Iron's Lib guide for FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.0.3 to 1.8.0

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

Iron's Lib is a library mod. Its job is to provide common functionality and content for Iron's mods, so it's mostly a foundation that other mods build on rather than something you play with directly.^[1]

Under the hood it adds reusable frameworks for those mods, plus a Patreon Integration API layer. If you're curious what it brings to the table, here's what it currently supports:^[1]

• A Transmog Table block and an Armor Transmog Framework.^[1]
• Player Statue blocks, along with Player Statue asset generation and structure generation tools.^[1]
• A Decorative Statue Framework for creating dynamic multiblocks and rendering baked statue models.^[1]
• Patreon Integration support for all of the above.^[1]

Version in the pack

This pack ships Iron's Lib 1.21.1-2.1.0. It was already included in an earlier release (6.4 or before), so it's a long-standing part of the modlist.^[2]

Where it fits in progression

Unverified No quests in this pack involve Iron's Lib, it isn't on the ATM Star path, and no in-jar guidebook was found for it. Nothing here confirms it as a progression step, so treat it as a supporting library.

Same as in the FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.10.0 guide

Iron's Lib is a library mod. It provides shared content and frameworks for other Iron's mods, plus a Patreon integration layer, so there is very little to set up. The one thing you can make yourself is the transmog table.^[1]

Make the Patreon Transmog Table

The Patreon Transmog Table is the block that goes with the mod's armor transmog framework. It is the first thing worth crafting, because the mod's other blocks are decorative or tied to Patreon features. Here is the in-pack recipe:^[1][3]

This is the recipe the pack uses for the table.

Know what the table checks

Transmog options are tied to Patreon status. If you lack the permission, the tooltip shows "Missing transmog permissions". Individual options also show "Requires %s Patreon Status", where %s is filled in with the required level. So some options may be locked for you even with a working table.^[4]

The Patreon Statue

The mod also adds a Patreon Statue block. Use a nametag of a Patron on it to set the player, then crouch-click it to edit the pose. Click to set a pose from the list, which includes Applause, Ballet, Waving and Zombie.^[1][4]
