Anvil Never Too Expensive — Modern Port for Minecraft 26.3 (Fabric)

Removes the anvil "Too Expensive!" cap — repair, rename, or enchant anything you can afford.

Ever had to let a perfectly enchanted pickaxe break because the game decided you weren't allowed to use your hard-earned levels on repairing it? Anvil Never Too Expensive removes that level cap entirely. No longer will perfectly fine equipment go to waste because the game limits your possibilities!

Now with a modern port for Minecraft 26.3 (Fabric).

What it does

• Removes the level cap when repairing/renaming/enchanting at an anvil
• Extremely lightweight, no incompatibilities expected
• Does not enable cheating — the interaction still costs levels
• Recommended on both server & client, technically only needed server-side

Modern port notes (26.3)

• Same two-constant mixin as the original (AnvilMenu.createResult 40/39)
• Java 25 · Fabric Loader 0.20.1+ · Fabric API 0.165.0+26.3
• Built and verified in CI via GitHub Actions, including a headless runtime test that launches the client, joins a world, and quits cleanly

Installation

1. Install Fabric Loader for Minecraft 26.3
2. Install Fabric API
3. Drop ante263-*.jar into your mods folder
