Emerald and Things
by sol_cheio
Emerald and Things adds emerald versions of tools and other items, plus a few items that can only be crafted through the mod, for Forge on 1.16.5.
What it does
Emerald and Things adds emerald tools such as a pickaxe, sword and axe, along with other variable items that take the place of vanilla equivalents. Some of the new items can only be crafted with this mod installed, so their recipes do not exist in an unmodded game. Curios API is required, and servers and clients both need the mod. Builds are on Forge for 1.16.5 under the MIT License, and the code is not open source.
Key features
Emerald gear
Pickaxes, swords, axes and similar tools are added in emerald, giving a new material tier for early gear.
Variable items
A set of additional items with variable properties is included alongside the emerald tools.
Mod-only crafts
Some items are craftable only with Emerald and Things, so they have no vanilla recipe to fall back on.
