alloys
by strixun
Alloys, a datapack from strixun, layers ten extra metal tiers onto Minecraft 26.2 and later, each with its own ore drops, ingots and full toolsets.
What it does
The content is delivered as a datapack, with an optional Paper plugin for server owners. Ore drops from vanilla ores are kept as they are, and the mod adds extra rolls on top, so the vanilla loot always drops first. Each breakable ore can also yield one of four mined fragments.
Nine matching fragments craft into one alloy ingot, and the recipes for the ten alloys are additive, so vanilla recipes stay in place. Alloy gear draws on alloys:ingots tags. Gameplay works without the companion resource pack, which supplies distinct textures for the ingots and fragments, but missing textures appear until it is installed. It is required on the server and optional for players. Files are published for 26.2 and 26.3 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, under All rights reserved.
