More Mounted Storages
If you have ever built a massive moving machine in Create and wished your fancy modded chests could ride along, More Mounted Storages is the add-on you have been waiting for. This clever mod expands the range of storage blocks that can be mounted onto Create's moving contraptions, letting you bring Ender Chests, Storage Drawers, Iron Chests, and many more along for the ride. Whether you are hauling resources across a sprawling factory or building a mobile mining rig, this add-on makes your contraptions far more practical.
What More Mounted Storages Does
By default, Create only allows a limited set of vanilla storage blocks to be attached to moving contraptions. More Mounted Storages breaks that limitation by adding compatibility for a wide variety of popular storage mods. The mod also provides an API, which means other mod developers can add support for their own storage types in the future.
At the moment, only item storage is supported. Fluid storage support will not arrive until Create introduces a proper API for handling fluids on contraptions, so do not expect liquid tanks to work just yet.
Supported Mods and Storage Types
The list of supported storage blocks is impressively broad. Here is what you can currently mount on your contraptions:
- Ender Storage: Ender Chest
- Iron Chests: all chest types
- Storage Drawers: normal and compacting variants
- Framed Compacting Drawers: same variants as above
- More Storage Drawers: same variants as above (since v1.3.0)
- Immersive Engineering: Crates
- Industrial Foregoing: Black Hole Unit and Black Hole Controller (items only)
- PneumaticCraft: Repressurized: Smart Chest fix, requiring PnC v1.16.5-2.14.6-277 or above
- Expanded Storage: all chests and barrel types (since v0.0.2)
- Trash Cans: Trash Can and Ultimate Trash Can (since v1.1.0)
- EnderChests: Ender Chest (since v1.1.0)
- DimStorage: Dimensional Chest (since v1.2.0)
Individual mods or specific storage types can be disabled in the configuration file, giving you full control over what appears on your contraptions.
Priority System Explained
Since version 1.1.0, More Mounted Storages introduced a priority system that determines the order in which items are inserted into and retrieved from mounted storages. By default, the order works like this:
- Trash Can with whitelist filtering mode
- Storage Drawers and Black Hole Units
- Ender and Dimensional chests
- All other chests, barrels, crates, and similar blocks
- Trash Can with blacklist filtering mode
These priorities can be adjusted in the configuration file, so you can fine-tune how your automated systems route items.
Minecraft Versions and Mod Loaders
More Mounted Storages is built for Minecraft 1.16.5 and runs on the Forge mod loader. Versions for 1.18 and beyond are available through the official Create Mounted Storages project page. The mod is currently in a beta state, so some issues may arise during use. If you run into problems, reporting them through the developer's GitHub issue tracker is the best way to get them resolved.
If you want a hassle-free way to get started, the foxygame.net launcher offers a curated add-on catalog where More Mounted Storages for Minecraft can be added to your instance with a single click, and it keeps every mod updated automatically so you never miss a compatibility fix.
How to Install More Mounted Storages
Getting this add-on running is straightforward. First, make sure you have the correct version of Minecraft Forge installed for your game version. Next, confirm that Create and any storage mods you want to use are already present in your mods folder. Then download More Mounted Storages from its official CurseForge page or GitHub releases page and drop the jar file into your mods folder. Launch the game, and your modded storages should now be mountable on contraptions.
Remember that the mod's distribution policy allows use in modpacks, but re-uploading it to other websites is not permitted. Always source it from the official pages.
Final Thoughts
More Mounted Storages fills a very specific gap in the Create experience, and it does so with impressive attention to detail. The priority system, broad mod compatibility, and developer API make it a valuable addition for anyone who builds serious moving machines. Despite its beta status, it is stable enough for everyday play and continues to grow with each update. If your contraptions deserve better storage, this add-on is well worth adding to your setup.
