AlmirionCore
by Almirion
AlmirionCore is a Forge library that other mods load on startup to share initialization code and utility functions.
What it does
AlmirionCore is a small, lightweight core library built for Forge 1.12.2 mod projects. It adds no gameplay content of its own. Instead it supplies shared backend initialization and common utility functions that dependent mods can call, keeping that logic in one place. Mods that depend on it are required to have it installed in the mods folder alongside them.
Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is published for Forge 1.12.2 and 1.20.1, with version 1.0.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, released 2026-02-12. The code is not open source; the author holds all rights reserved.
Key features
Consistent loading
The core ensures that dependent mods load in a consistent order and with the same initialization behavior.
Shared utilities
Common helper functions live in the library, so dependent mods do not each carry their own copy.
Unobtrusive background role
The library stays in the background during play and changes nothing a player can see.
