Ages Primitives is a Forge mod focused on primitive knapping.
What it does:
- Opens a knapping UI when you right-click with the correct material in hand, while looking at air.
- Lets you carve patterns on a grid to craft primitive tool heads and parts
- Uses data-driven JSON knapping recipes
- Consumes material only when you actually take the crafted result
- Includes JEI/EMI integration with recipe categories
- Includes KubeJS integration with a custom knapping recipe schema, so modpack creators can add or modify knapping recipes via scripts
