Do not keep both - two libraries claiming the same block classes means neither will load. Update this mod and Window Display at the same time, since both now ask for the new id.<br><br>Server owners: the library is needed on client and server alike, so everyone connecting has to update too. Anything that fetches mods by id wants <code style="background: #2a2a2a; padding: 1px 4px; border-radius: 3px; color: #d1a457;">universaldisplaylib</code> from now on.<br><br><strong style="color: #d1a457;">Your worlds are safe.</strong> No block codes changed and no recipes changed - including the conversion recipes below.

If the game has ever told it how to sit on a shelf, it inherits that and turns up at the right size on its own.</p> <p style="color: #b0b0b0;">This mod is for the ones that do not. Two cases come up:</p> <ul style="list-style-type: none; padding-left: 0; margin: 10px 0;"> <li style="position: relative; padding-left: 25px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><span style="color: #b5893d; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.2rem; position: absolute; left: 5px; top: -2px;">•</span><strong>Items with no display data at all.</strong> These cannot be put on a window in the first place - the game simply refuses them. A lot of mod items fall in here, since their authors had no reason to think about shelves. A patch is what makes them placeable.</li> <li style="position: relative; padding-left: 25px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><span style="color: #b5893d; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.2rem; position: absolute; left: 5px; top: -2px;">•</span><strong>Items that are simply too big.</strong> Plenty of things are sized for a shelf or the ground and look ridiculous on a window ledge, or will not fit at all. These get scaled and measured to something that suits a sill.</li> </ul> <p style="color: #b0b0b0;">Sizes are worked out from the actual model and then checked by eye in game, not guessed. Where an item family shares one entry - all the antlers, all the amulets - it is sized off the largest one so nothing overhangs.</p> <h3 style="color: #b5893d; font-size: 1.25rem; margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px; text-transform: uppercase; border: none; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Gives candles their flame</h3> <p>Put a candle or an oil lamp on a sill and it lights the room either way - that part is Universal Display Lib and needs nothing from here. What this mod adds is the <strong>flame and the smoke</strong>: the ac
