ForgeServer-side onlyMIT License1.20.1

What it does

Create: Better Smithing Templates adds a route to Netherite upgrade smithing templates that runs through Create machinery. Polished Diamond is made by sanding Diamond, and Netherrack Shard comes from stonecutting Netherrack. A Sequenced Assembly recipe combines both items into the templates, and because the chain relies on Create recipes, the process can be repeated without limit.

The mod is a lightweight addition made mainly for a multiplayer server shared with a friend, and it adds only a few items and recipes. It is for Forge on Minecraft 1.20.1 and needs Create, which must be installed alongside it. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. The code is under the MIT License, but the project is not open source. The author states that ongoing updates for newer versions are not promised, and the mod may be used freely.

  3. Sequenced Assembly template recipe
