by retroad1

More and Better Tools adds vanilla-style tool tiers and a set of new tool, armor and item variants to the game.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21 – 26.3

What it does

The mod extends the tool progression with extra tiers modeled on the vanilla iron, golden, diamond and netherite materials, and adds Enderite items, including horse armor and nautilus armor. Installation needs Café Core and Fabric API on Fabric. Both the server and every player need the mod, because the environment is client and server. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.21 – 26.3, and the mod is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Tool tiers

    Tools and weapons come in vanilla-like tiers, with iron, golden, diamond and netherite variants added to the progression.

  2. Enderite items

    Enderite tools, horse armor and nautilus armor join the item set, along with a configurable void resistance mechanic.

  3. Café Core configuration

    Settings for the void resistance and the Enderite items are read through the shared Café Core configuration.
