Description

Craftable Gunpowder

Tired of farming creepers for every batch of TNT or fireworks? Craftable Gunpowder adds a survival-friendly way to make vanilla gunpowder from sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal.

Mine sulfur ore underground. Craft humus from leaves, wheat, dirt, and seeds, then use it on a composter for a chance to obtain saltpeter. Put sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal in one row on a crafting table to get 8 gunpowder. Regular coal won't work.

 

Features

  • Sulfur ore and deepslate sulfur ore, with Fortune and Silk Touch support.
  • Saltpeter obtained by using humus on a composter (25% chance by default).
  • Configurable recipes, drops, ore generation, and composting.
  • Five advancements and English and Russian translations.
  • Separate files for supported Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge versions.

On Minecraft 26.2, one vanilla sulfur block can be crafted into 4 units of this mod's sulfur. On 26.1 and 26.2, shared material tags help compatible mods use the sulfur and saltpeter. Optional JEI integration explains the composter step.

Installation

Download one file matching your exact Minecraft version and mod loader from the Files tab and place it in mods. Fabric also requires Fabric API. For multiplayer, install Craftable Gunpowder on both the server and every client.

Русский

Добывай серную руду, получай селитру из перегноя с помощью компостницы и создавай обычный порох без охоты на криперов. Сера + селитра + древесный уголь дают 8 пороха. Все основные параметры можно изменить в конфиге.
