About this project

What does Cereal Anvil Library add?

Cereal Anvil Library

What is this?

Cereal Anvil Library is a library mod that provides the shared anvil system behind the "Cereal Anvil" series of mods. It adds no content of its own — it is the foundation that other anvil mods are built on.

Why do players need it?

The library gives every "Cereal Anvil" block a unified, vanilla-consistent experience:

  • Full anvil functionality — repair tools, equipment and enchanted books exactly like a vanilla anvil
  • Natural degradation — anvils crack and break with use, just as you would expect
  • Consistent behavior — every anvil in the series follows the same rules, so nothing feels out of place

Features

  • Generic anvil blocks with three states (intact / chipped / damaged), each anvil family generating all three variants automatically
  • Full vanilla anvil repair and enchanting GUI
  • Configurable damage chance and fuel behavior (defaults to identical behavior to a normal anvil)
  • A "Anvil Collection" creative tab that gathers all anvil blocks for easy browsing
  • Built-in gradient crack textures for chipped and damaged states

FAQ

Q: What happens if I install this mod alone? A: Nothing visible on its own — install it when another mod lists it as a required dependency.
