Yet Another Recipe Conflict Fixer (YARCF)
Yet Another Recipe Conflict Fixer lets a player cycle through several recipes that share one crafting layout, so every conflicting item stays reachable on 1.12.2.
What it does
When two installed mods register recipes that use the same materials in the same layout, only one of them can be crafted by default. This mod makes all of the matching recipes available. The player picks which one to craft by pressing a cycle button next to the crafting grid or by using a dedicated key binding. The number of conflicting recipes is shown on screen so the player knows how many alternatives exist.
The mod is built for Forge and covers 1.12.2 only, with its latest file 1.12.2-0.15 dated 2026-09-13. It is a client-side mod, so servers run without it and only the player who wants the cycle button installs it. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code is public. Behaviour for other crafting tables depends on an automated detection system, and the result may differ from what a player expects. Options are set in the recipehandler.cfg configuration file.

Recipe cycle button
A button beside the crafting grid steps through every recipe that shares the current layout.

A configurable key binding cycles conflicting recipes without clicking the on-screen button.
Conflict count display
The number of conflicting recipes for the current layout appears on screen.

Use cases
Reaching blocked items
A player who installed two mods with identical crafting patterns can still craft the item from the mod whose recipe was not chosen by default.
Who it’s for: Players who run modpacks with overlapping crafting recipes on Forge 1.12.2, and modpack authors who want every conflicting recipe to stay reachable without removing a mod.
How it compares
Potion ID Packet Fixer is a Forge mod for 1.16.5 – 1.18.2, run on client and server, under All rights reserved, so it does not cover 1.12.2 at all. Packet Fixer is open source under the MIT License and works with Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 1.12.2 – 26.3, with the client or server running it optionally. This mod differs by targeting only Forge 1.12.2 and by being a client-side recipe tool rather than a network fix.

If you have two different mods that have the same recipe using the same materials, then you got a conflict, and you would have no way to get access to all the items by the intended means.
