Overriding Recipes
All recipes can be overridden or removed via a datapack, without modifying the mod itself. This is useful for modpacks or custom servers.
Datapack structure:
my_datapack/
├── pack.mcmeta
└── data/
└── armoroftheages/
└── recipes/
└── <recipe_name>.json
pack.mcmeta (required at the root of the datapack):
{
"pack": {
"pack_format": 15,
"description": "My custom AotA recipes"
}
}
pack_format: 15 is the correct value for Minecraft 1.20.1.
Installation: place the datapack folder (or its .zip) in:
- Single-player:
.minecraft/saves/<world_name>/datapacks/ - Server:
<server_root>/world/datapacks/
Then run /reload in-game or restart the server.
Override a recipe by placing a custom .json file at the matching path. The full list of recipe files is available on GitHub:
Remove a recipe by overriding the file with an empty JSON object:
{}
Minecraft will fail to parse the file, log a warning, and silently skip the recipe. The game loads normally, this is not a crash.
