What is Dyenamics and Friends?

Dyenamics and Friends is part of the pack as version 1.21.1-2.1.6, shipped as the file dyenamicsandfriends-1.21.1-2.1.6.jar. It has been in the pack for a long time, since version 2.47 or earlier.[1]

Unverified What the mod adds, who it is best suited for, and any pack-specific changes to its recipes or configs could not be confirmed. No platform description or in-jar guidebook was available, so this page doesn't describe its items or mechanics.

Unverified No quests in this pack were found that involve this mod, and it does not appear to be on the ATM Star quest path. You shouldn't need it to make progress there, but this is based on the absence of data, not on a source that says so.

How do you get started with Dyenamics and Friends?

4 parts

Dyenamics and Friends doesn't add a new machine or a progression chain. It adds extra dyed variants of items from other mods in the pack: sleeping bags, Create seats, elevators, foundry parts, kitchen floors, connecting glass and painted planks. Every recipe in this section was added by the pack, so follow these rather than the mod's defaults.[2][3]

I'm using Amber and Aquamarine as the examples, because their recipes are shown in the sources. Bubblegum connecting glass panes appear in the recipes too. The painted planks also come in many other colors, such as Cherenkov, Lavender and Ultramarine. I can't confirm the other colors' recipes beyond that.[2][3]

Step 1: Get your dye and wool

Nearly everything here starts with a dye from the matching color tag or with the colored wool. The sleeping bag, seat and elevator all use Amber Wool or the Aquamarine equivalent. The planks, glass and machine blocks use any dye of that color. Craft those first so the rest is quick.[2]

Step 2: Painted planks, slabs and stairs

Painted planks are a good build material to start with. You combine a matching dye with any planks, then turn the result into slabs and stairs.[2]

Step 3: Comfort and travel

Next, make a Amber Sleeping Bag straight from the colored wool. Your base will look better and you'll have a bed ready.[2]

If you already have a Create seat, you can recolor it with the dye instead of making a new one.[2]

Finally: Recolor your machines and glass

Once your base is running, you can recolor blocks you already have. The foundry parts (controller, tank, drain, capacitor and window) and fire bricks are shapeless dye recipes. Combine the dye with the matching uncolored part. The Amber Kitchen Floor is made from a white kitchen floor and the dye, and Amber Petrified Honey from Petrified Honey and the dye.[2]

For connecting glass, you can craft it from a Dyenamics stained glass or from plain connecting glass plus the dye. A pane can be made from the matching stained glass pane, from connecting glass pane plus dye, or from the connecting glass block.[2]

Tip: Because the recolor recipes accept any item in the matching tag, such as any foundry tank or any fire bricks, you can swap colors on parts you've already placed or crafted without rebuilding from scratch.[2]

How does Dyenamics and Friends work?

4 parts

In this pack, the sources show Dyenamics and Friends as a set of dyed variants of blocks from other mods, made with Dyenamics colours. The sources describe no machines, multiblocks or power of its own for the mod, so there is nothing to wire up here. How a dyed block behaves once placed is covered by the original block it is based on.[2][3]

The recipes below use Amber as the example. The recipe dump also shows matching Aquamarine recipes, and the language file lists painted planks in many more colours. Every recipe shown here is marked as added by the pack.[2][3]

Foundry parts

Productive Metalworks foundry parts can be recoloured. You combine an amber dye with any block from the matching foundry tag. That gives you the Amber Foundry Controller, Amber Foundry Tank, Amber Foundry Drain, Amber Foundry Capacitor and Amber Foundry Window. Each of these is a shapeless recipe.[2]

Amber Foundry ControllerAdded by the pack

The other foundry parts follow the same dye-plus-tag pattern.

Fire bricks get both a shaped recipe and a shapeless recipe. Each takes an amber dye and any block from the fire bricks tag, and each gives Amber Fire Bricks. The Aquamarine versions follow the same pattern, giving Aquamarine Fire Bricks.[2]

Elevators and seats

The Amber Elevator is crafted from Amber Wool and an ender pearl. The Aquamarine Elevator works the same way with Aquamarine Wool. Both are shaped recipes.[2]

Amber Wool and an ender pearl make the Amber Elevator in this pack.

