Tinkered Hegemony
by asie
Tinkered Hegemony swaps vanilla tools for tools from the Forge mod set in a 1.12.2 world, one tool type at a time.
What it does
Players who run a modpack built on tool replacement can have it swap vanilla pickaxes, shovels, axes and other tools for their equivalents from the Tinkers toolset. The replacement is configurable per tool type, so a pack can change pickaxes while leaving swords and bows as they are. Vanilla-style tools are detected and mapped to their counterparts, and recipes for the vanilla tools are disabled, which leaves them effectively unusable in survival.
Recipes of other mods that yield vanilla-style tools are also changed, so a modpack can use comparable replacement tools in their place without keeping the vanilla items as decoys. Disabled items are hidden from the JEI ingredient list. The mod also supports some addons for the toolset, such as Construct's Armory. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.12.2, with 0.2.1 as the latest file, released 2021-11-12, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, which makes it open source.
Key features
Tool replacement
Vanilla tools are swapped for replacement tools, with the choice made separately for each tool type.
Recipe disabling
Recipes for the replaced vanilla tools are removed, so players cannot craft them in survival.
Recipe rewriting
Recipes from other mods that produce vanilla-style tools are rewritten to produce the replacement equivalents.
JEI filtering
Disabled vanilla items are hidden from the JEI ingredient list so they do not appear as options.
