Farmer’s Delight Cutting Compat Data Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start using the cutting board with items from other mods?
Place a cutting board block in your world, then hold an item from a compatible mod and right-click the board to place it on top. Equip a kitchen knife and click the item to cut it into new pieces.
Which mod items can actually be cut on the cutting board?
Check the data pack's recipe list for your specific mods—not every item from compatible mods is cuttable, only those with defined cutting recipes. If an item doesn't work, it likely doesn't have a recipe added yet.
Do I need a specific type of knife or does any knife work?
The kitchen knife from Farmer's Delight is the standard tool for cutting board recipes. Other knives may work depending on the data pack configuration, but the kitchen knife is always compatible.
Can I cut items from multiple mods at the same time on one cutting board?
You can only cut one item at a time on a single cutting board, but you can place multiple cutting boards in your kitchen to process different mod items simultaneously.
What happens if I have a mod installed but it's not on the compatible list?
Items from unlisted mods won't have cutting recipes in this data pack. You can request compatibility or check if another community member has created additional recipes for that mod.
Does this data pack work with modpacks or only single mods?
The data pack works with any combination of the compatible mods—it automatically detects which mods are active and enables their cutting recipes accordingly.
Can I use the cutting board recipes in my cooking workflow or are they separate?
The cut items integrate fully into Farmer's Delight's cooking system, so you can use cutting board outputs as ingredients in stoves, skillets, and other cooking blocks.
Do I lose durability on my knife when cutting items from other mods?
Yes, the kitchen knife loses durability with each cut, just like normal Farmer's Delight cutting board recipes do.
What should I do if a cutting recipe isn't working even though I have the mod installed?
Make sure the data pack is loaded and active in your world—check your data pack list in world settings. If it's active, verify the item actually has a recipe by checking the mod's documentation or recipe viewer.
Can I add my own cutting recipes to this data pack?
Yes, you can create custom cutting recipes by adding new recipe files to the data pack following Farmer's Delight's recipe format, though this requires understanding data pack structure.
