Tinkers' Schema - Example Tools

Companion content for Tinkers' Schema, providing ready-to-use tool definitions, models, textures, and guidebook entries for the War Club and Pickaxe-Axe.

This is not a standalone resource pack. It contains both config files and resource files, which must be placed in separate game directories as described below.

What's Inside

• War Club — A melee weapon with the Splintering trait.
• Pickaxe-Axe — A combined mining tool with the Sharp trait.

Each tool includes:

• A JSON tool definition for config/tinkersschema/tools/
• A layered .tcon.json model file
• 16×16 grayscale layer textures (tinted by material color at runtime)
• Broken-state textures
• English and Chinese language entries
• A guidebook entry for the Tinkers' Construct book ("Materials and You")

Installation

1. Install Tinkers' Schema v0.2.1 or later and its dependencies.

2. Locate your game directory:

   • Standard setup: .minecraft/
   • Version isolation: .minecraft/versions/<version_name>/

3. Extract the archive into your game directory, merging with the existing config/ and resources/ folders. The archive is already structured for direct extraction — no manual file-by-file copying required.

4. Launch the game. The tools will appear in the Tinkers' Tool Station, and their entries will be added to the Tinkers' Construct guidebook.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.12.2
• Forge
• Tinkers' Schema v0.2.1 or later
• Tinkers' Construct 2
• Mantle
• Resource Loader (recommended)

Notes

• Textures are grayscale. Tinkers' Construct applies material colors automatically at render time.
• The Pickaxe-Axe reuses Tinkers' Construct's own handle texture; only the axe head and pick head textures are bundled here.
• This pack is designed as a learning reference for creating your own tools with Tinkers' Schema.
