by GamerPotionDev

DarkSmithing lets players craft smithing templates through custom recipes, so a specific armor trim can be made without searching for the template.

What it does

Players can craft Smithing Templates and Netherite upgrades with custom recipes, which lets them duplicate templates and reach a chosen armor trim directly. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing it. Fabric API is required, and builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.2 across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. The code is closed and released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Custom template recipes

    Crafting recipes produce smithing templates, so the same template can be made again without finding another one.

  2. Armor trim selection

    Players pick the armor trim they want by crafting its template, rather than hunting for one in the world.

  3. Netherite upgrades

    Netherite upgrade templates are craftable through the mod's recipes, adding a route to upgrade gear.
