CraftTweaker GUI

With CraftTweaker GUI you can easily create new recipes or edit existing ones. When you are done, you can export your recipes to CraftTweaker and they will work after a simple reload. The recipes you changed are saved, so you can always see a list of changed recipes and also edit them again. CT GUI is completely client-side and does nothing on a server.

How does it work?

To start editing a recipe, you first need to open EMI (Jei support is planned in the next version) and either click on the plus icon next to the category name, to create a new recipe, or click on the CT GUI icon next to each recipe to edit the recipe. In the editing screen, you can drag and drop items from EMI or the recipe itself into slots of the recipe. You can right-click slots to delete the item inside and scroll while hovering over them to increase or decrease the amount. On the bottom left, you can create a new Tag-Ingredient and drag it into the recipe. Some recipes also have extra options that you can configure on the side, for example shapeless when creating crafting recipes. Over the recipe itself you can change the recipe id, it will also be assigned automatically when you give the recipe an output unless you changed it before. Under the recipe you have the option to delete the original recipe you are editing, edit/replace it with the recipe you made or just create a new recipe without affecting the original one. Even when you have not exported your recipe, it will already be visible in EMI but not actually work.

Managing changed recipes

After editing a recipe or when clicking the CT button in the pause menu, you get to the changed recipes list. There you can see all changes you made and filter for the ones you have not exported yet. This is also the place to delete or edit changes you made and export them to CraftTweaker. You can also disable the edit mode and the pause menu button here or in the config. In the config, you can also disable the edit mode warning message, if it annoys you.

Tag editing is a bit special because it is not an actual recipe. Instead of the recipe id you enter the name of the tag and because Emi does not display tags with one or no items you have to create a new tag with the same name to add items to those.

There is also a good chance a bigger EMI update could break CT GUI because it uses a lot of mixins to get recipes to display right in the editing screen, so you may have to wait for an update when that happens.

One of the things that are disabled in the editing screen, is tag collapsing, so when editing the recipe for iron doors for example, you will see that it actually accepts the tag for iron ingots not just iron ingots themselves.
