Disc Construction
by Lumegrin
Disc Construction lets players craft music discs from materials that are harder to obtain, such as gold ingots, redstone dust and ender pearls.
What it does
The mod changes how music discs are made. Instead of a single vanilla recipe, discs are assembled from a set of gems, minerals and plant materials, including amethyst shards, lapis lazuli, nether quartz, chorus fruit and torchflower seeds. Each disc takes its own compatible combination, so the recipes are tied to the discs they produce.
Installation needs a server, and the server is the side that must run the mod. Players may add it on their client, but a player who joins without it can still play on the server. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and for Data pack, with files covering 1.20 and 1.20.1. The Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt builds are all version 1.0+mod for 1.20.1, released 2025-05-26, and the code is all rights reserved, not open source.
Key features
Gem-based disc recipes
Discs are crafted from gems and minerals, so each recipe uses materials that take effort to gather.
Plant and mineral inputs
Chorus fruit, torchflower seeds, glowstone and redstone dust join the recipe pool for disc crafting.
Disc-specific recipes
Each music disc has its own compatible ingredients, rather than sharing one generic crafting pattern.
Recipe gallery screenshots
The author text includes screenshots of the crafting recipes so players can check ingredients before gathering.
