Decade of Digging

Decade of Digging restores content that Minecraft once had and later removed, so older blocks, items and mobs can be placed and used again in a 1.18.2 world. The author text describes the content as drawn from different eras of the game, including early fish, the Nether Reactor Core and an older Stonecutter. Several items are modeled on the behavior they had before later updates, and some of them are reskins of current Java Edition blocks.

The mod is a Forge mod for 1.18.2 only, with a single file, 1.0.3, dated 2024-01-26. Installation covers the server and each player's game. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license, which makes it not open source. A conflict is noted with a gamerule that controls spawning, so server owners should check that setting when adding it to a world.

The author notes that the work is still in progress, that a Fabric port is not planned, and that the content draws on Bedrock Edition and Education Edition history. The description also credits the Minecraft community and names SoniCraft as the creator of a related project.
