Moon and Sun
by Captain_CSS
Moon and Sun adds a new Sun dimension where Moonstone and Sunstone are found, giving survival progress past netherite.
What it does
The mod adds a new dimension, the Sun, with two new ores found there, Moonstone and Sunstone. The aim is to give players a further stage of progression once netherite gear is reached, so long-running survival worlds keep a goal to work toward. The author describes the dimension and ores as the main content, with the new progression built around them.
Players on a Fabric or NeoForge client and on the server both need the mod, since the environment is client and server. The mod is open source under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public. Files cover only Minecraft 1.21.8, and the latest builds are 0.4.0, published on 2026-01-14 on the beta channel. The first public release was published on 2026-01-12, after earlier betas.
