Create Chromatic Return
by phicc
Create Chromatic Return, a NeoForge expansion for Create, adds seven alloys and two end-game tools to the Create automation world.
What it does
Chromatic Return adds seven new alloys, several of which are cast and machined into custom components. Shadow Steel serves as a base mineral in casting tool parts, letting players build bespoke items with strong stats. Refined Radiance is a light, magical metal, while Multiplite is described as the core material for creating energy-related machinery. Anti-Plite is the opposite of Multiplite, and it is also unstable. Some alloys have specific effects: one raises the yield of gems from certain ores, and another allows spawners to be harvested with a silk-touch-like effect.
The mod is built around Create. Create must be installed alongside it, because the alloys, casting and machine components depend on Create's systems. Files target NeoForge 1.21.1 only. Chromatic Return is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, and it was first published and last updated on 2025-03-04.
