[Ecentrix] Progressive Furnaces

by Ecentrix

Progressive Furnaces replaces the single furnace with a set of furnace tiers that smelt faster as a player upgrades them, keeping the vanilla smelting loop intact.

What it does

Each tier smelts faster than the one before it, so progress through the furnace line is gradual rather than a single jump. The upgrades use vanilla-style recipes and textures, so the furnaces read as a natural extension of the base game instead of a new system to learn.

The mod is built for survival worlds and modpacks that want a steady progression path without heavy complexity. It requires Fabric API and [Ecentrix] Progressive Core, and it works alongside existing mechanics without replacing them. Progressive Core supplies the shared systems that keep the two mods compatible over time. Both the server and every player need the mod installed, and the files target 1.21.10 – 1.21.11 on Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Multiple furnace tiers

    Several furnace tiers are available, each with a higher smelting speed than the last.

  2. Upgrade-based progression

    Players move from one tier to the next through a clear upgrade path rather than all tiers being available from the start.

  3. Vanilla-style recipes and visuals

    Recipes and textures follow the look of the vanilla furnace, so the blocks fit into existing builds.

  4. Balanced survival pacing

    The tier speeds are paced for survival play and suit modpacks that already use vanilla smelting.
