Butchercraft: Tannery

by Trollmonkey

Butchercraft: Tannery turns raw hides from Butchercraft meat hooks into usable leather through a hide-tanning process that uses a Tanning Rack.

NeoForgeClient and serverCreative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.01.21.1

What it does

Meat hooks that once dropped leather now drop Raw Hides instead, so hides must be processed before they become leather. Hides are handled at a Tanning Rack, and the rack needs direct sunlight with a campfire placed two blocks below it to work. A player right-clicks a Raw Hide on the rack and scrapes it clean with a knife, then leaves it to cure for 60 seconds before it can be used as ready leather. The cure time can be changed in the config file.

The mod is an addon for Butchercraft and needs that mod to work. It runs on NeoForge only and is built for Minecraft 1.21.1. Client and server both need it, so every player on a server that runs it must install it too. The code is available publicly, but the mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Full hide-processing chain

    Tanning is a multi-step process that starts with a raw hide and ends with leather.

  2. Tanning Rack placement

    Before a Tanning Rack can process hides, it has to receive direct sunlight from above while a campfire sits two blocks beneath it.

  3. Knife scraping step

    Right-clicking a Raw Hide on the rack with a knife scrapes it clean for the next stage.

  4. Configurable cure time

    The 60-second curing period for hides can be adjusted in the config.
