Overview of Macaw's Roofs
Macaw's Roofs is a Minecraft modification created by author sketchmacaw and categorized under Building & Decoration. Rather than forcing builders to construct slanted rooftops using stair blocks, this project introduces dedicated structural elements engineered specifically for roofing. It forms an integral part of the broader Macaw's Mod collection, which also encompasses related decorative additions such as Macaw's Bridges, Macaw's Furniture, Macaw's Windows, Macaw's Doors, and Macaw's Trapdoors.
Architectural Features and Blocks
The mod expands building options by introducing specialized components with varied slopes and profiles. Players can construct structures using standard Roofs, Steep Roofs, Lower Roofs, and Top Roofs to create diverse angles across their builds. In addition to main roofing blocks, the project provides decorative and functional exterior accents such as Awnings and Rain Gutters. Striped Awnings are available in each color, offering bright canopies for shopfronts and entryways. Rain Gutters also come in each color and feature interactive mechanics, gradually filling up whenever rain falls in the surrounding environment.
Compatibility and System Requirements
Macaw's Roofs operates under specific environment parameters. On multiplayer setups, the mod requires installation on both the client side and the server side to maintain proper synchronization. Supported mod loaders include Fabric, Neoforge, and Forge. Look, regarding game releases, supported Minecraft versions are 26.2, 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1, and 1.21.11. Regarding older releases, backporting to 1.15.2 and lower is very unlikely, though the author has noted that a last 1.12.2 version could happen at some time.
Licensing, Modpacks, and Community Guidelines
The project is published under the LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved license. Players assembling modpacks are permitted to include the mod, provided they credit the creator and include a direct reference to the Modrinth page. For feedback and technical support, the community maintains strict channels. Bug reports must be submitted exclusively to the GitHub issue tracker, as feature suggestions are kept separated on a dedicated suggestion repository or discussed within the official Macaw's Discord server. Players who have created localized translations can submit their language files through GitHub or through the Macaw's Discord server.
