Primitive Tools Mod 1.12.2 (Make Vanilla Minecraft more Unique)

Primitive Tools Mod 1.12.2 is a survival mod that focuses on the early game progression and provides a platform for pack makers to start their progression. It’s designed to be a middle ground between semi-realism and simplicity and to blend in to Vanilla Minecraft nicely.

Features:

• This mod removes recipe access to the vanilla wooden and stone tools.
• Flint must be knapped on a hard surface to fracture it into usable pieces.
• Primitive tools incur a serious speed penalty for using them on an incorrect material.
• The quality of the materials chosen to craft a tool affects it’s durability, you are meant to have to start with sticks and twine fiber bindings and work up to bone and leather bindings.
• Primitive tools are unenchantable. Their crude construction does not conduct magic well.
• The knife is very important for crafting, not just as a weapon.
• The arrow recipe has changed and now requires a flint point instead of flint.

The Knife:

• Knives are the first tool you should make.
• They are the fastest weapon in the game and are a versatile crafting tool.
• Deal critical damage to animals.
• Good for breaking leaves, mushrooms, pumpkins, grass, cactus.
• Craft wool into string.
• Craft saplings into sticks.
• Craft vine blocks into cordage.
• Craft leather into strips.

Wooden Club:

• You’ll want to craft a club for protection.
• While slow and low damage, the club has a powerful knockback effect that will give you time to draw your knife.

The Spear:

• The spear is a long range hunting weapon.
• They stack up to 8 and function like a bow.
• They will be able to be used for fishing and will break and be repairable depending on material used.

The Rock Hammer:

• The rock hammer is currently the same as a pick.
• Igneous rocks must be used because flint is far too brittle to handle the stress of crushing.

Hatchet, Hoe, Pick, and Spade:

• These tools currently have no special functions compared to their vanilla counterparts.
• Their stats are between wood and stone.

Leather Works Integration:

• If Leather Works is installed, this mod will automatically use the Leather Works leather strip item.
• Leather Strips can be crafted with any knife, and flint or shears crafting is reduced to 3 instead of 4.
• Any knife can be used to scrape bark, and is much faster than using flint.
• Any knife can be used to clean hides.

Technical Details (Numbers):

• Durability is calculated as the durability for each part according to: round(head*(binding + rod))
• Spears have a default range of 40 meters.
• Knives will harvest vines with a 25% chance.
• Knives multiply grass drops by 5.
• Knives will harvest fiber with a 30% chance.
• The default chance of harvesting fiber is 17%.
• Knives will harvest flint from sands with a 20% chance.
• The default chance of harvesting flint from sands is 11%.
• Knives will do 8 hearts damage to animals.
