Aesthetic Ladders
by Almiris
Aesthetic Ladders gives builders a set of ladders in many wood types and stones, so vertical routes can match the rest of a build.
What it does
Vanilla ladders come in one style, and the mod replaces that single option with a range of variants. Custom woods from the Arboreal, Nature and Wild Fields mods are supported too, including Fir, Juniper, Hazelnut, Tamarisk and Cedar, and the stone ladders cover the main vanilla stones and the Wild Fields Stone Ladders variants.
The recipes follow vanilla crafting patterns, so ladders fit into survival progression without a separate system. Creative inventory sorting and modded build tools handle the new blocks like the vanilla ones. Wild Fields is optional and adds its own wood variants when present. Fabric API is required on every loader.
The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across five game versions, 1.18.2 – 1.21.1, and the latest builds are for 1.21.1.
Key features
Ladders for each wood type
Every supported wood type gets a ladder that matches the planks and logs it is crafted from.
Custom ladder models and textures
Models and textures are tailored to each wood, so the ladders look consistent with the blocks around them.
Stone ladder variants
The main vanilla stones and Wild Fields Stone Ladders have matching ladder blocks for stone-built areas.
Vanilla-style crafting
Recipes use the same patterns as the vanilla ladder, so players craft them with materials they already gather.
