Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a Discord?

There was, but it's since been deleted; A new discord is unlikely to be created.

How do I use .nbt files?

Check out the Using NBT page for instructions on using .nbt files, and other related information.

Can I submit a Kit or Item?

Yes! The best way is to contact us is by DMing @kaddicus on Discord.

Who are the Archivists?

Kadalyst (aka Kad) is the only one working on the site currently.

Can I help the Archives?

Absolutely! We don't currently have a uniform list of things we need help with, check out our Contributing Guidelines, and To-Do List for an idea of what's expected and what's needed.

I'm interested in NBT, where should I start?

A good place to start is our Resources and Guides pages, where there is a lot of information for all things NBT Related.

What are Archivist Picks?

Archivist Picks (APs) are Kits and Items that are high quality, and/or have unique and interesting features. APs can be identified by a golden star (⭐) next to their name.

What are Archivist Assigned Names?

Archivist Assigned Names (AANs) are names Archivists have picked for Unnamed Kits. This allows the kits themselves to remain unaltered while providing a way to display and organize them.

Is there a bulk collection I can download?

There sure is! Our GitHub Releases has copies of this site, both as a whole and just the .nbt files.
Do note, that the releases almost always have less than the site, and are only made as milestones.

Important Information

Info:

⭐'s indicate kits recommended by Archivists.

Kits in the 'Unnamed Kits' page have no official name. As such, we have given them Archivist Assigned Names (AANs). Similarly, the files are suffixed with _[AAN] to help distinguish them from Named Kits. Should we ever find a named copy of a kit there (or the Author of the kit properly name it) we will move it to the main Kits page.

In the Item category, if an entry has "pre-X.Y.Z!" in its description, it is an item that only works in Minecraft versions prior to that. Some items have entries for pre- and post-versions, depending on how popular the item is/how complicated upgrading it is.



Notices:

Minecraft 1.20.0 broke Signs, and 1.20.2 will break Potions. If a Sign/Potion from a Kit does not work, please check the NBT as it likely uses the old format. We will NOT be upgrading kits to fix these issues, nor will we be marking kits that contain them. Thank you for your understanding.



Disclaimers:

Kadalyst is in no way responsible for how any entries were obtained, who downloads them, and how they are used. YOU are responsible for protecting the privacy of your items and the security of your server. Any and all complaints made pertaining to the privacy or use-case of an entry will be ignored. Basically: fuck you, you disingenuous dense shoe-fucker :D
