Create Ars Nouveau
by KawasiZorro
With Create Ars Nouveau, the gears of Create and the glyphs of Ars Nouveau start to work together in one world.
What it does
The mod bridges the Create machinery mod and the magic mod Ars Nouveau. Its central piece is a burner built from a Blaze Burner and a Sorcerer Cage, which runs on Source, the magical energy of Ars Nouveau. Instead of coal or other blaze fuel, that energy is converted into mechanical heat for Create's mixers, compactors, basins and boilers.
Source Tubes extend the Source capacity of a burner, so the heat grows stronger as the tube expands. Together they let a quiet magical flame heat a forge or feed a superheated arcane engine. The Create Ars Compact part of the package turns Source power into motion for machinery, so spellcraft and mechanics share one energy path.
The mod runs on NeoForge and is built for 1.21.1 only. It needs both the server and each player to have it installed, and it is released under the MIT License, not as open source.
