Immersive Deepslate mod
by Benj1kus
Immersive Deepslate adds a Vanilla+ method for obtaining Reinforced Deepslate by melting and striking blocks instead of using a standard crafting recipe.
What it does
Reinforced Deepslate is obtained through a sequence of in-world steps rather than a crafting grid. A player places Deepslate Cobbled Deepslate with an empty block underneath it, then sets soul sand floor on fire and waits until the block melts. Pressing SHIFT and right-clicking the melted block while holding a bone completes the process, and the result is the reinforced block.
Smelting Reinforced Deepslate in a Blast Furnace yields a Sculk Catalyst, which links the mod to a later stage of progression. Obtaining Reinforced Deepslate also records an achievement and plays a distinct sound effect, so the step is recorded in the player's advancements. The mod is built for Forge and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for 1.20.1 only, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
