FAQ
Can I use this mod in my mod pack?
Yes, you are allowed to use this mod in your mod packs.
Port to another Minecraft version? Which versions are supported?
Sorry, but I do not backport any mod to an older version. Here is a list of all supported and planned versions: Minecraft mod versions of cech12
Is there a Fabric version?
Yes, since 1.20.4 Fabric and Quilt are officially supported. There is no plan to backport Fabric support to earlier Minecraft versions.
Where is the config file?
Since mod version 2.0.0.0 you can find it in the defaultconfig directory. If you change something there it has only an effect on new savegames. For existing savegames you need to go to the serverconfig directory of the savegame.
How can I disable single hats?
Since mod version 2.0.0.0 you need to add a custom datapack or use CraftTweaker to disable single crafting recipes.
I found a bug or I have a good idea to enhance this mod!
