old formidi bomb
Old Formidi Bomb restores a classic early Story Mode-inspired bomb design for Minecraft 1.20.1 and later, with files for Fabric and Forge.
What it does
Old Formidi Bomb recreates the classic Formidi Bomb, one of the earliest fan recreations of that item. It keeps the original design rather than the updated versions introduced by newer Story Mode mods, and it is offered as a tribute to the older projects that inspired many later mods. The mod adds a custom crafting recipe for the bomb.
The mod is published for Fabric and Forge. Its files cover 1.20.1 and 26.1.2, with the Forge file at 1.0.0 for 1.20.1 and the Fabric file at 1.0.0 for 26.1.2. Only the client or the server needs it, and neither side requires it, so it can be installed on either or both. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
