Thaumic Dabblery
by Muttdud
Thaumic Dabblery is a Forge addon for Thaumcraft 4 that extends ModTweaker's Thaumcraft compatibility on the 1.7.10 version of the game.
What it does
The mod extends ModTweaker's Thaumcraft 4 compatibility, adding recipe and research options that ModTweaker alone does not cover. Its changes touch runic shielding on equipped items, research prerequisites that depend on items scanned in the world, and the removal of research movement. Forge is the only loader, and UniMixins must be present for the mod to start.
Thaumic Dabblery also changes the Thaumonomicon: tab names, icons and background overrides are applied in a way that survives a reload, and tab ordering is handled with compatibility for TC4Tweaks. One of its modifications alters a player vat infusion recipe from Thaumic Horizons. ContentTweaker and ModTweaker are optional; ModTweaker supplies the scripting hooks the mod builds on.
The mod is client and server, so every player on a server running it needs it too. It is published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public. Files target 1.7.10 only, with the latest Forge build dated 2026-10-01.
Key features
Runic shielding on equipped items
Equipped items can carry a modified runic shielding effect, changing how armor and tools protect against aspect-based damage.
Scan-based research prerequisites
Research can require that the player has scanned specific items or entities in the world before the entry becomes available.
Safe research movement removal
Research entries can be taken out of the movement system without breaking the Thaumonomicon's layout.
Reload-safe Thaumonomicon tabs
Tab names, icons and backgrounds stay in place after a reload, and tab ordering is kept compatible with TC4Tweaks.
