🔮 Arcane Nexus

Take full control of enchanting.

Arcane Nexus adds a powerful endgame enchanting station that lets you search for enchantments, select exact levels, combine multiple enchantments and repair equipment using experience.

Build the complete Nexus setup with bookshelves and Arcane Pylons to unlock the true maximum levels of both Vanilla and modded enchantments.

✨ Features

• Direct enchantment selection — choose exactly which enchantments you want.
• Level controls — increase or decrease every selected enchantment using dedicated buttons.
• Search function — find enchantments by translated name, registry ID or mod namespace.
• Modded enchantment support — automatically detects enchantments added by other mods.
• High-level enchantments — enchantment levels above Vanilla limits become available with a complete setup.
• Multiple enchantments — apply several compatible enchantments in one operation.
• XP-based enchanting — stronger enchantments require more experience.
• XP equipment repair — repair damaged tools, weapons and armor directly inside the Nexus.
• Compatibility validation — incompatible enchantments and invalid item combinations are rejected.
• Dedicated server support — all important gameplay rules are validated by the server.
• Custom blocks and recipes — includes the Arcane Nexus, Arcane Core and Arcane Pylons.
• Creative Mode tab — all mod items are grouped inside their own category.

⭐ Enchantment Progression

The Arcane Nexus uses nearby bookshelf power and Arcane Pylons to determine which enchantment levels are available.

With the default configuration:

The final stage does not stop at Level V.

When the complete setup is active, the Nexus unlocks the actual maximum level provided by the enchantment or another installed mod. An enchantment with a maximum level of XII can therefore reach Level XII, but only with the fully powered Nexus.

Removing a required bookshelf or pylon immediately lowers the available limit again.

🔷 Arcane Pylons

Arcane Pylons provide the additional power required for stronger enchantment levels.

• Up to four pylons are required by default.
• The default detection range is 5 blocks.
• Only pylons detected by the Nexus count toward progression.
• Pylon requirements and range can be changed by the server owner.
• Increasing the configured number of required pylons automatically spreads the intermediate level progression across the new requirement.

The true modded maximum is unlocked only after every configured pylon and bookshelf requirement has been fulfilled.

📚 Bookshelf Power

Bookshelves provide the base enchanting power of the Nexus.

• The default requirement is 15 bookshelf power.
• The default range follows a Vanilla-style enchanting setup.
• Modded bookshelves can contribute through NeoForge enchantment power.
• The required power and detection range are configurable.
• Extended bookshelf ranges require a valid connection to the Nexus.

⚙️ Server Configuration

Arcane Nexus must be installed on both the dedicated server and every connecting client.

All progression rules are controlled by the server. Local client settings cannot override the active server configuration.

The configuration file is generated per world:

world/serverconfig/arcane_nexus-server.toml

Server owners can configure:

• required_bookshelf_power — required total bookshelf power.
• bookshelf_radius — bookshelf detection range.
• required_pylons — number of pylons needed for the complete setup.
• pylon_radius — pylon detection range.
• base_level_without_pylons — available level without pylons.
• staged_maximum_level — maximum intermediate progression level.
• scale_levels_with_bookshelves — whether bookshelf power affects intermediate levels.

Setting a bookshelf or pylon requirement to 0 disables that requirement.

🧩 Mod Compatibility

Arcane Nexus reads enchantments from the active game registry.

This allows it to support:

• Vanilla enchantments
• Data-driven enchantments
• Enchantments added by NeoForge mods
• Enchantments with levels above normal Vanilla limits
• Compatible modded bookshelf power values

Some mods use completely separate enchanting systems. Those systems may require an additional compatibility integration.
