Overworld Reforged
by Lunalii
Overworld Reforged adds tools, materials and an underground ore for Forge players who want alternative progression past the vanilla diamond and netherite tiers.
What it does
Overworld Reforged introduces a set of hammers and mallets built around the idea of giving items that were previously useless a purpose. Its content is meant to complement the vanilla progression rather than overshadow it, widening the options available between early tools and late-game gear. Breaking blocks with one of these hammers can clear several blocks in a straight line or a 3x3 area in a single action, and the mallet line reveals a stagnant crystal when a block is struck with it.
The new material, Overthium, is found as hidden stratite in stone patches that generate underground. Shards gathered from it combine with iron ingots through smithing to make an Overthium ingot, and the upgrade keeps iron at the same power level as diamond. Overthium gear works the same way as netherite diamond upgrades. A moss catalyst, crafted from three bone meal and one moss, revitalizes blocks when they are broken.
Both the Overthium smithing hammer and the smithing template needed to craft them are found mostly in underground chests, with certain village chests also holding them. The mod runs on Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1 and is published under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license, which is not open source. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.
