Fixed crafting recipes for Vanilla Lectern, Bookshelf, and Nether Brick Blocks accidentally being disabled
-
Made Grimstone Tiles placement more intuitive
The pattern will now always come towards you when placed facing any direction, as opposed to towards you when placed vertically and away from you when placed horizontally.
-
Changed Ghostwood Planks textures to light grey
With Mojang adding Pale Oak, having two white wood sets seemed redundant. It's only the planks that have changed though - Ghostwood Stripped Logs were basically grey to begin with, and I kept the doors and trapdoors as they were since they're nice designs and definitely distinct from their Pale Oak counterparts.
-
Added Grimstone
Crafted with Cobbled Deepslate and Gunpowder (as a reference to their original names), this is a sort of pale red/purple blockset that has all the same variants as deepslate. Good for seasonal spooky builds!
-
Added Bamboo Thatch and Bamboo Mosaic Rugs
People do this in real life, so now you can do it in Minecraft! Thatch comes in block, stair, slab and rug variants, and I gave a rug variant to the Mosaic as well.
-
Pumpkin Pies are now placeable
One last fun bit of autumn content; they work just like cakes!
-
Achievement changes
Added one for crafting Grimstone, fixed Fall Guy triggering without hitting the ground, and changed the Green Jungle Sapling-related achievements to be more centric to the actual item.
-
Fixed Chiseled Red Nether Bricks texture
The Magma Cube is properly centred now!
-
Fixed Willow, Green Jungle, and Green Bamboo Trapdoors not being orientable
-
Added the Willow wood type (trees found on rivers)
A full new wood type and associated tree; a pale/pastel-y teal that pairs well with Prismarine or white block palettes.
-
Added Green Bamboo wood type
Bamboo wood is great but the initial Block of Bamboo is a really nice texture too, so now it has all the wood blocks!
-
Added the Autumnal Forest biome
Red Oak and Gold Acacia were nice but I really wanted to round out the Autumn colours, and rather than continuing to spawn them rarely in random biomes it seemed fitting to give them their own biome. It also serves as a nice showcase of Fallen Leaves. The end result looks pretty striking and will hopefully be a fun destination to adventure to in search of the new trees.
-
Added Orange Oak and Yellow Birch trees, found in the Autumnal Forest
-
Moved Red Oak trees to the Autumnal Forest
-
Added Hay Stairs and Slabs
Nice for thatched roofs. Fun fact, not a single vanilla slab is directional, so these are unique in that way.
-
Added Quartz Wall, Smooth Quartz Wall, and Quartz Brick Wall, Stairs, and Slabs
More parity stuff in the vein of the Nether Bricks. The slabs use the directional model from Hay Slabs though, so you can finally make floors out of Quartz Bricks and have them actually face the way you want.
-
Added Advancements
These are in part just a nice addition to the mod but also serve as a soft guide/tutorial to remind you what's in the mod and where some key items can be found. They were ton of fun to come up with so I hope you enjoy!
-
Removed Paper Lanterns
This was a tough decision but ultimately the Paper Lanterns just didn't feel Vanilla enough to fit in with the rest of the mod, so I took them out and now they're their own mod which you can get here.
I did two major things behind the scenes for this update (and the update to 1.21). Firstly, I basically rewrote the whole mod from scratch so all the code is now way cleaner, more streamlined, and easier to work with, which should make adding new stuff much faster. Second, I really doubled down on Vanilla parity - things like crafting recipe groups, proper tagging, I've gone through it all with a fine-toothed comb to make sure the mod slots into Vanilla as seamlessly as possible. The goal is that if you're playing on Survival, it should be impossible to tell what's modded outside of the Advancements screen.
Also it looks like literally the day I'm uploading this, Mojang are going to drop white wood of their own (second time this has happened lol) so if/when they do, expect Ghostwood to change to grey instead (the doors will likely remain unchanged though, unless Mojang's equivalents are screen doors as well).
