What it does

Melon blocks and items gain several new variants that can be made in the stonecutter and the brewing stand, so melon crafting goes further than the vanilla recipes. The author notes list the melons added and explain why the mod exists, and the recipes are easiest to follow with JEI open, which shows how each variant is put together.

Installation runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across five release versions, 1.19.4 – 1.20.4, and the latest file for each loader targets 1.20.4 or 1.19.4. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Stonecutter melon variants

    Melon items can be cut into new variants at a stonecutter, giving players another route to melon-based blocks.

  2. Brewing stand melon items

    Several melon-based results can be brewed at a brewing stand, expanding the use of melons in potion-style crafting.

  3. Melon list in the mod

    The mod lists the melon types it adds, so players can see what each variant is before crafting it.

  4. Recipes viewable in JEI

    Recipes for the added variants are shown in JEI, which helps players check the supplemental crafting steps.
