Do you want more diverse molds while staying true to the spirit and mechanics of the game? This mod is for you!

---

 

Indeed, the Vanilla More Molds project aims to add new varieties of molds to expand the arsenal of your forge, all while staying true to the base game (mechanics, smelting logic, crafting).

The mod also seeks to give Fire Clay additional value by allowing the creation of advanced ingot molds for mass production

FAQ :

Will you add new tool molds?

- In theory, I could, but adding extra tool molds would break the use of the forge, so it's not planned. However, adding more utilitarian molds, like large ingot molds for example, is planned!

Can I translate the mod into another language?

- The mod is currently available in English and French, but if you have any other suggestions, I’d be happy to hear them. You can submit your translations via GitHub ( link in the 'Source' tab ).

Is there a config file?

- No, not yet. And if there ever is one, it would be for features that wouldn’t break the vanilla aspect of the game.

...

Future plan :

• Reinforced mold (protect from bad weather)
• Special storage rack for ingot molds
• More uses of fireclay
• Compatibility with others mods
• Keep the mod up to date :3

I’m open to suggestions, as long as they stay within the theme of the mod.

Incompatibility :

No news, good news

The next update should be fun

I gave up on the idea of colored molds because it feels strange to have only the molds in color but not the rest of the pottery. Maybe an idea for a future mod, haha! In the meantime, I’ve focused on the balancing issue of the special molds. I’m working on a major update that will change a lot of things!

We’re even talking about a complete rework, which I will of course try to make compatible for people who already have a world with the current version of the mod!

@Noa3
I just released version 1.1.1 which fixed the problem of the mods not wanting to work, thank you again for warning me without you it could have stayed like that for a long time

@Noa3

Version 1.1.1 should normally fix the problem of the mod not loading anymore. By the way, excuse me, it's really my fault—it was because there was a compilation issue. So I recompiled the code correctly, normally, and the blocks you had in your single-player game, or even multiplayer, should be linked again, and you shouldn't have the issue you encountered anymore.

Have a great day :3
