Matcha flavoured but its backported - datapack
by zvziaj
Matcha flavoured is a NeoForge data pack that backports Matcha's food items to Minecraft 1.21.1, with its newer item definitions rebuilt as separate NeoForge items.
What it does
The data pack adapts Matcha's item definitions for 1.21.1, so the matcha-flavoured foods, tomato equipment and other new ingredients from the source work on that version. Copper tools, shears, weapons and armor are adapted to 1.21.1 as well, and alloy equipment keeps the properties it had before.
Crafting recipes have been adjusted so ingredient matching works with overlapping Farmer's Delight ingredients, and the mod is listed as compatible with other food mods that add items of their own. Villager trades are recreated through the mod, with farm animal trades giving usable spawn eggs. Farm animal variants are replaced with ordinary cows and pigs, and the resource pack models and textures are converted into formats that 1.21.1 understands.
The mod is built for NeoForge and is published for 1.21.1 only. Server owners install it on the server, and players who join that server do not need it, because only the server has to run it. The license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0, and the project is not open source.
