Beyond & More — Version 4.0.10

Minecraft 26.1.2 | NeoForge • Forge • Fabric

Version 4.0.10 expands building customization, adds useful crafting and recycling options, improves language support, and fixes many block textures and models. This release also brings the latest Beyond & More features and fixes to Minecraft 26.1.2 across all three mod loaders.

New Features

Survival Debug Stick

• Added a Survival Debug Stick, obtainable with a 1% chance from Nether Bastion Treasure chests.
• The stick has 128 uses, can be recharged with a Netherite Ingot, and remains in your inventory when depleted.
• Right-click to change a selected supported block-state property. Sneak + right-click to select a different property.
• Change supported facing directions, axes, texture orientations, and vertical-slab states.
• Remove water from waterlogged blocks without allowing water to be added.
• Gameplay-related properties, such as redstone power, open/closed states, age, and levels, remain protected.
• The stick is now correctly available in the Beyond & More Weapons & Tools creative tab.

More Flexible Vertical Slabs

• Added adjustable texture orientation for 28 vertical-slab families, including logs, stripped logs, Pale Oak, stripped Pale Oak, bamboo, bone blocks, polished basalt, quartz pillars, and purpur pillars.
• Use the Survival Debug Stick to move end-grain textures between the top/bottom and front/back faces.
• Supports both single and double vertical slabs, as well as horizontal facing directions.
• Hay Bale Vertical Slabs now support the same two-way texture-orientation feature.
• Magenta Glazed Terracotta Vertical Slabs now support four arrow rotations with the Survival Debug Stick: up → right → down → left. These orientations are also supported for double slabs.

Blocks

• Added the Cyan Concrete Powder Slab, completing the concrete-powder slab color family.
• Improved compatibility and model consistency for building variants throughout the mod.

Crafting Recipes & Balancing

• Added Cobbled Deepslate and Blackstone crafting alternatives for Levers, Pistons, Dispensers, Droppers, and Observers.
• Added Blackstone and Cobbled Deepslate alternatives for Repeaters and Comparators. Existing vanilla recipes are preserved.
• Added 1 Wool → 2 String, 9 String → 1 Cobweb, 1 Sandstone → 4 Sand, and 1 Red Sandstone → 4 Red Sand.
• Added reverse glass crafting: 8 Glass Panes → 3 Glass Blocks, including all 16 stained-glass colors.
• Added reverse crafting for 156 framed-glass pane variants, preserving their colors and frame materials.
• Added 1 Bricks Block → 4 Bricks and 1 Nether Bricks Block → 4 Nether Bricks.
• Added Paper from Bamboo and Leather from Rotten Flesh.
• Standardized stair recipes to 6 Blocks → 6 Stairs and wooden trapdoors to 6 Planks → 6 Trapdoors.
• Added a Composter recipe using 6 Wooden Slabs and balanced reverse stair recipes to prevent material duplication.
• Added 147 missing Beyond & More stonecutter conversions: 140 slab outputs and 7 stair outputs, using 1 Block → 2 Slabs or 1 Block → 1 Stair.
• Restored two missing crafting conversions involving Quartz and Purpur Pillar vertical slabs.

Tool Recycling

• Added durability-based recycling that returns part of an item's crafting material:
  • Pickaxes / Axes: 3 materials when unused, 2 with at least 50% durability remaining, otherwise 1.
  • Swords / Hoes: 2 materials when unused, otherwise 1.
  • Shovels: 1 material.
• Supports Wood, Stone, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Beyond & More Steel, and Copper tools on Minecraft 26.1.2. Netherite tools remain excluded.
• Recycle two different tools made of the same material together, or 3–9 same-material tools of mixed types in one crafting grid.
• Material recovery is calculated separately from each tool's remaining durability.
• Preserves vanilla repair when combining two identical tools and prevents recycling mixed materials.

Mods Menu & Translations

• Added a unified Mods screen across NeoForge, Forge, and Fabric, with mod search, versions, authors, descriptions, licenses, websites, and available metadata.
• Improved resizable panels, scrolling, translation coverage indicators, and text wrapping for long descriptions.
• Fixed duplicate Mods buttons and improved their positioning, including placement alongside Minecraft Realms where appropriate.
• Added manual JSON language import and export through a managed resource pack, without modifying the original mod JAR.
• Added support for 320 languages and regional variants: 143 Mojang-supported locales plus 177 additional locales.
• Improved translation alignment between Minecraft, Beyond & More, and the three mod loaders, including placeholder handling and language-code corrections.
• The experimental automatic translation feature remains disabled and hidden in this release. Manual import and export remain available.

Visual Fixes & Bug Fixes

• Fixed Grass Block Slabs: half-height sides now use the correct section of the vanilla texture instead of compressing the entire 16-pixel texture.
• Fixed Grass Block Vertical Slabs: narrow faces now use properly cropped 8-pixel sections.
• Corrected UV mapping on Grass Block Stairs, Fences, Fence Gates, Walls, Buttons, and Pressure Plates.
• Restored the correct green grass tint in inventory icons for grass-block building variants.
• Corrected Chiseled Sandstone and Chiseled Red Sandstone variants: decorative patterns now appear on the front and side faces, with the appropriate plain top textures.
• Fixed Chiseled Sandstone Trapdoors in both colors so the decorative pattern appears on their broad surface.
• Corrected side/top textures for Cut Sandstone and Cut Red Sandstone Stairs.
• Fixed texture orientations for logs, bone blocks, hay bales, quartz/purpur pillars, and other orientable vertical slabs.
• Improved cross-loader consistency for block models, item rendering, and the custom Mods interface.
