Storing your liquid metals

If you want to keep your metals aside for later, or if you have less than 1 ingot in the Smeltery and would like to save it, place a tank below the Seared Faucet, or hook up a Buildcraft-compatible pipe to the Smeltery drain, and you can pull your molten metals out into a tank for later use.

(However, if you have half an ingot of certain metals, you may find it simpler to either just cast a tool rod of that material and then smelt it down later, or to pour it into a basin and breaking the basin for easy clearing of your smeltery)

To get your metals back into the tank, you must pipe the liquid back into the smeltery. The only methods available with just Tinker’s Construct is detailed below:

Satherian Method: Place a Casting Channel on the Smeltery Drain, then the tank you want to drain out of will be placed one block up and one block over. The faucet is then placed on the tank and above the channel.

ThermX Method: Remove one of the top ring blocks of the Smeltery, and replace it with a drain facing up. The tank is then placed one block away and the faucet on the tank, over the drain.

Using these, it’s possible to create a temporary storage buffer.

• A storage buffer using Seared Glass

A method gained by also using Thermal Expansion is by using Fluiducts. Fluids drained from the Smeltery are extracted from the bottom layers. Fluids inserted are added to the top. You can use this feature to cycle small amounts of liquids from the bottom to the top of the Smeltery by draining into a Fluiduct (long enough to contain all of that particular liquid) then reversing the Fluiduct to add it back on top of the other liquids or by pointing the other end of the Fluiduct pipe into another drain, or the same drain if on a corner. Repeat this process until the liquid you need is at the bottom. (If you use a Fluiduct and some sort of tank instead of a single long Fluiduct, you may end up cycling two liquids instead of one—one in the tank and one in the Fluiduct.)

If you have the space and resources, a less complicated method is to use filtered Fluiducts to pipe molten metals into tanks for longer-term storage, or a Casting Basin, allowing the automatic creation of metal blocks. This can be used as an efficient method of ore processing, just beware of alloys!

Crossbows[edit]

Crossbows are ranged weapons that fire bolts rather than arrows. While they can take longer to fire than a shortbow, crossbows are reloaded without holding a mouse button and a loaded crossbow can be stored, ready to fire later. Crossbow bolts also ignore an amount of armor based on their weight — the heavier the bolt, the greater the armor penetration.

Notes on Crossbow Constructionedit

• The crossbow body part serves as the weapon’s handle and applies the handle modifier to durability.
• The crossbow limb part serves as the weapon’s head and determines base durability, base damage, draw speed, and arrow speed.
• A fiery bowstring makes a crossbow reload slower (1.1x draw time) and fire with more force (1.2x arrow speed). It also adds Reinforced I.
• An enchanted bowstring makes a crossbow reload faster (0.8x draw time) and fire with slightly less force (0.9x arrow speed). It also adds another modification slot, though this currently displays as «Stonebound».

Сплавы

1. ↑ Данные предметы и блоки из оригинальной игры.
2. Удалено в новых версиях

Алюминий, медь, олово были удалены с версии 1.7.10, следовательно бронзу сделать не получится, так как это сплав олова с медью, также алюминиевая латунь будет недоступна. Мод будет поддерживать эти металлы, если скачать дополнение TAIGA(Tinkers alloying addon).

Tinkers’, beside the tools?

Tinkers’ Construct, beside the tools, also offer a few gadgets. Most of them are now in a mod called Tinkers’ Mechworks. However it keeps two major components: Tinkers’ armor and heart canisters.

Canisters

The canisters come in three different levels: Red, Yellow and Green. Miniature Red Hearts drop from any mobs and can be eaten to restore 10 full hearts of life. They can also be crafted into Red Heart Canisters. Miniature Yellow Hearts will drop from boss mob and will restore 20 full hearts of life when eaten. They can be crafted into Yellow Heart Canisters and into Miniature Green Hearts by surrounding them with Emeralds. The latter will restore a full 30 hearts when eaten and can be crafted into Green Heart Canisters. You can have a maximum of ten for each type of heart for a grand total of 80 life points, or 40 hearts!

Armor

Tinkers’ armor can be crafted by using Bronze Large Plates (The same one used into hammer recipe) in the same shape as vanilla armor. Each of them can be modified, like their tool counterpart. Each armor piece has a total of 30 modifiers. Note that not every modifier takes only one spot! You can mix and match the modifiers.

Modifiers

• Redstone: 1 modifier per piece, adds 1% speed each (Max 30% per armor piece)
• Diamond: 3 modifier per piece, adds 5% attack damage (Max 50% per armor piece)
• Gold: 2 modifier per piece, adds 1% knockback resistance (Max 15% per armor piece)
• Block of Quartz: 5 modifier per piece, adds 5 attack damage (Max 30 damage per armor piece)
• Iron Large Plate: 3 modifier per piece, adds 2% protection (Max 20% protection per armor piece)
• Red Heart Canister: 6 modifier per piece, adds 2 max health or 1 heart (Max 10 health per armor piece, giving you a maximum of 120 health or 60 hearts)
• Congealed Blue Slime, Congealed Green Slime, and Ghast Tear: 5 modifier per combination, adds Jump boost

Other

Tinkers’ also adds one mob and a few worldgen items. The Blue Slime will spawn on a blue slime island, which can be found up at around y=150. These will spawn with special dirt and grass known as Blue Slime Dirt and Slimy Grass. It will also generate Slimy Water, which will spawn Blue Slimes.

