Name: Forgery
Author: exaptations

Forgery is a large collection of vanilla tweaks and small features I wanted or thought would be neat. Everything is configurable.

It is the Forge counterpart to Fabrication. (Forgery is really a disguised version of Fabrication; it's just that mod but transformed to work under Forge.)
