DatapacksJava
recycled gear
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
This simple datapack/mod adds stonecutter recipes for gaining back materials used for tools.
Compatability:
Even though the datapack is marked as incompatible for most versions other than 1.20.1, it should still work for all versions from 1.14 - 1.20.4
Recycleable Gear:
- All Tools and Armor
- Bows, Crossbows
- Rods (Carrot/Fungus on a stick too)
- Shield
- Flint and Steel, shears
- Clock, Compass
- Spyglass, Brush
Planned:
- Option to get sticks or material -done
- Add recipes for other gear (Rod, Bow etc) -done
- Maybe mod support
