Iron Chests (with Netherite Chest)
A fork of Iron Chest for 1.12 adding a Netherite Chest
About this Mod
This is a fork of the 1.12.2 version of Iron Chests that adds a Netherite Chest that holds 192 stacks, which is almost double the capacity of the Diamond, Crystal, and Obsidian Chests. Those three chests can be upgraded to a Netherite Chest. Also includes Shulker Boxes.
Additional features
- Optional Shulker recipe rebalance
- Optional colored menus based on material
This mod is useable without a backport mod like Future MC, however, the chest will be unobtainable in survival. Any mod's Netherite should be usable in crafting recipes as long as it has the proper OreDict tags.
Chest item fire immunity code is taken from Unseen's Nether Backport.
