Create builders

by Refmann

Create builders is a datapack-based add-on for Create that adds recipes for producing ores, dyes, obsidian and other materials.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.18.2 – 1.20.1

What it does

The mod ships as a datapack, so it adds recipes to Create rather than new blocks or items. Its recipes cover zinc production with asurine, copper with veridium, a more efficient iron route with crimsite, and a simpler automated path for gold with ochrum. Lapis asurine can be used to produce scoria, with lava and chocolate taking the place of water and cobblestone, redstone can be made into red dye from beetroot, and an alternate green dye recipe is offered for players who cannot find desert.

Two recipes are also listed as lagless ways to make obsidian. The recipes can be browsed in the recipes gallery tab of JEI or REI, which the author recommends for finding each one. Required dependencies are Create on Forge and NeoForge, and Create and Create Fabric on Fabric and Quilt. The server must run the datapack, while players may leave the mod out. Builds cover 1.18.2 – 1.20.1 and the license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Zinc from asurine

    A recipe route turns asurine into zinc for players who automate their Create factories.

  2. Copper from veridium

    Veridium is the input for a copper recipe added on top of the vanilla Create set.

  3. Faster iron and gold

    Crimsite gives a more efficient iron route, and ochrum offers a simpler automated gold source.

  4. Scoria and obsidian

    Lapis asurine can make scoria from lava and chocolate, and two recipes produce obsidian without lag.

Use cases

Automated factories

Server owners and players building Create production lines can add these routes to ore and material supply chains.

Who it’s for: Players who already run Create factories and want more recipe options for ores, dyes and obsidian. Server owners may also add the datapack to a world without requiring it on every client.
