IngotCraft
by jahirtrap
IngotCraft gives Equipment players ingots, nuggets, blocks and tools for several base metals, each with a matching set of raw ores and crafting recipes.
What it does
The mod covers steel, bronze, lead, silver, tin and copper. Each metal comes with raw ore, raw block, ingot, ingot block and nugget forms, and steel and bronze also add tools and armor. Copper is the one metal that adds only a nugget. Crafting is kept simple, so a player can move from ore to finished material without a long chain of steps.
The tool sets cover pickaxe, hammer, and the usual pick-style and sword-style tiers from stone through netherite, with extra tiers for enderite, steel, bronze and zurite. An enderite addition extends the progression past netherite. Every metal is built on shared tags, which lets other mods recognize the materials and read them as the same items.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 34 release versions, 1.12.2 – 26.3. It is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it installed. The code is not open source, and the source code and issue tracker are available through public links, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Six base metals
Steel, bronze, lead, silver, tin and copper each have their own raw ore, ingot, block and nugget forms.
Steel and bronze gear
Steel and bronze add a full tool set and armor, with pickaxe, hammer and tier variants.
Tier progression
Tools run from stone through netherite, plus enderite, steel, bronze and zurite tiers.
Shared tags
Materials use common item tags, so other mods can treat IngotCraft ingots and blocks as the same materials.

How it compares
Bronze Armor is a Fabric and Forge armor mod for 1.20.1, released under the MIT License, and it covers only armor, while IngotCraft adds metals and tools across more loaders and versions. Enderite Upgrade is for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 1.17 – 1.21.10, and it works on the server while the client may leave it out, whereas IngotCraft must be installed on both the client and the server. More Vanilla Tools adds tool variants for 1.20.1 on Fabric and Forge under the MIT License, a narrower range than IngotCraft.
