Better Steel Mod (1.20.2, 1.19.4) – Adds Steel Processing Steps
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.19–1.20. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ DownloadMany tech or mechanical mods use steel as a very important resource for various purposes. Better Steel Mod introduces a better, perhaps even easier, steel processing method into the game. From mining iron and manganese to smelting them into ingots. Then crushing them into powder and combining the powder into steel powder. Then once again smelting this powder to obtain steel ingots as the final products. The steps are meant to make the processing a lot more realistic. Detailed step-by-step processing and images are given below.
