Nether Quartz Recipe
Nether Quartz Recipe lets players craft nether quartz themselves from one Block of Quartz, a recipe the vanilla game does not provide.
What it does
A recipe is added that turns a Block of Quartz back into nether quartz, so the material can be obtained without finding it in the Nether. The recipe is delivered as a data pack and works from Minecraft 1.13 onward. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and for data pack use on servers. The server must run the mod, while a player who joins without it can still craft the items.
Key features
Craftable nether quartz
Nether quartz can be made from a single Block of Quartz, without mining in the Nether.
Recipe-only change
The mod adds one crafting recipe and changes no blocks, mobs or world generation.
