Additional Banners

by Darkhax

Additional Banners, a Darkhax adventure mod, adds banner patterns that can be crafted from common items or obtained from the wandering trader.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 onlyOpen source1.8 – 26.3

What it does

Each new pattern is made by a shapeless recipe that combines paper, shears and a stencil item. The shears are not consumed, but the crafting step costs them some durability. Some patterns cannot be crafted and appear only in the wandering trader's stock.

The patterns use familiar sources: grass block, jack o' lantern, red mushroom, kelp, any boat, snowball, shield and ink sac. Because they are ordinary banner patterns, they can be applied in a loom like vanilla ones, which lets builders decorate base interiors and exteriors with more variety.

The mod needs Bookshelf and Fabric API. The server and every player need the mod installed. It is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, and it is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 38 release versions, 1.8 – 26.3.

Key features

  1. Crafted banner patterns

    Several patterns are made with a simple material list, so no special resource is needed.

  2. Trader-only patterns

    Some patterns are not craftable and can be bought only from the wandering trader.

  3. Tool wear on crafting

    The shears keep their place in the recipe but lose durability with each craft instead of being consumed.

  4. Varied pattern themes

    Patterns cover nature, food, vehicles and gear, from grass and kelp to boats and shields.

GD CraftsEnhanced is open source under the MIT License, for 1.20 – 26.2 on all four loaders, and is needed on the server, with the client optional. MoreLeads is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only, for 1.16.3 – 1.21.1 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and runs on the server alone. Additional Banners is the only one of these that needs both sides to run.

Questions

Does Additional Banners need Bookshelf?

Yes. Bookshelf is a required dependency, and Fabric API is also required, so both must be installed with the mod.

Do the server and players both need the mod?

Yes. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

Can every pattern be crafted?

No. A few patterns are available only from the wandering trader and cannot be made at a crafting table.
