Description
This is just a library mod and won't add anything on its own. It is used in TheElementGuy's More Metals and Ores, my other mod.
Each version starts with the minor and then the patch version of its corresponding Minecraft version. The parent mod should inform you of which version to use.
What features does it add? This mod will not add anything on its own. However, for mod development, it adds a unified material system, allowing for less repetitive code. Additionally, it automates datagen, item registration, and block registration. Finally, it has a variety of utility methods such as loot modifiers and creative inventory filling.
What is its purpose? I got bored of writing the same code over and over again in the making of my other mod. This library allows developers to utilize methods to do less repetition. It also allows for quicker updating.
Why download it? This is a library mod required by other mods. Without it, they will not function.
For developers:
If you want to use this to make a mod, you're in luck! It should be easy to use. There are Javadoc comments throughout the code. See the GitHub repository for more.
Supported versions:
1.21.10- 1.21.11
- 1.21.4
strikethrough - no longer updated/supported
italics - in development
