No Template Netherite Tool Upgrades [PurpurPack]

by PurpurMC

No Template Netherite Tool Upgrades lets players upgrade netherite tools without the smithing upgrade template, which the vanilla recipe normally requires.

What it does

The pack changes only the tool upgrade recipes; armor still needs the upgrade template. Fabric API is required. The mod is placed in the mods folder and works alongside vanilla on a Purpur server. Only the server needs it, and players may add it without any effect. Released under the MIT License, it is open source, and files cover 1.20 – 26.2.

Key features

  1. Template-free tool upgrades

    Netherite tools can be upgraded at the smithing table without the upgrade template item.

  2. Armor recipes unchanged

    Netherite armor keeps its vanilla upgrade recipe, which still asks for the template.

  3. Recipe warnings

    Removing the pack after a world has upgraded tools can cause console warnings about missing recipes, so the save should be backed up first.
