Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat
If you have ever run Apotheosis and Easy Magic side by side, you already know the frustration. Apotheosis swaps the vanilla enchanting table for its own block, and Easy Magic builds its features on top of the vanilla one. The result? Your item slot, reroll button, and enchantment previews simply vanish. Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat is the small bridge mod that makes both mods play nicely together, and once you try it, you will never want to enchant without it again.
What Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat Actually Does
This add-on exists for one reason: to restore Easy Magic's quality-of-life features inside the Apotheosis enchanting screen. Instead of patching Apotheosis or rewriting Easy Magic, it targets the exact points where the two mods conflict and reconnects them. The result feels like the two mods were designed together from the start.
Item Stays in the Table
Close the enchanting GUI and your item remains in the table. Open it again and it is exactly where you left it. No more pulling your gear out, reopening the interface, and placing it back every single time you want to check your options. For players who enchant in short bursts between mining trips, this alone is worth the install.
Item Rendered Above the Table
While an item is stored, it floats above the enchanting table with a gentle bobbing animation, just like Easy Magic does with the vanilla block. It is a small visual touch, but it makes your enchanting setup feel alive and tells you at a glance that something is waiting inside.
Reroll Button and Book Animation
Easy Magic's reroll button appears inside the Apotheosis enchanting screen. Click it to randomize the enchantment options, spending lapis and XP according to your config. The enchanting table book also opens and closes correctly as you approach and walk away, so the whole block behaves the way you expect.
Safe to Break
Breaking the table while an item is stored drops the item on the ground so nothing is lost. No hidden inventory, no vanished gear, no surprises.
Requirements and Supported Versions
Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat for Minecraft is built for Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge 47.x. You will need Apotheosis 7.x with the enchanting module enabled in its config, plus Easy Magic 8.x. There are no known incompatibilities, so it slots cleanly into most modpacks already running that pair.
If you would rather skip manual file juggling, the foxygame.net launcher offers Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat directly in its add-on catalog, letting you add it to a compatible 1.20.1 Forge profile in a couple of clicks.
Configuration Options
A config file is generated at config/easyapothcompat-common.toml on first launch. The defaults are sensible, but you can tune the reroll economy to match your pack:
- reroll.enableReroll (default: true) — show or hide the reroll button.
- reroll.lapisCost (default: 1) — lapis per reroll; set to 0 for free rerolls.
- reroll.xpCost (default: 0) — XP levels per reroll; set to 0 for free rerolls.
On a casual server, free rerolls keep enchanting fun. On a progression-focused pack, charging lapis and XP keeps the mechanic balanced against other enchantment sources.
How to Install
Getting set up is straightforward. First, confirm you are running Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.x. Next, drop Apotheosis 7.x, Easy Magic 8.x, and Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat into your mods folder, then make sure the enchanting module is enabled in the Apotheosis config. Launch the game once to generate the compat config, tweak it if you like, and start enchanting.
When you download Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat, always grab the build that matches your exact Minecraft and Forge versions. Mismatched builds are the most common cause of crashes, and this mod is no exception.
Final Thoughts
Easy Magic + Apotheosis Compat is one of those tiny mods that quietly fixes a problem you did not realize was ruining your flow. It restores stored items, rerolling, previews, and animations inside the Apotheosis table without touching either parent mod. If you run Apotheosis and Easy Magic together on 1.20.1 Forge, this compat layer belongs in your load order. Install it once, and enchanting finally feels whole again.
