Video: How to Mod Weapons and Items in Mini World: Block Art
In Mini World: Block Art, players have access to an array of necessary items for survival and creative building. However, to ensure your gaming experience remains engaging and less monotonous, modding items in the game is an exciting feature worth exploring. This feature utilizes Plugins to allow players to edit item parameters, alter their nature, skills, appearance, or even devise entirely new items.
To mod items in Mini World, you must first switch the language to Vietnamese. For a detailed guide, see this article.
Step 1: Start Mini World and click Start to access the interface for creating a new map.
Step 2: Click Plugin Warehouse to initiate item modding.
Inside the Plugin repository, you can modulate Squares, Creatures, Items, or change existing formulas. Click Create to add or edit items.

For Creatures, set health levels, attack damages, movement speed, and dropped items.
Modify monster attributes such as attack range, vision range, and attack skills.
Save your changes and return to the main menu.
2. How to Add Mods to the Game
Step 1: Click Create New World.
Step 2: In the Create Map Rule section, click Download Plugin to integrate your newly created mod into the map.
Click Add to include the modified item. Ensure you select the modified item.

Getting Started
To create a mod, start by making the following folder structure:
/ -- my_first_plugin_pack (your folder/pack name)
| -- behavior (behavior plugin, how the game is interpreted)
| -- actor (monsters/animals plugins)
| -- block (blocks plugins)
| -- item (items plugins)
| -- receipe (non specified)
| -- crafting (craft plugins)
| -- resource (resources folder, it's useless at the moment)
| -- models (.obj models)
| -- shader (shaders, no file extension found)
| -- sounds (.ogg sounds)
| -- textures (.png images)
| -- block (textures for blocks)
| -- entity (textures for entities)
| -- icon.png (the plugin icon, shown in Plugin Library)
| -- pack_manifest.json (the file that handles the metadata)
This is the necessary folder structure. Remember not to change the order of folders, or the pack may not function properly.
pack_manifest.json and its Components
Add the following structure to your pack_manifest.json file:
{
"name": "My First Plugin Pack",
"en_name": "My First Plugin Pack",
"description": "Hello World!",
"author": "Your Name Here",
"pack_version": "0.6",
"api_version": "0.14.0",
"mod_type": 0, // 0 for Plugin Pack
"uuid": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
}
This structure handles all the metadata for your pack. Replace 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' with your own UUID generated from Online UUID Generator.
Testing Your Plugin Pack
To use your Plugin Pack, transfer the Plugin Pack folder to your mods directory:
Windows: Press Win + R, input %appdata%, navigate to the folder miniworlddata410/data/mods
Android: Open File Explorer > search for miniplay/com.playmini.miniworld/data/mods
Congratulations on creating your first Plugin Pack! Start creating plugins to enhance your game.
