Runic Forge

Runic Forge 0.1.1 — First public release

• Mana-powered Sunfire Sword, Venom Dagger, Echo Hammer, Inferno Axe, and Void Spear.
• Four runic tools with toggleable area mining, tree felling, digging, and tilling.
• Craftable Rune Forge for equipment crafting, armor engraving, and Mana Core upgrades.
• Ancient weapon runes in structure loot and tool runes in village loot.
• Shared player mana, persistent player mastery, and four Mana Core tiers.
• Mana Pool I–IV and built-in diamond/netherite armor mana bonuses.
• Helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots rune effects, including later flight unlocks.
• Compact bottom-left mana HUD with draggable position, scaling, width, presets, and saved client settings; open with O or Mods → Config.
• Detailed replacement textures for equipment, runes, cores, and the forge.

Built and tested on Minecraft 1.21.1 / NeoForge 21.1.242 / Java 21. Five integration checks passed; the HUD editor and textures were also checked in the graphical client.

Early-development release: balance may change, engraved armor retains vanilla appearance, and modpack compatibility needs playtesting. Install on both client and server for multiplayer. Remove the previous Runic Forge jar when updating.
