Noticeably Beta 1.8
by Hindbodes
Noticeably Beta 1.8 is a ModLoader decoration and adventure mod that retunes the Beta release with new items, blocks and terrain tweaks.
What it does
Players who want a polished take on the b1.8.1 release can install Noticeably Beta 1.8. The mod adds more than 40 new blocks, a set of new items, a pair of new ores, and new armour types, along with several new palettes for building. It also edits some existing structures and applies graphical tweaks, such as making tall grass look less offensive.
The project is described by its author as a retro revision that keeps the feel of the early release while adding content and changing how terrain is generated. Snapshot builds are published alongside the release builds. The server and every player need the mod installed.
