Upgraded Core

by Rolfmao

Upgraded Core is a Forge library that other mods use for shared code, and it adds no content of its own.

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.16.5 – 1.19.4

What it does

Upgraded Core holds code that the Upgraded Netherite family of mods depends on, including Upgraded Netherite, its Items and Ultimerite add-ons, and Upgraded Tools. Installing it alone changes nothing in play, because the mod does not add blocks, items or mechanics by itself. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge only, for four game versions: 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.19.4, with 1.19.4-4.3.0.3-release as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Shared library code

    The mod carries code that other mods call, so each dependent mod does not need to bundle its own copy.

  2. No standalone content

    Upgraded Core adds no items, blocks or recipes on its own; its value lies in the mods that require it.

  3. Forge builds

    Release builds cover 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.19.4 on the Forge loader.
