Opulence
by Pipsqueak737
With Opulence, the gold, diamond and emerald blocks gain decorative variants such as stairs, slabs, cut, chiseled and engraved forms, and pillars.
What it does
Opulence targets the valuable block set in vanilla Minecraft. Gold, diamond and emerald blocks each receive a range of decorative forms, including stairs, slabs, cut versions, engraved and chiseled variants, and pillars. The mod's own stairs and slabs are added alongside the vanilla blocks, so builders can mix them in the same structure.
The author describes the mod as aimed at players late in a survival world who already have plenty of these resources and want more decorative options to spend them on. The author notes that it may open new building possibilities, and the stated plan includes iron, copper and netherite blocks as well as lamp blocks made from ore. Opulence runs on Fabric and Forge and must be installed on both client and server, with the server and every player needing it. It is published for 1.18.2 only, with the latest files, version 0.1.2, dated 2022-11-13. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.
