Tired of your boring old vanilla furnace? So was I. This mod aims to add a sense of realism to the Minecraft world. How can a little oven melt iron? Make your furnace perform as you see fit. Want some more efficiency? Want some speed? It is up to you. Put simply, there are 1.55x10^25 combinations! (roughly)
Getting Started
This mod is designed to be an early through mid game mod. So simply craft a vanilla furnace, smelt 8 cobblestone with one coal, craft stone bricks, and surround the vanilla furnace with the stone bricks in a craft grid. Now build your furnace. Early on, I recommend using all cobble and slowly upgrading it as you go. Build a 3x3x3 structure with a hollow center and leave the center of one side empty. Insert the Modular Furnace Core into this side and right click. Presto you have your new furnace.
Modular Furnace Core Crafting Recipe
Building Blocks
- Cobblestone: Slightly better than a vanilla furnace. A good starting point
- Redstone Block: Increase speed, but lose efficiency
- Iron Block: Increase efficiency
- Diamond Block: Add just one to have a chance of double outputs
- Emerald Block: Add just one to triple your experience from smelting
- Crafting Core: Add just one to add the crafting grid into your furnace GUI. Not required
