Materials

Materials

EE does not come with any pre-configured materials. Therefore the creation of any materials will need to be done entirely by the modpack developer.

To create a new material:

Locate the emendatusenigmatica\material config folder inside the root config folder.
Create a *.json file inside this folder for each material you wish to add to the game.

The file you have just created represents a Material Data Object. Below you will find a more detailed breakdown of a Material Data Object showing what is required for each material and giving a brief explanation of each module and data field. All Data Generation will be done by the mod the next time you run your game. An example of a complete material file can be found .

Note: The mod is capable of using the material color data in this file to create tint-based textures for your materials, however, should you prefer a more artistic option you can provide your own textures through a custom Resource Pack. More information on how to set up your own EE Resource Pack and a set of available textures and texture templates are available . If no texture is provided via a resource pack the mod will automatically generate textures the next time the game is run.

Material JSON file content:

Material Core module:

REQUIRED FIELD

"id": string // example: "id": "iridium"

Used for all registry naming conventions, note: this must be a unique identifier for each material.

REQUIRED FIELD

"source": string // example: "source": "modded"

Identifies whether the material added is vanilla, or modded. This field affects recipes, and other data generation.

REQUIRED FIELD

"localizedName": string // example: "localizedName": "Iridium"

Used for the generation of the lang (en_us) entries of the material. This is the name you will see in game and in JEI.

REQUIRED FIELD

"processedTypes": [ string ] // example: "processedTypes": ["storage_block", "ingot", "ore", "gear"]

A list object which contains a list of strings of supported types. A complete list of supported Processed Types can be found .

"disableDefaultOre": boolean // example: "disableDefaultOre": false

This field only affects "source": "vanilla" materials, and if set to true, it will disable the ore generation of these materials. This includes the standard Vanilla Ores and the large Ore Veins of Copper and Iron.

"properties": { object }

"oreDrop": { object }

"tools": { object }

"armor": { object }

"colors": { object }

"gas": { object }

Material Properties module:

REQUIRED FIELD

"materialType": string // example: "materialType": "metal"

Identifies whether the material is metal, gem, or alloy based.

0: Wood/Gold 1: Stone 2: Iron 3: Diamond 4: Netherite

"hasParticles": boolean // example: "hasParticles": true

If set to true, the Ore block of this material will have particles.
You can set your particles color in the Material Color module.

"hasOxidization": boolean // example: "hasOxidization": true

If set to true, the Storage Block of this material will undergo 4 stages of oxidization when exposed to air. The oxidization can be scrapped off with an axe, or waxed with a Honeycomb similar to Vanilla Copper Blocks.
You can set your oxidization color in the Material Color module.

"isEmissive": boolean // example: "isEmissive": true

If set to true, the Ore block of this material will glow in the dark.

"isBurnable": boolean // example: "isBurnable": true

If set to true, all Processed Types of this material will have a burn time associated with them, marking them as a valid furnace fuel.

"burnTime": integer // example: "burnTime": 3600

Determines the efficiency of the Material as a burnable fuel. The default should be 1600 which is similar to Vanilla Coal, and can smelt 8 items.

"blockRecipeType": integer // example: "blockRecipeType": 4

If the material has both gem and storage_block as processed types, this field can be used to determine whether the block recipe is 9x or 4x gems per block.

"max": integer // example: "max": 9

Determines the maximum number of drops when mining the ore.

"uniformCount": boolean // example: "uniformCount": true

Forces the drop to use a Uniformed Count similar to Vanilla Redstone instead of a standard range like Vanilla Lapis Lazuli.
