What it does

Bamboo is plain decoration in vanilla, and the mod turns it into a crafting material. Recipes produce armor, tools and additional blocks, so bamboo gathered in a survival world has something to build with. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Builds exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, for the game versions 1.20.1 and 1.21.8, with v1.1.2 as the latest file for each loader. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Bamboo armor

    Armor pieces are crafted from bamboo, giving players a use for the plant in combat-ready gear.

  2. Bamboo tools

    Tools are made from bamboo as well, adding an early-game option that the vanilla plant does not offer.

  3. More bamboo blocks

    Additional blocks built from bamboo extend the building palette beyond the vanilla variants.
