Craft Saddle

by Jodek

Craft Saddle lets a server add saddle crafting recipes, so players can make a saddle from ingredients instead of finding one.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21 – 1.21.5

What it does

The mod is a datapack-style addition that registers a crafting recipe for saddles on servers. Players who join a server running it can craft the item at a crafting table once the recipe is available. The same saddle recipe is available in singleplayer worlds when the datapack is added during world creation or activated afterward.

Installing the mod on a server is required, and the server needs it to provide the recipe. Clients can run it too, but a player who joins without the mod still receives the crafted saddle from the server. Builds exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the mod is released under the MIT License as open source.

Files cover Minecraft 1.21 – 1.21.5, with v.1.0.0+mod for 1.21.5 as the most recent release on every loader, dated 2025-05-10.

Key features

  1. Saddle crafting recipe

  2. Datapack installation

    Can be added as a datapack when creating a world, or activated later from the datapack list in an existing world.

  3. Cheats and admin commands

  4. Server installation

    Instructions cover placing the mod on a multiplayer server alongside the datapack setup used in singleplayer.
