NEI Resources
by Trollionaire
NEI Resources adds item source and progression details to NotEnoughItems on Minecraft 1.7.10, so a recipe view also shows where an item comes from.
What it does
Players browsing recipes in NotEnoughItems can open a resource page that lists how an item is obtained, including mob drops, ore generation with height ranges and biome data, and block world generation details. Reverse drop lookups show which mobs yield a given item, and mob spawn locations are listed with their biome spawning information. Entries also draw on acquisition details from individual mods.
Most of this information is discovered at runtime from the installed mods, and curated data covers mods that need custom handling. Pages list only what the current set of mods provides, so the content shifts with the modpack. The mod is built for Forge and targets only 1.7.10, where it works across vanilla and heavily modded setups alike.
NEI Resources needs NotEnoughItems Unofficial and CodeChickenCore Unofficial installed alongside it, and both must be present for the mod to function. Lord Rings Mod is also named among the supported content. Support for additional mods is planned for future updates.

Use cases
Finding a missing resource

Who it’s for: Players of Minecraft 1.7.10 who already use NotEnoughItems and want item sources in the same view, and server owners who want a shared reference for modpacks.
