Vanilla+ | A Minecraft Data Pack for 1.21.3 - 1.21.4

HEY! Check out my new expansion to Vanilla+ below!

It makes it non-functional for Realms, but in doing so adds structures and loot featuring custom items! Check it out here!

This data pack includes over 100 items that can be crafted or found! In my opinion, the best part about this is that it can be used on Minecraft Realms, unlike some more complex data packs. Be sure to include this whenever you and your friends start a new Realm! Oh, and don't forget to download the REQUIRED RESOURCE PACK as well. Here's a list of all features below:

• Custom Armor: 9 sets of Armor that can be crafted using Copper, Lapis Lazuli, Resin, Redstone, Quartz, Emerald, Amethyst, and Nether Stars. Copper and Lapis are on the level of Iron, Quartz is on the level of Chainmail, Redstone and Resin are on the level of Gold, Emerald is on the level of Diamond, and Amethyst is on the level of Netherite (Amethyst requires Netherite Ingots in its crafting recipes as well)! Nether Star Armor is built in a Smithing Table using either Netherite or Amethyst gear. You need a Nether Star and a Wither Skull to transform the item. There is also a full set of Turtle Armor that has special buffs for underwater maneuvering!
• Custom Tools: 8 new toolsets that each correspond to 8 of the new Armor sets! Quartz's tools are on the level of iron, since Chainmail does not have a toolset, and Amethyst tools still require a Netherite Ingot in each recipe like the Armor. Nether Star tools are crafted the same way as Nether Star Armor.
• Custom Food: Both simple and complex dishes that can be crafted for a wider variety of food! As of the Version 6.0 Update, there are now 4 Scrolls scattered across the world that unlock recipes for you! The Average Scroll can be found as part of Buried Treasure, the Sweet Scroll can be found in a Pillager Outpost, the Drinks Scroll can be found in small Underwater Ruins, and the Strong Scroll can be found in Woodland Mansions.
• Dyeable Books: 36 different color options for Book and Quills! These are ideal for multiplayer and having different colored diaries for each player. You can also try collecting them all!
• Dyeable Elytra: Following the same style as the Dyeable Books, Dyeable Elytra have 35 color options in addition to a "wings" option, crafted using a feather! However, I would recommend having extra Mending and Unbreaking books ready to put on the Elytra if you're dyeing an existing set, I couldn't figure out how to keep enchantments when dyeing them.
• More Dyeable Bundles: Although Vanilla Minecraft has bundles in the 16 default colors, I've added the 20 extra colors seen in other dyeable items to the bundle as well!
• Hats: As of the Version 11.0 update, there are now 36 hats in the game! 35 of them are different colored beanies, while the 36th is a Santa hat made just for the holidays!
• Locked Blocks: Locked Chests and Locked Barrels can now be crafted using a Chest/Barrel and Iron Bars! They can only be opened by using Keys, which generate in Stronghold libraries. Small Keys can be used to open the normal Locked Blocks, while there are 2 other Locked Block variants that can only be opened by using Big Keys.
• Mushrooms: Mushroom items from the Super Mario Bros. series! The Mega Mushroom makes you 5 blocks tall, the Super Mushroom makes you 3 blocks tall, the Poison Mushroom makes you 1 block tall, and the Mini Mushroom makes you about .2 blocks tall. As of Version 7.0, these are no longer craftable and are now found in normal Vaults in the Trial Chambers.
• Ocarinas and Heart Containers: Ocarinas are unique items from The Legend of Zelda series, found only when opening an Ominous Vault in a Trial Chamber. One plays the "Song of Storms," which summons a thunderstorm that lasts 5 minutes; it has a cooldown of 10 minutes. The other plays the "Sun's Song," which can reset the time of day to the morning; this one has a cooldown of 20 minutes. Heart Containers permanently* upgrade your max health by 1 whole heart! They can only be found upon killing either the Wither or the Ender Dragon, but even then there is a small chance that it is not dropped. (*Due to a technical issue, you lose your extra hearts on death. However, upon consuming another Heart Container, it replenishes all lost hearts while additionally adding 1 extra.)
• Medallions: these are used to unlock the recipes for each Gear set. The Copper Medallion is found in Dungeons, the Lapis Medallion is found in Shipwrecks, the Redstone Medallion is found in Mineshafts, the Resin Medallion is in Desert Temples, the Quartz Medallion is in the Nether Fortress, the Emerald Medallion is in Trial Chamber Pots, and the Amethyst Medallion is found in Treasure Bastions. (These are found in Version 7.0 and above)
• Advancements: there are many new custom advancements; while most have to do with unlocking various crafting recipes, there are a few that are from the Achievement system of the old versions of Minecraft! While some have been adjusted, most are exactly how they were when they were removed.

There is also a mod version of this project! It still has all the limitations of the data pack, but if you'd rather not have to download the resource pack or install the data pack on worlds individually, then maybe the mod is right for you!
