PotionsMaster guide for All the Mods 10 2.43 to 4.4

PotionsMaster is included in this pack as version 0.6.9.1-packdev, so it's there for you to use right from the start of your playthrough.^[1]

Unverified The sources available for this section don't describe what PotionsMaster adds, how its mechanics work, who it's aimed at, or where it fits in the pack's progression. Check the mod's items and recipes in-game (for example with a recipe viewer) until this guide covers them. This site does hold All the Mods 10's own recipes, read from the pack itself: look the item up in the item browser.

Same as in the All the Mods 10 4.14 guide

PotionsMaster in this pack is all about powders, and every one of them starts with the same small toolkit. Here's the order I'd go in, and why.^[2]

First: make the Mortar and the Pestle

Start with the Mortar and the Pestle. Both are the mod's own recipes, and they show up as ingredients in the Ender Powder recipe and in the pack's oresight powder recipes, so nothing else works until you have them.^[2]

This is also a mod recipe, and it takes gems from item tags, so any matching gem works.

Next: grind Ender Powder

Next comes Ender Powder. It's a shapeless recipe that uses the Pestle and Mortar you just made. The pack's oresight powder recipes also call for it, so it's the bridge between the toolkit and the useful stuff.^[2]

Shapeless mod recipe that uses the Pestle and Mortar as tools.

Then: craft an oresight powder

The pack adds an oresight powder recipe for a long list of materials, and these are KubeJS recipes added by the pack, not mod defaults. That list includes Iron Oresight Powder, Copper Oresight Powder, Diamond Oresight Powder and the pack-specific metals like Allthemodium Oresight Powder, Vibranium Oresight Powder and Unobtainium Oresight Powder. The recipe below shows the pattern most of them follow.^[2]

Iron is a good first one to try. Most other materials follow the same pattern.

A few variants have their own recipe layout instead of the usual pattern: Coal Oresight Powder, Netherite Scrap Oresight Powder and Redstone Oresight Powder. Coal is shown below.^[2]

Finally: calcinate the powder

Most oresight powders also have a calcinated version, such as Calcinated Iron Oresight Powder. The pack adds these as blasting recipes that take the matching oresight powder as the input.^[2]

• Iron Oresight Powder

Recipe id: minecraft:kjs/potionsmaster_calcinated_iron_oresight_powder

A pack-added blasting recipe that turns the oresight powder into its calcinated form.

Unverified What the oresight powders and their calcinated versions actually do once you have them is not shown in the sources here. There is no guidebook, no item descriptions and no quests for this mod, so check it in-game before relying on it.

In this pack, PotionsMaster is built around oresight powders. Each powder matches one ore, and the pack adds the crafting recipes for them itself. Every one of these recipes is a shaped crafting table recipe, and the pack's files show no machines, power or fluid handling for this mod.^[3]

Oresight powders

The pack has an oresight powder for each of these ores: Coal Oresight Powder, Iron Oresight Powder, Copper Oresight Powder, Gold Oresight Powder, Redstone Oresight Powder, Lapis Oresight Powder, Diamond Oresight Powder, Emerald Oresight Powder, Quartz Oresight Powder, Netherite Scrap Oresight Powder, Tin Oresight Powder, Lead Oresight Powder, Silver Oresight Powder, Nickel Oresight Powder, Aluminum Oresight Powder, Osmium Oresight Powder, Platinum Oresight Powder and Allthemodium Oresight Powder.^[3]

All of these recipes follow the same pattern. They share a common base that includes Ender Powder, the Pestle and the Mortar, and only the ore material changes from powder to powder. Once you have made one, you already know how the rest work.^[3]

How ores are defined in the configs

Every ore the mod knows about has its own JSON file in the config/potionsmaster folder. Here is what those files look like in this pack.^[4][5][6]

• Coal, copper, diamond, emerald, gold, iron, lapis, netherite, quartz and redstone each have a file with the same five keys: oretag, color, entryname, order and drawing. In all of them, order is set to 0 and drawing is set to false.^{[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]}
• Allthemodium, aluminum, lead, nickel, osmium, platinum, silver, tin, unobtainium, uranium, vibranium and zinc also each have a file with those same five keys, again with order set to 0 and drawing set to false.^{[4][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]}
• The oretag key points each entry at a common ore tag. For example, oretag is set to c:ores/iron and oretag is set to c:ores/diamond.^[6][8]
• The entryname key is simply the ore's name. The netherite file is the odd one out: entryname is netherite_scrap, and its oretag is c:ores/netherite_scrap.^[12]
• The color key gives each ore its own colour value. For example, color and color are set to different values.^[9][14]

Unobtainium, vibranium, uranium and zinc have config entries too, each pointing at its own ore tag: oretag, oretag, oretag and oretag.^{[22][23][24][25]}

Unverified The pack's files don't confirm whether unobtainium, vibranium, uranium and zinc have their own oresight powders or recipes.

