Anvil Rework Unlimited
Anvil Rework Unlimited removes the vanilla anvil level cap on Fabric, so repair and enchanting costs stay predictable for players who use anvils often.
What it does
Vanilla anvils refuse operations whose cost passes a fixed level ceiling. This mod lifts that limit and keeps the familiar rules of enchantment compatibility intact. Costs above 39 levels are shown with their real value rather than being clipped, and enchantment levels stay within the normal maximum unless the JSON configuration explicitly allows more.
A worn anvil can be restored with iron ingots, and each anvil can wear out through a configurable chance of damage per use. Renaming an item costs 1 level by default, and a maximum price can be set for every operation. Material repairs still raise the prior-work penalty on future operations, so long projects grow more expensive over time.
Anvil Rework Unlimited is built on Minecraft Java Edition 1.20.1 with Fabric Loader and runs on Java 17. It uses the vanilla screens and standard registries, which lets it stay compatible with Sodium, Lithium and JEI/REI content mods. It requires Fabric API, and it is released under the MIT License but is not open source. Files exist only for 1.20.1.
