Anvil Configurator

Anvil Configurator removes Minecraft's vanilla "Too Expensive!" restriction and allows players to configure the maximum XP cost for anvil operations.

Designed to be lightweight, simple, and modpack-friendly.

Features

• Removes the vanilla "Too Expensive!" restriction
• Configurable maximum anvil XP cost
• Forge 1.20.1 support
• Lightweight implementation
• Modpack-friendly
• No custom items, blocks, entities, dimensions, or world generation

Configuration

After launching the game for the first time, a configuration file will be generated:

You can change it to any positive value:

or any other number that fits your playstyle.

Optional In-Game Configuration

If you prefer changing settings through a graphical menu instead of editing configuration files manually, you can install Configured.

Configured allows you to edit:

directly from Minecraft's Mods menu.

Configured is optional and not required for Anvil Configurator to function.

Compatibility

Anvil Configurator applies a configurable cap to the final anvil cost and is designed to work well in large modpacks.

Using multiple mods that modify vanilla anvil cost calculations or remove anvil restrictions at the same time may result in unexpected behavior.

Why?

Many modpacks add powerful enchantments that quickly push anvil costs far beyond vanilla limits.

Anvil Configurator allows players and server owners to choose their own maximum anvil XP cap while preserving progression and balance.
