forgematica Patch Mod
by filipwood
The forgematica Patch mod fixes an access error that stops Forgematica 0.4.2 from loading on NeoForge for Minecraft 1.21.1.
What it does
The patch targets a compatibility problem between Forgematica and the current NeoForge build on Minecraft 1.21.1. Without it, Forgematica can fail with an IllegalAccessError caused by access to a private BufferBuilder field. The patch resolves that issue through a small Mixin compatibility layer, so Forgematica's own files are left unmodified.
Forgematica and MaFgLib must both be installed alongside this patch, since MaFgLib is a required dependency. The patch is limited to the compatibility fix and does not change how Forgematica behaves in other respects. Its only effect is restoring the mod's ability to run on this NeoForge build.
The patch is client-side only, so the server does not need it. Files are published for NeoForge and cover Minecraft 1.21.1 only, with version 1.0.0 for 1.21.1 as the latest file, released on 2026-07-11. The code is licensed under the Apache License 2.0, and the project is not open source.
Key features
Private field access fix
Resolves an IllegalAccessError that occurs when Forgematica reads the private building field of BufferBuilder.
Mixin compatibility layer
Applies its change through a small set of Mixins, so the Forgematica jar itself stays as the author published it.
Schematic and time unchanged
The patch leaves schematic handling and the time setting in worlds as they are, changing only the compatibility behavior.
