Blasting Raw Metal Blocks

What it does Blasting Raw Metal Blocks adds recipes that let you smelt entire blocks of raw metal into their corresponding metal blocks. Instead of breaking raw blocks into individual items and smelting them one by one, you toss the whole block into a blast furnace or a regular furnace and get a full metal block out. The mod covers the standard raw metal blocks - raw iron, raw copper, raw gold - and the output matches the vanilla metal blocks you already use. ## Configuration Everything is configurable. You can change the cooking time in ticks for blast furnace recipes, toggle whether normal furnace recipes exist at all, and edit the full list of raw blocks, their smelted results, and the experience each recipe grants. The config lives at config/blastingraw.json in your profile folder, and you can also adjust it through the in-game config screen. Any change requires a game restart to take effect. ## Who it suits This mod fits players who mine in bulk and want to process raw metal blocks without the repetitive crafting and smelting loop. It works well in modpacks that keep vanilla progression but want a quality-of-life shortcut for large hauls. Server owners can tune the experience values and furnace compatibility to match their economy or progression pace. ## Compatibility The mod runs on Fabric, Quilt, Forge, and NeoForge. Supported Minecraft versions are 1.21, 1.21.1, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, and 26.2. But it requires the mod on the server side; the client doesn't need it installed. No other dependencies are listed. ## License Released under the MIT License.
