Compat Artifacts

by FixerLink

Compat Artifacts adds integrations that let the artifacts from Artifacts appear in several other installed mods, for players who want more artifacts from the mods they already use.

What it does

Once Compat Artifacts is installed next to Artifacts and Compat API, each supported mod that is present in the game brings its own artifacts with it. The mod ships 16 integrations, covering a broad range of content from other mods. Artifacts from a mod that is not installed do not load, so the game only gains what is actually present.

Each integrated artifact has its own effect, and the tooltip explains it. Some work in unusual ways, and most are built around the mechanics of the mod that supplies them. Most artifacts drop from Mimics, while others appear only in dungeons and bosses added by the integrated mods. Individual integrations can be turned off in the config file. Compat Artifacts runs on the client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is published for Forge and NeoForge under a custom license that is not open source. Files exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1.

Key features

  1. Artifacts from installed mods

    Each supported mod that is installed adds its artifacts to the game automatically, and missing mods add nothing.

  2. Sixteen integrations in one install

    Installing this single mod replaces a set of separate addons, and it adds roughly five more artifacts for each supported mod.

  3. Mod-specific dungeons and bosses

    Some artifacts come from dungeons and bosses added by the integrated mods, not from Mimics.

  4. Balanced artifact effects

    Artifacts were tested in normal survival modpacks, and each effect is shown in its tooltip.

  5. Updated artifact textures

    The artifact textures were updated with added 3D detail, so the items read more clearly in inventory.

  6. Config control

    Specific integrations can be disabled in the config file, so a server can keep only the content it wants.

How it compares

Full comparison

Relics: Arcane Abilities is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.19.2 – 1.21.1, closed to modification under All rights reserved, and it is client and server. Power Artifacts + Underground Boxes is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License and is not open source, also client and server. Ancient Artifacts 2 is server required with client optional, released under a Creative Commons non-commercial license, and targets 1.21.5 – 26.2, so it does not overlap with the 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 builds of this mod.

Questions

Does Compat Artifacts need Artifacts installed?

Yes. Artifacts and Compat API are both required dependencies, so both must be present alongside Compat Artifacts.

Which loaders are supported?

The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge only, with Forge 1.0.0 for 1.20.1 and NeoForge 1.0.0 for 1.21.1.

Do the artifacts from a mod appear if that mod is not installed?

No. Artifacts from a supported mod load only when that mod is installed, so a missing mod adds nothing to the game.
