Reliable Remover

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

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.

Reliable Remover

A lightweight utility designed for completely removing items or blocking interactions through simple JSON configuration. This mod allows modpack creators to effortlessly ban items or restrict their usage using standard JSON files, without the need for complex scripts.

What About Item Obliterator?

I'm glad you asked! I made Reliable Remover because of some of my personal frustrations with Item Obliterator. Here are some reasons to consider switching!

Reliable Remover is frequently updated and supports the latest versions (including 26.1 snapshots!), while Item Obliterator is largely abandoned.
Live config reloading! Run /reload and see your changes instantly take place.
Proper EMI integration on all loaders/versions.
Automatic item/block tag and recipe removal.
Far better handling for Villager trade removal and loot table removal.
Better + more performant regex support, using precompiled blacklist rules.
More flexible support for configurations within subfolders and user-definable file structures.
Ability to define more complicated rules for specific matching.
Ability to filter by dimensions.
Additional support for TooManyRecipeViewers, Reliable Recipes, and EMI Loot.
Doesn't require any external libraries for core functionality.
