can't obtain
can't obtain is a NeoForge utility mod for Minecraft 1.21.4 that gives items with no block form, which the game leaves unobtainable in survival.
What it does
The mod adds item forms for unused and unobtainable blocks in the Java and Bedrock editions. Items that have no block form in the game can be found through the operator items tab, where the enable tab setting must be turned on in the configuration. The mod runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it.
A tweak for those who edit their own inventory or creative builds, the mod is simple and only adds the missing item forms. Its author lists modpack credits as a requirement for redistribution. The license is MIT, and the source is not open source.
