Immersive Wood

Crafting-table planks are disabled, so wood is processed by hand: logs are set on a Chopping Block and split with an axe to produce planks. Unlit campfires are placed unlit by default and must be lit by hand, and a Primitive Fire Starter ignites fires by holding right-click to rub sticks together. A new flint toolset covers pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe and sword, with flint gravel knapped into axe heads.

The mod overhauls early progression by removing magic crafting, which suits survival playthroughs and modpacks that want more involved starting content. Version 2.0.0 and later target Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge, where active development now takes place. The 1.20.1 Forge version remains available with its older feature set. Features such as knapping use a JSON-based custom chopping recipe system, and modpack developers can add their own input and output pairs with KubeJS. Vanilla wooden and stone tools still exist, and the author advises customizing their tiers.