For ore generation, Tinkers’ adds Copper, Tin, and Aluminum ore in the Overworld and Ardite and Cobalt ore in the Nether.

Metallic Parts

Minecraft Tutorials — Tinkers Construct — Smeltery-1399167009

Learn how to make a smeltery and metal tools in this tutorial video

For metallic materials, you will need to craft a fully functional Smeltery, and a Casting Table.

With your Smeltery set up, and a Casting Table beneath the Seared Faucet, you either need some Aluminum Brass or Gold in your smeltery to make parts. Aluminum Brass is made by melting Aluminum and Copper, in a 3:1 ratio. Every 3 Aluminum and 1 Copper will produce 4 ingots worth of Aluminum Brass.

Once you have some Aluminum Brass or Gold in your Smeltery (you need at least 1 ingot’s worth), place the part you crafted earlier on the Casting Table. Then right-click on the Faucet to pour out a Cast of your part. This Cast will be used for all the metallic materials, so don’t just throw it away after use.

To cast your new metallic part, place the Cast you poured onto an empty Casting Table.  Melt down your metal in the Smeltery, then right click on the Faucet to pour it out over your cast.  Keep in mind that your Cast has a material cost, the same as Patterns.  A Cast with a cost of 3, will require 3 ingots worth of metal in the Smeltery. It will still pour out if you don’t have enough metal for the part. If this happens, you will either have to finish the part by melting more of the same material, pump it out using fluid pipes from another mod, or you’ll need to break the Casting Table and lose the material.  If you end up with more than one molten material in your Smeltery at once, it will attempt to pour out the bottom one first.  Merely click on the metal you want to drain from the control block menu and it will assign that metal to the bottom.

Note: Aluminum Brass, Tin, and Aluminum cannot be used to make tool parts.

Tinkers’ Construct

Minecraft 1.12.2

boni
Requirements: Forge

Tinkers’ Construct is a great mod for constructing, repairing and even modifying tools and weapons in Minecraft. You can also smelt metals to create more powerful weapons and tools to add to your arsenal. You’ll start off with a handbook. This should be your number 1 tool in figuring out everything you can do with this mod. It’s full of recipes and guides to make this mod easier to understand. There are also 4 other craftable books to help with more advanced features.

The mod stems from patterns you create that ultimately craft the different parts to your desired tools and weapons. The tables you’ll need are the crafter, part builder, stencil table, tool station, and tool forge to get the basics going.

The Stencil Table allows you to turn blank patterns into essentially part blueprints. You then use these to create the basic pieces that will craft your tool or weapon. It’s very simple but can get a little overwhelming with how many combinations you can make. That’s where your books will come in handy so reference them often.

The advanced tools come in when you build a smeltery. This allows you to smelt metal into more powerful parts for your tools. The mod also adds a few new ores to the game that only further advance your tools beyond that of diamond capabilities.

So once you’ve got a smeltery and some metals smelted you can make casts from wooden tool parts. Then use those casts with stronger metals to make stronger parts. It’s like turning Minecraft into an RPG with leveling tools and upgrading their abilities and adding new parts to them.

And once you really get the hang of the mod you’ll be able to give your tools special modifiers like auto-repairing. So when your tool starts to deteriorate it’ll actually fix itself over time. Basically you can enchant your tools without needing experience first. It works entirely off of the items you have in your inventory. So instead of going into spells and XP to enhance your tools you can opt for hard work and determination with this mod.

This mod will rely heavily on referencing the in game guides. They will help you immensely in your new trade skills. Get to the point where you can craft yourself a really powerful hammer and blast through your mines in 3×3 chunks. It’s really effective at quick mining with excellent yield and results. There are tons more to do with this mod so have fun discovering new tools!

An additional API, Mantle, is also needed found here.

Overview

All Liquified Materials

The Smeltery is a multi-block structure used in the creation of higher-tier weapons and tools using metal and alloys. It is used to smelt ores, ingots or blocks of almost any metal as well as Obsidian. Alloys include Manyullyn, Bronze, Alumite, Aluminum Brass, and Pig Iron. But beware, if you or other mobs fall into the smeltery while it has liquid in, it causes damage, leaving a layer of blood in the smeltery. This can be used in creating Pig Iron, as well as some alloys added by ExtraTiC. Blood can also be poured into an empty Casting Table to make Congealed Blood. Blood can also be obtained by smelting Rotten Flesh or pushing mobs into the smeltery while it contains a molten liquid. Other liquids can also be obtained in this manner, Horses will give you glue, while Villagers provide Liquified Emerald which is also needed for Pig Iron, and Iron Golems provide Iron.
