About this project

What does Nie's Improved Recipes add?

Note of warning; I 100% intended this as a datapack and just used Modrinths inner mod maker to convert the datapack into a mod so if a bug exists in the mod version but not in the datapack version, I cannot fix it and I apologise.

Datapacks however are cool. You just need to put them into .minecraft/saves//datapacks and then anyone who joins the world will have access to it instead of downloading 1 more mod!
