Camouflage Blocks
by SayNooty
Camouflage Blocks lets players craft blocks that copy the textures of vanilla blocks, so a hidden door, trap or secret passage can look like the wall around it.
What it does
Camouflage blocks are built from a model with a vanilla texture overlay, so each one takes on the look of the block it masks and blends with nearby vanilla textures. The mod covers the common shapes needed for concealment, including vertical slabs, fence gates, pressure plates and lightning rods, and crafting recipes are included for each. Other blocks follow the same method, replacing the material of a block with a masked version.
The mod was first conceived as a creative addition and is available in survival, so players who want a hidden door or invisible trap can build it with ordinary materials. It is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Camouflage Blocks runs on the client and the server, so both need it. Files cover 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.4, 1.21.5, 1.21.7, 26.1.2 and 26.2, with 1.0-beta-1 for 26.2 as the latest Fabric and NeoForge build and 1.5.0-alpha for 1.20.1 as the latest Forge build.
Key features
Texture-matched camouflage
Masked blocks use a vanilla texture overlay, so they blend with the surrounding vanilla blocks.
Concealment shapes
Camouflaged versions are available for common concealment shapes such as slabs, fence gates, pressure plates and lightning rods.
Crafting recipes
Each camouflaged block has a crafting recipe, so it can be made in survival without commands.
Replaceable materials
Other blocks follow the same method, so a material can be swapped for a masked version of another block.
