Recipe Maker lets you easily configure new custom recipes for any item via its configuration file (recipemaker.cfg).
It is a serversided mod and does not require clients to have it installed in order to join, but recipes will not appear in NEI/JEI if clients do not have the mod installed (recipes will still work). It also works in singleplayer.
It supports shaped and shapeless crafting recipes, as well as furnace recipes. It also supports sub-ids of items, OreDictionary entries and you can configure the output amount of crafting recipes.
Here are the formats:
- Shaped: output=pattern1,pattern2,pattern3;keyChar=itemString;keyChar=itemString...
- Shapeless: output=ingredient1,ingredient2,...
- Furnace: inputItemString=outputItemString=experience
For example, a shaped recipe for a diamond block would be
minecraft:diamond_block=AAA,AAA,AAA;A=minecraft:diamond
where A is a kind of shortcut for minecraft:diamond. You can use any letter you want.
More details and examples are in the configuration file!