Unverified The pack's files also don't explain several things. They don't say what the color and drawing options change in game. They don't say how oresight powders become potions, how long the effect lasts, or whether the Pestle and Mortar are used up. They don't say whether any of this can be automated.

Same as in the All the Mods 10 4.14 guide

Unverified Whether the pack's quest book has any quest or chapter involving this mod is not shown in the sources here. Check the quest book itself. Because of that, the progression below follows the in-pack recipes only.

The recipes form a clear chain: tools, then Ender Powder, then oresight powders, then calcinated powders. Each step feeds the next.^[2]

First, your tools

Everything starts with the Pestle and the Mortar. Both use the mod's own recipes. The Pestle takes a diamond gem and a quartz gem. The Mortar takes stone plus any type of brick.^[2]

Next, Ender Powder

Next you make Ender Powder. It is a shapeless recipe from the mod that uses an ender pearl together with the Pestle and Mortar you just built. Every oresight powder crafting recipe in this pack needs it, so make a good stock.^[2]

Then, oresight powders

The pack adds a crafting recipe for each oresight powder. Every one uses glowstone dust, redstone, Ender Powder, the Pestle and the Mortar, plus a base material that matches the ore you want.^[2]

Most metals take any raw material of that type. That covers Iron Oresight Powder, Gold Oresight Powder, Osmium Oresight Powder, Unobtainium Oresight Powder and Allthemodium Oresight Powder.^[2]

A few powders break the pattern and have their own base input: the diamond, emerald, lapis and quartz powders, Coal Oresight Powder, Netherite Scrap Oresight Powder and Redstone Oresight Powder. Check their recipes below and above.^[2]

The simplest one, with no extra base material.

Finally, calcinated powders

The last step is calcinating. Each oresight powder has a calcinated version, such as Calcinated Iron Oresight Powder or Calcinated Vibranium Oresight Powder. You make it with a blasting recipe that takes the finished oresight powder, and the pack adds these recipes too.^[2]

Calcinated Iron Oresight PowderAdded by the pack

Blasting

• Iron Oresight Powder

Recipe id: minecraft:kjs/potionsmaster_calcinated_iron_oresight_powder

A blasting recipe added by the pack. The other calcinated powders work the same way.

This pack configures PotionsMaster one ore at a time. Each ore has its own JSON file in the config/potionsmaster folder. A typical file, like the one for iron, has five options: color, drawing, entryname, order and oretag. To change how the mod treats a specific ore, open that ore's file.^[6]

How the pack sets each option

• oretag points each file at a common ore tag. For example, oretag is set to c:ores/allthemodium, and oretag is set to c:ores/iron.^[4][6]
• entryname is the ore's name, like allthemodium or iron. The netherite file is a little different: in entryname the entry is called netherite_scrap, and its tag is c:ores/netherite_scrap.^[4][6][12]
• color is stored as a single signed number. Redstone uses -65,536 in color, emerald uses -16,711,936, lapis uses -16,776,961 and quartz uses -1.^{[9][11][13][14]}
• drawing is set to false and order is set to 0 in the ore files, for example drawing and order. The next list shows these values for every ore file.^[8][10]

Which ores have a config file

• Coal, copper, iron, gold, redstone, lapis, diamond, emerald, quartz and netherite scrap. Each of these files sets drawing to false and order to 0.^{[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]}
• Aluminum, tin, lead, nickel, silver, platinum, zinc, osmium and uranium. Each of these files also sets drawing to false and order to 0.^{[15][16][17][18][19][20][21][23][25]}
• Allthemodium, vibranium and unobtainium. These files also set drawing to false and order to 0.^[4][22][24]

Unverified The pack's files don't say what each option does in game. Color may set the highlight colour, drawing may turn an ore on or off, and order may control sorting, but none of this is confirmed. It is also unconfirmed whether any of these values differ from the mod's defaults, and whether adding a new file with another ore tag adds support for more ores.

PotionsMaster has been part of All the Mods 10 for a long time. The pack's mod list shows it was already included in version 2.2 or earlier, and All the Mods 10 4.4 ships version 0.6.9.1-packdev.^[1]

Version bumps in the pack changelogs

• All the Mods 10 2.31: updated from 0.6.6-packdev to 0.6.7-packdev.^[26]
• All the Mods 10 2.34: updated from 0.6.7-packdev to 0.6.8-packdev.^[27]
• All the Mods 10 2.42: updated from 0.6.8-packdev to 0.6.9.1-packdev, the version still in 4.4.^[1][28]

The pack changelogs only record that the version number changed. They don't say what each update added, fixed or rebalanced, and no changelogs for the shipped jars are stored. I can't tell you what changed in-game between these versions.^[26][27][28]

Unverified The specific gameplay changes, recipe changes and bug fixes in each PotionsMaster update are unconfirmed. Check the mod's own release notes before relying on any of them.
