Create Deco Additions
Adds mod compatibility for many mods by changing Create Deco's tags to the official ones.
About this Mod
How it works
This simple data pack is a compatibility addon between Create: Deco and several other mods like Create: Crafts Additions or Create: Dreams & Desires. And this without any new recipes or anything like that! Instead, it just changes the tags of Create: Deco (for example, in JEI or REI you can search for "$createdeco:internal/plates/zinc" to see all the zinc plates registered in Create: Deco) to the official ones, "#forge:plates/zinc" or "#c:zinc_sheets", depending on your modloader. This has several advantages.
Why I did this
To yet, Create Deco uses its own tag system ("#createdeco:internal/..."). This means that only items in Create Deco's tag can be used for several recipes. And no mod on earth will start tags only for Create Deco! (understandable)
For example this caused a problem with Create Crafts & Additions: Both Create Deco and Create Crafts Additions added a zinc sheet and a fitting recipe (pressing). If you put an zinc ingot under a press, the system had to decide whether the ingot should turn into a Create Deco or Create Crafts Additions zinc sheet. It always chose the same. So some items from some of the mods became unobtainable.
With this data pack, you can craft with both zinc sheets items from both mods.
By the way, I also fixed the github issue #124.
Feel free to use this in any modpack you want, but as soon as a new version of Create Deco comes out with these features, I'll remove this datapack. Stay up to date!
