About this Mod

Item Converter

Convert items directly from your inventory/container/me system using recipe types.

Features

Inventory Conversion

Hold the conversion key (default: Left Alt) while hovering over an item to open a conversion popup. The popup shows all available conversion targets based on configured recipe types.

  • Left-click: Convert to inventory
  • Right-click: Drop converted item
  • Release key: Convert all and replace in slot
  • Shift + click: Convert entire stack
  • Number keys (1-9): Quick select and convert to numbered slot

Middle-Click Auto Conversion

Target a block in the world and middle-click to automatically search your inventory for items that can be converted to that block and perform the conversion.

  • In creative mode, hold shift to use this feature (normal middle-click does pick block)
  • Prefers items in main inventory over hotbar
  • Toggle with /itemconverter middleclick

Frequently Asked Questions

Item Converter server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Item Converter compatible with forge?

Item Converter officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.19.4, 1.19.3. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Item Converter – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Item Converter consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
