Create Progress Faster!
by DeVenture
Create Progress Faster! is a Forge add-on for Create that speeds up early-game progress through a handful of new tools and items.
What it does
The add-on sits on top of Create and needs it to run; Create is the only required dependency, and Just Enough Items (JEI) is optional for browsing the new recipes. It changes nothing on the client, so only the server needs the mod installed and players join without it. Files are published for Forge and target 1.20.1 alone, with 1.0.0 as the latest file from 2024-03-20.
The new content centers on a Handy Hammer, a tool crafted in a crafting table with an ingot placed in the inventory crafting slot, and on a Super Sledge Hammer meant for combat in the early game. Other additions include a portable kiln for early ore smelting, a portable mortar and pestle for making dusts, and a dense woolen fabric crafted from wool that is used to make conveyor belts. The author notes say the mod was built with MCreator and that more tools and work progress content are planned, but no release for those is listed here.

Use cases

Players working through Create's first stages can use the hammer, kiln and mortar to reach the next steps sooner.
Server-side installs
Server owners add the mod to a Create server, and players connect without installing anything extra.
Who it’s for: Players who already run Create on Forge 1.20.1 and want quicker early-game tools, and server owners who want to add them without requiring client installs.
How it compares
Wooden hammer is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that runs on client and server and is released under All rights reserved, so it covers the same version with a different tool set. Just Hammers Backport targets Forge 1.12.2 and is under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, a different version and license. Arda's Hammers [Hammer Mod] is under All rights reserved licensing for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 1.21.8, covering loaders this add-on does not target.
