Sophie's Better Tables

by Bentcheesee

Sophie's Better Tables is a Forge and NeoForge datapack mod that revamps loot tables and recipes across base Minecraft and several other mods.

ForgeNeoForgeServer-side onlyCustom license1.19.2 – 1.21.1

What it does

The mod changes what many blocks and items drop and how they are crafted. Drops include ranging chances for bonus stone and ore items, and Shulker Shells are balanced as well. Recipes are rebuilt for compatibility with the installed mods, so modded sands and gravels from mods such as Biomes O' Plenty and Clayworks are handled alongside vanilla ones. The changes depend on which mods are present, so the same pack can produce different results from one setup to another.

Because it is packaged as a datapack, the mod is applied through the world's data rather than through code. It is released for 1.19.2, 1.20, 1.21 and 1.21.1 and runs on the server side only, so players join without installing it. Installation works with Create, Farmer's Delight and Supplementaries among others. The license is custom and the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Revamped loot tables

  2. Rebuilt recipes

  3. Modded sand and gravel
