1.5.1-1.21.11-(Fabric)

Custom Recipe — Minecraft 1.21.11 (Fabric)

This update makes configurations easier to share, improves the recipe editor, and lets servers keep custom recipes active for players who do not install the mod.

Added

• Two export formats — export a complete Custom Recipe share file for lossless backup and transfer, or create a standard Minecraft datapack for supported recipes.
• Customizable datapack export — choose the datapack name, description, and target Minecraft version before saving. The export includes its credit and licence information.
• The datapack preview reports how many recipes can be exported and clearly identifies recipes that must be skipped because vanilla datapacks cannot represent them.

Improved

• Shaped and shapeless recipe quantity controls use the free space beside the crafting preview, leaving more room for the item list.
• Shapeless recipes show up to four ingredient rows at once and keep the remaining entries accessible by scrolling.
• Alternative groups display their number of choices in recipe slots, saved groups, and while the complete group is carried by the cursor.
• Exported share files use clearer default filenames based on the selected world or library.

Fixed

• Confirmation and import/export windows fully block hover effects and visual elements from the menu behind them.
• Shaped/Shapeless and Known by default controls now show their highlighted and selected states consistently.
• Carried items, carried alternative counts, delete markers, and quantity labels keep the correct drawing order above placed recipe items.
• Opening editor and configuration screens no longer triggers duplicate background blur on affected Minecraft versions.

Compatibility / servers

• Supports Minecraft 1.21.11 with Fabric.
• Fabric API and Mod Menu are required. Roughly Enough Items (REI) remains optional.
• A dedicated server can keep previously configured custom recipes active for vanilla clients that do not install Custom Recipe. Install the mod on a client only when that player needs the graphical editor.
• Recipes using features that vanilla datapacks cannot represent remain available through the Custom Recipe share format and are skipped with an explanation during datapack export.

Before updating

• Existing recipes and configurations remain compatible.
• No migration or additional setup is required after updating.
