Using Not Enough Items Addons with Vintage Catalog Index

If you play with mods that rely on older recipe-viewing plugins, you can keep your existing addon setup intact while using the Vintage Catalog Index Mod interface.

How Addon Compatibility Works

Many mods use custom machines or specialized crafting mechanics that require external plugins to display their recipes. Vintage Catalog Index Mod is built to run alongside classic Not Enough Items (NEI) addons, recipe handlers, and plugins without requiring extra configuration.

Viewing Modded Handler Recipes

1. Keep your existing Not Enough Items plugins and addon mods installed in your mods folder alongside Vintage Catalog Index Mod.

2. Launch your world and open your inventory screen.

3. Search for the modded item or machine output using the search bar at the bottom.

4. Hover over the modded item and press R to view its crafting steps, or press U to view its uses.

5. The catalog will automatically pull the recipe data from your installed NEI recipe handlers and display the custom steps inside the standard Vintage Catalog Index viewer.
