Not Enough Recipe Book [NERB] in Project Infinity 0.1

Same as in the All the Mods 10: To the Sky 2.0.4 guide

Not Enough Recipe Book, or NERB for short, does one thing: it completely removes the recipe book from the game. Other mods just hide the recipe book button. NERB removes the recipe book's functionality entirely.^[1]

The reason is player data. In a large modpack, a fully unlocked recipe book fills your player data with recipe names. You can see this by running /data get entity @s, which prints a huge wall of text. With NERB installed, those recipe names disappear.^[1]

Why you'd want it

• Scripts that read player data, such as CraftTweaker or KubeJS scripts using event.player.data, run faster because there is much less data to read.^[1]
• Data sync between the server and the client is faster.^[1]
• Players join the world faster.^[1]

This mod is mostly for pack makers and server admins who care about performance. If you just play the pack, you don't have to do anything. It works in the background.^[1]

In this pack

The pack ships Not Enough Recipe Book version 0.4.3, built for NeoForge.^[2]

Unverified The sources I was given don't show any quests, guidebook entries or ATM Star path steps for this mod, so I can't say where it fits in progression. It looks like a background performance mod rather than something you progress through.

Good news: there's nothing to set up here. Not Enough Recipe Book (NERB) has one job, which is to remove the recipe book from the game completely. It doesn't just hide the recipe book button, it removes the recipe book's functionality entirely.^[1]

What it does for you

In a big modpack with a fully unlocked recipe book, running /data get entity @s dumps a huge amount of player data, and most of it is recipe names. With NERB installed, those recipe names disappear.^[1]

• Scripts that read player data, such as CraftTweaker or KubeJS scripts using event.player.data, run faster.^[1]
• Other mods that read player data also get faster.^[1]
• Data sync between the server and the client speeds up.^[1]
• Players join the world faster.^[1]

What to make first

Unverified No crafting recipes, quests, or items for this mod were found in the data available for this guide, so there is nothing to craft or unlock. To find recipes, use your recipe viewer instead of the vanilla recipe book, which this mod removes. This site does hold Project Infinity 0.1's own recipes, read from the pack itself: look the item up in the item browser.

This mod has no machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or item automation to learn. It does one job: it completely removes the recipe book from the game. That makes this section short, but it's worth knowing what the mod does behind the scenes.^[1]

What it actually does

Plenty of mods hide the recipe book button. This one doesn't stop at hiding it. It removes the recipe book's functionality entirely.^[1]

Why it helps in a big modpack

In a large modpack with a fully unlocked recipe book, run /data get entity @s and you'll get a huge wall of data. Most of it is recipe names. With this mod installed, those recipe names disappear from your player data.^[1]

• Scripts that read player data, such as CraftTweaker or KubeJS scripts using event.player.data in event scripts, run faster because there's far less data to read.^[1]
• Other mods that read player data benefit in the same way.^[1]
• Data sync between the server and the client speeds up.^[1]
• Players join the world faster.^[1]

Unverified Nothing beyond the project description is documented for this mod in this pack. No config options, items, recipes or in-game descriptions were available, so there's no way to tune it and it adds no crafting content. This site does hold Project Infinity 0.1's own recipes, read from the pack itself: look the item up in the item browser.

There isn't much version history to cover for Not Enough Recipe Book [NERB] in this pack. Project Infinity 0.1 0.0.51.4-hotfix-2 ships version 0.4.1, the Forge build for Minecraft 1.20.1. It has been in the pack since 0.0.45.4 or earlier.^[3]

The mod's own changelog for 0.4.1 has a single entry: it backported changes from 1.21.X. The entry doesn't say which changes those were, so what they change in your game isn't confirmed.^[4]

Unverified Pack changelog entries for this mod are not shown in the sources here, so any pack-specific changes to it would be listed in the pack's own changelogs, which are not confirmed in this guide.
