Description
🔹 Vanilla-Friendly by Design
Marxx’s Recipes Plus is a survival-focused, vanilla-friendly mod that expands Minecraft without changing how the game feels.
The goal of this mod is simple:
Give Minecraft logical, immersive and balanced crafting recipes for items that normally have no real way to be crafted, while respecting vanilla progression.
No shortcuts.
No overpowered machines.
No modded-style complexity.
Everything fits naturally into survival gameplay.
🟠 Copper Tools & Armor (only versions 1.21.8 or earlier)
Minecraft has Copper… but no real use for it.
This mod adds:
Copper tools
Copper armor
Designed as an early-game tier:
Better than stone
Weaker than iron
Fully balanced for survival
Copper finally has a purpose without replacing iron.
🛠️ New Crafting Recipes (Vanilla Items)
This mod adds realistic and survival-friendly recipes for many vanilla items that normally:
Have no crafting recipe
Are locked behind RNG
Or are too tedious to obtain
All recipes are balanced and progression-aware.
Craftable Items Include:
Elytra (using a custom Elytra Wing items)



Trident

Sculk Sensor

Sculk Veins

Glow Lichen

Glow

Snow Bucket

Leather

Bell

Crying Obsidian

Enchanted Golden Apple

End Portal Frame

Horse Saddle

Name Tag

Spawner

Flint

Experience Bottle

Totem of Undying

Bundle

Sponge

Honeycomb

Cobweb

Grass Block

Horse Armor (Iron, Gold, Diamond)
The recipe for gold and diamond is the same, but substituting the iron ingot with gold/diamond.

Chainmail Armor (full set)
It's the same as any normal vanilla armor recipe but with iron chains
Trident Rework
The Trident is now craftable using custom components:
Trident Stick

Trident Heart

Trident Teeth

This keeps it rare, valuable, and lore-friendly.
🌌 Ender Pocket: A brand new utility item that allows you to access your Ender Chest inventory directly from anywhere in the world.

No exploration removal, just fair alternatives
🔥 Expanded Netherite Progression (4 New Tiers)
Marxx’s Recipes Plus introduces four new Netherite hybrid tiers, each with armor + tools + unique abilities.
These tiers do not replace vanilla Netherite — they expand progression after it.
🟣 Netherite + Iron
Armor with unique passive abilities
Sword and Pickaxe with special effects
Focused on durability and reliability
🟡 Netherite + Gold
Utility-focused abilities
Sword and Pickaxe with unique mechanics
Designed around drops, experience and versatility
🟢 Netherite + Emerald
Quantity-focused tier
Chance-based bonus drops
Never stronger than Diamond, even with Fortune
🔵 Netherite + Diamond
Advanced mechanics
Auto-smelt mining behavior
Smart Fortune simulation
Powerful but carefully balanced
End-game quality-of-life tier
Each tier:
Has full armor sets
Includes Sword, Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel and Hoe
Features custom abilities
Is balanced to never feel unfair or mandatory
🛠️ Quality of Life (QoL) Adjustments
🧱 AutoRefill System: When you place the last block or consume the last item in a stack, the mod automatically searches your inventory and replenishes your hand with an identical stack. (Works with building blocks, torches, food, and potions).
🌾 Right-Click Harvest: Right-clicking any fully grown crop (wheat, carrots, potatoes) will instantly harvest the items and replant a new seed automatically without breaking the farmland.
🚪 DoorSync: Double doors are now perfectly synchronized. Opening or closing one door will automatically trigger the adjacent door to do the same.
🔨 Anvil Fix/Repair: Overhauled the anvil mechanics to fix issues with repairing and combining items, removing unfair limitations.
🏆 Advancements
Custom advancements for progression
Rewards players for crafting and completing tiers
Fully integrated with survival gameplay

⚖️ Balance Philosophy

No progression skipping
Everything feels like it could have been vanilla
This mod is designed for players who love Minecraft as it is, but always wished it had more logical recipes and deeper progression.
