Craftables
by SmarterCob
Craftables changes recipes and textures so that chainmail armor, horse armor, name tags and powered rails can be crafted and look closer to vanilla.
What it does
The mod changes recipes so that crafting feels closer to vanilla Minecraft. Chainmail helmets, chestplates, leggings and boots can be crafted, and iron, golden and diamond horse armor and name tags are added to the recipe list. Textures are altered to match the new recipes.
The author's example is powered rails, which use copper instead of gold in this mod, so copper gets a larger role in the game and not only an easier way to obtain items. Every recipe in the mod is listed on the mod page. Craftables runs on Fabric only and is published for 1.21 and 1.21.1, with the 1.0.0 file for 1.21.1 as the latest. It is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and the code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which is not open source.
Key features
Chainmail armor recipes
Chainmail helmets, chestplates, leggings and boots can be crafted in place of being found only in the world.
Horse armor and name tags
Iron, golden and diamond horse armor and name tags are added as craftable items.
Copper powered rails

Adjusted textures
Some textures are changed to match the new recipes, so items look consistent with how they are made.
