Just Some Little Tweaks
by CrowFaced
Just Some Little Tweaks adds a small set of crafting recipes for Forge 1.20.1, covering leather, leads, elytra and horse armor.
What it does
The mod contributes recipes that were not in vanilla Minecraft, such as smelting zombie flesh into leather and crafting a lead from string and slime. It also adds recipes for iron, gold and diamond horse armor, and an elytra recipe that pairs with the Elegant Elytras mod. Some recipes are included alongside other mods, so the mod is mainly intended for modpack builders and modded server owners who want a few convenience recipes.
Only Forge 1.20.1 is supported, with the latest file, 1.1.1, dated 2026-08-01. Later builds for other game versions are mentioned by the author as a possibility, not as published files. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The project is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Published on 2024-11-09 and last updated on 2026-08-01.
Key features
Leather from zombie flesh
Zombie flesh can be smelted into leather in a furnace, adding a route to leather that does not depend on cows.
Lead recipe
A lead is crafted from string and slime, so the item can be made without a trip to a mob that drops it.
Horse armor recipes
Iron, gold and diamond horse armor each gain a crafting recipe.
Elytra recipe
An elytra recipe that works with Elegant Elytras makes the fancier elytra variants easier to obtain.

Who it’s for: Modpack builders and server owners who want a small set of extra crafting recipes, not a large content mod, will find the mod's scope matches their needs.
How it compares
R`s Crafts is server-side only, is published for 1.20.1 and is not open source. Craft that Horse Armor is a client and server mod under the MIT License, covering 1.20 – 1.20.1 on Forge, so it overlaps with the horse armor recipes here. slime crafting recipe is published for Forge and NeoForge 1.20.1 – 1.21.8, and only the server needs it; players can join without installing it.
