Recipes - Must Be In The Game
by ZeioDust
Recipes - Must Be In The Game adds 199 new crafting, smelting and stonecutting recipes that use only vanilla items, so players get more options without new blocks or items.
What it does
Recipes - Must Be In The Game follows one simple rule: a recipe appears only when it makes sense to craft the item. The additions are data-driven and cover blocks, doors, grates, trapdoors, bulbs and cut or chiseled variants, plus stonecutter conversions between stone types. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 17 release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, and is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
