About this Mod
A mod inspired by equivalent exchange 3 with lots of features from the previous versions
About
The mod is very minimalistic and focuses around the transmutation stone and various utility items all utilizing Matter. It was a concious decision not to include a transmutation table and/or regular armor and tools for balancing reasons. Instead this mod focuses on bringing unique and interesting features from the old equivalent exchange mods back, while coming up with fun concepts itself.
The mod is still in its early stages and prone to bugs.
Features
The mod currently includes:
- The Transmutation Stone
- Destruction Catalyst
- Alchemy Bag
- Exchange Pylon
