Built
by thetruly
Built adds vanilla-style building blocks for players who want more materials when constructing houses and other structures in a 1.20.1 world.
What it does
The blocks are styled after vanilla ones, so new walls, trims and decorative pieces sit alongside the standard palette. Some blocks drop when mined only with custom tools, which the mod supplies, and the author notes that other mods such as Tools Hammers and Quark are the reference for that tool approach. A pickarang, a throwable tool, is included as a side addition because of limitations in the tooling used to build the mod.
Only the server needs it, and players join without installing anything. Files are published for Fabric and Forge, both for 1.20.1, with version 1.2.0 dated 2024-06-07 as the latest build for each loader. The first release was on 2024-03-05. The mod is released under All rights reserved. The author asks that modpacks which include it add credits.

Use cases
Home construction
Players building houses in a 1.20.1 world can mix the new blocks with vanilla materials for varied facades and interiors.
Modpacks
Modpack makers can include the mod on a server, and the author asks that they add credits when they do.
Who it’s for: Players and server owners on Fabric or Forge 1.20.1 who want additional vanilla-style blocks for building. Because the mod runs on the server alone, it suits servers that want the extra blocks without requiring clients to install anything.
How it compares
Fastbuild is server-side only, published for Forge 1.20.4 under All rights reserved, so it targets a different version than Built. Downsta's Building Utilities is client and server, covers Fabric and Forge for 1.20.1 and is under the MIT License, so players need it installed too. NiceMod - New blocks is open source under the MIT License, runs on client and server for Fabric 1.18.1 – 1.21.1, and adds new blocks with a wider version range.
