Create Recycling V2

by random_revilo

Create Recycling V2 is a NeoForge storage mod that generates Crushing Wheel recipes to break items back down into their base materials.

NeoForgeServer-side onlyAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

Throw unwanted items into Crushing Wheels and the mod works out their base materials, then returns those materials to the output. The recipe list is read as the server boots and turned into a virtual datapack, so no JSON files need to be edited by hand. Recipes cover nearly every item that has a crafting recipe, while things like wood planks, glass panes and waxed blocks are skipped so JEI is not cluttered with broken recipes.

Full blocks such as iron blocks and slime blocks, along with Create alloys, give back their full material. Regular items return a set base amount with an added percentage roll for the remainder, which keeps the yields balanced. The mod requires Create, runs on the server only, and is published for NeoForge on 1.21.1 as a single release, 1.0-RELEASE, dated 2026-05-01. The mod is licensed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Reverse recipe generation

    Crushing Wheel recipes are generated for nearly every crafted item, so players can reclaim materials from surplus stock.

  2. Smart yields

    Full blocks return their complete materials, while regular items return a set base amount plus a percentage roll for the rest.

  3. Automatic filtering

    Items that should not be crushed, such as wood planks, glass panes and waxed blocks, are left out of the generated recipes.

  4. No manual configuration

    A virtual datapack is built from the recipe registry at server start, so the recipes need no hand-written JSON.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players and server owners running Create on NeoForge 1.21.1 who want to recover materials from unwanted items. Because it runs on the server only, players join without installing it.

Questions

Does Create Recycling V2 require Create?

Yes. Create is a required dependency, so it must be installed alongside the mod on NeoForge 1.21.1.

Do players need to install Create Recycling V2?

No. Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod.

Why are some items not crushed?

Items such as wood planks, glass panes and waxed blocks are filtered out, so the generated recipes only cover items that can be broken down usefully.

What the author says

I had ported their Fabric version just to update it to Create 6 but it was still terrible so that is now private. Let me know on Github by reporting issues if you want a less buggy Fabric version!
