Create: Occult Engineering
Create: Occult Engineering connects the Create and Occultism mods, adding machines, rituals and items that let Create contraptions handle occult recipes.
What it does
Create: Occult Engineering is an integration mod for Create and Occultism, and both are required. Its additions cover automation: a Mechanical Chamber can run rituals without an external sacrifice item, a Mechanical Arm can load books into the chamber, and a Mechanical Pulverizer can crush dust. Occultism's crushing entities can also be placed to automate dust production.
The mod adds a Púca spirit, four base spirits joined by it, and new rituals. Chalk in copper, zinc and brass can be made and then drawn on the ground, giving the same effect as the standard chalk. Crafting uses a Spirit Solution to bind books in place of Dictionary Spirits. Translations are included for Spanish (Spain), French (France) and Portuguese (Brazil). The author notes that the mod targets Create 6.0.8 and that some functionality is not yet feature complete.
The mod is distributed for Forge and NeoForge across two release versions in the range 1.20.1 – 1.21.1. The latest files are 1.20.1-0.11.4 for Forge and 1.21.1-0.13.1 for NeoForge, both in the beta channel. It runs on client and server, and the source code is released under the MIT License.
