Iguana Tweaks

IguanaTweaks was a mod back in 1.6/1.7 days which made the game basically harder by simply modifiying vanilla mechanics or adding some new ones.
The mod was originally created by iguana_man and ported to 1.7 by Parker8283. In 2018 I've decided to take over and "reborn" the mod by rewriting it for 1.12. 2 years later the mod is undergoing another complete rewrite for 1.15+.

Data Pack

REMOVED TEMPORARILY.
Bundled with the mod there's a datapack that changes a few aspects of the game:

  • Raw Iron now smelts to nuggets so you need more iron to obtain your first iron tools. (Iron ore still smelts to iron ingots)
  • Chain recipe requires only 3 nuggets instead of 2 nuggets and 1 iron ingot
  • Chainmail armor can now be crafted with Leather and Chains
  • Shield recipe has changed to require Logs and Leather
  • Stone has 10% chance (increased with Fortune) to drop an Iron Nugget. Same for Basalt and Gold Nuggets
  • Cake now drops if not eaten when broken
  • Silverfishes drop 0-2 iron nuggets
  • Crossbows can no longer be crafted, must be obtained from pillagers / Outposts
  • Rails are simpler and slightly less expensive to craft
  • Beetroot soups now require only 3 beetroots to be crafted
  • Sandstone and Red Sandstone recipes now output 2 instead of 1
  • Dark Prismarine is now crafted with Prismarine instead of shards
  • Clay can be broken down to balls in the crafting table
  • Sticky Pistons and Leads can now be crafted with Honey
