Alloy Forgery

by Noaaan

With Alloy Forgery, players build a multiblock Alloy Forge from a controller and a ring of stone-like blocks to smelt alloys and raise ore yield.

What it does

The Alloy Forge is a multiblock smelter. A controller is crafted from a fixed pattern, and its outer ring of blocks sets the forge material. The structure can be completed from several block types that a given forge accepts, and a guide above the author text shows the layout. Out of the box the forge serves as a simple way to raise ore yield.

Everything in the mod is data-driven. Mod and modpack authors can add new forges and recipes, but forge types can only be introduced through other mods' datapacks or through global configuration files. By default three forge tiers exist, each with a different fuel capacity and speed. Alloy Forgery requires oωo (owo-lib) on every loader it supports. The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is under the MIT License, and the mod is open source. Files exist for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt across 19 release versions, 1.17 – 26.1.2, and snapshot builds are published.

Key features

  1. Multiblock alloy smelter

    The Alloy Forge is built from a controller and surrounding blocks, and it smelts alloys once the structure is complete.

  2. Three default forge tiers

    Each default tier is made from a different stone-like material and differs in fuel capacity and speed.

  3. Ore yield boost

    In its base configuration the forge increases the yield of ore processing, which is its main purpose out of the box.

  4. Data-driven recipes and forges

    Forge types and recipes are defined in data, so authors can extend the smelter without changing its code.

What the author says

Alloy Forgery adds a multiblock alloy smelter, the Alloy Forge. In its base configuration it serves as an easy way to increase ore yield, but everything is data-driven allowing you to add new forges and recipes as you please. These data-driven features are mostly intended for mod and modpack authors, especially…
