Warium Ponder & JEI

by CrazyWoddMan

Warium Ponder & JEI brings Warium's proprietary recipes into Ponder scenes and Just Enough Items, so they can be viewed as interactive guides.

ForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1

What it does

Warium keeps its recipes hard-coded and no longer designates JEI categories for them. This mod fills that gap by reading the recipe data from a reference folder inside its own jar, so the Warium recipes can be shown in JEI. Recipes can also be added or replaced through a datapack that overrides vanilla recipes.

Animated Ponder walkthroughs now cover a large set of Warium machines and the multi-block builds they form. Each scene is an interactive guide that a player opens from the recipe view, which turns the static recipe listing into a walkthrough. The mod is needed alongside Warium, which it depends on, and it can use Supplementaries for its optional content.

The mod is Forge only, built for 1.20.1, and runs on the client alone, so a server does not need it. Warium Ponder & JEI is open source under the MIT License and was first published on 2025-06-14. Its latest Forge file is 2.0.7 for 1.20.1, dated 2026-10-14.

Key features

  1. Interactive Ponder guides

    Ponder scenes step through Warium mechanisms and multi-block structures, showing how each part works.

  2. Warium recipes in JEI

    Warium's proprietary recipes are unhardcoded and listed in Just Enough Items under categories of their own.

  3. Datapack recipe overrides

    New recipes can be added, or existing vanilla recipes replaced, through a datapack without editing the mod.

  4. Bundled recipe data

    The recipe data ships inside the mod's jar under a reference folder for Warium Ponder JEI recipes.

Questions

Does Warium Ponder & JEI need Warium installed?

Yes. Warium is a required dependency, and the mod cannot read its recipes without it.

Does a server need Warium Ponder & JEI installed?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Is JEI required for Warium Ponder & JEI?

Just Enough Items is an optional dependency. The Warium recipe views appear in JEI, so it is needed to see them there.
