MAJOR UPDATE! Crafting Guide—Ultimate step-by-step guide to make anything
|
|
|
|
Body:
|
|
|
|
Have you ever wanted to figure out how much of what materials you need to craft something? Ever notice that certain
|
|
recipes are pretty easy... until you account for all the machines you need? Ever wonder how much stuff you'll need to
|
|
make a [Quarry](http://crafting-guide.com/item/quarry) or an entire
|
|
[QuantumSuit](http://crafting-guide.com/quantumsuit_bodyarmor)?
|
|
|
|
Crafting Guide will help. Choose what you want to make and how many of each, and it will automatically figure out:
|
|
|
|
* How many of what resources do you need?
|
|
* What tools / machines do you need?
|
|
* How many of what resource do you need for the tools?
|
|
* What items do you need to craft in what order?
|
|
|
|
I've just launched a brand-new version with support for vanilla, Buildcraft, and IndustrialCraft2 (classic) recipes.
|
|
It's all open-source, so anyone can help expand it to cover missing recipes, other mods, or add new features. Check out
|
|
the [GitHub project](https://github.com/andrewminer/crafting-guide) if you'd like to get involved!
|
|
|
|
If you've seen it before, go look again. There's a whole new site now, which supports a lot more than the old one did:
|
|
|
|
* All items have matching icons
|
|
* All recipes show the proper layout on the crafting grid
|
|
* You now get step-by-step instructions
|
|
* You can now make many different items at once (e.g., a whole NanoSuit)

A few more updates to report! First, now your preferences for which mods are active and whether tools are included
|
|
will be remembered between visits. Second, I've finished adding support for Thermal Expansion 4. The crafting algorithm
|
|
doesn't yet taken into account the ore-doubling/tripling machinery, but all the recipes for the entire mod are present
|
|
and functional. I'll work on using the machines in a future update. Next up: IC2 Experimental!
|
|
|
|
########################################################################################################################
|
|
|
|
I've just finished adding support for the latest version of Industrial Craft (2.2.663 on the experimental branch). I've
|
|
also updated the site to let you select the version you're using.
|
|
|
|
########################################################################################################################
|
|
|
|
I just pushed up a big new feature! Now, each Mod has a dedicated page of its own which lists all the items available
|
|
in that mod. Clicking on an item will take you to the crafting guide for that item. It's super fast to switch back and
|
|
forth to explore the items in any given mod. This is the first of many steps for the new mod pages, so keep an eye out
|
|
for more to come!

I've been working on a project to make it easier to deal with complex recipes, and I recently finished adding all the
|
|
core Minecraft recipes. The gist of the site is that you tell it what item(s) you want to make, and it will figure out
|
|
all the raw ingredients you need along with step-by-step instructions for any number of whatever items you like. For
|
|
example, [http://crafting-guide.com/crafting/16.potion_of_fire_resistance_8_00:16.potion_of_healing_ii here's how you
|
|
make] 16 potions of healing II and fire resistance (with extended duration).
|
|
|
|
The maintainers of many of the mods I've added (e.g., BuildCraft / Applied Energistics) have found it useful to include
|
|
links to Crafting Guide in their official documentation, and I was hoping you would think it a good idea to add links
|
|
from this wiki to CraftingGuide as well. I'd be happy to do the work of adding the links myself, but I'd like to make
|
|
sure there are no objections first!
|
|
|
|
Thanks!

Crafting Guide—the ultimate step-by-step guide for Minecraft—Now with item detail pages!
|
|
|
|
I just pushed up another big update! This one adds detail pages for each item from each mod. These detail pages show:
|
|
|
|
* the item's basic information (name, icon, ...)
|
|
* a link to the item's full crafting plan
|
|
* the list of all recipes for that item
|
|
* the list of all items it can be used to make
|
|
* the list of all similar items
|
|
|
|
All of this gives you an extensive reference of related items and recipes. Check it out by seeing what you can do with
|
|
a [Diamond](http://crafting-guide.com/item/diamond)!

I just released another exciting update for Crafting Guide! This update adds a lot of small tweaks and adjustments to
|
|
the site's animations and some performance enhancements, but the big news is an enhanced crafting algorithm and
|
|
Railcraft support!
|
|
|
|
The new crafting algorithm, instead of using the first available recipe for any given item, will now choose the recipe
|
|
which is most effecient at producing that item. In other words, if you have a Macerator, it will be smart enough to use
|
|
it. It is also smart about using machines like the Block Cutting Machine to make plates. And, as an extra bonus, it's
|
|
about twice as fast as the old algorithm.
|
|
|
|
With Railcraft support not only comes the huge richness of that mod, but the first multi-block structures in Crafting
|
|
Guide. For example, check out how to make a [url=http://crafting-guide.com/crafting/blast_furnace]Blast Furnace[/url]!

|
Another big release for Crafting Guide! This time, I've been working on the navigation of the site itself. You'll now
|
|
see a small navigation bar at the top of each page which both tells you where you are as well as letting you jump to
|
|
another location. This make the whole item/mod-browsing part of the site much more visible, and simplifies the crafting
|
|
page a bit. There's even a real home page with a change log! |
