How to Update Shrines structures mod to version 2.x.x from 1.8.1 (Untested)

This is only necessary if you want to update to a version below 2.0.0-rc2. Since 2.0.0-rc2 you don’t need to follow these steps because Shrines makes them for you

Updating shrines structures from 1.8.1 to 2.0.0 doesn’t work smoothly, but there are ways for you to prevent these problems. The main problem is that some structure keys (the name you need to enter for the /locate command) were changed and minecraft tells you all the time that there are structures missing. You can see that when there are lines in your log ‘Missing Structure Start: shrines:high_tempel’ or something similar.

You can prevent all these issues if you just create a new world and don’t use old worlds anymore, but if you (understandably) don’t want to delete all your worlds you can follow these steps:

  1. Download the latest Shrines structures release from major version 2.x.x and place it in you mods folder
  2. Download Compatibility Structures package here
  3. Extract that archive to your Packets’ directory inside your shrines-saves directory
    1. Shrines-saves is a directory inside your minecraft directory (where that is depends on your installation)
    2. If that directory doesn’t exist, create it
  4. Now you should be able to start the game and use shrines structures version 2.x.x without problem

Conclusion:
That is a very easy solution and shouldn’t bring any problems to you, but please note that you shouldn’t use this workaround if you don’t need to. That is just because we can’t ensure that we will be able to provide that workaround for all future versions. You also won’t be able to use the structure keys, but that shouldn’t be a serious problem
