Ennui's Bigger Gambiarra
by Ennui
Ennui's Bigger Gambiarra is a Fabric and Quilt compatibility patch that connects Ennui's Bigger Inventories with other storage mods through duct-taped workarounds.
What it does
The mod holds the compatibility code that lets Ennui's Bigger Inventories work alongside certain other mods. Installing it alongside Ennui's Bigger Inventories is necessary, and Fabric API must be present as well. Targeted mods are optional: where one of them is missing, its workaround simply does not apply. Players need it on their client, while the server can leave it out. Current builds target Minecraft 1.21.1, with files for 1.20.1, 1.21 and 1.21.1 across three release versions.
Key features
Mod compatibility layer
Workarounds connect Ennui's Bigger Inventories to other storage mods, and the author describes the approach as a messy but working hackjob.
Optional targets
Each workaround depends on its target mod being present, so nothing changes for mods that are not installed.
Future additions
The author plans to add more compatible mods over time, though the list will not cover every possible mod.
