A mod that allows you to create and add new items using pure text files.
No dependencies, doesn't need Fabric API.
Creating Items
- Create a new folder called "itemsfromtext" in your .minecraft folder and navigate inside
- For each item make a txt file and a png image. Both files should be named your item's registry name (e.g. ender_pearl)
- Inside the txt file complete one of the example templates below with your own item's data
- For custom namespaces, make a new folder within the main folder and put items in that folder
Crafting Recipes
Crafting recipes can either be shaped or shapeless.
To give your item a custom crafting recipe, add a recipe property.
Recipes must be defined like this:
recipe=shaped,TOP ROW,MIDDLE ROW,BOTTOM ROW,QUANTITY,KEYS or recipe=shapeless,QUANTITY,ITEMS
Examples:
Recipe for a Furnace:
recipe=shaped,XXX,X X,XXX,1,X-minecraft:cobblestone
Recipe for Flint and Steel:
recipe=shapeless,1,minecraft:flint,minecraft:iron_ingot
