craft
by duardodv12
craft changes several crafting recipes in survival, turning rare or hard-to-make items into ones players can produce with common materials.
What it does
Some items that are normally rare or impossible to craft become available through recipes built from ordinary resources. The Name Tag is made from paper, string and an iron ingot, the Enchanted Golden Apple from eight gold blocks and a golden apple, and the Wither Skeleton Skull from two skulls combined with coal and bone. Leather can be obtained by smelting rotten flesh in a furnace, and an Upgrade Template can be crafted from diamonds and netherrack.
The mod is aimed at players who want a smoother survival progression without using commands or cheats. Recipes are configurable, so server owners can adjust them to fit their balance. It is installed on both the server and the client, and it is published for Forge and NeoForge. The files target 1.20.1 – 1.21.5, with builds for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.4 and 1.21.5, and the latest Forge file is 1.0 for 1.20.1 and the latest NeoForge file is 1.0 for 1.21.1. The code is closed and all rights are reserved.
Key features
Craftable name tags
Name tags can be crafted from paper, string and an iron ingot instead of being found only in chests.
Enchanted golden apples from gold blocks
An enchanted golden apple is made from eight gold blocks surrounding a golden apple.
Wither skeleton skulls
Two skulls, coal and bone combine into a wither skeleton skull, so the item no longer needs a wither fight.
Leather from rotten flesh
Smelting rotten flesh in a furnace produces leather, giving an early source of the material.
Configurable recipes
Each recipe can be changed in the configuration files, letting server owners tune the difficulty.
