NEI and recipe lookup ​

Index · Previous: Recipes, quests and progression · Next: The Vending Machine


Not Enough Items is how you look anything up in this pack, and it had 112 changes this release without a single announcement between them: bookmarks, recipe handlers, search and the item panel.

New features and content ​

You can now mark a recipe or item as a favourite so NEI opens it first, and share a recipe (or a whole bookmark group with all its settings) as a chat link. Search has new item name aliases and filter syntax tooltips to help you find what you need faster. Recipe displays gained horizontal scrolling, custom rendering options, and improved badges to show recipe details at a glance. The item history panel can now persist between sessions, and NEI's overlays (recipe transfer, chunk grid and mob spawn) all got fixes and new options.

Changes ​

NEI and its add-ons picked up a run of compatibility updates for GT New Horizons changes: the new NAND Chip Array location, removed recipe maps, and AE2's new stack types. UI polish includes adjusted bookmark panel width, transparency borders on recipe backgrounds, and localization improvements.

Performance ​

A round of optimization work across NEI's GUI handling cuts CPU time and allocations while any inventory screen is open. World loading, enum caching, and item update systems all received improvements to reduce CPU and RAM usage. The recipe dumper tool is now much faster when generating reference data.

Fixes ​

Fixed crashes during recipe searches, autocrafting loops, and various bookmark edge cases with permutations and multipliers. Tooltips, keybindings, and item translation now work correctly. Spawner placement logic and GL rendering state were corrected to prevent issues in complex scenarios.
