Many of create’s recipes use the following resources:
*{{ItemLink|Andesite}}
**{{ItemLink|Andesite Alloy}}
*{{ItemLink|Iron Ingot|mc=yes}}
*{{ItemLink|Zinc Ingot}}
**{{ItemLink|Brass Ingot}}
*{{ItemLink|Copper|img=Copper Ingot}}
*{{ItemLink|Sheets|img1=Copper Sheet|img2=Iron Sheet|img3=Brass Sheet}}
[[Sheets]] can be made with a [[Mechanical Press]].


To get started in this mod, you will need copper, zinc, andesite and iron. They are the basic materials to get your first machine up and working. I suggest you make andesite alloys too which can be made from 2 andesite and 2 zinc nuggets. Now, the first thing you will want to craft is water wheels. They require a water source on top of them that are flowing towards the front.
The first of these materials that the player will obtain will likely be Iron, followed by Andesite Alloy. Copper and Zinc will come later, but Brass will not be made until access to the Nether is granted.

==Power Generation==
 
Create uses [[Rotational Force]], which is used to power various [[:Category:Mechanical Components|kinetic appliances]] such as the [[Mechanical Press]], [[Mechanical Mixer]], and multiple [[Contraption]] anchors. Rotational Force can be generated by [[:Category:Generators|Generators]] such as:
 
*{{ItemLink|Hand Crank}}
Now, after that you will need cogs and shafts. Cogs can be made by surrounding an Andesite alloy with 8 wood buttons. A shaft can be made from 2 andesite alloys on top of each other in the crafting grid. Once you have these, you will want to make a Mechanical Press. After that, a world of possibilities are open for you. Once you go to the nether though, you will want to gather some blaze rods.

*{{ItemLink|Water Wheel}}, [[Large Water Wheel]]
Then you can make Brass with it. Brass is mainly used in conveyors, item transporting etc.  
**A simple generator that can be pushed by a flowing liquid.
 
*{{ItemLink|Windmill Bearing}}
== Tips and tricks ==
**A stronger generator that requires 8 [[Sail]] type blocks to function. Add more sails to make it stronger.
Once you have made an encased fan, I suggest you break down the ores in a mill and wash them with an encased fan with a water source in front of it. This will help you gather atleast 10 nuggets with and additional chance of 5 extra. Dont worry if you smelted all your ores already though. the ores are pretty common.
*{{ItemLink|Steam Engine}}
 
**A generator that uses water as fuel.
 
==[[Contraption]]s==
Wheat is a really good food. You'll want to put wheat in a mill and wash it in the machines you made earlier.
[[Contraption]]s are moving structures made of blocks that can be used to serve a variety of purposes. Use [[Linear Chassis]], [[Radial Chassis]], [[Super Glue]], {{MC|Slime Block}}s, or {{MC|Honey Block}}s to attach structures to Contraption anchors such as:
 
*{{ItemLink|Mechanical Piston}}
 
*{{ItemLink|Cart Assembler}}
Gearboxes are pretty handy. They can help you convert horizontal rotational force into vertical and vice versa.
*{{ItemLink|Gantry Carriage}}
*{{ItemLink|Mechanical Bearing}}

Crafting[edit | edit source]

Many of create’s recipes use the following resources:

Sheets can be made with a Mechanical Press.

The first of these materials that the player will obtain will likely be Iron, followed by Andesite Alloy. Copper and Zinc will come later, but Brass will not be made until access to the Nether is granted.

Power Generation[edit | edit source]

Create uses Rotational Force, which is used to power various kinetic appliances such as the Mechanical Press, Mechanical Mixer, and multiple Contraption anchors. Rotational Force can be generated by Generators such as:

Contraptions[edit | edit source]

Contraptions are moving structures made of blocks that can be used to serve a variety of purposes. Use Linear Chassis, Radial Chassis, Super Glue, Slime Blocks, or Honey Blocks to attach structures to Contraption anchors such as:
