More Blocks Mod
by tvanprooyen
More Blocks Mod gives builders extra variants of vanilla blocks, such as terracotta brick blocks, petrified wood selections, slabs and stairs.
What it does
Players who build decorative structures can use the added block variants, including polished andesite, diorite, granite and blackstone brick tiles, vertical slabs and stairs. The additions are meant to extend the vanilla palette rather than replace it, and the author keeps adding variants as the project progresses.
The mod runs on Fabric for 1.16.5 and 1.17.1, with the latest file, 0.1.7-b for 1.17.1, dated 2021-09-06 on the beta channel. Both the server and every player need it, and it is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so the code is open source. Source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are linked from the project.
Key features
Polished brick tile blocks
Tile and brick variants of polished andesite, diorite, granite and blackstone are added to the decoration palette.
Vertical slab variants
Many slabs, including dark stone, dark cobblestone and cracked polished blackstone bricks, come in a vertical form for wall and facade work.
Slabs and stairs for brick tiles
Matching slabs and stairs are included for the polished andesite brick tile family, so the blocks fit into stepped and flat layouts.
Stripped oak framing
A stripped oak framing block adds a timber-style option to the set of building blocks.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Building with matching sets
Builders can use the added tiles, slabs and stairs together to keep a single material consistent across a whole build.
Who it’s for: Builders and decorators who want more variants of stone and brick blocks than vanilla offers. Survival players and creative builders can both use the additions.
How it compares
GvR's Stone Variants is a Fabric mod for 1.21.8 with the same client and server environment, but it is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. Bricks Plus is open source under CC0 1.0 Universal and covers 26.1.2 – 26.2 on Fabric, so it targets a much later game version. New Slab, Stairs and Walls is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is published for 1.19.2, which overlaps only with the older end of this mod's range.
