Spell Codex: Iron's Spellbooks & Ars Nouveau Compat

[0.9.0] — 2026-08-29

Summary

Convert Ars Nouveau caster tomes into unique Spell Codex cards and cast them from the Actionbar with Iron's mana.

Requires

• Minecraft 1.21.1 / NeoForge
• Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks
• Ars Nouveau
• Spell Codex (Specs: Iron's Spells Addon)
• Spell Actionbar

Added

• Spell Conversion Station — enchanting-table silhouette, source-purple stone, complementary gold, floating book
• Crafted with a book, 2 source gems, and 4 obsidian
• Place a caster tome and click Add to Codex (the tome is consumed; parchment and spell books are not accepted)
• Each distinct glyph recipe becomes one Codex spell under the Ars Nouveau tab
• Addon tomes that use ars_nouveau:caster_tome are included automatically
• Icons overlay the form glyph with the first effect
• Spell name and blue text match the tome; Codex inspector and scroll tooltips list every glyph
• Casting spends Iron's mana at the Ars recipe cost and runs the original glyph sequence
• Ars spells can be removed from the Codex with the inspector Remove button
• Ars Nouveau school progress (and the overall Codex bar) counts unique published caster tomes, including addons; the grid still only shows recipes you have converted

Notes

• Two tomes with the same glyphs share a card; adding Amplify (or any extra glyph) makes a new one
• Ars Codex spells are picked from the Codex like other discovered spells — they are not crafted at Iron's Scroll Forge
• A custom tome that is not in those datapacks is added to the progress total after you convert it, so the bar cannot exceed 100%
