MoreFun
by Hong_SZ
MoreFun is a server-side mod that adds extra recipes to the game, loaded through datapacks and a reload command.
What it does
The mod ships a set of additional crafting recipes that become available once a world loads them. Recipes arrive as a packet with a number of new entries, and players craft the added items the same way they craft vanilla ones. Adding the recipes to a world means placing the provided datapacks in the world folder and running a reload, so the change takes effect without restarting the server.
Because the content is delivered through datapacks, MoreFun works on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt alike, and it also suits servers running the data pack route. Only the server has to run the mod, so players join without changing anything. Files are published for 1.17.1 – 1.21.4 across 21 release versions, and the latest file, 1.4+mod for 1.21.4, dates from 2024-12-15.

How it compares
Recibles is server-side with the same environment and loaders, but its license is All rights reserved and it is not open source, and its files cover 1.18 – 26.2. TaggableItems also runs server-side and covers 1.16 – 1.21.10, licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 and not open source. 1.21.6 Recipes Backport targets 1.18 – 1.21.11 under All rights reserved, so it differs from MoreFun in its license and range.
