Tinkers' Advanced-Core
by EtSH-C2H6S
Tinkers' Advanced-Core is a Forge library that provides the shared API for the Tinkers Advanced series, which Tinkers' Advanced-Materials depends on.
What it does
Tinkers' Advanced-Core supplies the common code that other Tinkers Advanced mods build on, so it has no gameplay of its own beyond a single guide book item. Tinkers' Advanced-Materials requires it to run. Because the core only adds that guide book, installing it does not change how the game plays.
The mod is built for Forge and covers Minecraft 1.20.1 only, with the latest file 3.0.0-beta.5 published on 2026-01-12 in the beta channel. The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only.

What the author says
Tinkers' Advanced-Core is the api lib for Tinkers' Advanced Series. Adding this mod won't affect your gameplay since it only adds 1 Item which is the guide book of Tinkers' Advanced. But it is required by other Tinkers' Advanced mods.
