FabricNeoForgeClient and serverMIT License26.1 – 26.3

What it does

Players who want emerald gear can craft a complete set of tools, weapons and armor made from emerald. The items are built to last longer than their vanilla emerald-tier counterparts, and the mod is written for Minecraft 26.1 and later. Fabric API must be installed alongside it on Fabric, while NeoForge needs nothing extra.

Both sides of a connection run the mod, so a server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge under the MIT License, covering 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3. The author notes the mod is optimized for 26.1 and above, and the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Emerald tool set

    Pickaxes, axes, shovels, hoes and swords made from emerald, with higher durability than vanilla emerald tools.

  2. Emerald armor

    A full armor set crafted from emerald, covering helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots.

  3. Emerald weapons

    Weapon items in the same material, so a fight does not need to switch back to iron or diamond.

  4. Crafting recipes

    Each item uses standard crafting recipes that draw on emerald, placed in the usual tool and armor grids.
