Troubleshoot Crafting Problems

Recipe Not Working

If the bedrock block doesn't appear in your crafting table output:

• Verify material types – Ensure you're using lava buckets and water buckets (not just empty buckets), actual obsidian blocks, and a genuine Netherite ingot
• Check recipe layout – The arrangement of items in the crafting grid must match the exact pattern. Review the mod's recipe image carefully
• Confirm mod installation – Verify the mod is properly installed and active in your world

Missing Materials

If you can't find specific items:

• No lava/water – Explore further or create artificial sources by pouring buckets
• Obsidian scarce – Mine near lava lakes or create obsidian deliberately by controlled lava-water interactions
• Netherite hard to find – Netherite requires significant Nether exploration; consider strip-mining or using Fortune tools on ancient debris

Bucket Issues

Empty buckets are returned after crafting. If you don't see them, check your inventory space—full inventories drop items on the ground.
