Villager Guards
Villager Guards is a Minecraft datapack for Java Edition that brings active protection to villages on a Minecraft server. It introduces two guard roles, archers and swordsmen, who defend villagers against hostile creatures and can equip weapons, armor, and totems. Fletcher villagers can become archers when given a bow, while weaponsmith villagers can become swordsmen with an iron sword. A configuration function and tags let administrators adjust natural conversion and target bypass rules, while summon functions provide direct control. Because some villagers may convert randomly, existing trades can be lost. With BoxToPlay, this village defense feature fits naturally into multiplayer survival.
Chunk Pregenerator
Chunk Pregenerator is a Java Edition data pack that generates selected chunks before players reach them. By preparing terrain in advance, it reduces the stutters and pauses commonly caused by on demand world generation during fast travel.You can define a square area, choose its center, and set the desired radius in chunks, making it practical for planned exploration. It supports singleplayer and server side use across Minecraft Java versions from 1.21.5 to 1.21.11, as well as 26.1.x and 26.2. Larger areas require more time and resources, so sensible limits help protect performance. For a smoother Minecraft server experience, our BoxToPlay team recommends this useful optimization tool.
Better Fletching Tables (BFT)
Better Fletching Tables is a Minecraft Java datapack that turns the overlooked fletching table into a practical crafting station. It adds a dedicated interface for producing arrows, tipped arrows, and spectral arrows, giving bow focused players a more natural way to prepare ammunition on a Minecraft server.Normal arrow recipes yield six instead of four, while one potion can create up to 16, 32, or 64 tipped arrows depending on whether it is regular, splash, or lingering. Spectral arrows require only an arrow and glowstone dust. With BoxToPlay, this vanilla friendly gameplay improvement fits smoothly into survival adventures and multiplayer builds.
MSW Guns' Upswing
MSW Guns’ Upswing is a Java Edition datapack for Minecraft 1.20.1 that refines how selected firearms from Marium’s Soulslike Weaponry behave with Better Combat.
