Datapack Introduction: Three Useless Stone Transformer

Overview

Three Useless Stone Transformer is a Minecraft datapack designed to enhance the utility of stone-type items (such as andesite, diorite, granite, and cobblestone) in the game. This datapack provides new crafting recipes through the crafting table and stonecutter, allowing these "useless" stones to be transformed into more valuable building materials or functional blocks.

Core Features

1. Stonecutter Conversion (Basic Transformation)

In the stonecutter, players can convert the following stone-type items interchangeably for quick access to desired building materials:

• Andesite ⇄ Diorite ⇄ Granite
  • 1 of one type → 1 of another type (e.g., 1 andesite → 1 diorite).
  • Allows cyclic conversion for easy color scheme adjustments in builds.

2. Advanced Crafting Table Conversion

In the crafting table, players can combine cobblestone and gravel to craft andesite:

• Provides new building color options.

Compatibility

• Works with Minecraft 1.20.1.
• Compatible with most vanilla and modded datapacks without overriding existing recipes.

Installation & Usage

1. Download the datapack and place it in the world's datapacks folder.
2. Reload the world (/reload).
3. Try the new recipes in the crafting table or stonecutter!

Conclusion

This datapack makes previously underutilized stone blocks (andesite, diorite, granite) more practical by offering quick conversion and efficient material synthesis, perfect for builders and survival mode players to optimize resource management.

Ideal for:

• Building enthusiasts (quick access to decorative stone variants).
• Survival players (reduces time spent searching for specific stones).
• Datapack developers (can be integrated as a module into larger resource packs).
