About this Mod
Beltborne Lanterns: Accessories Layer
Compatibility bridge between Beltborne Lanterns and Accessories (WispForest).
Equip your lantern in the Accessories Belt slot — it works just like the default belt: sways with physics, casts dynamic light, and keeps your hands free.
🧩 What it does
- Registers all Beltborne Lanterns items as valid Belt accessories.
- Syncs the belt state — equipping via Accessories or pressing B both work seamlessly.
- Fully client & server: renders the lantern on other players and emits light for everyone.

⚙️ Requirements
- Beltborne Lanterns — the core mod
- Accessories — the accessory API by WispForest
🔧 For Modpack Makers
By default, lanterns can only be placed in the Belt slot. You can customize this by editing config/bl_accessories_layer.json (auto-generated on first launch):
{
"allowed_slots": ["belt"]
}
To allow additional slots (e.g. charm, necklace), add them to the list:
{
"allowed_slots": ["belt", "charm", "necklace"]
}
No datapacks or item tags are needed — the mod handles slot validation automatically.
