Ars is Botania

This mod creates deep integration between two popular magical modifications — Ars Nouveau and Botania. The main feature of the mod is the unification of their energy systems, allowing items and blocks from Ars Nouveau to consume Botania's mana, and vice versa.

Main Features

The mod provides full compatibility between magical systems, turning both mods into a single harmonious experience. Besides energy integration, Ars is Botania introduces visual changes to Ars Nouveau's interfaces and effects, adapting them to Botania's aesthetic style.

Configuration Recommendation: For optimal game balance, it is recommended to disable passive mana generation in Ars Nouveau's configuration, as this preserves the value of Botania's mana generation systems.
