Frosty and Snowy
by AlmerDiamond
Frosty and Snowy adds ice, calcite and willow blocks in chiseled, stair, slab and wall variants, built on the Fabric loader for Minecraft 1.20.4.
What it does
Players get a set of decorative blocks based on ice, calcite and willow wood. Each material comes with chiseled versions, stairs, slabs and walls, and the calcite line also includes bricks, polished calcite and cracked calcite bricks. Willow logs and planks have stripped variants as well, so builders can mix the new materials with vanilla ones in the same structure.
The author created the blocks following the design principles in Jeb's book Minecraft Gamedesign. The mod runs on client and server, so a multiplayer server and every player on it need it. It depends on Fabric API and is distributed under the MIT License as open source, with the source code publicly available. Only one file exists: version 1.0.0 for 1.20.4, first published and last updated on 2024-06-04.
Key features
Chiseled ice and calcite
Chiseled ice and chiseled calcite blocks add carved surface patterns to the decoration set.
Calcite stair, slab and wall sets
Calcite, calcite bricks and polished calcite each come with matching stairs, slabs and walls for building edges and trims.
Cracked calcite bricks
A cracked variant of calcite bricks gives weathered brickwork for ruins and older-looking builds.
Willow wood set
Willow logs and wood blocks have stripped versions, so the material can be used for both rough and finished surfaces.

Use cases

Stone and brick interiors
Calcite bricks, polished calcite and their stairs and slabs help build interiors with a pale stone look.
Who it’s for: Builders who want additional decorative materials for ice, calcite and willow wood, and server owners who want the same blocks available to every player on a Fabric 1.20.4 server.
