Do you want more diverse molds while staying true to the spirit and mechanics of the game? This mod is for you!


 

Indeed, the Vanilla More Molds project aims to add new varieties of molds to expand the arsenal of your forge, all while staying true to the base game (mechanics, smelting logic, crafting).

The mod also seeks to give Fire Clay additional value by allowing the creation of advanced ingot molds for mass production

FAQ :

Will you add new tool molds?

- In theory, I could, but adding extra tool molds would break the use of the forge, so it's not planned. However, adding more utilitarian molds, like large ingot molds for example, is planned!

Can I translate the mod into another language?

- The mod is currently available in English and French, but if you have any other suggestions, I’d be happy to hear them. You can submit your translations via GitHub ( link in the 'Source' tab ).

Is there a config file?

- No, not yet. And if there ever is one, it would be for features that wouldn’t break the vanilla aspect of the game.

...

Future plan :

  • Reinforced mold (protect from bad weather)
  • Color mold compared to the clay used
  • Special storage rack for ingot molds
  • More uses of fireclay
  • Compatibility with others mods
  • Keep the mod up to date :3

I’m open to suggestions, as long as they stay within the theme of the mod.

Incompatibility :

No news, good news 🤣

Yes, I had the idea too, it should be in the next update. As for the reinforced molds, it won't break the vanilla mechanics because it will be a new item for the 'late game.' These will be specific molds with a crafting recipe, so they won't replace the basic molds. :)

But yes, I also think the config file will be important!

I do plan to update this, including the model of the mold in question. However, my goal is for this mold to be used multiple times for mass production. My intention is not to replace the forging mechanics, but rather to help with mass production when there are many items to craft. For example, I’m thinking about windmill parts, which require nails and bands!

Salut,

Do you plan to make large mold for plates, like the large ingot mold? (I like the choice for x6, x8 or x10 ingots)

I’m curious and testing the mod, but I already had the MoreMold mod, which adds all these molds (except the saw and the scythe) and works very well (as long as you manually add red clay to the recipe for version 1.20).

However, a config file would be a very big "plus"! There are molds or features we might not want, like the "Reinforced mold (protects from bad weather" (which, in my opinion, goes against the vanilla game). Being able to enable/disable specific molds would be perfect!

With the nails and strips why not just put it at 100 units and make the 4 like when you beat it out on the anvil?
