Cotton Resources

Cotton Resources provides mod authors with a selection of different blocks and items that are commonly used. We did all the work for you, there are finished high-quality textures, incredibly structured JSON files and stunning crafting recipes. Even ore gen is handled by us. And we will add whatever you need to Minecraft at runtime! And the best thing about them: We will also handle pesky duplicates; there won't be two different copper ingots that can do the exact same things but have different textures. All you have to do to use them is to follow our 3-step guide below:

Using an Item From Cotton Resources:

NOTE

Please note that Cotton Resources previously needed to know which items/blocks you want to register. Now, it registers everything by default, so you (and players) won't need to worry about that.

1. Use it

Cotton Resources will make sure that copper_ingot and some default recipes will be added to minecraft. You can now access it in your json files (e.g. crafting recipes) by using "cotton:copper_ingot".

2. ???

3. Profit!

Using a Block From Cotton Resources:

1. Use it

Cotton Resources will make sure that copper_ore, some default recipes, and its BlockItem will be added to minecraft. You can now access it in your json files (e.g. crafting recipes) by using "cotton:copper_ore".

Supported Item and Blocks

Down here is a list of all blocks and items we currently support. This is an ever-growing list, so make sure to check back frequently.

Base Materials

ResourceType Name Description Since Version
coal coal_dust Needed for graphite and possibly steel v.0.0.1
coal_coke coal_coke Good second-tier power gen option v.0.0.1
coal_coke_block
mercury mercury great for magical applications, and in the ancient world was incorrectly thought to keep one healthy when drank - see also the Pythagorean Cup v.0.0.1
uranium uranium_dust Uranium and its byproducts can make a really great high-risk/high-reward/high-tier energy system v.0.0.1
plutonium plutonium_dust Plutonium can't be found in a rock in any decent quantity anywhere. It's a byproduct of uranium fission, but plutonium fission is more energetic, making it a second-tier nuclear fuel capable of decaying back into uranium. v.0.0.1
thorium thorium_dust Thorium, found rarely in monazite deposits, can start several fission chains either burning it out, or "breeding" upwards into fissionable uranium or plutonium. It can occasionally be obtained from random decay of uranium and plutonium. v.0.0.1
copper copper_ingot Copper's a great low-tier conductor for both heat and electricity. Its high ductility is the reason we think of wires as flexible. Corrodes easily. v.0.0.1
copper_nugget
copper_dust
copper_block
silver silver_ingot Silver is corrosion resistant, and is a better conductor - both heat and electricity - than copper and gold. Rare, and loaded with magical lore. v.0.0.1
silver_nugget
silver_dust
silver_block
lead lead_ingot Lead is synonymous with heavy and slow. Used for irrigation pipes in the ancient world, also used to sink fishing bait, to plumb quality architecture, and for drywall or concrete anchors. v.0.0.1
lead_nugget
lead_dust
lead_block
zinc zinc_ingot Zinc is a secondary product of many ores, and is a key ingredient in brass. Zinc is insanely easy to corrode, to the point where they attach zinc blocks to oil rigs to keep them from rusting. v.0.0.1
zinc_nugget
zinc_dust
zinc_block

Steels and Alloys

ResourceType Name Description Composition Since Version
steel steel_ingot Steel has excellent tensile strength, good for mid- to high-tier tools, structures, and machines 1 iron_ingot + 4 coal_dust? = 1 steel_ingot v.0.0.1
steel_nugget
steel_dust
steel_block
electrum electrum_ingot Electrum is a soft metal, not appropriate for heavy machinery, but is a corrosion-resistant conductor. It was also used to top obelisks and pyramids in ancient Egypt. 1 gold_ingot + 1 silver_ingot = 2 electrum_ingot v.0.0.1
electrum_nugget
electrum_dust
electrum_block
brass brass_ingot Brass has excellent corrosion resistance and low friction, making it great for clockwork and pneumatics, instruments, and naval applications 3 copper_ingot + 1 zinc_ingot = 4 brass_ingot v.0.0.1
brass_nugget
brass_dust
brass_block
