NeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

Old-style block textures from earlier Minecraft releases are added as placeable blocks, so a world can use them without installing a resource pack that replaces the default look. The blocks can be shaped into other forms with a stonecutter, which allows old block designs to be recreated in a build.

The content also includes a fightable boss character and older-style equipment such as leather armor and a diamond sword, which the author describes as a nostalgic take on netherite. The mod needs a resource pack mod only where the author notes say it is used to simplify setup. Nostalgia Blocks runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1, with 1.5.5 as the latest file from 2024-12-30, and the code is under All rights reserved.

Nostalgia Blocks is listed under Mobs, with Adventure, Decoration, Equipment, Food, Storage and World generation also tagged.
