mardbeads
by xUAn1573
mardbeads brings the full official MARD fuse bead palette of 291 colors into Minecraft as decorative blocks, one block per color, for pixel art and virtual bead artwork.
What it does
Each of the 291 official MARD colors gets its own decorative block, with a solid-color texture that matches the corresponding MARD color. The blocks are grouped in dedicated Creative Mode tabs by MARD color series, and each block carries a localized name.
The mod adds no survival progression, crafting recipes or gameplay changes. Its blocks are meant for creative building and reference, and the textures are generated with the Forge Data Generator. The mod is licensed All rights reserved and is not open source. Files exist for Fabric and Forge across 6 release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, with the latest Fabric file for 1.21.5 and the latest Forge file for 1.21.11. Client and server both need it, so a server that uses the blocks must run the mod alongside every player.
