What it does

The mod lets players assemble their own spells from components instead of using a fixed set, and the spells can be built anywhere. Crafted baubles and trinkets add new effects, and magical machines draw on power produced in the game. Automated magical servants can take over tasks around a base. Forge and NeoForge are supported, with files covering 1.18.2 – 1.21.1 across 7 release versions. Ars Nouveau is required by 38 other mods, among them Ars Ocultas and Ars Additions. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.

  2. Magical baubles and trinkets
