Pigsteel is a nether variant to iron, it can be used alongside iron to craft all things in the game that require iron.
This is the official forge port!
You can find the original mod here: Pigsteel [Fabric]
Mod features:
-Pigsteel ore that generates in the nether
-Stone pigsteel ore that will not generate naturally
-Block of pigsteel (turns into a block of iron when placed in the overworld) [Can be prevented through waxing]
-Cut pigsteel
-All iron in nether loot tables is replaced with its pigsteel variant
-Pigsteel can work alongside iron in vanilla recipes
-Cut pigsteel blocks transform(zombify) in the overworld [Can be prevented through waxing]
-Slab and stair variants of all cut pigsteel blocks
Mod compatibility:
Pigsteel is under the forge tags. All recipes of mods that uses these tags will also work with pigsteel.
Planned features:
Real missed opportunity to call it pig iron, considering pig iron is a real thing.
In reply to slavvv_:
I would have, but I've personally seen at least two instances of pig iron in other mods so it wouldn't be very distinctive, besides pigsteel rolls off the tongue better
Thanks for the update!
I'm on 1.18.1 and pigsteel ore doesn't seem to be dropping anything.
In reply to theturbosoggy:
That's weird for me it does.
What Pickaxe did you use and was it enchanted?
In reply to uraneptus:
I tried it with all pickaxes from stone up to netherite (unenchanted). Maybe I have another mod that's causing some sort of conflict.
In reply to theturbosoggy:
Yeah that's most likely caused by another mod, could you send me the modlist and the latest.log file ?
Awesome mod, one of my favorite nether ores. Any plans for a 1.18 Update?
In reply to tomrubicon1998:
Yes it's planned!
In reply to uraneptus:
Awesome i cant wait!
Hey there, since you don't have an issues tab i have to report a bug here:
All Pigsteel Stair variants can't be crafted in the crafting table due to them being mislabeled. Check the spoiler to see the error messages that i got once i loaded up a world:
Parsing error loading recipe pigsteel:corrupted_cut_pigsteel_stairs
com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: Unknown item 'minecraft:corrupted_cut_pigsteel'
.
Parsing error loading recipe pigsteel:cut_pigsteel_stairs
com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: Unknown item 'minecraft:cut_pigsteel'

Parsing error loading recipe pigsteel:infected_cut_pigsteel_stairs

.
Parsing error loading recipe pigsteel:zombified_cut_pigsteel_stairs
com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: Unknown item 'minecraft:zombified_cut_pigsteel'
As you can see, the input item IDs don't use the proper modid and instead use 'minecraft' therefore the crafting recipes doesn't work. You can still craft them perfectly fine via the stonecutter, but the crafting table recipes are not available due to the wrong modid used in the input itemid.
I double-checked with JEI to see if the recipes really weren't working and yeah, they didn't show up, only the stonecutter recipe did.
It's not a critical bug as it's still possible to get them with the stonecutter, but still i hope you'll find the time to fix this rather minor issue! :D
In reply to Thombias:
thank you, I'll look into this.
can you tell me which version of the mod you are playing?
In reply to DigitalPear_11:
Ah sorry should've mentioned this. I was playing with mod version Pigsteel-forge-1.16.5-1.3.2
In reply to Thombias:
Should be fixed now! Thanks for reporting that ^^
In reply to uraneptus:
Awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to fix it even though this issue really didn't matter too much overall. xD
the zombification is way too fast
In reply to secretwashingmachine:
Forgot to answer oops, sorry.
Currently the zombification speed is controlled by the world's random tick speed. So how fast it transforms is random
Can this be used to craft iron or pigsteel armor?
In reply to medic_olkie:
Iron. There is no pigsteel armor
Pigsteel seems to be replacing blocks with the base_stone_nether tag, which cause this
