clean addition.
