Blocks for Builders

Blocks for Builders

This is a small mod aiming to fit in with Vanilla as seamlessly as possible, adding blocks and content for building-focused players.

Content:

The mod adds the following:

• Ten new wood types

  • Willow (pale teal)

  • Palm (cream)

  • Maple (pale pink-ish brown)

  • Beech (pale orange)

  • Pine (dark brown)

  • Cedar (yellow-y brown)

  • Ghostwood (light grey)

  • Scorchwood (black)

  • Green Jungle (dark green)

  • Green Bamboo (using Vanilla's Block of Bamboo)

• Coconuts

  • These act as the Saplings for Palm Trees but can also be used to craft brown Coconut Thatch blocks, which also have Stairs and Slab variants

• Two additional new trees

  • Yellow Birch, with bright yellow leaves

• The Autumnal Forest biome (where Maple, Beech, and Yellow Birch can be found)

Add-Ons:

• If you're used to bushier leaves (like the ones in the featured image in the gallery), or would like to try them, you can find a texture pack that will make all Vanilla and BFB leaves bushier here.
• If (like I was) you were used to Vanilla Tweaks' retexturing of the Nether Woods, you can find a texture pack to make BFB's bookshelves fit with them here.
• If (like I am) you're used to Vanilla Tweaks' crafting tweaks, you can find a datapack doing the equivalent for BFB recipes here.
• Older versions of BFB had a Paper Lantern, which was removed as of v3.1.0. If you want it back, you can find it here.
• If you were fond of the original Ghostwood textures, or simply prefer them to Pale Oak, you can find a pack to change Pale Oak plank textures to Ghostwood here.

Shaders used in gallery images are Complementary Reimagined.

Compatibilities:

• ModernFix (and specifically its optional Dynamic Resource functionality) is currently known to cause issues in other mods, including Blocks for Builders, when installed server-side, so if you want to run BFB, make sure you're not running ModernFix on a server.
