About this Mod

thumbnail

Tired of interrupting your mining expeditions to stare at a furnace UI? Instant Smelt eliminates the middleman. The moment your pickaxe breaks an ore, it is instantly purified into its refined form. Spend less time managing coal and more time building, exploring, and conquering your world.

Performance Focused: Built using optimized, modern Minecraft scripting to ensure zero TPS drops, even when vein-mining or using high-efficiency tools.


✨ Features & Mechanics

  • Zero-Delay Processing: Ores drop their refined counterparts instantly onto the ground or directly into your inventory.

  • Enchantment Compatibility:

  • Fortune: Works flawlessly! Get scaled bonus ingots just like you would with raw iron or diamonds.

  • Silk Touch: Respects your enchantments. If you use Silk Touch, you will still get the raw ore block.

  • XP Generation: You don't lose out on progression. Smelting ores instantly grants the standard furnace experience points directly to the player.
