Salt's Inventory Compatibility

Salt's Inventory Compatibility brings supported modded inventories and recipe browsers into the movable window system provided by Salt's Inventory Update. Use storage terminals, backpacks and other supported interfaces alongside your player inventory and other open containers.

Requires Salt's Inventory Update Core. Compatibility 0.1.3 requires Core 0.1.6 for the same Minecraft version and loader. The optional Controlify companion 0.1.2 uses the same Core release.

Install third-party mods separately with their own dependencies. Only the integrations for installed supported mods activate; you do not need every listed mod.

Applied Energistics 2

Open supported AE2 terminals, pattern interfaces, crafting status screens and machine interfaces as desktop windows. Keep native settings and navigation, follow crafting CPU updates, and use separate toolbox companion windows where available.

AE2 interfaces retain the artwork and features of the installed AE2 release. Older releases keep their own design rather than being made to look like newer versions.

The reviewed AE2 adapters support:

• Minecraft 1.20.1, Fabric and Forge: AE2 15.4.11.
• Minecraft 1.21.1, NeoForge: AE2 19.2.18.
• Minecraft 26.1.2, NeoForge: AE2 26.1.13-beta.
• Minecraft 26.2, NeoForge: AE2 26.2.1-alpha.
• Minecraft 26.3, NeoForge: AE2 26.3.1-alpha.

AE2 integration is not currently provided for the other extension targets. Check the matching release notes before using a different upstream AE2 version.

Tom's Simple Storage

Adds desktop support for storage and crafting terminals, inventory configuration, filters, links, level emitters and filing cabinets. Supported terminals keep storage search, item access and crafting within the window system.

Sophisticated Backpacks and Storage

Use supported Sophisticated Backpacks and Sophisticated Storage interfaces as desktop windows, including their inventory controls, upgrade panels and settings navigation. This integration uses Sophisticated Core and supports the available Forge and NeoForge editions, plus the maintained Fabric ports on Minecraft 1.20.1 and 1.21.1.

On Fabric 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, install the matching unofficial Fabric ports of Sophisticated Core, Backpacks and Storage. Other Fabric targets follow upstream availability.

JEI, REI and EMI

Connect supported versions of Just Enough Items, Roughly Enough Items and EMI to Salt's recipe browser window. Search items, view recipes and uses, save bookmarks and request ingredient transfers into compatible open crafting windows.

Open the recipe browser with its configurable keybinding, H by default. Available categories, ingredients and transfer behavior depend on the installed provider and the destination inventory.

JEI and REI integrations are included across the supported build matrix where compatible provider releases are available. EMI integration is provided on Minecraft 1.20.1 Fabric/Forge and 1.21.1 Fabric/NeoForge.

Trinkets

On 1.20.1 Fabric (Trinkets 3.7.2) and 1.21.1 Fabric (Trinkets 3.10.0), native accessory groups attach to Character. Hover panels support multiple accessory slots with native icons, tooltips, item rules and synchronized transfers. Panels render above the player preview and other slots. Character always exposes the real offhand while Trinkets is active, even when the HUD also shows it; both views share the same stack.

Curios

Supported on 1.20.1 Forge and 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3 NeoForge. Character's Curios button or the configured Curios inventory shortcut opens an equal-width accessory panel above Character, separated by a small gap.

The accessory panel and Character move together and remain inside the screen. All slots are shown when space allows; larger collections scroll. Native equipment, cosmetic slots, the cosmetic tab, visibility buttons, icons, tooltips and item rules follow the installed Curios release. Live slot-capacity changes preserve held items.

Raised

With Raised 6.0.2 installed, detached hotbar and offhand rendering and interactions follow horizontal/vertical HUD offsets and live configuration changes. Available across the supported Minecraft/loader targets.

Installation

1. Install the Minecraft version and mod loader required by your chosen release.
2. Install the matching Salt's Inventory Update Core JAR and its required dependencies, including Fabric API on Fabric.
3. Install Salt's Inventory Compatibility for the same Minecraft version and loader, using the Core version required by the extension release.
4. Install the supported third-party mods you want to use, together with their own required dependencies.

For example, Minecraft 1.21.1 Fabric with Compatibility 0.1.3 needs Core 0.1.6: salts_inventory_update-1.21.1-Fabric-0.1.6.jar and salts_inventory_compat-1.21.1-Fabric-0.1.3.jar.

For supported container integrations in multiplayer, install matching Core and Compatibility versions on both the client and server. Recipe-browser mods belong on the client; follow each third-party mod's own installation requirements for its other dependencies.

Minecraft and Loader Availability

An extension build does not mean every integration is available on that target. Support also depends on the third-party mod's loader, version and interface compatibility. Unsupported screens retain their ordinary interface where no eligible desktop integration is available.

License

The packaged license declaration is MIT AND LGPL-3.0-or-later. Original Salt code is covered by the MIT license; adapted AE2 desktop material is covered by LGPL-3.0-or-later. The JARs include the corresponding license and attribution notices.

Support

If an integration behaves incorrectly, report the Minecraft version, loader, Core and Compatibility versions, affected third-party mod version, and steps to reproduce it. Include a screenshot for interface problems and a log for crashes or loading errors.
