BetterBlockZ: DecorZ
by riciJak
BetterBlockZ: DecorZ, a NeoForge decoration addon, adds custom-modeled lamps, lights and lanterns that can be placed on floors, ceilings and walls.
What it does
The addon adds decorative light fixtures with custom models, including Cut Panel, Flat Lamp, Hexagon Lamp, Quad Lantern and a block that occupies a single space while standing six units high. Placed blocks are full-bright, so they light their surroundings without needing a separate light source. The blocks are built for modular building, letting builders line them up side by side to create continuous light layouts.
BetterBlockZ: DecorZ requires BetterBlockZ, which supplies the custom-modeled decorative blocks the addon is built on, and Z-Core. Both must be installed for the addon to load. Because it runs on the client and the server, the server and every player need the mod. The addon is published for NeoForge only, for Minecraft 26.1.2 and no other version, and the code is not open source; it is released as All rights reserved. The author notes that more blocks are planned for future updates.
Key features
Cut Panel and lamp blocks
Cut Panel, Flat Lamp, Hexagon Lamp and Quad Lantern are the decorative fixtures available from the addon.
Full-bright light fixtures
Each fixture emits full brightness, so it can serve as the main light in a room or as an accent.
Placement on any surface
Blocks can go on the floor, the ceiling or any of four walls, and players can place them side by side.
Separate connection network
Sneak-placing starts a separate connection network, so adjacent fixtures do not join automatically.
Single-space tall block
The six-unit-high block takes up only one block of space on the grid.
