More Block Styles
by RedFlower
Players who want more stair, slab and wall variants for their builds can use More Block Styles, a Forge mod that adds new block types to existing ones.
What it does
The mod extends vanilla block families with new forms such as stairs, slabs and walls, and adds decorative sets like Mosaic Blocks, Deepslate Tile Blocks and mineral blocks. Several new stone choices, including Stone Brick, Blackstone, Granite, Diorite and Andesite, come with a full set of stairs, slabs and walls. Concrete blocks get a new brick form, and a Soul Soil variant is added to the Soul Sand Valleys biome in place of netherrack.
Most new stair and slab variants are crafted with a stonecutter, and wood types gain Mosaic styles with their own texture. A Carpenter Table villager profession is included. Beacons can use some of the new mineral blocks. The mod runs on Forge only, and both the server and every player need it, since the environment is client and server. Files exist for 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, with 1.0.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, released under the MIT License. It is not open source. Some textures are still marked beta and more blocks are planned, according to the author.
Key features

Stonecutter recipes
Stairs and slabs are cut at a stonecutter, and the new brick forms of concrete are crafted from four blocks in a 2x2 grid.
Mosaic and tile styles
Wood blocks gain a Mosaic style with a new texture, and Deepslate tile variants join the stone blocks of vanilla.
Mineral blocks for beacons
Blocks made of iron, gold, emerald, diamond and netherite are added, and some of them can power a beacon.