For Create seats there are different routes to the Amber Seat. You can craft it shapelessly from Amber Wool and any wooden slab. Or you can recolour any existing seat from the Create seats tag with an amber dye.[2]

Decor blocks

Chalk box

The language file includes a chalk box tooltip that reads "This one works with Dyenamics dyes". It is the only tooltip text for this mod in the sources, and it describes no further mechanics.[3]

Tip: Most of these blocks are made by combining a Dyenamics dye or wool with something you already have. If you want a particular colour, look up that colour's own recipe: the dump lists matching recipes for Aquamarine as well as Amber.[2]

How do you progress through Dyenamics and Friends?

3 parts

Dyenamics and Friends has no tiers in the usual sense. It doesn't add machines or a power curve. It adds extra Dyenamics colors to blocks from other mods, so your progression here is really the progression of those other mods. This section just shows you where the dyed versions fit in.[2]

Unverified No quests in this pack are confirmed to involve this mod, and it isn't confirmed to be on the main quest path. Treat the stages below as a suggested order based on the recipes, not as quest steps.

Stage 1: Dyed basics

The pack adds recipes for early comfort and building items in the new colors. The sources show these for Amber and Aquamarine: Amber Sleeping Bag, Amber Seat, Amber Painted Planks and the matching slab and stairs. Aquamarine versions of all of these exist too.[2]

Stage 2: Recoloring blocks you already have

Many entries take a block from another mod and turn it into a colored version. That covers Amber Kitchen Floor, Amber Petrified Honey and the connecting stained glass, such as Connecting Amber Stained Glass. There is also a recipe that recolors an existing seat into Amber Seat. Because you need the original block first, you unlock these as you progress in the mod that owns it.[2]

The connecting glass has more colors than Amber and Aquamarine. The visible recipes also include Bubblegum, Cherenkov, Conifer and Fluorescent, and each color has recipes for both the full block and the pane. The recipe list I was given is cut off, so there may be more colors than I can confirm.[2]

Stage 3: Foundry parts and utility blocks

The latest-stage items here are the colored foundry pieces. The sources show colored fire bricks, a controller, a tank, a drain, a window and a capacitor, for example Amber Foundry Controller and Amber Fire Bricks. Each is made by dyeing the matching foundry part, so you need to have reached the foundry first. The colors are purely cosmetic. The sources don't show any change in how these parts work.[2]

Tip: All the recipes I checked are marked as added by the pack, so don't assume a standalone install of this mod has the same ones. Unlock the base block or machine you want to recolor, then come back for the dyed version.[2]

How does Dyenamics and Friends work with other mods?

2 parts

Dyenamics and Friends is the part of the pack that carries the extra Dyenamics dye colors over to other mods. Its item ids start with the name of the mod they connect to, such as connectedglass_, create_, comforts_, cookingforblockheads_, elevatorid_ and productivebees_. Every recipe below was added by the pack.[2]

Connecting glass

This is the biggest link by far. The pack adds connecting versions of the Dyenamics stained glass and glass panes, such as Connecting Amber Stained Glass and Connecting Amber Stained Glass Pane. Most colors have one recipe starting from the Dyenamics stained glass and a second starting from the base connecting glass, so you can pick whichever route suits what you have on hand. Amber is shown here as the example, and the other colors follow the same naming pattern.[2]

What changed in Dyenamics and Friends between versions?

Here's how Dyenamics and Friends has moved through the pack's releases. The pack changelogs only record version bumps for this mod, so they don't say what changed inside each update.[4][5][6]

  • All the Mods 10 2.47: Dyenamics and Friends was added to the pack at version 1.21.1-2.1.1.[6]
  • All the Mods 10 4.3: updated from 1.21.1-2.1.1 to 1.21.1-2.1.2.[5]
  • All the Mods 10 4.5: updated from 1.21.1-2.1.2 to 1.21.1-2.1.6, which is the version you get in this pack.[1][4]

The 4.5 mod list confirms the shipped file is dyenamicsandfriends-1.21.1-2.1.6.jar.[1]

Unverified The mod's own changelogs for the shipped jars are not stored, so the sources here do not show what versions 2.1.2 through 2.1.6 added or fixed. Any gameplay, recipe or dye changes between these versions are unconfirmed.
