About this project

What does Smeltwise add?

Faster furnaces for Fabric 26.3: copper, iron, gold, diamond and netherite, each one quicker than the last.

What it does

  • Five upgraded furnaces, each a step faster than the one before:
Furnace Speed One item takes
Copper Furnace 2x 5 seconds
Iron Furnace 3x 3.3 seconds
Gold Furnace 4x 2.5 seconds
Diamond Furnace 6x 1.7 seconds
Netherite Furnace 8x 1.25 seconds
  • Fuel lasts just as many items: one coal still smelts eight, only sooner.
  • Every furnace is a vanilla furnace inside: same menu, recipe book, experience, hopper input and output, comparators and smelting recipes, modded ones included. Nothing new to learn.
  • Upgrade step by step: surround a furnace with eight copper ingots, that with eight iron ingots, that with eight gold ingots, then four diamonds and four glass, and finally add a netherite ingot.
  • The Netherite Furnace survives lava and fire as an item, like other netherite gear.
  • A renamed furnace keeps its name when you pick it up.
  • Lit furnaces glow and throw flames and smoke like the vanilla one.

Needs

  • Minecraft 26.3, Fabric Loader, Fabric API
  • Installed on both the client and the server (it adds new blocks)
